Quote from: Tierçéu Rôibeardescù on February 25, 2026, 07:40:29 PMHowever the Spotify idea would help get a idea of the music the station would play?

@Glüc and @Sir Ian should have data from TMT

Quote from: Baron Alexandreu Davinescu on Today at 04:46:12 PMI'd be happy to explain myself, but I think you know why people like me are reluctant to follow your leadership in the Ziu and other contexts: you sexually harassed another citizen.

I'm not willing to vote against the moral stand you propose for our country, but I feel generally uncomfortable endorsing your perspective on ethical questions.  The safety of our citizens has to be my first priority, and it feels weird pretending that you've never hurt others.  So I'm abstaining.

I think it is weird to claim someone is pretending they did not cause harm while also claiming that the apologies they made which acknowledge that harm are insufficient because I reject the accusation of sexual harassment.

I am grateful, however, that you directly link your abstention on this moral/ethical question with a boycott that seeks to drive me out of public life.

Quote from: Breneir Tzaracomprada on February 06, 2026, 11:47:10 PM@Sir Lüc Mr. Secretary, would you please move this to the CRL for consideration?

@Antaglha Xhenerös Somelieir Congratulations on your appointment as the Humanitarian Aid PermSec. I wanted to ask whether the recipient mentioned in this resolution might be an organization you would recommend to the Government?

Quote from: Baron Alexandreu Davinescu on Today at 02:12:20 PMAs to 62RZ16, BHAID: Humanitarian Assistance to Sudan Resolution, I vote contra.  At the urging of the bill's sponsor, the government has recently appointed someone to make themselves an expert in humanitarian aid and recommend how we should distribute the funds, and I don't want to immediately undermine her.

Nearly three weeks ago, before moving forward with this bill for Clarking, I asked this very question to the new PermSec for Humanitarian Aid.

I received no response.

@Antaglha Xhenerös Somelieir I had sincerely hoped that after some review you would find the organization and the cause worthy of support. Hopefully with some more time you will be able to advise the Seneschal so that his concerns about undermining you can be assuaged.

Florencia / Re: Florencian Constitutional ...
Last post by Breneir Tzaracomprada - Today at 03:48:39 PM
Quote from: Mic'haglh Autófil, O.Be on Today at 03:01:23 PMBecause I am trying to wait for S:reu Carbonel's input, as previously noted.

Please remember that I am trying to remain relatively hands-off in this process other than administrative functions, due to my not being a Florencian. A lot of "political questions" are things I am going to try and keep myself as uninvolved in as possible as a matter of propriety and respect for the local democratic will. As a result, in my view we are only properly, ethically quorate when both of you are present.

That said, in the interest of keeping things moving, here's what I propose: let's give @mximo until Wednesday (4 March) to provide input. Whether or not he has done so by then, I will put out some sort of agenda that evening. In the meantime, what I will ask you to do is put forward any specific recommendations on the sections you identified above.
Quote from: Breneir Tzaracomprada on February 22, 2026, 03:47:13 PMYes, as I have stated before I think we should amend the constitution in whole (moving toward a system with elements from Fiova, Belacosta, and Vuode) but if we decide to restrict ourselves to spot amendments then we should certainly work on reforms to Article III (Government) and Article IV (Legislation). Recent experience shows critical need for reforms specifically to Sections 6 through 9 of Article III.



Done, a few days ago, I proposed that those be areas for review but am not yet ready to submit specific proposals especially before you've even set an agenda.
In a few more days I will look forward to *some kind of contribution* from either you or the other member of this Committee.

Based on the frequency of his posts I am skeptical.

As someone who has worked in solidarity with the Syrian people for a decade in their civil war against the butchering dictator Bashar al-Assad, who was propped up all along the way by the "Islamic" "Republic" of Iran, I'm certainly shedding no tears for the 86 year old head of the theocracy going to meet his Maker.

But this isn't even "regime change". This is vandalism. A regime change strike would attempt to maximise the possibility for an opposition to the regime to change over. But the US strike actually killed former President Ahmedinejad, and is *rumoured* to have eliminated current president Pezeshkian and former president Rouhani - all "dissidents" who could have led a challenge to the theocracy. This is killing for the sake of killing and can't be defended even if you hate the "I""R"I with a passion, as many have a right to.

The wildest people around the Israeli government are now saying they're going to do the same to the president of Turkey next (who, while a creep, has at least as much democratic legitimacy as either Trump or Netanyahu do). This cannot stand.
