Quote from: Sir Ian Plätschisch on Yesterday at 06:05:14 PMAs is my custom when I complain about your preoccupation with BHAID, I have made a donation, this time to the Anglican Relief and Development Fund for flooding relief in Nepal.

As someone once told me...you're a good egg. Please complain more if it means donating to good causes, Ian. Thank you for your donation to the Anglican Relief and Development Fund.

The BHAID is usually allotted government funding to make donations as well. I view that activity as the government leading by example which increases the willingness and therefore likelihood of general Talossan giving. Considering the obvious need I don't think that is a bad thing.

It is also notable that Talossa is likely one of the few micronations in the world to do this kind of thing. I am as a Talossa proud of that fact, of my part in helping it come to be, and for the good example this is for other micronations.

Serious question, what exactly do you imagine the BHAID can accomplish other than just prodding people to donate their own private funds? Not that that's bad (depending on where it's going), but you seem to have a more grandiose idea of it.

As is my custom when I complain about your preoccupation with BHAID, I have made a donation, this time to the Anglican Relief and Development Fund for flooding relief in Nepal.

I LOVE the soundtrack of Earthbound. I haven't ever heard any other music like it, which is sad...

That's such a good game, not least because of how it exists as a kindly-meant Japanese parody of America at the time.  I remember playing it for hours -- a long time ago!  How did you hear about it?

Tomorrow in the discord: TMT 20 broadcast. The full top 20, voted on by the Talossan public (You can still vote!) on election night, right before the general election deadline, along with maybe election predictions/turnout reports(?)/exit polls(?)/general discussion?

Between 14:30 and 16:30 TDT (21:30-23:30 CEST).

Be there

I've extended the deadline by 2 hours to 14:00 TDT / 21:00 CEST tomorrow. Should have enough time to process still.

That means 25 hours left to vote!

The Top 20 will be broadcast on discord roughly between 14:30 and 16:30 TDT (21:30-23:30) tomorrow with the GE results in 30 minutes after that.

Well, for me, on one hand I can now only pretty much hope I can preserve my lead in the season standings. Unless one of the GC riders I don't own drops off massively, pretty sure five teams are better placed than me in the long run; it's hard to see how BDC loses this without Mas or Onley crashing out.

On the other hand, now that there is no unbeatable star rider, stage 9 was a nailbiter. Not gonna lie, it's gonna be pretty exciting to see what happens in the rest of the Vuelta.

Wherever this message finds you, I hope you are well, my friend. There
are just a couple days left to vote and I ask for your support of the
Green Party. In our messages to you we have spoken of our desire for
more cooperation, respect, and a positive vision for the future of the
Kingdom. We do not seek to make enemies or monsters of anyone because
we know much can be done when Talossa is united. As someone who is
still somewhat new around here I have tried to observe more than I
speak so I can say, based on evidence, if you are wondering just what
is the difference between the Green Party and other parties, watch
their actions and take note of their words. If someone is not
respectful or supportive of a kinder Talossa then please have the
courage to speak up. I call this being an upstander. I do this at home
and at work and pledge to do it in Talossa. Please be an upstander,
with me, for a Talossa that respects all and allows for peace and
personal and community growth.

We plan to be a party of upstanders. If you want to be a part of that
effort please vote on Wittenberg at
https://wittenberg.talossa.com/index.php?topic=5436.0 or on the
Database at https://database.talossa.com
