No, I am waiting for photos of original ideas to market our Nationette.
As someone we all know could have said, this will last until I decide so, and reward is not defined yet.


I look forward then to seeing any other original ideas. Fora Talossa welcomes the reward, if no others join in.

Episode 3 to be posted on Reddit for marketing purposes later this month too...

Doesn't work for us, those who use day month as the short date format.
The proper short date format.

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
Talossan Music Top (various years numbers genres)

There is actually a spotify list of every regular edition tmt nomination: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6HlnZVMlpgAXNhzkqHg9gY
A YT Music playlist would be nice too, I don't have Spotify.
Seeking to possibly download it

Quote from: Breneir Tzaracomprada on March 08, 2026, 06:58:16 PMI am submitting Fora Talossa's new show, Abbavilla Digest, which is preparing its third episode this month. Posting has been regular on r/micronations and apparently has at least one non-Talossan viewer who mentioned liking it in a comment.

Quote from: Breneir Tzaracomprada on February 27, 2026, 05:03:53 PMWhat are some of your favorite lines from science fiction?
Here are some of mine:

Our lives are not our own, but by God, we must behave as if they are. When I was young, what I did seemed too small to be of any consequence; but the shiver of dust, we are told, expands in time to the planet-sweeping storm. -Greg Bear, Moving Mars

No matter what I said they insisted on thinking of God as something outside themselves. Something that yearns to take every indolent moron to His breast and comfort him. The notion that the effort has to be their own...and that the trouble they are in is all their own doing...is one that they can't or won't entertain. -Stranger in a Strange Land, Robert Heinlein

I am all that I grok. -Stranger in a Strange Land, Robert Heinlein

Humor is the ovum of dissent. -Cloud Atlas, David Mitchell

To be is to be perceived, and so to know thyself is only possible through the eyes of the other. The nature of our immortal lives is in the consequences of our words and deeds, that go on apportioning themselves throughout all time. Our lives are not our own. From womb to tomb we are bound to others, past and present. And by each crime and every kindness, we birth our future. -Cloud Atlas, David Mitchell

Look at the pattern this seashell makes. The dappled whorl, curving inward to infinity. That's the shape of the universe itself. There's a constant pressure, pushing toward pattern. A tendency in matter to evolve into ever more complex forms. It's a kind of pattern gravity, a holy greening power we call viriditas, and it is the driving force in the cosmos. Life, you see. -Green Mars, Kim Stanley Robinson

Remarkably, I just noticed that "our lives are not our own" commonality in the Cloud Atlas and Moving Mars quotes which I read over twenty years apart.



Bumping this as it would be interesting to see other responses.

That's amazing!  Some of my students can recite ten digits, and I already thought that was impressive, but 280 is absurd!

@xpb You have brought an unusual amount of activity to the Foreign Affairs Ministry. This should be celebrated.
