The debut issue of La Tascaragnă Nouă

Awesome first issue. And I look forward to contributing should the chance be there. Also, in reference to your political cartoon...I would like a beer too.

[Miestră Schivă, UrN]

I heartily endorse both the rebirth of the independent Talossan press, and the introduction of Polandball into Talossan culture.

Vuode cannot into space

And thus, a meme was localized  ;D

[Miestră Schivă, UrN]

I'm aware that there are Micronationball communities out there, but Talossa has been disconnected from the micronational world for so long that they barely mention us. I remember seeing Kingdomball and Republicball once.

[Baron Alexandreu Davinescu]

Love it. I should email my old cartoonists and see if any of them are interested in contributing.

[Miestră Schivă, UrN]

Not the creepy guy who did those Islamophobic cartoons I hope

I don't remember any Islamophobic cartoons, and a quick search on old Witt didn't turn up any use of the term (or Islamophobe, islamophobia, etc).  The only unethical thing I remember is that "Eric S. Mildew" once faked a cartoon exchange to get me to publish something I wouldn't have otherwise done, and I fired him for it.  It's possible that someone published an Islamophobic cartoon and you just never said anything, I guess, although it seems more likely you're just misremembering.  I haven't read the back issues in years, though.

[Miestră Schivă, UrN]

No, Mildew deliberately used my religious faith to attack me at one point

[Baron Alexandreu Davinescu]

Can you tell me which one?  I think this page shows all of them: http://www.berichttalossan.com/search/label/ESM

Was it after I cut him loose with issue #26?

[Miestră Schivă, UrN]

The one which directly references the Prophet of Islam, of course

The one published in our Charlie Hebdo edition, after a bunch of journalists were murdered for publishing a picture of Muhammad?

[Miestră Schivă, UrN]

Yes, the one associating me with the CH terrorists.

Don't play dumb, AD. I told you over and over again at the time that religious bigotry was one of the motivations for Rough Music.

I see you saying that there, but I honestly don't remember this being any kind of problem, since I thought you were harassing me just because you were the target of criticism from my cartoonists, not because of that.  Looking at the issue now, I guess I'm not understanding how it's a reference to you even now.

I guess that connection would make sense if you were threatening people, but I don't remember you ever doing so.

EDIT: I just reread that thread you linked.  Ugh.  I'm done with this conversation.  Can't risk you starting that up again.  I apologize for mentioning anything about cartoons, I withdraw my offer, I'm sorry, and never mind

[Miestră Schivă, UrN]

I have better things to do than retraumatise myself by actually re-reading the Mildew cartoons (any more than I'd want to re-read what Mad Ben wrote about me in Ár Päts) but you yourself preserved the following quotes from me:

The "terrorist" jibe in this issue, added to the "Muslim" jibe from last week, really seems to add up to a theme... the coward Mildew accuses ZRT leaders of terrorism. o.O No, I don´t think the verb "terrorise" was chosen by accident.

That is what I really felt at the time and that was why Rough Music happened. It wasn't just "Miestra can't handle criticism", but you still can't accept that from me after 7 years, it seems.

One thing that I'd take back is that clearly you weren't Mildew. It is now much more realistic to me that you really didn't know his identity, since I never learned the real identity of "Greg Glodoral" - I had my suspicions but the person I suggested point blank denied it. If I were to hazard a guess (given the general political reactionary tone as well as the personalised, seething hatred of yours truly), it would either be I. Ventrutx, T. Betinéir or BenArd, not that it matters much now.
