I wrote this October 1st 1:00pm. Did some Ugandan Coffee roasted by Proud Mary in my wife's pink Aeropress. Today is an Official holiday, our first Woman President took office. Anyway, this is what I wrote about how I feel about Talossa this very moment.


I consider it a great achievement for Talossa to transition to a new king.

Also, reducing the weight of government and increasing space for civil activity also sounds good at first glance. But there is a factor that I consider crucial, and that is that the Civil Service would be much better rewarded with the direct attention of the King.

Granting recognitions and making them accessible to everyone should be a goal of the State.

For me, Government work usually means working for free for everyone while some others make laws and others want to take advantage of your "mistakes" for their own benefit. I am not that interested in making laws and even less in taking advantage of others' mistakes so I really don't quite get that.

The conflict arises when the outside world pressures you. Personal conflicts, health issues, relationships, or simply having more than one job are some of them.
Is Talossa a job? Sometimes it feels like it.
I have a weakness, which is that I offer to do things when there are no other volunteers. This has led me to several conflicts in Talossa and in my life.

Talossa should not feel like a job but like a community.  All hard work should be shared. We should all do something for Talossa. We need common goals to feel that there is glory in our actions as a kingdom. What was the last thing that united all of us equally?

The current King might not leave "big shoes to fill", but he understood that he needed to get out of the way for the Kingdom to seek balance on its own. Without a doubt, the new King needs the support of the vast majority to achieve this as well.

Balance is on the horizon, and with that, for now, I think it's enough.

S:reu Excelsio,

I thought of you on Democracy Day this past week for several reasons. One, because I went to the national restaurant with a coffee cup in my cup holder, and two, because your country has achieved what I hope mine may also one day achieve - a woman president. Congratulations on that significant achievement!

As for the more hands-on approach to the civil service, as I've quite literally held all of the various offices in the civil service at one time or another, I have a particular affinity to those hard working Talossans. They will undoubtedly, like the rest of the kingdom, have my attention as king.

I am excited about the future and reminiscent about the past. Long live Talossa!

-Sir Txec

What do you think of President Claudia? I thought AMLO was pretty bad (one of those people who talks like a socialist but acts more like Trump), but perhaps his successor will be better?

This is something I'd very gladly support, so Thank you, Sir Txec :)

Claudia Sheinbaum is perceived by the public as AMLO's Yes-woman since 2006.  The whole party is like the old PRI with a new face, I think they will last a few more decades.

October 21st.
Today and tomorrow are free-days at Work because they're not willing to pay me all those extra hours and they prefer to give me two free days. So I'm enjoying a new PC while sipping on the same ugandan coffee from 20 days ago in a very cute Hello Kitty cup from my wife. Now, Talossa.


The past few days we've been having an awful antisocial individual, honestly one of the 5 worst persons I've even interacted to in my whole life, bullying most of talossan political actors.


 
The energy emanating from Wittenberg is dreadful and I honestly don't feel any good coming in and trying to catch up. Truth is if you haven't been bullied is because you haven't been active in the political sphere because you're too tired to get into the madhouse Wittenberg is right now.

I remember this person saying "it's good that you share a picture of you because sometimes we forget we're dealing with other humans" or something along those lines. But when that person starts commenting on the physical appearance of others, you know that, as literally everything that person has ever said, was a ill-willed.

The fact that we as a nation cannot do anything to counter these actions makes me wonder what is even possible.

I know we're in times of change. And today is a huge day in Talossan History. I wish all the luck to Sir Txec and urge him to take a stand for good willed Talossans.

And finally, I will go and say that the selection of Chancery deputies is fine. Ian and Luc are both people with great regard for the law, who are active and I wish them both the very best. Sir Txec has been great and I think we all are thankful for that. We wish the best of luck for future SoS and deputies.


I have not spoken before because I feel the affected should spoke up first.
I've been told I'm "taking this too far", but when someone completely disregards other people's feelings and social norms, and threatens government officials with "I informe you I won't stop", you know you're dealing with something else.

Any prospective citizens who may be passing by will avoid Talossa as the pest if things remain this way.
COFFEE will join any effort to stop this states of affairs.

I think we start with honest discourse when we actually NAME the individual we are speaking poorly on, Braneu. Hi, I think you are talking about me...the person you have called a "sociopathic manipulator" and now an "anti-social individual."

I think it is important to note it is you who have been calling me names, Braneu.

When do you take responsibility for your behavior?

As another example, I didn't see you in line to criticize Miestra when she called me "creepy-crust." Please save your selective outrage.

I totally agree with your assessment, the rampant cyber tribalism is so rife however that anyone who ever is like "hey yall can we calm it down a bit" get told "your just trying to shut us up and oppress us for our views"

To be clear, I have edited my post to point out the part I'm agreeing with
