Still working on other projects, but my recommendation is For in the General Assembly. I agree with the arguments presented in the repeal -- that the language prevents the survivability of a species, even if the species is invasive and harmful to biodiversity within a given area. I, further, feel that territory outside of member nations' lands and seas are outside the scope and jurisdiction of the WA and voted against the target when it was passing three years ago on the grounds that it boarders the metagaming rule (legislating on non-members) and presents a risky precedent for overreach.

I have no opinion on the upcoming SC vote, as I do not know the named party, but I am interested in hearing the opinions of other Refugi on the matter.

Magically generated coal (naughty list) is carbon sequestration. Major CO2/methane production puts you on the naughty list. Plus you miss out on all those methane sequestration toys and goodies.

I thought it was implied santa mines coal, meaning it'd be a form of carbon release

Y'know, it doesn't need to be done by the Councillor of Culture. We could just figure it out on our own and make an unofficial event.

Or we could integrate it into our Councillor of Culture campaigns.

Anyways, is Estie my new nickname?

I prefer Pawn G3/G6 once they bring their queen out, as my e pawn is normally already out by then.

No clue why, but I always go for the Indian opening, cause almost every game I normally like to get the last row empty (exept for the king and rooks) to make castling easier.

It's a bad idea for me to always do that, I know.

Might be cool if it didn't turn into a game-stats leader board advantage. I'd just quit if I thought other players were paying to win.

Otherwise, paying just to answer the same issues more frequently doesn't appeal to me.

I find it interesting we've been on the site the same amount of time cause my immediate thought was "I've seen most issues twice by now", it'd be kind of boring. I would have agreed with you up to probably about 1bn population, but for me at this point the community stuff is most fun and the stats/cards are just a cool side thing.

Trader Joe's Cookie Butter in Hawaiian Buns is a combination of words and foods so American that I (an Irish person) am unable to judge whether that is heathen but legal, or an abomination.

I had my very first PB&J of my life 2 weeks ago and it was alright, but a strange combination to me. Canned pumpkin is also a very American feeling item but seems like it might be easier to get around here in autumn. I'll have to try it if I remember to look for some in a few months!

Interesting, ketchup is a pretty common way to encourage little kids to eat vegetables here.

a) I tried many weird, strange or maybe even gross food combos, and wiener sausages on a pancake with mayonnaise was one of the better ones.

b) Depends on the type of ketchup; there’s definitely spicy ketchup out there; though I prefer the classic all-red, non-spicy ketchup.

Yeah I was agreed with you on point b, but apparently regular degular ketchup is spicy? Maybe just in the USA?

Pancakes with mayo and sausage sounds interesting. Like a weird but delicious take on a galette.

Tiralta wrote:Any particular type of eggs? I might have to try that one sometime.

Usually fried eggs with toast! But sometimes scrambled eggs or boiled eggs that are still runny in the middle. I also put ketchup on scrambled eggs and tomato sauce on fried ones (not at the same time as the marmite).

Tiralta wrote:Which reminds me. Chacapoya and I were chatting yesterday and she said ketchup is spicy. I maintain it is not. Where do you stand on this matter?

Regular ketchup is not spicy to me. I think it’s very sweet so sometimes I mix in cayenne pepper, soy sauce, and/or extra vinegar. But when I was in Ireland (a week ago) the ketchup tasted exactly the same as the American sort. I also noticed that the Irish will never cook a burger less than well done. I ask for medium rare and they say sure but give me well done anyway lol.

Ketchup on scrambled eggs is the best. I'll have to get some marmite to try with it too.

[spoiler] As an Indian I do weird combinations with Indian food for eg- eat chapatti with rice and also throw an omelette in it. Also, if I get chapatti and sabzi for dinner I make a burrito by throwing the chapatti with any sabzi and rolling it .also, try to make a taco out of that...(don't know why I play with food so much).

I should have known canned pumpkin was an American thing. Ah well. I actually like it quite a bit, and often just eat it as a side. There's not much flavor, really, just refreshing and sloppy.

Honestly, PB&J sandwiches are mostly for kids, and for when you don't have any groceries or time to make a meal. "It was alright" is the correct response to eating one. But it comes up as a last resort meal enough times that I like to tell folks about alternate spreads.

Hello! I'm Dutchformosa. I wanted to join this region, but decided against it when I found a different one. But, I wanted to be able to communicate with this one in some way. So, that's why we founded the FFE (Formosan Foreign Envoy) to make us able to talk to people of other regions that don't have embassies with us. Hopefully we aren't a nuisance! But either way, hopefully this won't be the last time I get to talk here. So, yeah that's about it. Take care!

Sylh Alanor,

Now that the delegacy is securely passed on, I'll just take the moment to thank you for all the work you've done over the course of your four and a half years in Refugia. From the nine Councillor terms you've filled, your 50+ dispatches, lightning fast endotarting, vast help with card farming and running events, your religious attentiveness on hitting almost every World Assembly vote (usually being one of the first in the world every time), dealing with countless crises and trolls, sending tens of thousands of recruitment telegrams, and establishing some of our most valued embassies.

You are understandably owed a break, and Refugia understandably owes you a debt for all that you have done to grow and protect this community. You are a true Refugi in every sense and I know that myself and those who have lived in this community past and present have been made better off because of your hard work. So, very much thank you for that.

I also have great confidence that the region will remain in safe hands with Typica, who has also been a great positive to the community, tremendous stats player, insightful conversationalist and all around great to be around. I am eager to see what he will do and in what directions he will decide to go in this position.

Yeah, I think I agree. Though as far as I can tell, a "mission" by their definition is essentially an official delegacy of state representatives? There's a lot of ways to stretch the definition if you're uncharitable, but none are too troubling (like, if a temporary presidential delegation is also considered a mission, most requirements are on the home state rather than the mission).

I'd probably send it for a redraft, but it provides a lot of niche yet powerful rights for migrants. Worth a vote for, I think.

Idk what you mean by normal, sweet breakfast pancake though you gotta keep in mind those oancakes I eat aren’t done the American way with yeast, lots of butter, etc; they’re done European style, or rather German style, very flat and thin, almost like the French crêpes, and usually are quite neutral, so you could eat anything with them, savoury or sweet, that is, given, of course, they aren’t apple or banana pancakes.

Then, as for the sausages, they are traditional Wiener sausages, which, btw, are called Frankfurter in Vienna itself, and they always have a skin, as do many other German and European sausages for boiling. They are about 20 centimetres long, usually about thumb-thick.

There’s also cocktail sausages, which are way smaller and I think those are the ones you mean though they’re not common here.

The real MVP is the mayonnaise though, a nice egg-containing emulsion, with mustard seeds and sunflower oil. Delicious, delicious mayonnaise!-Bless the French, or the Spanish, or rather the Catalans actually!

Tiralta wrote:Yeah I was agreed with you on point b, but apparently regular degular ketchup is spicy? Maybe just in the USA?

Pancakes with mayo and sausage sounds interesting. Like a weird but delicious take on a galette.

Regular ketchup?-Well, you may not be used to the taste of tomatoes, yes, but that usually doesn’t make it spicy!-Idk what would make it spicy unless it’s specifically curry or otherwise spicy ketchup.

Also, what is a galette?-Something French the British assimilated?

Also, in theory, ketchup may also work instead of mayo, though mayo tastes better in that combo on a pancake.

Alright, thanks for explaining further. I had a much different idea of what you were describing (probably due to my amerocentrism). If I just flip the switch from 'sweet' to 'savory' in my mind, it becomes much more clear. Because I was definitely picturing cocktail sausages and a big ole thick flapjack, probably doused in maple syrup or corn syrup or some such sweet dressing. But a savory crepes wrapped around a sausage sounds pretty good. And I've seen a nice tangy mayo work on a hamburger, so it doesn't seem so strange on a sausage.

By the by, this discussion has led me to two understandings: First, if Wikipedia is to be believed, the terms 'pankcake' and 'flapjack' mean a lot of different things around the world. And second, the shared etymology of Weiner-Wein-Vienna. That had never occurred to me, but it's pretty neat.
