Also not a councillor but probably worth halting this discussion and not continuing as we do have a lot of minors in Refugia and I'm also pretty sure that discussion is against sitewide rules.

A councillor. Let's not, and I'd advise removing the quotes! How's everyone doing?
Chacapoya, Typica, Sylh Alanor, Melenavenia, Araine, Tiralta, Jazur, Tuluni, The Blue Fire, Imperial Tea Empire, Ban Oldern
I'm good! Sad cause I have to fly home today after visiting my best friend but it's been a good time. How are you Nak?
Chacapoya, Typica, Sylh Alanor, Melenavenia, Araine, Jazur, Tuluni, The Blue Fire, Imperial Tea Empire, Ban Oldern
I also favor into being cautious with our wording. If we do have a lot of minors in the region it should be us adults that make sure we don't go down the path of influencing them in bad ways.
Tuluni, Ban Oldern, Oakgall
I personally believe sexual and violent content isnt nearly as bad as right-wing political agendas. Its one thing if a minor watches porn. Its another if they read a social media post that says Hitler was right.

Back to uni after a week of no classes today. My horror fiction class has moved on from short stories to movies, which I'm not as big a fan of (I'm historically terrible with horror movies) so that's sad, but otherwise it's still fun. How are you?

when does it go from a cult to a religion?
obligatory :3 included
Jazur, Tuluni, The Blue Fire, Silliy
when enough people believe in it that it'd be rude to call it a cult :3

Check my forum sig... I'm NOT A CULTIST!

Anyways, friends - I'm here again with another Question, I really enjoy these because we get to know a bit about eachother:3 Anyways here it is:
What's your favorite movie or series?
Well, I really like this movie called "Matilda", really recommend watching it. Though, I won't spoil it of course. But, it's about a girl named Matilda obviously. Who basically learned how to take care of herself in short age, very clever and never understood by her parents. She gets a happy ending, though^^
Chacapoya, Typica, Araine, Imsalia, Portmanteau, Tuluni, The Blue Fire
Huh, a bit off topic, but I didnt even realize that fire hydrants differ between countries
Tuluni, The Blue Fire, Monkely, Oakgall
what exactly do you mean by "series"
Tuluni, Myalend
also i quite liked LOTR... it was pretty good! :3
Portmanteau, Tuluni, The Blue Fire, Myalend
By series, I mean like seasons coming one after another. Y'know season 1, 2, 3 and etc. Or a specific genre.
Not a good explainer, sorry-v-; but I hope, I did help out a bit.
Tuluni, The Blue Fire
I prefer books to tv and movies so I dont watch them very often, but my favorites are How to Train Your Dragon and Hilda. Theyre both for kids and Im an adult but occasionally its nice to watch something warm and nostalgic.
Typica, Imsalia, Portmanteau, Jazur, Tuluni, The Blue Fire, Dutchformosa, Oakgall, Myalend
Real.
Portmanteau, Jazur, Tuluni, The Blue Fire, Myalend
I guess my favourite tv series would be the first seven series of Stargate SG-1, but honestly I don't watch almost any tv, so who knows. Favourite movie uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, I don't like a lot of movies, but I really liked Knives Out, so maybe that counts.
What's your favourite book series :D
I'm going to cheat on my own question, because I have to list a few, but if I narrow it down to one series, it will have to be the Terra Ignota series by Ada Palmer. It was excellent. It might not be everyone's cup of tea though, because it's written in the first-person confessional style of 18th-century literature and has the most long-reach insane references to strange types of philosophy, history, and even Greek mythology. I was never super up on any of those things, but I found the story to be well-written enough that I didn't have to get every reference (or probably even most of them) and I still enjoyed it a lot.
I'd also recommend the Book of the New Sun (Gene Wolfe), Teixcalaan (Arkady Martine), and Black Company (Glenn Cook) in descending order after Terra Ignota.
Chacapoya, Cheesy Tots, Typica, Araine, Portmanteau, Tuluni, The Blue Fire, Oakgall, Myalend
I could never pick a favorite but the best thing Ive read recently is The Priory of the Orange Tree by Samantha Shannon. I also read her standalone prequel, A Day Of Fallen Night, which was good but not better than Priory. Im currently in the middle of Babel, or the Necessity of Violence by R. F. Kuang and This Is How You Lose the Time War by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone. I am enjoying both of them so far! I will check out your suggestions Terra Ignota sounds very interesting.
Chacapoya, Typica, Sylh Alanor, Portmanteau, Tuluni, The Blue Fire, Oakgall, Myalend
In terms of movies, Your Name is absolutely my favorite, but it terms of series it's either Avatar or Voltron.
Thank you for unintentionally reminding me that I really need to watch Hilda again(Still haven't seen the new season).
Araine, Portmanteau, Tuluni, The Blue Fire, Myalend
My favourite movie is hands down Everything Everywhere All At Once. It's a fun film, but I find every time I watch it I have more and more thoughts and notice new things about it. Plus it's how my best friend and I first started talking to each other more so it's a sentimental one for me.
My favourite books are Gideon the Ninth or Howl's Moving Castle. I also really enjoyed This Is How You Lose The Time War recently.
Chacapoya, Cheesy Tots, Typica, Sylh Alanor, Araine, Portmanteau, Tuluni, The Blue Fire, Diamontia, Myalend
While my favorite movie is The Princess Bride, I think the movie that means the most to me in the world is Everything Everywhere All At Once. Its a fantastic movie and one that changed my life because of who I recommended it to.
Typica, Araine, Portmanteau, Tiralta, Tuluni, The Blue Fire, Diamontia, Myalend
That's so cute, on what you said of it being sentimental. That really touched me. Bestfriends really do help you:)

Because of this moment, I have cupcakes for all:

Chacapoya, Typica, Araine, Portmanteau, Tiralta, Tuluni, The Blue Fire, Dutchformosa, Silliy, Pantumaca, Oakgall
My favourite movie is The Arrival, which is absolutely beautiful. But I really love Everything Everywhere All At Once, the spider verse movies and Your Name.
On series it would be Kipo, RWBY and Lie to Me. Oh and Higurashi no naku koro ni if anime counts
Chacapoya, Typica, Araine, Portmanteau, Tiralta, Tuluni, The Blue Fire, Myalend
I considered saying Arrival! ... oh god unless that's a different movie just with a similar name.
Chacapoya, Typica, Araine, Portmanteau, Tiralta, Tuluni, The Blue Fire, Diamontia, Myalend
Oooh, Kipo! Good choice, one of the best.
Edit: I read this again and realized you mentioned the Spiderverse trilogy. You have good taste.
Portmanteau, Tiralta, Tuluni, The Blue Fire, Diamontia
I love half of these movies and don't know the rest, might have to check them out
Portmanteau, Tiralta, Tuluni, The Blue Fire, Diamontia, Myalend
If heptapode rings a bell, that's the movie! It has a different title in France unfortunately so not sure about the "The" being there or not. Title was translated to "First Contact" (but the French words) over here..
.
They have very different vibes so you might not like them all but they're all masterpieces!
Typica, Portmanteau, Tiralta, Tuluni, The Blue Fire, Myalend
I'm on the same page, lol. This is why I love asking these questions, you learn new stuff every day.

Too late youre a part of the :3 cult now
Tuluni, The Blue Fire
Right now I am really into Lego Monkie Kid! One of my friends invited a few other people and me to a D&D group, and one of them got me into it. It's a kid series based off of the Journey to The West books (Chinese mythology). The animation is beautiful, and the characters are fun to watch (especially when they get traumatized!). I would 100% recommend it for anyone who likes Lego Ninjago, as I've heard they're very similar.

Refugia read my above msg idk just thought that I can do something with it pls elaborate the thingy
Tuluni, Oakgall
I don't think influence does a lot if you're just a regular resident. I'm pretty sure it mostly just protects from raiders.

on one of my issues there was 3 results but 2 options witch i think is a glitch so now my tariffs have been abolished

Hilda is the best!

Babel is so good, except I was disappointed in the ending. Total scandal about the Hugo Awards too!

I think I need a break from NS. Having to check in every day is stressing me out
Delta Vega Iv, Typica, Narwhal, Portmanteau, Tuluni, The Blue Fire, Silliy, Oakgall
it's ok to forget about NS for some time. Just make sure you know your password in case you accidentally CTE.
Delta Vega Iv, Portmanteau, Tuluni, The Blue Fire, Dutchformosa, Oakgall
You don't have to check in everyday, your nation exists for 28 days without checking in. But taking a break is absolutely fine! You can go to your settings and activate vacation mode, which keeps your nation alive for 90 days without you needing to check in.
I hope you feel better soon
Delta Vega Iv, Chacapoya, Typica, Narwhal, Araine, Portmanteau, Tiralta, Tuluni, The Blue Fire, Dutchformosa, Pantumaca, Oakgall
Matilda is very sweet. Though I'll never be able to forget that scene of that poor kid eating all of that cake...
"Indeed."

I watched that show so much, it was basically an after-school staple. Looking back, it really crystalized the idea of a portal between worlds in my imagination.
Farscape was another early love of mine, though I found the story to be sometimes more confusing.

42 notifications is alot, y'all! Thank you for the endorsements. And, I'm really glad to see all this acitivity^-^
Here's our new question: What country would you like to visit?
So for me, it would be Spain, I don't know what abour spain catches my eye. But, I really want to go there. I'm just fascinated with Spanish Culture. Definitely on my bucket list. Another country, I'd like to visit again would be El salvador - This country is beautiful. Like it really is, the beaches, the safety, the people oh and the pupusas (National dish) so good.
Delta Vega Iv, Typica, Narwhal, Araine, Tiralta, The Blue Fire, Lanassia, Silliy, Pantumaca, Ban Oldern, Oakgall, Diamontia
Definitely one of the nordic countries. I would love to see the big mountains.

Chacapoya, Ban Oldern
If they aren't going to do anything but sit in the region, they might be considered sleepers under RRS 1(a). If they're reported to the Ops Councillor, you're allowed to have them in the region.
Delta Vega Iv, Chacapoya, Typica, Sylh Alanor, Araine, Tiralta, The Blue Fire, Ban Oldern
you just gotta make the councillor of operations aware afaik
Chacapoya, Tiralta
ok then nvm cus i dont really need my puppets in the region.

New zealand, probably cuz its very beautiful and speaks english (also being a 1st world country helps, cuz i already live in brazil :3)
Delta Vega Iv, Tiralta, The Blue Fire, Lanassia, Oakgall, Diamontia
That's exactly what I was going to say! I have a list of "potential places to live" based on language, culture and politics. So far I've visited Ireland, Canada, I only need to go to New Zealand next to complete my list!
Delta Vega Iv, Tiralta, The Blue Fire, Sinzalia, Oakgall
thank you :3 i been in the discord for quite some time now very nice
Tiralta, Oakgall
I'm not much of a traveller anymore except going where friends live, but going to see my cousin in the Netherlands is next on my list.
Delta Vega Iv, Chacapoya, Araine, The Blue Fire, Oakgall, Myalend
I'd like to visit New York City, Lakewood NJ, and the Netherlands. I have family in the first 2 and a friend in the 3rd.
Araine, Tiralta, The Blue Fire, Aseanindia, Oakgall, Myalend
mmm... I dunno, what country has the most furries?
The Blue Fire, Aseanindia, Oakgall, Myalend
The U.S., Germany, or the U.K. probably
Tiralta, The Blue Fire, Silliy, Oakgall, Myalend
United Kingdom, Ireland, Germany, Palestine, and Russia...
Tiralta, Oakgall, Myalend
Deutschland it is then.
The Blue Fire, Oakgall, Myalend
fair enough, nice people, good food, simple language, the complete opposite of England!
The Blue Fire, Sinzalia, Oakgall, Myalend
Like, total? Probably the US. But Germany definitely has a higher density of furries, and the UK might as well.
The Blue Fire, Oakgall, Myalend
Huh, I didn't know that.
Another pro for learning German :3
Silliy, Oakgall
New Zealand!
Typica, Tiralta, The Blue Fire, Lanassia, Sinzalia, Oakgall, Myalend
For the longest time I would say Norway, and I still would love to visit, but right now I really wanna go to the UK and visit my friends there
Typica, Araine, Tiralta, The Blue Fire, Oakgall, Myalend
Du lernst Deutsch?
The Blue Fire
Ja, für zwei Jahre aber ich kenne nicht viel.
also i still don't know exactly when and when not to put commas :(
New Zealand and Australia for sure. They are both pretty unique when it comes to their environment and they are simply beautiful. Just the thought of hiking in New Zealand and going for a swim at an Australian beach is mesmerizing.
Araine, Tiralta, The Blue Fire, Oakgall, Myalend
My grandfather was Swedish and I still have lots of relatives there, so we were planning to go to Sweden... then Covid happened and we moved to a more expensive place, so that is on hold :/ But I'm on over 1,000 days of Duolingo Swedish so ... Gå mig :)
Also I'd like to go to Poland, Germany, and the Netherlands to see where my ancestors lived before and during the Holocaust. And Yucatan or Oaxaca for the beautiful environment and amazing history and food. And pretty much anywhere in East Asia, Morocco, Italy (ho studiato l'italiano per tre anni all'università)... I can't narrow it down by much TBH
Araine, Tiralta, The Blue Fire, Myalend
1,000 days on Duolingo, oh my god. I could never, I mean - if I put the effort. My streaks are always short lol. Trying to learn french. But anyways here is the next question:
If you could sit next to a famous celebrity in a restaurant, who would it be? I would choose Jackie Chan, I enjoy his movies. Would Love to meet him:) Seems like a nice guy.

Yes! I would not enjoy the 93.9% tax rate, compulsory vegetarianism, or video game ban, but itd be miles better than where I live right now.
Chacapoya, Tiralta, The Blue Fire, Lanassia
In a heartbeat, we may take away most of your income but it'll still be better than the U.S.
We're also as nice as Canada and Environment focused as the rest of ya'll.
