Atealia, for reference, the guy who ran against Reagan for his second term was called Michael Dukakis, since I heard you mention it on the Podcast.
And yeah, he was a useless twit sadly.

Just had time to listen to this, and I can confirm that it's a great listen. I highly recommend it if you have the time.

The Embassy Policy has been updated to provide a specific statement on the value of our embassies and what establishing one actually means for our region, as it has been unclear till now. You can find that change in the Overview section:
In The Leftist Assembly, embassies do not necessarily mean the two regions are allied, rather it is a show of camaraderie with those regions that share, either in part or in full, the ideologies or principles of The Leftist Assembly, and with whom we share a mutual respect. With this stated, the following regulations outline the embassy policy of The Leftist Assembly.
To establish an embassy with The Leftist Assembly, a region must satisfy the following criteria:
Ten or more active nations
Regularly-elected regional government
Not have any of the following tags:
Anti-Communist
Capitalist
Conservative
Fascist
Imperialist
Jump Point
Mercenary
Monarchist
Patriarchal
Puppet Storage
Theocratic
Totalitarian
Regions are exempt from the rules of Section 1 if they are:
Historically significant to the region
Allied with the region through an interregional pact
Any change to this Embassy Policy requires more than fifty percent of the General Assembly to vote in favour of it
Also, the TLA Law Writing Guide has been passed by the GA and can now be accessed here for all budding law-writers:

Article - a section of the Constitution
Act - a statute law contained within the Code of Laws
Bill - a proposed new law before it is passed into an Act
Section - the first indent, shown by 1, 2, 3, etc.
Subsection - the second indent, shown by a, b, c, etc.
Supersubsection - the third indent, shown by i, ii, iii, etc.
Clause - a line of law
Title
If a new law (which becomes an Act if passed):
[1/2-word Name] Bill
For example, Executive Capacities BillIf an amendment to the Constitution:
Constitution Amendment ([2-word description])
For example, Constitution Amendment (No Criticism)If an amendment to a non-constitutional law:
[Name] Amendment ([2-word description])
For example, Electoral Conduct Amendment (Extended Voting)Make it the name of your dispatch; it should not be mentioned again in the bill
Your bill should only ever address one law (i.e. the Constitution or one Act); if your change affects several laws, make one for each
Overview
Keep the Purpose statement to one sentence, preferably as succinct as possible
If you are both author and signatory (i.e. GA member proposing your own bill), merge both into one title: 'Author/Signatory'
The time specified under Implementation should apply to the entire bill, not differing by section
Existing Law
If a new law, this part is not needed
If an amendment to the Constitution, the affected articles must be included in full
If an amendment to an existing law, the whole Act must be included in full
Proposed Law
If seeking to remove an entire Act, the following text should be placed in this part:
[i]The [Name] Act shall be removed.[/i]
When referring to time, it should be listed as "[word] days" or "[word] weeks" when equal to a full week (e.g. three days, four weeks)
Writing Clauses
A clause is one sentence - there should be no full stops within it
Keep each clause short, and don't include reasoning (e.g. because, due to, to allow for)
If a clause needs to be a little longer, break it up into subsections or supersubsections
Only punctuation allowed at the end of a sentence is a colon (:) if it is followed by subsections - no full stops, commas, or semicolons
Am presently counting the votes for each Justice candidate! Will publish the results as soon as I have them:_
Counting is complete! I can confirm there were thirteen confirmed votes, with the numbers eventually adding up to the following.
Communistico: 10 Yes, 3 No.
Rathfarnham: 10 Yes, 3 No.
South Miruva: 12 Yes, 1 No.
Which means all three proposed nominees were successful! Congratulations to our new Justices, Communistico Rathfarnham and South Miruva. I'm sure all three will fulfill their duties to uphold the laws and Constitution of our region with scrupulous care and skill.
Anyone read max barry's stuff?
Jennifer Government and Lexicon yes. Not his other stuff.
I just discovered this game, and then discovered there are actual unironic Nazis in it. Oh what an awful world we live in.
any good?
so update on our government, four members are pirates.
Halfblakistan and South Miruva
Can confirm that I am not one of these pirates.
Halfblakistan, South Miruva, and Hecknamistan
Jennifer Government is great, Lexicon is, meh. The idea is really great, but it's execution falls down a bit.
I have decided to open the submission of entries for the 2nd Culture Competitions. As of now, you have an indefinite time frame to submit your entries for the regional animal, anthem, coat-of-arms, flag, and flower. All submissions that I approve of (i.e. must be serious) will be posted here when I get the time to do so: page=dispatch/id=995325
This is not intended to interrupt anything else and will just be an open thing until an appropriate time comes to commence voting. I'll give you the assurance that you have at least a couple weeks!
Cedoria and South Miruva
I encourage all comrades to participate in this event, as history has shown it's a wonderful creative event that brings out all the talents this community has on display!
Me submit! Me make now!
Me made! why no add yet?
Me serious! Why noone take me serious!
Me no joke!
Me submit animal and anthem too, Red and Gold not add! Red and Gold hate me. Much discrimination, make sad.
Rocks aren't animals, and that Neanderthal flute solo made my ears bleed. No discrimination, make no sad! 😁
um my pet rock couldn't agree less
