Ten-four is just cop-speak for six-seven.

@freshfleisch.bsky.social is this anything

@freshfleisch.bsky.social How'd I do?

If we had frictionless financial markets, trans people would fund surgery by selling debt instruments.
Junk bonds, if you will.

English country magical girl?

One Austrian Pope (Gregory V)!

She obiter on my dicta till I ratio.

(To find their besties in, you see.)

It's Trogdor!

Oh, you mean south Gatineau?

"The HM senior coroner for Lancashire, Dr James Adeley, has sent a report to the transport secretary, Heidi Alexander, calling for action to be taken to prevent future deaths. Adeley labelled the licensing system for drivers as the “laxest in Europe” as he said the UK was one of only three countries to rely on self-reporting of visual conditions affecting the ability to drive. He said it was concerning that the UK was the only European country to issue licences without any visual checks for a continuous period up to the age of 70."

The UK has a self-ID system for having the visual acuity needed to drive a car safely but gender self-ID is completely beyond the pale because wizard lady said so. 🫠

Contender #4 is Aragon, which is definitely one of the more promising countries out there-- indeed, it was the first one I ever played back in EU3. It sits sandwiched between France and Castile and may get eaten, but you never can tell.

Fate of the Osage: Assimilated into the Pacaha Federation, 1555 AD.

This is what we in the belly of the institution suspect (I stress: suspect) as well.

#3 will be the Osage, another Native American country, which likely means it's doomed but I suppose you never know.

#2: Madyas (minor island nation in the Philippines).
FATE: Annexed by Maguindanao, July 1481.

#1: Choctaw
FATE: Mostly eaten by Brits. Remnants assimilated into the Natchitoches Federation, the last Native American bastion in North America, June 1623.

Haaah! Being asked to shed 40 FTE as well. Shit's pretty grim.

Our first contender are... the Choctaw. Like most Native American countries, it'll be a wonder if they survive past the 1600s.

Let's do something experimental! Since Europa Universalis 4 seems to be getting no further content updates, I will be running every single (1444 or releasable) country until either it gets eliminated or we reach 1821. Let's see what worlds result.

the woke mob (the council of nicea) want you to believe that the son is coeternal with the father and of the same substance. they want you to disbelieve your own eyes (all drawings of jesus are of a young guy and all drawings of god are of an old guy so jesus has to be younger)

Oh worm?

I see they're doing 'trans women are women because they make straight men get erections' discourse on the other site.

Don't stare at it too hard or you'll swap places.
