Hi Forestian friends!
I'm Moon (you might better know me as Emodea) and I just wanted to drop by to let y'all know that I've been elected as Refugia's newest FA Councillor, and will be serving as the region's official Envoy to y'all for the foreseeable future ^_^ Pleased to make your acquaintance once again!

Yeah, it's ironic, but Thatch is a great player and not even British. I kind of doubt he'd consider himself a Thatcherite either, even if he was when he founded the nation.

I sent in my TG for Flag Thursday! Which really should be Flag Friday, cuz alliteration. :P
Edit to not double post:
In the latest forum topics, I saw one saying: "Afghanistan and Bosnia invade Sweden". My first thought was, 'wow, we sure to live in strange times'. Not that it was likely an in-character roleplay... XD

Intergalactic Tip #1:Don't get shot by a Demoleculizer XL. It'll scramble your molecules and induce mind numbing pain until you pass out.

THE ISLANDER
"Some news happened!"
TODAY SOME four billion crickets were suddenly released across the archipelago, and Shalottes across the isles were asking "what is that noise?"
Alsa II put out a second appeal for calm as an assortment of terrifying, spiky-legged, musically-inclined insects assumed control of the government; she insisted "trust me, by winter they'll all be dead". But critics highlighted that the Gaeltyn had spent every ring in the Shalotte economy on our new overlords.
"Why have they done this?" said Kruck of Smarshbouth, while stamping his feet wildly. "We were assured of an extra-terrestrial threat from which only crickets could protect us! Now we have nothing but crickets!"
"These extra-galactic assassins proved to be less disastrous to our nation than the cure," said Vaxanti McStupid.
The Gaeltyn-in-exile has assured the public that the crickets will almost certainly be blown into the sea within a week by Shalotte's bizarre weather, but in the meantime have asked for calm.
"Terrifying extra-terrestrial assassins are currently refusing to kill us because our islands have been taken over by grasshoppers," said the Mon'gaeltyn. "Just... take that as a win, would you? They're not going to survive a Shalotte winter, so we just need to wait it out."
The Islander asked our new insect overlords for a comment, but we were unable to translate the response.

Now that I'm back, I do intend to pick this project up again! There were a LOT of recommendations when I brought this up before, but to provide a quality list of book recommendations for the community, I'd like to ask everyone to submit (or resubmit) any books you'd like to see on the list to me via telegram according to the following criteria:
To submit a recommendation, please TG me (Siornor) with the following: (1) full title of book, (2) author, and (3) 2-8 sentences summarizing what the book is about and why you like it. This last requirement is for the benefit of your region-mates -- we want to hear from you why we should read your rec!
You are welcome to send as many submissions as you like. Sending me a telegram with all three of the above components is the best and only way to guarantee that your book will make the reading list.
I reserve the right to freely edit any summaries submitted to me for spelling, grammar, and readability.
The submissions I have from before which meet these criteria and will be added to the list are: The Devil's Teeth from Nation of ecologists, Room from 
Uan aa Boa, and Gaia from 
Station 8. I may scour the RMB for other recs which had enough summary to put in the list, but if you send me your recommendations and summaries directly it will make my job much simpler and therefore quicker.

Ah, the smell of pine trees…

I think that comes from us. Thank you!

Well the smell may also be coming from us. Just saying.

How you conifers doin'? Today I saw a blue jay. It was cute.

Is the scale on the regional map measured in miles or km?
Frieden-und Freudenland, Jutsa, and Great julunaphra
I believe it's in km, and having checked there're 19 pole-to-pole (should be 20 but no biggie, smaller planet), it's definitely in km. That said, it's a little difficult to tell for certain how accurate that is at the really high latitudes, given map projection problems, but for all intents and purposes it's definitely in km. :p

The weather's supposed to reach 31°C where I live tomorrow.
The summer heat always creeps up on me it seems. One minute it's consistent rain, the next it's a heatwave.

American Northeast?
Jutsa, Northern Wood, and Great julunaphra
It was sort of like that where I am. It was around 30°C and then there was a thunderstorm that knocked the power out in my area. while i was at school

Britain. A heatwave has come up from Spain which caused these temperatures.

Oof, sorry.
I see. I am in Boston, Massachusetts and we pretty much expect the same weird weather for tomorrow. 30 degrees Celsius but also "scattered thunderstorms."

Ditto. It was a grotesque 96şF/35şC in my part of Michigan for most of the day yesterday, I spent the afternoon fooling around with a box fan trying to get the best airflow in my room. Then I woke up to a thunderclap at 7AM this morning and leapt out of bed to pull my fan out of the window.
I'm really concerned about these temperatures; I've lived in the Great Lakes area all my life and don't remember it ever getting into the nineties Fahrenheit until mid-late August when I was growing up. Now it's above 95 every other day in the middle of June. Little things going out of whack like that often seem to be a premonition that something more drastic is coming very soon.

In the part of Canada where I live, it used to start snowing a little in October and there would be one last small snowfall in April. Now, I'm starting to see these times shorten. It's kinda overwhelming what global warming is doing to the world

Fjording to the pines? What kind of talk is that!?
Also it will be devilishly hot here in Luxembourg too the upcoming days, with 37 degrees (= 98.6 degrees Drivinghood) expected on Saturday :(

Same here in Colorado, but now it's reaching near unbearable temperatures, it got to 44 degrees celcius (111 degrees fahrenheit) just the other day, and our internet is currently really spotty due to equipment exploding due to the high temperatures. But c'est la vie, mon amis.
Siornor, Frieden-und Freudenland, Northern Wood, Zerphen, and 2 othersNation of ecologists, and Furilisca
It went up to 35°C here recently. I nearly got sunburnt in 30°C weather, and I rarely get sunburns! (I don’t know why, I’m very pale, but every time I’m in the sun, I don’t get sunburns, I get a tan.)
My favourites! My state (New Jersey) has lots of them! But they’re in the South and I live in the North, so I don’t see them very often. :P They’re also not the Christmas type that I like, but still, they’re pine trees! I absolutely love pine trees, they are beautiful and they smell great! They are so relaxing to see… I wish I could eat the pine sap because I love it so much. :P It turns out pinecone jam exists, so maybe I could try some! I do love jam, I made some not too long ago.
Happy birthday! 🥳 Oh no, I’m too late… Welp, I’m late to everything, and I mean everything. Except for an appointment today and, like, 3 other times that I can’t remember. :P
