would you be including an option where someone's upset because they think the fact that you think there's that big a physical difference between men and women makes you a misogynist?

On a completely unrelated note, are there any issues about freeing the nipple? I'd like to write a draft on that, although I'm not sure if I'd focus on breastfeeding in public or just the double standard of female toplessness in general. The former may not be an issue worthy of Leader's attention (thoughts?) but the latter surely is. It might have to be "adult", but I still think it's a topic worthy of an issue, and could be quite funny too.

Baloo Kingdom wrote:Coming from an Issue Rookie this might seem out of place, but yes, I believe there is in fact an already existing issue on breastfeeding in public. I can't recall the name at the moment, but I remember coming across it a few times while card farming. Either you or I would have to do a more in-depth search of the issues list to find its name, but it was something along the lines of "Breastfeeding in Public?", or something similar to that. Anyway, that's all the information I have to give.

#1138 is about defibrillators, but doesn't mention what condition defibrillators are supposed to help with until option 3.

The United Artherian Federation wrote:The idea for this chain literally came to me in a dream last night. The basic premise is that Leader's ageing grandfather is in poor health, and begins writing letters to them, outlining some changes he would like to see in the nation before he passes. This chain would serve as a way for nations to get rid of policies they have and would like to get rid of (such as no prisons, no judiciary, euthanasia, geronticide, etc.) Each issue would be a different letter from him, and have three to four options, one of which would preserve the status quo and not remove any policies. Right now the idea is in it's infancy and only a few hours old, so any feedback is appreciated.

That would be #947 "Imitation Station".

Merni wrote:"The Issue" in issue 161:
"After the vast fortunes of a recently deceased oil tycoon in Merni were left to a small cactus plant, citizens nationwide have been asking the same question: should the inheritance tax laws be changed?"
Can someone with a better English understanding explain how the question follows from the situation? It seems like a complete non sequitur from a rich (and possibly eccentric) oil tycoon naming a cactus plant as his heir (without mention as to how much of the fortune the inheritance tax took up), to citizens discussing inheritance tax. I would understand it more if it was saying that, after paying inheritance tax, only a small cactus plant was left.
On that subject, are there any issues existing dealing with forced heirship? This is the rule in most civil law systems that a certain portion of the estate must be left to the children -- they cannot be disinherited entirely (with exceptions).

Something like this is currently happening where I live, and though I heard that this trend had been continuing for the past decade, it only got worse during the pandemic. I mean, there are certain businesses that come to be deeply engrained in a certain neighborhood - the old bookstore around the corner, the cafe with the amazing almond cookies that was run by the same family for 4 generations, the taqueria across the street... etc. etc. These businesses provide the backdrop to the memories many people have about a neighborhood and they are presumably even more important if that neighborhood is kinda touristy. But the "touristiness" of the neighborhood makes the landlords greedy, they raise the rent, the original businesses that helped contribute to making the neighborhood 'trendy' in the first place end up leaving.
Perhaps this could be a reason to suggest that the government intervene to regulate the rents? This is more or less what I have in mind.

Of course it's not time. It's never time, not on its own. You make it time. If you're under fire in the no-man's land of WW1, you start digging a foxhole even if the ideal time would be when you *aren't* being bombarded, because once you wait for it to be 'time', other situations will need your attention, assuming you survive that long. If the fields aren't furrowed, plow them. If the iron is not hot, make it so. If society is not ready, change it.
