The Post Tribune Telegraph of AAtlasia - TPTTAA

[Purple State]

The results aren't final yet. There is still about 72 hours left of debate and voting to take place, but the Convention is nearly complete.

Right now we are asking all Atlasians to review the current documents, found here and provide any thoughts or amendments before a final vote on amendments and then on the entire document.

KALJEWET

TPTTAA
Hello and welcome! How are you today.

Kalwejt
Tommorow I have a lot of damn classes, but today was a good day

TPTTAA
Ah. So right down to business. Why do you speak so much polish on your facebook?

Kalwejt
Because that what Poles are doing and since most of my FB friends are Poles, they would get annoyed with me speaking in English only

TPTTAA
Why are so many of your friends poles?

Kalwejt
Now it's a time to reveal an astonishing fact: Kalwejt, you're talking to, is a Pole

TPTTAA
OMG your polish!?!?!? Do you think this scandal will efffect your bid for the vice presidency?

Kalwejt
Well, I hope you won't tell anyone... But... you see, Midwest is funny place. We have Bulgarian-Atlasians here, Polish-Atlasians, Brazilian-Atlasians, Spanish-Atlasians, German-Atlasian... heck, even Minnesota-Atlasians. I'm sure Midwest still likes me despite my shocking secret. But I cannot speak for the rest of Atlasia.

TPTTAA
So you are running with fritz, what can you tell me about him

Kalwejt
Well, Fritz is a dude who is keeping the voters list, so the SoEA, one funny Canadian dude, have his job a hell lot easier. In other words, he's a man familiar with running an important Atlasian instututions, unlike Andrew or Naso, hence: best qualified to be President

TPTTAA
What are your thoughts on Duke, your opponent

Kalwejt
What the heck Duke is doing as a VP nominee? He should be on the top. He's very valuable and active dude, perfect for President, and tapping him for an inactive Vice Presidency is an insult. I feel for him, man :-(

TPTTAA
How about. Uh. That guy running with Naso. What are your thoughts on him

Kalwejt
He's a fellow Midwestern thus all I can say, he's awesome. See, we have three Midwesterns on the ticket: Fritz, Dead0man and me. And there are three other dudes: Naso, an infamous Ohio redhead, Connecticut elitist Andrew and Duke, who is all right, but is not Midwestern :-( ... Wow, what I am doing? I'm suppoused to be above a regional divisions

TPTTAA
Now what is this "Midwest" you speak of?

Kalwejt
Atlasia region *hughughug*

TPTTAA
I hear you want to be it's senator?

Kalwejt
Yes. Those rumors are true, sir.

TPTTAA
now your opponent. His name is very similar to Stevenson, but it's not. Why do you think this is?

Kalwejt
He's no Adlai Stevenson, duh.

TPTTAA
Do you think he's been an able presiding officer?

Kalwejt
Honestly, when I was Lt. Governor, there were delays, blunders and mistakes, but I was the one who had to organize an Althing from nothing. He got an established institution, precedents, rules, but seems to be just too inactive for even that job, much more Senator.

TPTTAA
Do you think he's been a cain presiding officer?

Kalwejt
?

TPTTAA
Haha, inside joke, anyway, thank you for taking the time to talk to us!

Kalwejt
My pleasure *hughughug*

[Teddy (IDS Legislator)]

COOKIES

TPTTAA
Thank you for taking the time to speak with us.

Fritz
Thank you for having me.


TPTTAA
We always like to start out light at TPTTAA, so tell us if you can, what kind of Cookies do you prefer?

Fritz
Generally I prefer chocolate chip, but I am also partial to peanut butter.  The main thing about cookies is they need to be soft and chewy, not hard and crunchy.


TPTTAA
Do you cook your own cookies, and if so, would you consider yourself good at cooking cookies?

Fritz
Lord, no, I don't cook or bake at all.


TPTTAA
Can I have a cookie?

Fritz
Chocolate chip ok?


TPTTAA
Enough about cookies. Down to policy and fact and experience. Tell us why you think you are the right man to be President.

Fritz
Well Teddy, truth be told I never planned on running.  I'm not sure why Purple State isn't running for a second term, but since he is not, I think that my experience, dedication, and ideals offer a better choice than the alternative that is offered.

TPTTAA
What ideas do you espouse that you consider to be your "top few priorities" or "key policies"

Fritz
I want to take this game in an entirely new direction.  I envision an Atlasia with three, four, five hundred registered voters, buzzing with activity and competitive, exciting elections at all levels of the government.


TPTTAA
You are a former Senator and SoFA. You are currently RG. Which position have you held in Atlasia would you consider the "most enjoyable"? Which do you feel you achieved the most productive work in? Which was the most difficult and or stressful?

Fritz
I am enjoying my current role immensely.  Administering the voter rolls is a job I take seriously, and I do it rather well.  As a Senator I am proud of the work I did on health care, but honestly I think my shortcoming as a Senator was my skill in the art of writing bills.


TPTTAA
You've picked an interesting running mate, why do you think he is most qualified to be VP?

Fritz
Kalwejt has proven his abilities, both in the government of the Midwest and as Attorney General.  He is a leader, a thinker, a doer.  Yes, he gets a little hot-headed at times, but that just shows that he has passion.


TPTTAA
You were absent from Atlasia for 5 years. What were you up to in that time?

Fritz
Actually it was closer to four years.  I was working on my MBA.


TPTTAA
Riiiiiiight, so you are saying you wern't up to any illegal activites?

Fritz
You mean illegal in the United States, or in Atlasia?


TPTTAA
Uh-huh. *glare*

Fritz
heh

TPTTAA
Anyways. Moving on. What do you think of your main opponent in the race, AndrewCT?

Fritz
I think they've got the ticket backwards- Duke should be on the top.  As for Andrew, where has he been, lately?  He has not really given us any campaign speeches since he announced, and Duke posted his platform- probably wrote it, too.  What has he accomplished in the Senate?  If Andrew's recent activity level is any indication- while he is running for President, no less- I think his administration will be a complete disaster, if it happens.


TPTTAA
And lastly, the question everyone wants to know: Do you have pets? If so what kind and what are their names?

Fritz
I have a beautiful black cat whom I love dearly, his name is Brody.


TPTTAA
Thank you for this interview, and next time... bring more cookies.

Fritz
Thanks Teddy!!

Your link wanted me to download something in order to watch the video.  I didn't feel like doing that.

FRITZ IS A GAY

I really don't know why MJ hates me so fiercely.  My arrogance??  Wha..?

Like I said earlier, I did nothing to deserve his hatred.  Maybe you're right, Earl- he hates me because I'm gay.

You're a gay?  Damn, And it's too late to change my vote.

[MASHED POTATOES. VOTE!]

We fully support anyone who is a gay!

TPTTAA wants to apologize to tmthforu for like, accidentally deleting his interview months back and not having the balls to say so.

[MASHED POTATOES. VOTE!]

I still support my buddy.

[tmthforu94]

I forgive you. I better get another interview in the future though, or else...I'll...

Sorry, I'm not really good at making threats. But another interview would be appreciated.

[Teddy (IDS Legislator)]

COMIC

[Teddy (IDS Legislator)]

According to a TPTTAA poll... (taken here and here and here and here)

The best president Atlasia ever had was Colin Wixted of the NLC

Runner up was Purple State of the DA

Additional runners up were:
#3 Lief of the JCP
#4 Keystone Phil of the (look this up)
and a tie for #5, Nym90 of the (?) and bgwah of the JCP

[Antonio the Sixth]

Phil was an independent and Nym a democrat.

[Хahar 🤔]

Clearly none of the people who voted for Phil were actually around during his Presidency.

[Teddy (IDS Legislator)]

so

He seemed to be one of those "non-idiots" at the time.

I find it hard to believe, but my research says it may in fact be true.
Perhaps he can return to this.

[Hash]

[Teddy (IDS Legislator)]

I ask everyone to vote here:
https://uselectionatlas.org/FORUM/index.php?topic=130186.0

I will be making a "big reveal" in a few days related to this poll.

[Teddy (IDS Legislator)]

We've received this from Timothy Florscu/Idssv Nshrmru

You must be logged in to read this quote.

WE ARE DEEPLY INSULTED

Since when have we been "serious"?

[Teddy (IDS Legislator)]

Also my big reveal is now rather than later:

I suffer from mental illness. I have Depression, ADHD, Autism, OCD, and Dysgraphia.

I take medication for these conditions that help me be "normal" or at least as normal as I want to be.

There was a time, however, before the pills, that I would have easily faked cancer to get pity, and not even cared.

That is no longer me.

That was me.

It was me.

It was me.


People love to tell me how useful I am as SoFE, and maybe I am. People tell me they don't hate me and maybe that's true. Remember though, I used to be a troll. I used to be as bad as Yates, as bad as Hamilton, as bad as Libertas... in fact, I was worse than Yates, Hamilton, and Libertas. Much worse. I was terrible.


And now I'm not.


Keep that in mind next time you want to hang someone for their crimes. Any time you are attacking "anyone who would do such a thing" you are attacking me.

Keep that in mind.

[Thomas D]

I'm sure that wasn't easy to post. But I'm glad you did. And I'm glad you're doing better now.
