Money can't buy oxygen.
Money can't buy an ocean, it can't buy the moon, it can't buy capitalism, can't buy a country, can't buy a planet, can't buy an aircraft carrier etc.

1. wrong, you can buy oxygen canisters
2. wrong, you purchase military vessels and enforce the claim that the ocean is yours
3. Wrong, https://lunarembassy.com/product/buy-lunar-land-on-the-moon-lunar-embassy/
4. Capitalism isn’t a physical object, emotion or something you can buy, so i guess you’re right, but it doesn’t count
5. Buy the title of president, buy the military, buy the transport sector etc etc and you have yourself a country
6. See above, buy enough countries and you own the world
7. Wrong, this is a pretty easy thing to buy if you’re a country and have the money, and a military. Could also buy a tiny replica one

You just watch me go. There is literally no limit to the amount of churches I can buy.

Hmm, if I could, I would like to change my primary industry type to leaving nose prints on windows.

Takura uh the other three are still in here, but i wanted a better nation. . . 3 times

Sancta romana ecclesia, Takura, Erroria, Randomcrita, and 1 otherFaevynea

Money may not buy happiness, but money can buy a dog, and the wag of its tail, well I’ll get that myself.
Money may not buy life, but it does buy food, and we can live on using it.
Money cannot buy abstract things, but it can buy material things that help the abstract things.
So I’d say that money can kinda buy everything.

Also “Leader or follower”
Its a mix. I’m a follower among familiars but a leader among strangers. I guess that’s because I’d be willing to listen to someone I trust, but I only trust my own judgement in a group of strangers.

Sancta romana ecclesia

Piedmont-genoa wrote:Takura uh the other three are still in here, but i wanted a better nation. . . 3 times

Oh I get that. This is my fifth nation and I still sometimes get a desire to start anew, with a clean slate. But I'm fond of this one. Yours has an interesting name, looks like some alternative history Italian nation (which is actually what Sancta Romana Ecclesia is!).

We would greatly appreciate if you would put the other three nations in Icor though! It's Karman territory. You could still talk with these three nations on Karma's Regional Message Board, thanks to the embassy two regions share. The reason being, we want Karma to be the highest region in average WA endorsements received. This would help in achieving that goal :p

Aggie wrote:Howdy! It's time for the Question of the Day!

Do you feel like a leader or a follower?

I'm interested to hear your answers!

I feel more comfortable with following than leading. As a follower you need to care about doing your work well, another sets the goals. And as long as those goals are not manifestly stupid or wrong, it is not your responsibility if these goals lead somewhere productive or if they lead to nowhere. This is the leader's responsibility. You may of course give your boss ideas on what you should be doing and the best followers are not pure followers. The best followers come up with and suggest new goals for their leader. But it is he that makes the calls and has to accept their consequences.

However, I definitely won't be comfortable with following someone who, in my opinion, does not know what they're doing. In that case I will either seek to get in their position or replace them with someone else. And there's undeniably a certain satisfaction in having a leadership position, even though it brings also some extra cares into your life.

So to recap, follower is my default stance. But I won't shy away from being a leader if somebody gives me the opportunity to do so (and I believe that I can do it), but I won't actively seek it out, unless I think that the current leader is bad.

Hey you beautiful folks!! Fridate is over and the dust has settled. That means it’s time to get back to usual business. And usual business of course means... the question of the day baby yeahhhhh!!!

What is your favorite scent of candle?

For me, it’d have to be these candle squares I found a long time ago that inexplicably smell exactly like fruit loops and they are the best scent ever and I love them.
