All Hail Windows 95.

Hi Will. How's my Canadian friend? :)
Jaslandia
It technically is player-controlled, just by 3 players. Not like it's controlled by an AI or something. *insert smiley emoticon with tongue sticking out here*

Hey Peng! Im well, notwithstanding all this rain. Its been the rainiest July Ive ever experienced, and its putting a damper on my summer. Aside that, Im good.
Howre you, my penguin friend?
Precisely what an AI or something would say...

It's rained solidly for the last 3 days here in Maryland, but from what I hear it hasn't rained at all in almost a month back home in Britain.
Strange things happening
Everestopia, Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica
My summer vacation ends tomorrow. The summer here has been quite dry and hot. Some say it's the driest summer ever recorded.
Besides that I'm okay. Not much to report on my end, you know.
Jaslandia
Hey guys, if you could get a lifetime supply of anything, what would you get?
Lifetime supply of money doesn't count

chocolate/candy
Or energy/power. I would never have to pay electricity bills.
What's yours?
Nuremgard, Jaslandia, Mercunova, The British Islands Confederacy
Pringles
4 tubes a month for life would be a great deal
Nuremgard, Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica, Mercunova, The British Islands Confederacy
First mistake was moving to Maryland and expecting anything to be better. :P
But yeah, basically. I live in prairie Canada, which is nothing if not dry af in the summer. And yet, fvcking rain everyday. Good to know I can blame England for not pulling its weight this season.
Wait, is a tube of Pringles the same concept here as it is where you are? Because isnt that a value of like $4?Mercunova
Good (leftist) presidents.
Nuremgard
Tough question. Books, beer, whiskey.
Everestopia, Nuremgard
Dude thunderstorms here are scary. They sound more aggressive than British ones, I was spooked. I won't miss them when I go head back over the Atlantic next week.
Yeah those are Pringles. I didn't want to go crazy, because I can eat a tube of Pringles in like an hour and those things are like 900 calories or something, a truly lifetime supply would lower my actual lifespan. It made sense to go with like 4 a month for life, that's like a tube a week.
I really like Pringles.

Why are all you British people afraid of thunderstorms? I love a thunderstorm
Probably they're more aggressive here because they cover more land over which to get convective heat.
Bearlong, Nuremgard, Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica
This read like an audition for the actual devil.
Jaslandia, Axeldonia, Penguania And Antarctica, The British Islands Confederacy
You want thunderstorms? Come down to Florida in the summer. We have 'aggressive' thunderstorms up the wazoo!
Or for a genie.

All the grass is burnt to f*ck it looks like the Algarve its genuinely discomforting

How are you all?

Doing good Peng, you?
Penguania And Antarctica
I'm alright. Up to much today? :D
Mercunova
Nah not much really. Wish otherwise XP

A lifetime supply of good health.

The Issue
Princess Jennifer of Spanelsko is to become a mother, and her approaching new arrival has birthed the topic of watching royal ladies in labour.
ME: How do still have monarchy?
We still have a monarchy? asks republican socialist MP Salvatore Ward. We wouldnt need to deal with this issue if we just got rid of the bloodsuckers altogether. Im not saying we should roll out the guillotines, but send them packing and make them ordinary citizens like the rest of us.
If only NS had the execution option..... (don't mind the royal family next to the large guillotine behind me)
Nuremgard
Yuh.
On a related noted, the bf just sent me a snap of the new Oh Henry 4:25 chocolate bar for the intense hunger that strikes five minutes after 4:20. It actually says that on the package. Canada is legalising with a vengeance.
Penguania And Antarctica, Mercunova, Yukona
Canada always appears to my like a very nice country with friendly people. Can you confirm that? :)
Yukona, Anglia Imperium
I share this impression
Penguania And Antarctica
Irn Bru, literally not joking.
Nuremgard, Mercunova, Yukona
It's 28°C/83°F in my room. I don't know how to sleep in this heat.
Axeldonia, Mercunova, Yukona
Also are there open container laws in Canada?
I mean, its my baseline so Im probably too biased to give an accurate response. But I believe the general stereotype is true: the average Canadian is more polite and friendly than some of its counterparts. However, there are subsets within. For instance, I find western Canadians are more friendly than central Canadians, while eastern Canadians are more friendly than probably any other living being.
This is the jurisdiction of our provinces, so it varies. Yes, they do exist throughout, but provisions change as you cross borders. Québec is the most relaxed but also the most bizarre, I believe.
Mercunova, Anglia Imperium
You got my new issue!
Russkov Soviet, Penguania And Antarctica, Spanelsko, Cofn Ministry Of Internal Affairs
I swear they give the new issue to the region you're in because everytime you make an issue one of us always gets it soon after.
Nuremgard, Penguania And Antarctica, Mercunova, Spanelsko, Anglia Imperium
Or I'm just a really talented issue author.
Penguania And Antarctica, Mercunova, Spanelsko
Oh my god, same. It's 26 degrees celsius in the parts of sweden above the arctic circle!
Penguania And Antarctica, Mercunova
I like your flag.
Penguania And Antarctica, Mercunova
You dont realise how much I dream of living in BC or Quebec.

I am disappointed. Where are the climate change deniers?
Nuremgard
Lex Caledonia You said you'd want a lifetime supply of Irn-Bru. Old recipe or new?
Axeldonia, Penguania And Antarctica, Lex Caledonia, Mercunova
Old, obviously.
Nuremgard, Axeldonia, Penguania And Antarctica, Mercunova, Yukona
Yunno, I don't really see much of a difference between the two recipes.
Maybe that's because I usually drink the sugar free version
Nuremgard, Penguania And Antarctica
oh so that was your issue? Good one really, only really lacks the crazy option of the french style execution but yeah fun issue, you really are good at making them nurem.
Nuremgard, Penguania And Antarctica
Thanks
Penguania And Antarctica
I cant tell the difference either.
Thank you.
Penguania And Antarctica
a bit of a random question, is it only me who thinks that there's a lack of issues which are story based? (meaning that you choose one thing and get another set of options in the next stage of the issue, like for example the one with Brockland??? Brasiland? something like that was their name where you can either go to war or go the diplomatic way as they captured some of your civilians)
Bearlong, Nuremgard, Penguania And Antarctica
Literally either BECAUSE IT TASTES THE F*CKING SAME YA ABSOLUTE ROASTERS
Nuremgard, Penguania And Antarctica
It actually does lol dunno why people say it tastes different.
Penguania And Antarctica
Ah, I can. Maybe it's an age thing?
Penguania And Antarctica
It absolutely does if you have a sweet tooth or are used to consuming high quantities of sugary drinks

Tory MEP says people who show "extreme loyalty to the EU" should be tried for treason. Interesting. Does that mean we can try unionist politicians in Scotland for treason then?
Yes. But first, cat people and those who hold their eating utensils in closed fists like theyre battle instruments.

Fretting over cutlery etiquette? How very English of you.

Also, official petition to change the three lions on the Royal Arms of England to a neatly laid fork, spoon, and knife.
Nuremgard, Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica, Mercunova
I can understand that. Some Issues make it possible for you to have other Issues (for example, if you have a decision where you choose to create a monarchy, you'll be eligible for monarchy-based Issues), and other Issues will remove an option from another Issue (for example, some Issue options only apply to monarchies, or to dictatorships, or to communist nations, etc.). But Brasilistan and the other Chain Issue (I forget its name) are the only story-based ones. I would like there to be more, but I've heard those kinds of Issues take a long time to make and finalize, so I'll give them a pass.
Penguania And Antarctica, Spanelsko
They only ever made that one issue chain a while ago. It's disappointing they haven't made anymore since.
Nuremgard, Jaslandia, Axeldonia, Penguania And Antarctica, Spanelsko
I could have sworn they made a second one, but I can't remember it.
Penguania And Antarctica
Here's what I was thinking of. It's called 'The Enemy Within'. I don't remember what it's about, though.
https://www.nationstates.net/page=news/2017/06/29/index.html
Nuremgard, Penguania And Antarctica
Oooh, I don't remember getting that
Penguania And Antarctica
I think I got it when it first came out, but it's been a while, so I don't remember it now.
Everestopia, Penguania And Antarctica
So, what's everyone up to?
Nuremgard, Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica, Mercunova
Tis rather quiet around here.
Nuremgard, Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica, Mercunova
Hey, Evers. How are you? How's Florida?
Today my family and I watched some Hitler documentaries. Gonna' watch some more in a bit. I've also been binge watching left-wing YouTubers for the past few weeks.
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica, Mercunova
Making fun of racist Disney parody songs and the alt-right in general with Jas.
Nuremgard, Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica
The Enemy Within is a chain issue about a terrorist attack on your capital city's stock exchange market.
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica
Bloody hot but nice! :D
Ooh yeah? Love a good documentary!
Lefty YouTubers, isn't that all of them except Alex Jones?
Nuremgard, Penguania And Antarctica, Mercunova
Haha, as you do.
Jaslandia, Axeldonia, Penguania And Antarctica, Mercunova, Gualimole
Haha, no. YouTube has recently become infested with alt-right/far-right talking heads and sympathisers. Luckily, there is an awesome left-wing community of YouTubers who counteract their BS. This is very much needed in today's climate of populism and right-wing trends in politics.
Penguania And Antarctica, Gualimole
Oh yeah, now I remember!
Penguania And Antarctica
Are you sure? Because I struggle to get away from the lefty stuff. Especially that sanctimonious douche bag... Owen Jones.
Are you kidding me? I can't go a day without seeing a racist music video or "Feminist REKT Compilation #947290423498."
Nuremgard, Jaslandia
I've never watched any of his videos.
No idea what they are.
Good, don't bother!
When he speaks, you can almost see the sh!t flying out his mouth.
I can always see the sh!t coming out of right-wingers mouths.
I assumed you would feel the same about the opposing.
Some lefties can be a pain in the arse I admit.
Everestopia
Like me.

Everestopia, Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica, Mercunova
Come on! We're not that bad! We have good beaches, good art, good party scenes, etc.
Penguania And Antarctica
Too true.
I'm not going to disagree :P

Everestopia
Haha, no quite. I'm in Florida with my other half... Who happens to be a lefty.
Jas, Florida is an amazing place. Ignore him.
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica, Mercunova
I was playing. You did get that... right? :P
I never took you as the type to joke around all that much.

Jas is all about that party scene 😎
Ah, Im dating a lefty, as well. But hes cute, so ya know...At thy own peril, Evers.Everestopia, Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica, Mercunova
But are they real leftists or filthy liberals?
Liberal isnt a bad word where Im from. In fact, Im confident hed be more insulted by being described as a liberal because it doesnt go left enough.
Nuremgard
How left wing is he?
Left liberals are still leftist.
Everestopia, Nuremgard, Jaslandia
When I refer to leftists, I refer to those to those to the left of social democrats or liberal socialists. Those to the right of that are liberals.
He supports the British Green Party.
Nuremgard, Mercunova
He's on the line between liberal and leftist.
