As of the 29th of August 2018, Klaus Devestatorie, my first account in NationStates, will have existed for 10 years.

It was suggested that I burn a copy of Jennifer Government to celebrate, but I'm poor. Instead, I chose to delete the book from my kindle, but this felt unsatisfying and it turns out I can re-download it whenever I want anyway. Instead, I state this: the Richmond Tigers are a bad football team, and should be moved to Tasmania.

This has been approximately 2 years of good(?), clean(??) fun with friends(!?), and about 8 years of excruciatingly irritating and painful OOC drama. To the handful of people who contributed only to the former, thank you. To everyone who contributed to both, I forgive you, and thank you. To everyone who only contributed to the latter, I continue to log in for no reason other than the hope for an opportunity to enact bloody and merciless revenge upon you, and everything and everyone that you value.

After Port Adelaide collapsed from an 11-4 record to miss the finals, I feel I have no choice but to bandwagon for Collingwood out of pure spite. I hope they're up by 115 with 30 seconds to go, and get given a really soft free directly in front of goal, and make it 121. I hope it's against Hawthorn, so everyone else in the AFL has to make the awful choice between bandwagoning for Collingwood or Hawthorn. I hope literal actual magpies attack the Hawthorn fans when they leave early, and I hope children all over the country are traumatized by Eddie McGuire's smiling face. Burn it all to the ground.

I haven't made any flags in the style of my main in a very long time- partly because I stopped making true "Klaus Devestatorie Nations" compared to raid puppets, undercover puppets, hawk/founder puppets, etc, partly because I lost that original Paint program I was using to make them (although I could absolutely do them now in Paint.NET, nevermind Photoshop), and partly because it simply became way too many nations to give them all unique flags. Maybe I'll start again, but if I do, I'd want to do it in a more consistent manner.
