Finally Some Good-ish News

My laptop is currently slowly dying so I have to rush this blog post out. I have maybe 10 more minutes before it powers off for good itself. I have good news! Illumarine will live, just give my new computer time to arrive in the mail. Thank you, everyone, for your continued interest and support. 

My new desktop should arrive within 2 weeks.

People change, and people can improve themselves if they care enough to. I see a lot of hate on platforms I am on, and I really dislike that. Call me a "grille...
