Are you okay? Did something bad happen?
Please, Marine. If you need to stop, okay. But what happened?
Why do I have to defend myself here??? I made a decision and you guys should just...accept it. I can't go on. So goodbye. It was fun while it lasted but unfortunately, it has come to this.
You don't have to explain yourself. We... just wish you would. So we don't worry about you, like everyone is doing right now. It is out of love.
But we should stop asking him, everyone. I trust Marine will tell us when he is ready, so for now, let's give him his space.
I am sending my love to Marine in his time of difficulty.
I am also sending a solo to the everyone in the hopes of distracting us. I worked on this all day at work today. It was inspired by Taxor and Pixy, who are doing so well in expanding their respectively made alien races. So please enjoy my new solo, which I'll post as soon as I get home and edit it.

So everyone...after sleeping for a few hours and allowing myself time to calm down and re-evaluate my situation, I want you to know a couple of things...
*The blind idiot behind me is my brother*
- I am sorry for making you all worry. Additionally, the way I spoke to some of you was uncalled for and I am sorry for that as well.
- As to the reason why, it had to do with a close family member and an unfortunate stack of events happening too close to one another that nearly broke me. Like I said, I gave myself time to calm down.
- I will not be leaving.
- I am not completely certain if I will not try to leave again.
- I am very vulnerable right now. So please...if I delay anything or get on anyone's nerves, sorry in advanced but like I said, things are really rocky right now.
- You are all my family.

Glad you arnt leaving, dont give me a scare man, times get hard I think we all understand that.
Also I was sleeping while you posted the thing about Iwata but I agree with you I'm also sad about this, he played a big part in my childhood until today as well.
Anyway I hope you will get better soon. And remember if today was the worst day of your life than that is good news because all other days to come can only be better.
To all you other people I can't agree with the Farenheit thing, I never really used it. Although I have learned about it and how to read and use it. Same goes for Kelvin. Celsius just makes the most sense to me. But hey maybe it is the same for you guys, it makes more sense because that's how you learned it. I just wonder how it came to be that america uses so many other systems from the rest of the world.

Metrification was at its height in the 70s, during the Cold War where most people were resistant to any kind of change. The committee in charge of implementing the system was created by Gerald Ford (who was unpopular due to the Nixon thing) and then overseen by Jimmy Carter and Congress, neither of whom particularly supported the committee, just expected it to make things happen magically. Reagan came to office in the early 80s, and seeing the cost issues with changing the systems, nixed it. Metrification was out of vogue by then, and no current politicians want to say "let's spend money to change all the perceptions you know" to the public. Generally metric is still used by shipping and science fields, but the public still primarily learns imperial.

This reminds me of a quote I once heared from one of my favorite person who ever lived.
"It is not the stronget of species that survives, nor the most intelligent that survives. It is the one that is most adaptable to change." -Charles Dawrin
But thank you for the explanation I appreciate it ^^

I'm watching the livestream at the moment... or trying to. Is it just me or are NASA really bad when it comes to livestreaming. SpaceX always do a much better job of publicity.
Still... It could be worse... ever tried to watch a Roscosmos launch?
