>>24986783You mean the power supply? Also, you wrote this post, so yes you can. There are many other ways to write.
>>24986664>without any sort of profit or clout motivation.Why? You want to put all that effort in and get nothing out of it on purpose?
>>24986783>The good news is that I’ve finally surpassed 30k views on Royal Road.This is like an adult man being proud that he managed to paint within the lines. Yeah, congratulations, I guess? What's up next, not shitting your pants in public, doing your own shoelaces every morning?
