gollark: ```Info for requesting a trade from my Garland or Shadow Walker alts: Unfortunately I'm temporarily suspending trades from my alts unless we've already talked. Life has gotten busy and it's just too hard to keep this sorted out for me. I do plan on reopening requests as soon as I can. If we've already talked, what we talked about or promised is still a go. You might need to keep reminding me.```
