## What is "Blaze Star"?
I picked up this domain about a year ago. I was looking for some places to host some of my own things. There's a domain I've had for over a decade but never really liked. I wanted something memorable, a bit obscure, but easy to describe.
I came across Blaze Star when there was talk of the star [T Coronae Borealis](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T_Coronae_Borealis) flaring in 2025. It is theorized to have a roughly 80-year cycle, though this latest one has yet to materialize. It has the official proper name "Blaze Star". I thought it particularly fitting since I've been using the handle `Periodic` for over a decade now.
