bot.run(discord_bot_token)

idk if that token is still active but you may want to scrub it since this is publicly accessible @arnodeceuninck

@EricFalkenberg Thanks for checking this! The token is made up, so safe to share

Fun fact: The token was based on the id of this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ

Lmao nice and definitely real token, totally not the id of a certain youtube video
