Should I just start from scratch? Is someone able to go over my code to see what I'm doing wrong? What do I do?

Have you located your Multiboot header in your kernel binary using a hex editor yet?

Are there any hex editors you'd recommend?

Any hex editor is fine, but if you're using Windows I like HxD.

Hello again. I've returned from my break. I realized how dumb and annoying I was, so I got better.
