My AWS Mac1 Dedicated Host is stuck in a Pending state and I can't create Mac instances

From the console, the dedicated host state is 'pending'. This is within us-east-1b. I am unable to release the host. I can create 1 Mac host max on my account. As such, I cannot launch a mac instance. The mac instance I was able to launch previously couldn't pass status checks and I could not ssh into it. It was after fully stopping the mac instance that the host became unavailable.

This seemed to resolve itself over time and might be a stability issue on the AWS side. I'm going to leave this answer here because I didn't see any support on this issue elsewhere. Solidarity if you're reading this.
