laya's assorted stuff

if any of you see me being active on here again go yell at me and tell me to finish doing all the craft projects ive been putting off and all the writing stuff i havent finished and finish reading the ever growing list of books ive been meaning to read

just. there’s one thing i want to say so i’ll be brave. you were what i wanted, i gave what i gave. i’m not sorry i met, i’m not sorry it’s over, i’m not sorry there’s nothing to save. 

with love. you have to fact check shit. yes you. you still have to fact check shit. a lot of people are great at fact checking stuff they don’t want to be true, but somehow are still absolute ass at fact checking stuff that’s rhetorically convenient to them. even people my age, who I KNOW grew up doing internet/bibliography literacy workshops, and being warned not to believe anything that isn’t reliably sourced, people who DO harp on fact checking conservative output or whatever, are still kneejerk sharing unsourced shit that is partially or wholly untrue or misleading, because it suits whatever narrative they’re pursuing in that moment, without even a “take this with a grain of salt”. fact check!!!!!! look at the sources!!!!! yes it’s a drag!!! do it!!!!!

live through this, and you won't look back

It was the hest of times, it was the horse of times
