psa even davinci crashes from time to time. in case you were wondering
I'm telling you. Read books. There's an entire world of dead useful knowledge contained. There are so many books that have a TON of useful information while also being easier to read than textbooks.
Listen, I know the internet's gone to pieces. Misinformation is practically the only thing you can be certain of with any search engine.
But books.
I mean yeah, there are books that are inaccurate. Or outdated. But for the most part, if someone cares enough to compile so much information on a subject together into a book, they care enough to make sure it's right. After all, it's not so easy to edit it like a blog once it's published. They're not spending so much time and labor putting together random units of information they stumbled across on the internet. They're doing this with genuine research and careful time and knowledge.
Let me emphasize one more time that there are so many books with real information that are NOT COLLEGE TEXTBOOKS (though those can be incredible sources of information too!). There is real information out there in very easy to process formats if you're willing to open a book and thumb through the index, table of contents, or even just all the pages.
...I mean, it does require us to care a little bit. It's certainly not as fast and convenient as a quick internet search. But it is so much more reliable, and if you care to know more about a subject I think it's important to care enough to get some solid information about it and not just a once-and-done.
Side note, did you know the Dewey Decimal System has a number for everything? Actually everything? Want to pick up a book on crochet or leatherworking? Dewey's got you. Learn about moths? Yup. Politics? Public speaking? Languages? Writing? Architecture? Librarians have master's degrees specifically so they can help you find things in the DDS (and also for other reasons but ya know).

as long as the DM is "hey can we be friends" and not "hey ๐ wanna be friends ๐๐"
Itโs 104% okay to come to your DM and just say, โHi, can we be friends?โ And then start asking you random questions.

I know running away doesn't solve my problems, and I know I have to face it tomorrow but still. I see that message and I'm gone.

love coming home for the holidays because I can wear the same clothes for five days straight and nobody bats an eye. I can sleep on the couch and no one tells me to go to bed. I can wear a Chewbacca onesie in public. I can go home and shower and then put the same onesie back on and wear it for four more days. I can sleep on the floor next to the fireplace if I want. I can sit in the garage and cuddle cats and forget I was supposed to be like. bringing in milk or something? and someone else will just. take care of it. okay this post is mostly about the clothes thing because it's so liberating to not have to choose a new outfit every single day of existence and when no one cares that's really nice
here to explore (you can call me music, pronouns I'll leave up to you!)
