so bc ive gotten a bunch of new followers recently and i’ve been slacking i decided to compile some of the better answers i’ve written to inquisitive asks i’ve gotten in the past, organized under a few topics. if any of the links don’t work, please let me know. if you have any questions about anything i’ve written please send me an ask, but i can’t guarantee answers; i’m lazy and have a huge backlog. i’ve also bolded a couple i’m especially proud of, but that’s very much a personal judgment not a mandate. enjoy!
