    Okay but same though. Granted, I was always the type to just investigate everything (my poor dad had to take me to the library SO MUCH as a kid), but it’s definitely more urgent (??) now. It feels like you have to do the research just to be sure that you’re not on the wrong side of things.

      I feel you. There’s a ton of misinformation and bad faith argument out there. My favorite thing I’ve heard recently that resonated with me is “I don’t care about being right, I care about being correct.”

        Okay, I’m officially incorporating that phrase into my life. It really resonates with me because that’s what I’ve always tried to do, and it just makes absolute sense to me for some reason.
