hi there, i'm Layalu! :) she/her, 20s, here to post about anything that catches my interest ~
if you're here because you randomly saw me in your notes and want to know who the hell this is, you might have reblogged something with sweet or interesting tags (from here or from my DA or PoE sideblog) and i liked it as a "I Read Your Tags" gesture :)
if you're here to check out my blog (hi!! <3), first of all, i don't mind mass likes/reblogs at all, so go ham! and here's some notes on my tags and blog organisation under the cut:
personal tags:
#lay rambles - personal textpost tag
#lay art - art tag
#lay ocs - general tag for my own ocs
#oc: [first name] - individual character tags
#laya plays games- occasional gaming tag when i remember to use it lol
#[game]posting - might get used when i start liveposting about a game a lot
#saltyposting - inconsistent but i try to tag salty or negative stuff with this (shouldn't be too often though)
oc-related tags:
#lay ocs - general tag for my own ocs
#oc: [first name] - individual character tags
#other ocs - general oc tag
#friend oc: [first name] - individual tag for others' ocs (might get used as just "friend oc" too)
#oc things - on ocs
other common tags:
#art things - on art (includes writing and other forms of art or creative work)
#fandom things - on fandom
#laugh tag - when you need a laugh or smile
#sensible chuckle - puns n stuff
#animals - creachers :)
#people - humanity positivity and/or connection tag
#stories - often in tandem with the people tag, but other stuff goes here too
#nature is wild - cool nature shit
#current events - politics, news and the like
#deutsche dinge - germanposting
#days n dates - "tumblr holidays" and the like
#in the tags - type of posts with questions that ask you to answer in the tags
#misc - catch-all tag
#video games - general / uncategorised viddy game tag
media are usually tagged with a general franchise tag and a more specific tag, e.g. "critical role" and "cr2", or "final fantasy" and "ffx". the exact tags are a bit inconsistent between franchises though oops
i usually only spoiler tag new media, for about a year after their release
tags for triggers and sensitive content:
#partial nudity - bare chest (any gender) and the like but i often forger
#ask to tag - tag for "this may be sensitive in sme way but idk in which direction exactly".
i also try to remember tagging common triggers such as needles, spiders, sh, etc. things will always be tagged with the word only, so only "needles" and "spiders" etc.
When Amal surprised me by telling me she named her newborn after me, I felt like part of my heart had gone to Gaza and remained there ever since.
This part of my heart is now breaking. Amal, who's been on a poor diet because she can't afford better food, is unable to breastfeed baby Mina any longer, and is unable to afford enough formula to compensate, and now both mother and baby are weak and malnourished.
Amal is suffocating from the stress of having to provide for her daughters. Her husband Motasem is doing everything he can (recently, he was almost caught in a bombing while trying to get food) but they're both overwhelmed. I wish there was anything I can do for them.
I'm begging you to donate if you can and share if you can't. I want, more than anything in this world, for these kids to grow up healthy and for their parents to be able to rest.
