  1. Hello Tyra Ruby here UwU
    I liked your blog post about whats fake and whats real. its kinda hard to find out whats real and fake, I had to right click the image to see if the photo is real and if it is real another site has the same thing, that's how I knew it was real.
    Maybe next time you could put all the questions together, as in not having the what was the website like ETC, since the words look a little jumbled, Anyway good blog post keep up the good work.
