whenever i search it up its like “erhm actuchually??! you are supposed to use a semicolon between closely related independent clauses which are not joined by a coordinating conjunction!!🤓☝”

A semicolon can serve as a substitute for a period when the two sentences are related. Do not use a capital letter to begin the second independent clause.
Semicolons can also be used when listing items that already include commas. They are quite helpful for avoiding confusion: “I plan to visit Los Angeles, California; Chicago, Illinois; Baltimore, Maryland; and Dallas, Texas.”
