I had been worried that cutting my dad off and distancing myself from him would put me in a difficult position with his side of the family but I've actually reconnected with a couple family members over how shitty he's been and it turns out I'm not the first one to stop talking to him, he's been blocked by like two of my aunts And my cousin

When you and your dad are basically one and the same...

He went to the grocery store yesterday after he dropped me off at work, and then I went when I was on my second break at work-

He bought waffles, chips, and hot chocolate amongst a few other things-

I bought waffles, chips, and hot chocolate amongst a few other things-

We were not there at the same time nor did we know what the other was going to buy.

Achievement unlocked I guess- LOL

I keep recalling this experience from last year so I made a doodle about it

okay so because i was having a mental breakdown number 69 of the month i had this really interesting convo w/ my dad today

essentially he was like “well you were feeling sad…because of dance placements? let’s just put this into prospective-“ then proceeded to go on the classic “you got a roof over ur head u live in a first world country you don’t have to fight for your food” yadayada

let me tell you dad, that spit grit and a whole lotta duct tape method that worked for you at 20 isn’t gonna work for your possibly nerodivergent but won’t tell you teenage “daughter”.

because that makes me feel really guilty and it invalidates my stressors!

this isn’t a huge issue for the rest of the world, but it is for me. because those placements show my improvement, because being trusted with a main role shows i’m good at it!

and because i associate those things with each other that means that they hold a lotta weight to me.

i fucking hate the “putting things into a bigger picture” method. it invalidates my stressors and triggers, it makes me feel guilty over my privilege for the seventh time that week, and i feel even worse for feeling stressed over something that’s making me feel stressed!!

and i know that other people in the world are struggling. i know this, and i’m not naive. they are not a part of this issue i have right not and i will not make them a part of it.

btw dad if you ever see this post know that i know that this isn’t a fucking perfect country. at this moment we run a good chance of getting a ruler that takes away my rights as a queer person. i will not act like america is perfect. and i will not ignore its flaws. i will not let your flaws in your methods pass as tough love because i don’t need tough love.

what you’re doing is you’re making me less likely to reach out to you if i need somebody.

FNAF ANNOUNCEMENT

So! My dad told me this morning that the FNAF MOVIE ALREADY MADE A B O V E THE MONEY THEY USED TO MAKE THE FNAF MOVIE!

WERE GETTING A SECOND ONE, BABY!

It just struck me again how fricken weird my family is. The memory for today is that my great great uncle (my grandma's uncle) was an artist and sculpted a life-sized tree out of concrete in his living room, on the walls of which he had painted a life-sized panorama of a small village in Japan.

Sadly, I never saw this majestic living room. But my dad did, and he said he remembers his great uncle dancing with a puppet that he had carved, to some waltz, in that room.

Hi holes! I was told by an iterator named DAD you may be able to do a certain stunt! Can you do a handstand without the assistance of 0g?

Dread Above Danger spoke of me, hm? I’m surprised. I was fairly certain he couldn’t stand my presence.

[shhbean]

weird "hey is this abuse?" thought that popped in my head but one time while my dad was teaching me to drive i wanted to like get breakfast and hang out with my friend so i texted him that and then went to go do that and then when i got home he was unpacking groceries and i was like oh cool whats for dinner and he was like meatloaf and i dont like meatloaf so i made a face and then he proceeded to scream at me for 5 whole minutes in the front yard about "wasting his time and his life" so then after that i went to the park behind my old middle school and stayed there until after sundown when my mom begged me to come home. my dad gave me a half hearted apology and there wasnt anything to eat so i had stove ramen

i just know my dad got a grand total of 0 father's day texts from any of his kids today. sucks to suck!

[venting-town]

And I still hate how my bio father is STILL ( not surprised ) dependent on me for his happiness and expects me to answer him and talk with him or else he’ll be sad and even then he still whines about how he misses me because he decided it was okay to base his main happiness source on his kid
