the cool thing about no longer being dependent on my parents, barring major catastrophe, is that I can start to tell them things about my life for the first time since, like, middle school
the bad thing is that i forget that we are in completely different echo chambers and theirs doesn't include things like "it is ok to be gay or trans" "it is worthwhile to seek treatment for mental illness" "you work to live, not live to work"
and while I could clearly anticipate this (as I was obviously not sharing anything for several years) it really sucks that instead of getting disowned or cool allies i just get ?people? who kind of dislike everything important to me
