      Pick a dead relative! (I couldn't think of anything fun when I was coming up with my username for this site, so I ended up just picking the first name of one dead relative and the last name of another. So I'm semi joking about using the same method to chose your actual, real name that everyone calls you that I used to come up with a username on a shitposting site. But I'm also semi serious in that, if you'd like a family link, but feel weird about picking someone who is still living and treating you like shit--and who can blame you, I wouldn't want to pick them either--then maybe consider dead relatives. Did you enjoy hearing stories about your great-great-aunt who was such a character? Or maybe you have fond memories of your great-grandma? Or maybe it's somebody you never knew in life, but the mere fact of still being connected to your family history makes you feel good? Anyway, it's something to think about.)

          Oh sorry, I didn't realize. My family loves to tell stories, so even in childhood I knew the names of lots of relatives who had died well before I was born. I sometimes forget that isn't actually normal.
