Hello all! @sweet_pecan@hexbear.net is taking a well-deserved break so I'll be posting the mega in the foreseeable future. How are we all doing? I truly can't believe it's almost 2025.

REMEMBER, EM POC ONLY!!!

    vent post: family issues, ableism, anti-masking, anti-veganism

    Really hoping that I can move out in 2025 because my mom is increasingly pushing me to do things that are detrimental to my health. She thinks that my physical disability is mainly a mental issue (it's not) and that I can overcome it by exercising (I can't, my condition gets worse if I overexert myself) and that I need to stop being vegan to cure it (not going to happen). Also none of my family are COVID-cautious and my mom is forcing me to take off my mask around them just because she doesn't like seeing me wearing a mask.

    Moving out is going to be a struggle though. Last year I temporarily moved out (well, there's a bit more to it than that but yeah) but eventually had to return because I didn't have a good plan, I was jumping around and it was tough. And with my disability worsening significantly this past year it's going to be even harder. Maybe even impossible. But I have to try.

    So yeah, I'm going into the new year with a lot of stress. I don't know what's going to happen, really. All I know is living with my parents is not sustainable in the long term.

        Diaspora politics are fascinating, lol. My mom literally sounds like a Maoist at times (I’m becoming increasingly convinced that she actually is one) but then will also say reactionary things. My dad on the other hand is just a lib, he literally stopped caring about COVID before it became socially acceptable to do so.
