Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Our Rules:
-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
Sister Communities:
-
/c/TenForward@lemmy.world - Star Trek chat, memes and shitposts

See this is what I'm talking about. Sorry about your moms. I lost my dad as well. But he was an antivaxxer, a Trump supporter, and annoyingly narcissistic, so he got what he deserved.
(Still miss him though. He was the only person who understood me, despite our opposing political beliefs. Not even my mom gets me.)
A person's parents occupy a special place in their world, no matter the parent's beliefs or actions. Maternal grandparents raised me, didn't meet my dad until I was 20.
Dad was raised poor white-trash in a drunken, violent home. I was raised like a girl in a 50s-style sitcom house. I was already very much like dad when I met him. Wish mom and I had spent more time, but we're both self-absorbed assholes so we missed out a bit.
