Frustrated (This Is A Vent, BTW); My father has a thing against me for being on social media, him
being afraid that something I'll say or do online will somehow get
misconstrued by some lunatic and ultimately ruin his reputation, with
very great emphasis on his reputation over mine any day. He
acts like a jerk about it around me a lot, too - somehow unable to
recognize me as an adult capable of making my own decisions,
rather looking at me as an overgrown child. Even worse, he
still doesn't fully believe me when I tell him cold-and-candid that I'm
bisexual, polyamorous, and a furry - taking a brick of salt (not a grain)
with him about the matter every time. My dad also has a habit of
ridiculing us kids collectively via his infamous verbal-abuse that we
euphemistically call "talks". Hell, I'm even afraid to literally even say
the word "the" to the guy, let alone stand up for myself. And he
wonders why me and my siblings despise of his presence.
