Queer 30s girl who found community and hope in some silly gay pirates. Crafter, dancer, occasional podficcer, and dreaming of writing.
Just yesterday my mum told me that once dad retires in a month there's "no way I'll be letting him sleep in until 9 every day" and that he can't "undo 60 years of getting up and having a purpose". Yikes.

I literally got a PhD in a subject that I expressed interest in as a 4 year old and stuck with because adults praised me for it for 25 years and now I don't know if it's what I want to do with my life. I feel like that's trying pretty hard.

Right? Both my parents need therapy. Dad I think would benefit from medication. But after 60 years, 30 of them together, how much do they want to change things?

Oof. Dad and I have very similar atoms/behaviours, but I do all mine behind a closed door because masking, and all of his used to annoy me So Much until I realised I did the exact same, but he's a man born in the 60s so he's not expected to have the same social graces as me.

Mum told me I couldn't possibly, just that I procrastinated everything, I'm just late for everything and too lazy to do a bunch of tasks.
She says dad can't possibly have it, because he spends all his time going down rabbit holes or addicted to stupid phone games.
Yuhuh. No way.

Hehe there's one I just found called "amagone" but it only has 36 people using it so be wary.

Yeah that's so frustrating! I'll be honest I don't know how to do it on my phone but if I find out you'll know!

It's called "Hide Google AI Overviews". Not perfect but better than nothing!
