I actually love the internet. Before then, you're the village's "crazy person" for wanting to cross-dress as the opposite gender. (Not that I do that, just an example)
Like crying is just a "girl" thing to do, boys/men aren't supposed to show emotions. Fucking "男子汉大丈夫，流血不流泪" or whatever bs parents say right after they YELL at you. (Wikitionary: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E7%94%B7%E5%AD%90%E6%BC%A2 "A true man bleeds but never sheds a tear") Like I literally do not understand it, wtf do people do in a funeral then? Only the women can cry? (Tbf, I probably wouldn't shred a tear given how toxic my parents are 🤭)
I know Lemmings are skeptical of tech, but I love it, just wish it was more FOSS.
Like just one example, now you can keep an encrypted journal that your parents can't break into (I mean unless they are intelligence agents or something), you can record all your interactions for evidence. Or just find a safe space to talk to people. Or just some escapism (tv, movie, youtube, games) to keep yourself sane in a hostile environment.
