I kind of just disassociated today in the car ride home. He’s also threatening to kick me out again and sell the house. 
Piece of shit dad gang hours who up
Men don’t be cruel challenge [IMPOSSIBLE]
Hey at least I got that one
I hope you find a way out of there on your own terms comradeTy comrade
That’s rough. Does he use the internet a lot? I don’t talk to my parents anymore, but my dad really started going downhill when he became terminally online and just constantly rotted his brain with right wing propaganda.
My dad started using FB in the last 6 months and my sister was telling me the other day that he’s now ranting about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce being huge Brandon supporters and that they recruited 40,000 voters for him. He doesn’t really talk politics with me because I usually back him into an ideological corner until he tips over the metaphorical game board and starts talking about needing to appreciate that at least we’re not the ones being carpet bombed and look how nice the weather is today. Granted this could all be coming from Fox news too.
I feel like these older generations that didn’t have the internet when they were younger have absolutely no idea when to turn this shit off and do literally anything else.
My dad has always consumed shitty stuff like Fox, conservative talk radio, or Drudge Report, but when 2020 hit he had literally nothing to do but be on the internet and it totally broke him.
Kind of ironic considering thats their common gripe about younger generations.
My father is currently Gaylor-pilled. He doesn’t have a problem with it if it is true, he’s just pretty much of the opinion that any widely covered celebrity athlete relationship is probably a beard for one or both parties.
Taylor and Travis’ main love in life is their jobs.
I think it’s his co-workers feeding him fash propaganda. He’s always been racist but getting into eugenics is outside his wheelhouse. He doesn’t have the internet so that’s what makes me think he might work with chuds.

Wtf happened to him… did he fall out the stupid tree and hit a branch, just before he hit the ground?
leaded gasoline. people who lived between 1940 and 1996 inhaled copious amounts of lead from car exhaust.

Till '96?
Is that why I’m like this?
The violent crime rate of the 20th century on a graph almost exactly matches the graph of lead exposure from gasoline.
So, maybe?
I have done no research at all but that timeline also coincides with a lot of other things, notably rapid expansion of suburban sprawl and absolutely massive increases in incarceration rate. Prison populations doubled in the 1980s, then doubled again in the 90s.
I think the age of the population has a lot to do with it as well if we’re measuring per 100,000 people. The median age in America right now is 38, but in 1970 it was 28. Older people commit fewer violent crimes I guess. I’ve also heard there have been some studies on how the Roe v Wade ruling lowered violent crime rates, even when controlling for leaded gasoline exposure, but I’ve also heard that’s possibly a bullshit hypothesis and I’m a dumbass so I have no idea.
I totally agree. There is SOOOOOO many other things and blaming lead feels very reductive to.me as well, but since it was the subject I figured I’d bring it out. The graph is if I recall about reported crimes and not prosecuted ones though

He was abused by his parents as a kid, and he grew up in the 50’s so I think that explains a lot.
Ah, typical boomer origin… in the meanwhile, can you try avoiding contact with him?
Already do, I only see him about once a week when he takes me to the grocery store.
Why does he take ye to the grocery store? Do you rely on his car or live in his house or somethin’?
Do you rely on his car or live in his house or somethin’?
That’s it
Oh okey… sorry man…
Jesus christ, so sorry you have to deal with that comrade. What a vile thing to say about your dead spouse and mother of your child
My dad is also into eugenics
Really sucks. Also forced to live with him for the time being.
Boomers are 9 times out of 10, bad.
3/4 of the good ones died from minor foot infections where they got denied insurance coverage due to pre existing conditions because insurance regulations hadn’t been discovered by the government yet
I was about to say hey my mom was a boomer and she was awesome, but she died earlier than she should have because of poor access to healthcare. She had state provided insurance, but where she was there were few specialists for her condition and the insurance wouldn’t cover the only type of insulin she could take.
Having a foot? That’s pre-existing right there
it really do be that way
There’s very few things in this world that piss me off more than bad parents
Sending
on the strongest of frequenciesI can’t imagine having to deal with that shit from your own family. I’m sending good vibez that you’ll find proper comrades and be secure as soon as possible <3
Sorry, OP. It gets better. My mentally unwell, abusive mom texted me from a new number just to say that I’m not welcome at her house even though I went no contact ages ago. She kicked me out after high school and still can’t let go. I think she’s still angry that I blocked her old number lol 😜
- I’m so sorry, wish I could help
The best you can do is listen to me vent I suppose, it helps.
I had to go to work and I’m tired now but I can always listen
One day you will be able to run away and start your own life. Good luck until then.
Sorry brother
Sorry buddy
Sorry to hear that comrade. Hope things improve soon.
Dads can suck (and it sure sounds like yours sucks extra hard)
