my parents were Bad People but i really own it. that's part of how i do the work. that's the tea. but as i reflect on so many other parents, Worse People by several orders of magnitude, i realize i gave my folks a Bad Rap. maybe i just need to re-frame their misdeeds
like how my dad and i would spend all that time on the couch watching his vhs recordings of old fleischer/looney tunes cartoons in which characters crossdressed. that was woke af. that was woke avant la lettre. and that's just one insignificant little detail.
I wish my parents did bad things so I could get the blue check mark approval 
first you get the mistreatment, then you write the personal essays, then you get the pity and the agent and the checkmark. that's the tea
Framing in general is undervalued and powerful.
Here for it. Especially as I learn about other parents, especially the really rich parents!
my parents were very flawed people too....but at least they weren't in the indentured servant business!
yeah, there's that, "could be worse, you know...you could have cancer." something like that serves that function.
i'm always doing that work. the work of self analysis
That's cool my parents have never done anything wrong
They sound like Good Ones
