Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

Eh idk, of course this is one of those "you'll never know until you're in the situation" things but idt I'd have that much trauma for protecting my life as need be especially in my own home. I mean, I'm frankly just as likely to have trauma from having my space invaded without my knowledge or consent as I am to have it from dealing with said situation tbh. He's the one who decided to thrust this situation on both of us, I blame him.

Breaking into someone's house and living there without their consent is aggressive. You're only saying that because I'm a man clearly capable of defending myself, what if some guy was sleeping in your mom or daughter's attic? Would it creep you out to know they have complete access to your family members while they are unconscious every night? You'd be fine with that, you'd say "well how do you know he wants to molest you in your sleep, maybe he just needs a place to stay?" And why does he have the right to take my house, the place I pay for where I'm supposed to be able to feel safe, and decide it is his now? What gives him the right, necessity? Why does it need to be my attic, aren't there people like you who are comfortable with strangers that would kindly open their doors for him?

My brother, forget about the potential trauma. You should seek help even without it.

I'm fine, don't attempt to kill me and you'll be fine too, problem solved.
