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.

So am I but I still force myself do it because I don't want everyone to think I'm an asshole.

valid

i long ago stopped masking for the comfort of neurotypicals. but to each their own

[–] Psythik@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Glad that works for you, but I refuse to stop masking because I will die lonely if I don't play along. I don't have any friends, but masking has allowed me to at least stay in a loving relationship for almost a decade bow, and if I lose her, I have nothing.

You do you, but this mask ain't coming off. It's the only thing keeping me sane.
