How to create and meticulously maintain a web of lies that will span decades (or for the rest of their lives), while working together with friends to synchronize stories so if anyone gets pulled aside and questioned about anything, there are no loose ends or crossed stories
How to program so you have a privacy/panic switch that only you have and know how it operates, capable of hiding anything from porn to scientific research to chats with friends with a simple key-combo
How to become so nonchalant with lies that years later when you are finally willing to open up a bit and reveal what you have actually been doing for the last two decades+, that they don’t believe you because your skills in deception in order to protect yourself have reached too high a level, and your honesty causes suspicion
How to become paranoid and deeply distrust your entire family and fear for your life as you come to terms with your sexuality, who you are dating, and why don’t you ever ask that cute girl out from your school (who is also gay and later trans [and so we use this angle to our advantage to keep questions to a minimum])
what why are you looking at me it’s not like any of this applies to me no no you’re crazy I had a totally relaxed childhood where I was completely transparent with my religious homophonic bigoted racist family, who clearly wanted only the best for me, an atheist/satanic flaming gay furry. I’d never be forced to be baptized, circumcised, made to attend a faith-based ‘school’, play along with their crazy bullshit thoughts like why anyone would ever come to my country and how they should all go home (even though we came to this country just three generations ago) or why that colored gentleman is looking super suspicious as he buys groceries near his home on our side of town.
noooo, that never ever happened to me. I’m not bitter at all because they can be awful people. That’s silly. You’re silly. Silly-willy.

This hits home. Keep your head up, maybe we’ll get through it before we die.
This is literally the fucking story of my life, stay strong, I wish I am at the minute
