I'm just a random chaotic neutral dude on the interwebs @solid_snake95 and I definitely get the feeling of family no longer feeling like family. It's rough seeing your family not accept change in someone or a situation, especially when its a positive and fulfilling change, just remember "The blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb." You continue improving and doing what's best for you.

@solid_snake95 Keep doing you. If I recall correctly, you needed some separation from your mom because you were the brunt of things for her. I recall it this way because I could relate and that's what was destroying the relationship with my mother. We just didn't do well under the same household. You aren't around much anymore, but you seem to be doing better when you do pop on. Having too much to do and not being online so much is a good thing. Keep it up, bud. Haters gonna hate.

Simile comments on YouTube bother me. They always make me think of the stupid grammar section of standardized tests. And they're not even clever. Bottom-feeder humor.

@verucaassault Thank you and yeah I am better but the overall family is just treating me like I'm the most selfish pos in the world

Something about getting older just feels kinda empty, im glad i can keep a good attitude and not be a bitter old man but i get bummed out thinking about the future and start questioning if i should join my folks when they die

My uncle is now in a vegetable like state right now as the doctors prepare for him to pass in his sleep. He could go any day now. Most likely on Christmas Day. My family is grieving already. They are mostly all shunning me rn thinking I should have left work to go to the family meeting to discuss plans. But I stayed up to date texting my mother.

@solid_snake95 You're probably not asking for this, so apologies ahead of time. But I just want to give my condolences, to you, and to bittydubs (if she's your actual sister), and well, rest of your family too. Always sucks when someone has to go. For what its worth, Condolences. May the gods grant him peace in the next life, you and your family the strength to move on in honor.

Some people are gonna be upset when you assert yourself. It sucks. It can be quite revealing. Especially when that means you become less convenient for them. I'm happy that you're prioritizing yourself and that you've found people who value you as you are. Good for you m8
