I have come to the realization that some of the people in my life have never moved beyond the moment of their trauma.
My ******* want to trauma bond and talk about all these things forever. They don’t have hobbies or social lives or friends that they go do activities with and quite frankly, it’s exhausting.
I moved beyond the childhood traumas. I don’t want every conversation we have for the rest of our lives to be about them. Why can’t we talk about something else occasionally?

Complaining about family:
So lemme get this straight dad- you’d rather make your child commute two hours each day to see you and my brother that I only get to see twice a year for 5 days rather than let me use a spare bedroom and have my cats live upstairs for a few days? Because it’s already too busy? Too busy in a 5 bedroom house? To have three bedrooms in use and two cats that are very well behaved and will only have access to half of the house? Too busy when there are only two social events planned and only one of them is taking place in our home? Does he know people live with cats all the time and they are a minimal disruption to daily life? And if I fight him on this I’m gonna be a “whiny bitch who always has to get their way.” He never realizes that he is just as much of a whiny bitch as I am. Where does he think I got it from?

anyone know if it is like a Mom Thing™ to send you links for job openings that are dodgy at best even when you already have a job, or is my mom just insane

the only one in my family with a perfect driving record, no at-fault accidents, and I'm still not allowed to drive my grandparents' car quite literally six miles, round trip, in an area I know like the back of my hand, where the speed limit is 45mph or less. Like something is going to happen.
Like don't punish me because your asses are shit drivers and have run your own insurance up 🤡 not my fault nor my problem.

Do you spend family gatherings observing how everyone interacts like some kind of sociology project since no one likes you or are you normal?

Family: "why don't you tell your dad what's going on in your life?"
Me: [sips coffee] "because my life is not his social currency."
Family: [awkwardly silent]
Me: "that's what I thought."

Shit my mom in law did to infuriate me this past week
•Try and but Baby on the phone with family while Baby was crying. Had to shoo mom in law away
•When we took Baby to the park, Baby walked around aimlessly (this is usual behaviour for Baby) and Mom in law complained about it. Mom in law was too sore/in pain to follow Baby which she didnt have to do as I was supervising Baby. When I suggested she sit on the bench, she initially refused. When she finally took a seat, she complained that we could have just done this in her backyard
•Mom in law wanted Baby to try the swing and slide. Which is fine but she ignored Baby's very obvious body language that indicated she wasn't comfortable with being put on the play equipment and only stopped trying to put Baby on the swing when Baby started screaming. Mom in law ignored me when I had told her to stop before the screaming began.
•Even after the screaming, Mom in law still kept trying to push for Baby to get on the playground equipment. I had to tell her no countless fucking times. I wanted to allow Baby to explore the playground at her own pace and let her decide if she wanted to interact with anything. Mom in law took issue with this for some reason.
•We have told Mom in law many times that Baby feeds herself. Just put a meal in front of her and she'll sort herself out. Baby actually gets very upset when you try to feed her. Mom in law still wanted to feed Baby just a bite at a time and just generally hover around during meal times.
•Baby needed a bath during our visit. Mom in law offered to bathe Baby but her plan was to have Baby stand up in the tub so Mom in law wouldn't have to bend over as far because of her bad back. Mom in law wasn't happy when I told her no, and bathed Baby myself. It never occured to her that a wiggly toddler standing in a slippery tub is a recipe for a cracked fucking skull.
•She took pale white Baby outside to play in the yard but didn't apply sunscreen before hand.
•Mom in law continues to try and push back when Fiance and I say no to something involving Baby. Fiance regularly reminds her that we're the parents and what we decide is the last word on the matter.
•Not Mom in law ,but Dad in law. We argued over a baby gate. They need one to prevent Baby or her cousins from climbing the stairs but Dad in law refuses to get one. He doesn't want to have to screw anything into the wall to anchor the gate and ruin the ugly ass greige aesthetic they have going on. Because fuck toddler proofing anything right? Fiance put his foot down, ordered a baby gate that doesn't have to be screwed to the wall (same ones we use) and told them that it being in place was non negotiable for future visits

This is why I have e reader saved several dozen fics.
I'm a schlimazel married to a schlimazel, both of our mothers are life long narcissists with dementia and an intense need to perseverate and control the narrative. My mom keeps forgetting that her younger son is dead and spouse's mom is looking to play big silly games.
Dastardly Daughter has every cavetown album ready, I've got steddie and shifter novels downloaded, spouse has vidja games prepared, and everyone is carrying extra doses of their anxiety meds because even though we love our family, we know when we quietly disassociate for a minute.
AO3 crashing so close to Christmas is bound to be the beginning of a few villain origin stories…

[Helios & Apollo]
Quick doodle of the ketchup and mustard gang (the COLOR pallets Im a mess)
This is, I guess like,,, a teaser to my actual Apollo design? Because he has an adult design,,
I've been debating doodling little comics and scenarios and expanding the ideas I have for my silly little version of greek mythos as a family djdj
Quick Disclaimer: The Greek Gods are deities and similar that I actually really do respect. I pay tribute to Persephone even :) My art and designs are just fun little versions I like to shake around like dolls and in the concept of like one big complicated fictional family which is different than the /actual/ gods and how I view them!

When you feel guilty for not spending time with your family of origin today and then you remember that they want this to be a hostile environment for you.

"Aegon was uninterested in Jaehaera once he realized she wasn't the boy" He was looking for Jaehaerys for a specific reason.
"Aegon couldn't instantly tell his own kids apart" They're small twins, and Jaehaera had her back turned to him; of course he couldn't instantly tell.
"Aegon ignored his children in s1, he only has an interest in them now because he's king and they're of use to him" Tom Glynn-Carney himself has said multiple times that Aegon loves his children. He didn't "ignore them," we barely even saw Aegon and Helaena in season 1, let alone their kids. We saw the kids ONCE, and even Helaena was only sitting in the room while a maid tended to them.
Aegon loves his children. And to my knowledge, there was never anything in the books saying he didn't. If you can't cope with that, then you should sort that out in therapy.
