I'm gonna be blunt, today is mother's day and it's not a good day for me. My mom had a mini stroke about 7 years ago, and it severely affected parts of her personality. It made her very mean, devoid of empathy, and more manipulative. It also made her blatantly racist and a bigot.
My mom is very much part of the "blue l*ves/all l*ves" crowd. My mom doesn't think that me, the only black person in the family, is black. Told me to my face "you just have a tan".
I haven't spoken to her in 6 years. It will never change.

To me, my mom died 7 years ago. Whatever is operating the husk that resembles her is not my mother. It's hard without her, I used to tell her everything. She was my friend.
There is no repairing that bridge. So if I seem more testy than usual today, that's why.

Ok this thread is a big bummer so I just wanna say, it's not that big a deal, the money I've been saving on this holiday for the last half decade is WILD LOL
