She’s pestering my sibling so she can buy food there (for the love of god Jasper LEARN TO SAY “NO”!) at some stupid concert over the phone.

…Infact most of why she calls my sibling is for the purpose of hounding them for money.

Oh, and she now owes by $20, and then went “eUgH! hE wOn’T sPeNd $20 On HiS mOm!”

For context: We’re all dirt fuck poor.

The whole “stop wasting money on frivolous things!” is bourgeois propaganda, but I mean come on now. CONCERTS HAVE PRECEDENT OVER CAT FOOD!?

    I got super depressed and bailed out of college for a bit. I got a job and bought a used car. My parents said they’d finish the remaining payments and pay insurance on my car during the school year if I went back to college. I had to pay my own way if I wanted a dorm since they live an hour’s drive away from the university and believe that’s a reasonable commute, but I did because my parents are awful to be around. They made me leave the car at their house and demanded that I stay with them over the weekends.

    I came back the second weekend to discover they’d sold my car and pocketed the cash. I stopped going home on the weekends shortly thereafter.
