She literally lives across the street from me and that was the first time I saw her in over a year. She doesn't give a fuck. I didn't have a phone for over half a year until last week. I called her to let her know I had one. We agreed to walk and talk. My dad died "with COVID" on a ventilator in February, but she didn't tell me until 16 days after. We were supposed to have a funeral this summer - no one visited/emailed to let me know what was going on. There was no funeral. However on our walk she showed me the new bench in the park that is dedicated to my dad - months later. If I'd not gotten a new phone and let her know I'd still not know about the bench or whether they had the service or if it was cancelled which apparently it was. Fuck retarded brainwashed family.

it's weird you didn't have a phone. And if you live across the street you could have gone and visited phone or not. It was weird of her wearing a mask but besides that it's mostly you being weird.

It's all weird.

I'm broke as fuck. My extremely limited budget to include a phone has been sidetracked by my summer/fall activism.

I did try to visit before. She didn't answer her buzzer. She literally lives in an ivory tower and I literally live in half a basement.

You didn't hear her weird talking points - nor try to explain the ruling class scams to her over the last 7 years.

Fuck her stubborn brainwashed closed mindedness.

I do understand, sounds like a narc parent, quite common, sometimes if they stress you out more than you enjoy being with them, it's time to go no contact

Not sure if she's that bad on this front. She's reasonable on most others. But this is a big one.

That's our default now.

It was already getting this way before COVID even hit as I was explaining the corruption of the world. I was not depressed about learning of dark things and finding deeper meaning and purpose in resisting it, but she was and had little interest in me being "born again" via my curiosity. In our spat yesterday I even called her an ostrich with her head in the sand. She doesn't trust CBC, yet bullshit was all she was repeating while questioning my "sources" without me even mentioning any, except VAERS which she shut down before I could explain it. I wished I'd mentioned her being a Luddite and brainwashed, if it even would have helped at all. I can't remember much when I'm angry and I can only guess she might be the same, especially since she already has memory issues since her stroke a year ago.

She thinks she's informed. She watched the TV and read the paper for information. She was a highschool science teacher for a year or two before I was born in 1970 then was a homemaker until the late eighties or early nineties when she managed my dad's GP small town clinic for a dozen or two year give or take. My parents were smarter than average by far (this is not actually saying much as average is shit), but they had limitations too, as I do too.

I couldn't even tell you how many hundreds or even thousands of productions I've worked on. Countless TV ads and PSAs, music videos, TV shows, movies, web sites, design work, presentations, events, rallies, DJing, etc. Entertainment, presentation, and the art of persuasion are my fields of expertise, regardless how "successful" I was/am. Add to that my curiosity to some degree in almost all things (including fundamental psychology, psyops, propaganda, etc - things not taught in school or on TV). My dad was a similar vacuum of trivia, but he was not critical or skeptical of power as I am. He was part of Big Pharma - even after it destroyed me with my blind faith in Scientism 13 years ago, along with the 2008 crash.

In short, I know what I'm talking about, more than she, and I know very well that I don't know much.

I wouldn't bother arguing with any woman let alone my mom, it can't lead anywhere, you can't change minds, it will just stress you out. It sounds like you went for a walk, a walk can be nice, going thru nature etc. I'd say for that long silences can be ok, or if talking talk about noncontroversial stuff like the weather, that's what I do with minor acquaintances or clients, you can't talk about politics and conspiracy theories and such. It's the kind of thing people have to discover on there own, they can't be pushed.
