I'm sorry! sobs

What did they say?
I used to just never eat at school. I was always kinda jealous of kids whose parents gave them money for lunch or did packed lunches
"Don't delete this, might need it later - JP"
I ain't doing great.
My mum is at the stage of increasing heart rate, sinking blood pressure, both clots and excessive bleeding stage of dying. We thought she was going to die 4 days ago, but she responded well to antibiotics. She's stopped responded to antibiotics, but she's not in as much pain as she was last Sunday.
While this is happening, I'm at my sisters place to be closer and help out with the pets and kids. But I don't know where anything is or the rhythm of the household so I keep feeling like I'm getting in the way.
I think I'm going to get evicted in December, triggering another round of destroying half of everything I own because there's not enough time/money to move everything and I tend to downsize.
I feel like I'm losing my job. I've been given "bereavement leave" but I'm a casual so it just means I'm not getting paid.
Recently because I've suddenly got a full time (hours, not legally) job, I haven't had enough time to complete many of my projects or even really feed myself properly. Shops are too far away and apparently I will actually starve myself if I can't satisfy a craving. I apparently want kfc, I have perfectly edible leftovers in the fridge, I can't bring myself to eat them. This gets worse as other aspects of my life get worse.
I am finding I cannot make decisions about anything. The longer term decisions are even worse, but getting up and going to the bathroom has to get to a painful point before I will do it, let alone meal planning. If someone yells at me to do stuff I will sometimes do it, but there is no juice left for "initiative"
This thread feels like someone half remembering playing technomancers in shadowrun.
The people demand examples
Aaah another one (sorry, have had to cook a lot of group meals and am fairly happy to accommodate a lot of dietary stuff, but almost everything I cook starts with sauteeing a bunch of onion, garlic, and ginger) (best friend of a few years did not like onions, except when she didn't know about them in, like, burger patties, we just stopped eating together pretty rapidly)
Idk, I've been in pretty controlling abusive situations and it's taken me a long time to be open about them, even to my therapists. I don't think that's a level of duplicity that means my abuser is right for abusing me. That sort of situation makes a person cagey as hell and terrified of losing any social connections outside of the abusive relationship.
It might be nothing, maybe the couple actually do this all the time and nothing untoward is happening at all, but it happens often enough that it's worth not jumping the gun.
Most libertarians I've met are also nationalists. Especially ones that are anywhere near their local party. They tend to also be pretty extreme nationalists, believing all the war hype unconditionally.
I'm worried I'll have start this again soon. My boss and workplace seem very accommodating for bereavement but I've just handed off all my clients and I've been ghosted by workplaces before. Also, casual so "bereavement leave" is just me not getting any hours
Wild that a space with a high number of child haters also has a high number of groomers.
Also weird that it is full of people who have no sense of duty to their communities or anything outside of their immediate gratification.
