re: #24 goddamnedfrank

The ugly truth is that because this whole fucking country’s about the money that’s what this comes down to for a lot of (mostly white) people, the mental calculus of how much it’s literally worth to maintain a cordial relationship with demonstrably amoral family members in the hopes of not jeopardizing some potential future inheritance.

I was disowned by my mom. She forgot all about it. The sister who (I’m pretty sure) talked her into that still has not spoken to me. They didn’t like my husband. My husband said my sister was trying to get my share (of something I never thought about).
