My brain is so fuzzy today and being upright is difficult and a little unpleasant.
Also, I have absolutely no idea if I took my afternoon meds. I know I got up and turned out my meds alarm before going to the kitchen. But how sensible and productive I was after that I cannot say.
Which is annoying that I have such a gap at an awkward time.
My father and trans-sister visited later in the afternoon but too much after the meds time to be of any help in reconstructing the missed time.
Hours after they left I am still cranky.
I have spent years trying to give my sibling the benefit of the doubt when they went off at me about not having heard about why some person needs to be cancelled because of [insert crime here], none of which could I ever find support for having happened, or even having been actually accused, anywhere online that wasn't just someone implying things in a tumblr post. It is frustrating but I mostly deal with it. Today, however, my trans-sister let loose with the "actually, China never did anything bad to Tibetans" in what seemed to be an argument heading toward "Europeans made it up to justify anti-Asian racism". Because apparently I am the credulous one who has opinions based on a lack of evidence....
I met enough Tibetan refugees, back when I was pretty involved in attempting good works, who had first hand experience of bad things being done before they escaped, that I ended up feeling pretty angry.
Then I remember who my mother is and just have to tell myself it is genetics involved and my sibling can't help but have a very poor grasp on consistency, or reality.
I should have been a much more annoying child and stopped my parents having any more.
