Notice too how, even in the texts her mother sent, she only ever looked upon her daughter's transition as a bad thing. Nothing about the daughter herself being bad, only her transition. Helps show just how selfish the daughter is, when she cares more for the legitimate disgust her mother rightfully expressed, rather than the death of the mother.
The thing is we wouldn't even know there was a distinction like that if she hadn't told us! I feel like she's so close to self-awareness right there, but missed it by a mile all the same.
Also, she seems to have cut her mom out of her life before transing, but contacted her specifically to tell her mom that she was trans - "but don't get your hopes up mom I still am not talking to you!"
Like, that's just shitty behavior. If you cut family out of your life, and sometimes there's good reason to, you don't contact them to tell them anything that might be upsetting to them. Unless you
want to hurt them. Hell telling them anything at all, even good news, is painful for them, because you're saying "you're important enough for me to share this news with, but not important enough to share the rest of my life with". If you cut someone out of your life you don't - or shouldn't - want them to contact you for any reason, so why are you doing it to them?
I can only conclude that the daughter
wanted to hurt her mom by telling her she was coming out. Very childish and very cluster B attention seeking behavior if you ask me. "You hurt me so I'm going to hurt you
more!"
Feels for the mom.
Edit because I can't quote: RE State Farm stooping the LGBT book program:
Good. I don't want to pay in any way for grooming. State Farm is a
huge insurance company for people outside the US. Tens of
millions of people have insurance through them. More have had loans through them when they were briefly a bank. A significant number of them are going to be allies in public, because of clown world rules, but privately think this is grooming. I'm sure the numbers of people threatening to cancel was
huge. And like any business, hit them hard enough in the pocketbook and they're likely going to change.
A metal radio station in my area out of the blue reformatted to some old school light jazz or similar boomer style music. Zero warning, just at 10 AM the music and branding changed
drastically. Metal fans were pissed. They called and yelled (quite literally) at the poor people answering the phone who had nothing to do with the changed.
Guess what happened to the jazz station? It flopped.
Hard. A year later it changed formats again, to some Mexican trash. And
that flopped too. A year after that the metal station came quietly back on the air. Same branding and
everything. As far as I know Clear Channel never even acknowledged the absence.
