For context, I moved out of home when I was 21 to my maternal grandparents home to get away from a toxic environment with my (now ex) stepfather (that's a whole story in itself i resent my mother for bringing me up in that horrible environment) and moved in with my maternal grandparents.

I had a very peaceful environment for the first time (I honestly should've lived with them when I started high school), then when my grandfather died from cancer, I could tell my grandmother was developing memory problems and diagnosed with dementia 2023.

Going back a bit further my father was also diagnosed with Glioblastoma Brain Cancer in December 2022, I put plans on hold to see the disease through but during this time my mother moved in my grandmothers house to 'help' me with both my grandmother and father (which involved some silent treatments as we often came into conflict with each other and I would've being fine without her, and staying at her apartment instead after she left her alcoholic racist piece of sht partner she had two kids with, my half-brothers.

Fast forward and my Dad passed away August 10th last year, and I recently told my mother about receiving inheritance from him (maybe I should've left that until I moved out but I have booked a holiday for next year god knows I deserve it), now Dad and I also had a very rocky relationship (he was married four times, and gave me a lot of emotional and psychological abuse with that) but he was divorced at his time of passing and worked his arse off all his life only to develop brain cancer a few years before he retired, and he still left me in his will (along with two other half siblings from his fourth marriage I want little to do with) .

He was quite well off, and Mum knows it, she came to me yesterday with a sob story about how the renters for her apartment didn’t pay two weeks in rent, so she is in arrears and she wanted $1,500 from me to cover it.

I immediately got defensive, and asked her honestly “Is this going to be one request of many?” she got flustered and teary and told me her whole story about how hard she worked etc, I basically replied her finances (and her life decisions) are not my problem to solve and that “don’t guilt trip me” she then for some reason put it right back onto me that “I was the one guilting her”(???? Probably because she knows I will be angry with her demanding money which were from the life savings of her ex-husband she had affairs with two other men while still married to him), she said ‘don’t worry about it then’ and stormed off.

In the morning she told me directly “I won’t ask you regarding finances anymore” however a few hours later began huffing and puffing, walking louder than usual, and closing drawers and windows more angrily, cursing under her breath.

She then began not talking to me, not asking if I would like a sandwich if I wanted one for lunch, not responding to me when I told her ‘I’m going for a walk’ in the afternoon, and refusing to tell me that leftovers are for tea in the fridge, she has begun her classic silent treatment, and she wonders why her and I don't have a close relationship anymore if since separating from her partner, she now puts this abuse onto me when she can't solve or be confronted with her problems.

I shut my door last night to give her a message that I will not tolerate this bullshit silent treatment any more and that I am sick of it, if she wants to do this to me then I will give it right back to her.

A few days later Mum still continuing the silent treatment (She started on the 27th). What gives her the f*cking right to demand my fathers money? A man she cheated on twice during their marriage and had two affairs while still married to him, it's disgusting of her entitlement.

I am going to a lawyer tomorrow to cut her out of any share of Dads money and this silent treatment is what triggered me to get going with it, if I were to drop dead now estate law would entitle her to inherit everything as I have no children, everything I have from Dad is going to my paternal cousins.

For context, I moved out of home when I was 21 to my maternal grandparents home to get away from a toxic environment with my (now ex) stepfather (that's a whole story in itself i resent my mother for bringing me up in that environment) and moved in with my maternal grandparents in 2013.

I had a very peaceful environment for the first time (I honestly should've lived with them when I started high school) until 2017 when my grandfather died from cancer, after that I could tell my grandmother was developing memory problems and diagnosed with dementia 2023.

Going back a bit further my father was also diagnosed with Glioblastoma Brain Cancer in December 2022, I put plans on hold to see the disease through but during this time my mother moved in my grandmothers house to 'help' me with both my grandmother and father (which involved some silent treatments as we often came into conflict with each other and I would've being fine without her, and staying at her apartment instead after she left her alcoholic racist piece of sht partner she had two kids with, my half-brothers- he once said "The White Australia policy was the best policy Australia ever had") (Look it up)

I woke up again this morning to find Mum still continuing the silent treatment, I am trying not to let it get to me and yet it is, when I finish writing this I am going to a pop culture convention to get out of the house and in a positive environment.

What gives her the fcking right to demand my fathers money? A man she cheated on twice during their marriage and had two affairs while still married to him.

I am contacting a lawyer soon on Monday to cut her out of any share of Dads money and this silent treatment is what triggered me to get going with it, if I were to drop dead now estate law would entitle her to inherit everything as I have no children, everything I have from Dad is going to my paternal cousins.

Hello everyone!

I am in need of inkers who know Clip Studio Paint well to line for me pages from my comic chapter to be printed physically for a comic festival in late July. 

I am currently putting together the pages of the comic for print; however some older pages have horribly blurred raster lines that have lost the line quality when adjusting them to fit the new sizes of the pages. 

I’ve learnt a lot since then about image quality and now I need the lines redrawn in the ‘continuous curve’ tool to save time and to be up to a standard of quality for print. 

I have prepared the pages for you, and the layers are organised into folders. You need to trace over the line layers on top on separate layers (and hide or delete the old raster lines when done) and borrow from the colours of the old raster lines.

Of course I ask for this to be done in VECTOR layers, not Raster.  

Willing to pay $40 (Australian) per page, please note though I will only pay $20 upfront first, and then the last $20 when the page is finished and accepted. 

This is because last year (old post below) I had two inkers who did not do the job correctly after being fully paid upfront and I had to finish three pages super quick by myself to upload to the printer right at the deadline, it was stressful :/

If you are interested and happy with what I ask, please comment below and I will DM you! It’ll be 2-3 pages per person, so I can get it done quickly across multiple people! If the same person finishes 2-3 pages in 2 to 3 days I can give and pay you for more!

Thanks!
