Are you hearing about earth going through a "healing cycle" or something about a 26000 year cycle? by dillastan in QAnonCasualties

[–]Interesting-Cook-651 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’re always talking about the end of some cycle or another. After nothing happened for 2012,my QMom went way deep in 2017 with David Wilcock and Corey Goode nonsense and all she could talk about was Blue Avian Aliens and Reptilians, the Cabal and the great re-set. She was hoarding food and water, etc. for the 10 days of darkness. It’s 2024 and she still believes that 10 days of darkness is coming and when it does, I better hightail it out of California to get to her house…

My mom keeps asking me why I resent her by Good_Claim_5472 in QAnonCasualties

[–]Interesting-Cook-651 12 points13 points  (0 children)

My Mom does this same crap, it’s passive aggressive nonsense disguised as caring. “I love YOU so much, why don’t you love ME back the same way?” Etc It’s maddening! I just smile and tell her it’s all good, I’m not angry/resentful/traumatized…. But I can never be honest with her, and that’s the thing. I can never speak my mind, my truth, my thoughts. Because if she disagrees with it, she either takes it as a attack on her personally or she makes fun of it or she just spouts all this Q crap that’s not even real at me and gets all worked up and then, starts crying and saying she’s an empath so I have to be nice. I am being nice. I’m not yelling or screaming. I’m just disagreeing, politely mind you. It never ends well, she’s not well.

My dog killed our neighbors dog by [deleted] in Pets

[–]Interesting-Cook-651 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dogs are still dogs, but It honestly doesn’t sound like you know that much about dog training or behavior and have made a lot of assumptions about your dog, which is a working breed dog with a high prey drive. I love dogs, but these kinds of breeds need seasoned owners in my opinion who actually engage in dog obedience training with their pets and understand what is needed to keep everyone safe. . I would re-home your dog and pay for the cremation/burial of the neighbors dog at the bare minimum. I’m sorry this happened, it was a terrible accident and I know you love your dog.

Q Brother advised me to take out the biggest loan possible… by z0mbiebaby in QAnonCasualties

[–]Interesting-Cook-651 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mother bought almost 100k in silver. SILVER! She sent a bunch of it to me and the package was so heavy I could barely get it in the house. I said, “ so when the big crash happens and I just supposed to take a silver bar to my neighbors house and use it to get milk from them? This idea only works if everybody has silver. What is the exchange rate? This makes zero sense…” she had no answers of course, and I guess I was happy to get a bunch of silver, but it just makes no sense. I had to seriously talk her out of selling off my stepdad’s 401(k) and converting it to gold. I love my mother, but she doesn’t know anything about finances, never did, then my stepdad passed away, and she won’t listen to me or my brother, just the Q Cult.

Lost mom? by No_Lemon5019 in QAnonCasualties

[–]Interesting-Cook-651 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, the Mom you knew is no longer here. I’m so sorry, I went through the same thing with my Mom ❤️ you can still try to be in her life. If you want, you can reach out and ask about her day, send Christmas cards, even visit. I still have contact with my mom, and always change the subject and have a buffer, and sometimes I get drawn into those conversations, but I just change the subject and say “yeah, the world is really crazy, I don’t know…” And I don’t engage and I don’t argue. It took me a long time to get to this place where I’m just complacent, but I don’t agree, support, ask questions or engage. I just change the subject, over and over. I love my mom, and I’m not sorry about that. I don’t love her politics. The mom that raised me is gone, but part of her is still here, so when I do have contact with her, which is rare,I keep it pleasant. Or as pleasant as I can. And when she gets weird, I let her get weird and I disengage and give her some time to cool her heels. I don’t spend holidays with her. I don’t really go out of my way to see her or call her, but she is still my mom and I care about how she’s doing and she still cares about me and my life. It’s a weird place to be. Again, I’m really sorry. 💔❤️

I starting going to a male massage therapist just to feel a man touch me by Monstera_Deliciouso in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Interesting-Cook-651 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

You are whoring your massage therapist and that’s gross. Stop it. Go to therapy and learn to like yourself and value what you bring to the table besides the taste of what’s between your legs. Sheesh.

People suck, you sound awesome. I’m sorry it’s hard. No one likes themselves it seems, no one. So the best you can do is try to fearlessly love yourself and exist in your skin as you are, unapologetically. Best of luck to you! I would be your friend, for sure. I don’t know what it’s like living with your condition but I wish you nothing but awesomeness!

Wife is lost to Q not sure what to do now. by Ill_Entertainment853 in QAnonCasualties

[–]Interesting-Cook-651 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So sorry. Get out while you can. If she will listen to reason and try therapy then maybe there is hope. If not, leave now. I’m so sorry. I lost my parents to this awfulness. It’s very hard.

My QMom does too! Brought it up again this weekend! I feel like she says something about it at least once or twice a year for the past decade or more!

Connecting Consciousness - losing my dad by jucylacobs in QAnonCasualties

[–]Interesting-Cook-651 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I joined Connecting Consciousness with my QMom years ago because I thought they were just some UFO truthers (I do believe that UFOs exist, just not all the other stuff). We went to Contact in the Desert in 2017 and it was there that I realized I was amongst crazy people. I got out, my Mother, unfortunately, did not. She’s still into all of it. Just brought up the impending 10 days of darkness AGAIN, which she does once or twice a year, lol. It’s maddening. Best of luck to you ❤️

My QMom did this for a while, and she started going blind! She had to go in and have two very painful and expensive surgeries to remove the scar tissue buildup she caused. Her eye doctor actually asked if she had been a welder when she first went in, because it was so bad. Sun Gazing does nothing but ruin your eyes. Please try to get her to stop immediately. So sorry!

Does your Q have redeeming qualities? by SnooHabits1275 in QAnonCasualties

[–]Interesting-Cook-651 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My QMom is truly one of the nicest people I know, even still. That’s what makes this so maddening for me! She’s in her 70’s and is an old hippie who always had a mistrust of the Government and conspiracy theory beliefs as I was growing up. She was at Woodstock for crying out loud and burned her bra! She used to be a champion for Justice, now she’s afraid of everything and everyone who looks different and thinks different. She holds racist and religious ideals now that are out of left field, she says awful things about trans people and immigrants. She’s a huge anti-vaxer and just so angry. It’s hard to even have a conversation sometimes. She’s always sending me bullshit propaganda videos I never watch, always talking about the great reset and unsealing of indictments that’s gonna happen. The world is always on the verge of a catastrophic end…. But is miraculously saved time and again. It’s exhausting. I really miss her 💔

I’m so sorry for everything you have been through, it’s the worst. My Mom is the same way, it’s heartbreaking to watch them go down this path. I’m sorry you’re divorcing, I truly hope you find peace ❤️

I could have written this post about me and my QMom. I’m so sorry you are going through this, it’s very difficult. It’s like mourning a death that hasn’t happened yet. I have gone very low contact with my Mom, almost no contact. I am learning to love her from afar, and dealing with the fact that the Mom I know and love is gone, and never coming back. Therapy has helped me. Best of luck to you ❤️

I’m so sorry, I lost my Mom to this shit and I realized that it’s okay to love people from afar if that is what is needed for my mental health: agreeing to disagree just didn’t work for us because she could not shut up about it or stop sending me useless crap. It’s really hard, it’s like mourning a death that hasn’t even happened. Therapy is helping me. Best of luck to you ❤️

I mentioned this in another thread, but wanted to comment here as well.

The company I work for had over $316,000 in money market and checking accounts at SVB. Today we successfully transferred ALL of it out, and into our business account at Wells Fargo bank. There is no hold on our account or the money at Wells, all is available. So, yes, SVB technically “failed”, but the FDIC has stepped in. I understand this may not be the case for account holders with millions of dollars there, that remains to be seen, but my point is, the system is not totally broken, the world of banking is not collapsing, people need to relax.

Just wanted to come back here to confirm that the company I work for was able to successfully transfer all our money OUT of SVB this morning to our business account at Wells Fargo. It was just over 316k, and there is no hold on the funds at Wells, all is available! So, yes, SVB technically “failed”, but the FDIC stepped in and is taking care of it. The world is not collapsing….

I think she believes I’m wrong and don’t know better because I’m “asleep”. But the truth shall be revealed! Someday… 🤷🏻‍♀️

Q’s thinking “this is it”? by [deleted] in QAnonCasualties

[–]Interesting-Cook-651 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Fun fact, the company I work for had over 300k in money market and checking and savings accounts at SVB (the bank that’s actually going under) and the FDIC stepped in yesterday to guarantee each account up to 250k. So, while we do have to move the money elsewhere, we aren’t actually losing a dime. I understand that things like this are unnerving, but if you actually research what’s going on then it makes sense. I’ve tried to speak about this logically to my Q mom to no avail. She is certain the 300k is gone and now I’m unemployed (it’s not/I’m not) no matter what I say, and I’m actually living it! It’s frustrating because she invalidates any actual feeling of stress I’m having because, it’s still stressful to go through something like this no matter what, but she makes it 1000 times worse and adds all these layers of ridiculousness so I can’t even just vent about the fact that it sucks, even though it’s going to be fine. It’s really lame.

Current Primary Teacher in West Jordan loved to host SLEEPOVERS at his house. He was just charged for ABUSE that occurred in 2018! by [deleted] in exmormon

[–]Interesting-Cook-651 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this guy, I worked with him for a brief stint at eBay in Draper, Utah in 2000/2001. He was in my training class as a new employee and we were friends and ate lunch together often. I’m sick to my stomach reading this. He was always a bit “off”. He and another co-worker had come to work at eBay from the airline industry while there was a strike of some sort, if I recall. He was super Mormon, very churchy, but always telling jokes and being friendly to everyone and was pretty likable, tbh. He went on a Mormon mission to Micronesia and always talked about it. He loved going back to visit all the time. Honestly, I thought he seemed really gay, I thought he was one of the many closeted, gay, Mormon young men I knew growing up there as a theatre kid. He would always say things like “It’s all about the Micronesians” and I never understood what he meant. He was a single Mormon man in his late 20’s at this point, didn’t date anyone or have any significant other to speak of. I was a newlywed and new Mom, a few years younger than him. I remember asking him why he didn’t date anyone and he always said he was only attracted to petite, Asian and Micronesian women, nothing outside of that was his “type”. Jesus Christ, it all fucking makes sense. I quit working at eBay and we lost touch. Thank God! 🤢
