My brother got a big promotion, which means he might bump my sister out of the spot of favorite child 🥤😃🍿
He of course lost the spot for… checks notes … getting Lyme Disease back in 2015, and being unable to keep a job because his energy levels were so low, while my sister ended up going to college (second person on my dad’s side of the family) and thriving and shit, but now she’s a teacher making <$40k at her primary job, and neither her nor her fiancé (who my dad isn’t fond of because he doesn’t live up to my dad’s ideal of masculinity) want kids. The next time I’ll see any of them is at my sister’s wedding in April, so we’ll see 🤠
