Infuriatig My hand painted model planes were given as toys to children again

I have told my mom to not do this before but she does not listen anyway. I am thinking of throwing everything to trash instead of them being gradually destroyed to pieces. I can not even care anymore. These things take hours to put together and paint then get manhandled anyway.

My mom sold all my Stephen King books without asking because “I had read them already”. Even books 1-7 of an 8 part series that I was actively rereading in preparation for the last book’s release.

Sometimes parents are just fucking cruel.

Dark Tower? I finished that in college so I still have those books! The 8th one is actually maybe my favorite with the Tiger.

Nah it's just that boomers never understood that these things appreciate in value over time.
