This loser should be permanently put in a psych ward. If they're a problem there, just dump them into a prison for the rest of their life.

I don't give a shit how mentawwy iww someone is. If you harm a child, you deserve to face the most severe repercussions possible. It's not like this dude's going to be rehabilitated or anything.

Do you think you can emotionally cut him off? Seems like you're not there yet, regardless of how reasonable it might be for you to do so.
He's already done with us. I have nothing but negative feelings towards him and at this point I don't care about him. The problem is I still have to deal with everything he's done and said to me, and as weak as it makes me sound, I constantly get triggered by things and get reminded of him.

Im not gonna act like I know what growing up with mental abuse like that feels like, nor will I judge how it affects you and your actions. But, you sound like you're saying it's your niece's fault for not initiating a relationship with you, when she's a lil kid and you're the adult. That parts pretty ridiculous. It's your responsibility as the adult to be the one putting effort in until you find out gow to connect. Granted, I can understand why that would be hard if your brother is constantly putting you in a bad headspace. Shitty situation man. The results won't be your fault, but you gotta understand what you can live with and what you can't when it comes to how hard you tried. Make sure you really believe you tried before giving up, or that shit will come back for you.b
There's literally no way for my mother or I to interact with my niece without us having to subject ourselves to constant mockery and verbal abuse. When we did try, there was barely any interaction or acknowledgment. It was always incredibly awkward. My niece would just be sitting around while my brother commanded all the attention, cataloguing all of the trinkets and gizmos his wife buys him.

The larger issue is that my brother seems to genuinely think that an entire lifetime of making everyone around him miserable becomes null and void because he had a daughter. Despite both my mother and I going into great detail into how we feel, he doesn't even acknowledge it.

The last thing he told my mother on the phone before blocking her was making a mockery about my other brother, who had passed away almost a decade ago due to suicide. This is the same person who beat his last girlfriend and then forced her to come help us come up with bail money once he got arrested for stealing a friend's car while drunk and crashing it into someone's yard.

The part I don't get is, why does this effect you in a visceral way if you don't even respect his perspective? It's weird to me that you can emotionally disconnect from his daughter but not from the things he says to you. I don't know most the context, but from what you're saying, this part seems self absorbed.

Do you think he'd physically hurt you? Is that where fear and anxiety comes from? Cause Id understand that. But who cares if someone you don't respect tries to make you feel bad. You could get over that by emotionally focusing all your attention on other people and completely writing off his perspective
The terrible things he's said and done ended up giving me long-lasting emotional issues. Back when I could somehow afford therapy, most of it was unpacking and going over everything he's done to me. It effects me in a "visceral" way because he will never, ever face any type of repercussions for what he's done.

I'm "disconnected" from my niece because the few times I've seen her, she barely acknowledged anyone's existence. My mother and I were convinced she had some type of developmental delay as (as of the last time we saw her) she still wasn't talking or coming off as present. Interacting with my niece literally consists of sitting at my brother's home and taking emotional abuse while my niece just occupies space. Taking the emotional abuse just isn't worth it. He doesn't even want to be involved with us, either. When we made an attempt, it was literally just us sitting at his home while he showed us electronics that his wife paid for.

When we were younger he hit me a few times, but in our adult years he's grabbed me a few times. The last memory I have of him and my other brother was him attacking him while he was passed out of the couch, drunk. He's a very large individual who has a very intimidating presence. I was always afraid to defend myself and even as an adult, I'm terrified of him.

Shit. This is rough. Seems like there's nowhere to go if one of the 2 parties can't put everything aside for the lil girl. I personally would just not respond in any way with the problem person when they tried getting into it, just day whatever manipulates them to be less hostile and emotionally disconnect from the person and focus on making sure the lil girl got the best she could out the bad situation.

I'm not saying it's easy for everyone to emotionally disconnect like that or that what Id do is the definitive right thing. Waiting for the other person to do the right thing is never the move tho. Especially when a kid is involved. You just gotta swallow your pride and work around them for the kid.
The situation is a lot worse than you think. What makes it frustrating is due to how my brother manipulates people, he's never going to have to face the consequences of everything he's said and done.

I have zero interest in his family and as sad as it sounds, I'm almost indifferent towards my niece. I obviously want her to be happy, healthy and live a great life, but my brother has been such a horrible person throughout his entire life that I associate the prospect of visiting him and his family with fear and anxiety. It's not worth trying to be involved if I'm only going to get more emotional and verbal abuse from him.

have you told him how much of a piece of shit he is yet?
Multiple times. My mother and I basically cut him off and stopped talking to him. In his mind, he thinks we're "abandoning" his family and he tries to make it seem like we're evil because we're not there for his daughter. This is incredibly difficult as the few times we've seen his daughter, she barely interacted with us and awkwardly just stared around while we were forced to listen to him berate us and complain about everything.

I tried to explain to him via a massive text, explaining how badly he's emotionally abused us, and the second I sent it, he began typing a message which basically said "Yeah whatever, you guys are monsters because you don't care about my daughter".

His problem is he has undiagnosed BPD and manipulates everyone around him into believing he's not only a good person, but heroic. The only time he's ever been nice to us was when his wife was about to throw him out of the house for drinking and (apparently) drugs... and he tried to blame that on my mom and I. Lmao

Tbh I don't really care about him or his wife in the slightest. He has a daughter whom I can already tell is being inundated with his awful views. He openly said the n-word around her when visiting with his wife and his wife was acting like nothing happened.

Throughout his entire life he's never had any defined personality or interests outside of being an asshole to people. A few of his in-laws are retired police officers and for the past year he's suddenly become a vocal Blue Lives Matter supporter and will stop at nothing to argue with people about how Americans are lucky because "cops have been babying most of us for way too long."

This is the same dude that lives off of his wife and can't afford a Tesla, yet goes online and picks fights with people who don't like Elon Musk, lmao

This is also the same dude who presumably begged his in-laws to pay for his daughter to go to private school, just because they're in a diverse area

I mean you could have just said that instead of givin' me 'tude.

There not being any sort of distinct operational changes makes the idea of change easier to swallow.

My only concern at this point is that some of the programs I use may run into compatibility issues. Will 11 support absolutely everything I did with 7? I'd rather not upgrade just to find out that something I did all the time with 7 ain't gonna fly any more.
Everything I've used with previous versions of Windows works perfectly with W11.

Axiom posted...
Lol MS. I use Windows Pro and apparently a MS account will soon be required for that. I won't be updating to Windows 11. Ever
Just unplug your ethernet/disable WiFi for the initial half of the setup, and enable it after it prompts you to make a local account.
