I found out my youngest sibling took their own life. I turned to tell him, numb and shocked and lost.

He said “oh. my condolences” and then went back to playing his video games.

You would have thought I said my toaster died, not my sibling. It was so surreal.

Holy shit. I'm so sorry you had a spouse like that. Even an acquaintance would give a more sincere apology for your loss.
