Need to vent!!!

So utterly pissed off with DH and need to vent!!
He's not doing any parenting whatsoever and I feel I can't cope.
I work full time hours spread over days, nights and weekends and, due to covid, he now works part time hours.
We have two older children (teenagers) who sometime get down atm and I'm trying to keep their spirits up while he doesn't really interact with them at all (when he does it's usually to moan). We also have an 11 yr old DD who has slight learning difficulties. He does no homeschooling, no entertaining, no playing, absolutely nothing and I'm exhausted. When I homeschool with her she needs help 100% of the time and then when we finish she wants my attention for other things constantly. I obviously love all my children more than life itself, but is it really unreasonable to expect their dad to do his bloody share of something too?
Just wanted a bath so asked him to do something fun with DD so she wasn't just sitting on her iPad and he accused me of going on, then went back to his phone as usual. In the end I got a game and plonked it in front of him and told him to do it with her. They started but now it's gone quiet so that's that then.
All I wanted was half an hour to just relax ffs while she's entertained by someone else. I'm exhausted and feel at the end of my tether. I actually feel like I hate him.

Sorry so long.

Your life would be better without him. He's useless.
