And this may be their dilemma causing a lot of stress and frustration in their minds. And it's coming out as rude, sometimes dismissive attitudes. I know, I may be way off, but I'm speaking as a parent myself of adult children.

As for the time being, if you opt out of having an honest conversation which is a completely acceptable choice, then find ways to limit the time you have that will risk uncomfortable situations. find way to stay out, or away, give both parties time to have some peaceful solitude. I don't know how hard that would be but it's worth looking into.

hope this helps.
This does help, thank you. They've really been crossing boundaries and really doing everything to make me not want to stay, but I can't just move out right now so I'm stuck. It's almost pointless to try to have an honest conversation with them. I've tried, and they go back to zinging me every chance they get. They've simply "checked" out, good day or bad day they simply don't care.
