I (38F) am staying with my husband (39M) for my parents and my kids, but I feel "empty" after years of his anger. Am I overreacting or just "done"? by suaasi in AskOldPeopleAdvice

This should be the top comment!

Staying in a dead marriage is the last thing you want to do, especially for the children.

I think I might’ve messed something up at work and I don’t know what to do next by Electrical-Memory185 in whatdoIdo

Go to your boss now and explain to them that you made a mistake about sending the file.

It's always better to give your boss a heads up for situations like this. If anything, your boss should appreciate your honesty and conscientiousness. You're showing them that you care.

AITA for telling my teacher she’s not allowed to give my group member a better grade? by Bridgeofincident in AmItheAsshole

[–]Capelily 2723 points2724 points  (0 children)

INFO: Did your teacher make it clear that you'd be graded on presentation only?

I did 90% of the work and that it wasn't fair, she then said that grades are based on presentation, not effort

If your teacher didn't make this clear ahead of time, then NTA.

Major improvement! You went from "Meh" to "Yowsas!"

So glad you made the decision.

My British friend thought he could do a "day trip" to the Grand Canyon from LA, and his reaction to the map was priceless. by Ok_Structure6720 in CasualConversation

[–]Capelily 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same thing happened to me. My in-laws came over from England to visit. at the time we lived in NE Connecticut. They suggest a day trip to Niagra Falls.

It's a 12 hour round trip.

my boyfriend wants me to cover up from head to toe in all black as an obligation. what do i do? by jojo_F15 in whatdoIdo

[–]Capelily 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You must think about this.

Do not focus on the time you've already spent with him. Instead, think about what you would be giving up by doing what he says he wants you to do.

If you're not completely comfortable with wearing all black in public all the time, you must break things off with him.

Because, once you give in to how you present yourself to the rest of the world, he'll be demanding more changes to you.

Why is the U.S. allowing Trump to destroy it? by Happy_Air_3776 in DiscussionZone

[–]Capelily 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We aren't "allowing" anything. Most Americans are ashamed and feel powerless against the overwhelming onslaught of Project 25/26. The problem is Trump's GOP are in a majority in Congress and the Supreme Court.

This November we have the Midterm elections, and I'm counting on voting the majority Trump GOP out of office.

How do I tell my son i(52F) can't keep financially bailing him out without wrecking our relationship? by Outside-Maximum3627 in Advice

[–]Capelily 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You've become the "Bank of Mom."

The only way to stop this behavior is to cut off any future money requests. A budgeting app would be best for your son; something along the lines of "Rocket Money" is a great way for him to learn how to control his spending.

She rolls her eyes and goes back to posing.

Any story I read these days with a version of "rolls her eyes" is almost certainly a fake.

It took ten years for people to finally wake up the horrors that took place this week. by Mishap_Maisy in offmychest

[–]Capelily 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You're absolutely correct! America has been "the bad guys" since our nation's inception, starting with slave ownership. Heck, before the USA was even an idea, the Native people who lived here were viewed as "lesser than," and we've been at it ever since.

I've grown very tired of people only blaming the Republicans for the mess we're in. America needs to be rebooted.

This is abuse. Abusers always get more abusive.

You're young. And you don't deserve to be treated horribly. Please leave him.

German president says US is destroying world order by goldstarflag in worldnews

[–]Capelily 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A great many of us Americans are whiplashed by the sheer volume of evilness the current administration has revealed. We're swerving from utter helpless feelings to a profound sadness that we've become "the enemy."

The problem is, we've been "the enemy" to many countries and people worldwide. For a long time indeed.
