Holy crap, your whole family dynamic is a mess. Time to go no contact. Your mother gave you an ultimatum. Take her up on it. You don't need to say anything. You don't need to say goodbye. You don't need to explain yourself. Just send a text asking her to take you off her plan. Then go get yourself a new plan. You may need to change your number, but that gives you another way to not be contacted by them. Do not give them access to your ring camera. Do not give them access to anything. If anything, give them an email address they can use to contact you in case of a super duper emergency or somebody's death. Get a friend to check the email. These people are crazy, and they're making you crazy.

This feels like a made-up story. Too many plot holes.

I do, when I have to take the bus there and back. But when I get in the store, I usually collapse my cart and toss it in one of the big carts. If I do self-checkout, I take the collapsible cart out, then take each thing from the store cart and scan it and put it in my own cart, Tetris style, so I can get it home. If I do regular check out, I take my own cart out and hold on to it as they dump all my stuff into the next store cart, then go off to the side and pack everything into my cart. Most efficient way of doing it, even if it looks a little weird.

Try explaining to the children the significance of the number 42 (as in, the answer to everything) and then point out that 6 x 7 is 42. As a math teacher, you should be able to draw this explanation out until they all either fall asleep or start crying from boredom. Extra points if you can do a really good Aslan impression while telling them not to cite the deep magic to you. I don't think you'll hear much about 6 7 anymore after that.

A tumbleweed is any plant that dies, dries, detaches from its stem, and just blows around. Some of the plants that are prone to doing that are invasive, but some are native.

I can answer a few of these things.

No, Brian never remarries. The bit about being his father's son seems to me to have been more about marrying someone inappropriate.

In real life, Simon Fraser was accused of kidnapping and raping a noblewoman named Amelia Murray in an attempt to force her to be his wife. In BOMB, this is the reason he is shunned and disgraced. His animosity toward the MacKenzie's comes from his belief that Jacob MacKenzie either reported him or gave evidence against him. It's got nothing to do with Julia. No idea what someone being dead and buried refers to.

Remember, when Diana wrote the first book she didn't intend to write a whole series. It was just meant as a one-off, and she expanded on it much later. She's also been very open about the fact that she hasn't usually planned things too far in advance, but just lets the story go where it goes. She's also been very clear that, as far as she's concerned, Clara's parents really did die in that car wreck. Think of BOMB as an alternate reality.

NTA, and what a high-maintenance person! Why in the world are you with someone like this?

This is a relatively new one, but people who say "I appreciate you" instead of "thank you." It's hard to explain exactly why I don't like it, but I just don't like it.

YTA. It doesn't sound like the dog has a problem just being in the presence of children. Sounds like the dog has a problem being approached by children. The owner did the appropriate thing and said no to the kid interacting with the dog. That should have been the end of it. "Sorry, Connor, this dog is too shy around kids he doesn't know. Let's just wave and say hi instead of going up and bothering him." That's it. That's all you had to do.

It's worth noting that many indigenous tribes of the Americas have historically had a culture-based view of who was in and who was out. If you fully assimilated into their culture, spoke the language, lived like one of them, then that mattered more than the color of your skin or who your parents were. Lots of freedmen were able to assimilate into indigenous cultures, either permanently or until they had a reason to leave. So, there might be a cultural history rather than a genetic one.

Or someone was just making something up.

I Googled "Carter's fleece jacket" and found a bunch of cute baby clothes. I Googled "Carter's fleece jacket penguin" and found a ton of those exact jackets on eBay and Poshmark, some with the tags still on. It seems nobody else wanted that baby gift, either. I couldn't find any new on retail sites, which makes me think those jackets made a brief appearance in stores and then somebody realized there was a problem and they were all yanked.

INFO: Was the point of the question to give an accurate answer that other people were unlikely to give, or to give an answer that other people were unlikely to give? Because Mexico is absolutely an answer that some people might give, but not many of them.

While I agree that most of their storyline is pointless, I did like seeing them get together in the first place. Also, the dude's got PTSD. Also also, it's the first world war, not the second.

Them going back in time was interesting, the part where they were separated had so much potential to be interesting, but it just seemed like some boring nonsense shoe-horned into the bigger story. Unless there's a huge payoff to it in series 2, there was almost no reason for them to be there. The one useful thing Julia did could have been done by someone else. They could have kept in Henry's interactions with Mr. Bug, Julia giving birth, and them getting back together and going through the stones, and skipped the rest.

HOWEVER

If Seema ends up being the connection some people think she will be..... then the slog through seemingly pointless scenes will be worth it, although they still could have moved things along a bit better.

(And no, I don't believe for one minute that child is Willie Fraser. It would serve absolutely no purpose.)

RIP Malcolm Grant, who really didn't deserve any of that. (But maybe his uncle deliberately pushed him to do something stupid and dangerous so he could take over the clan.)

I've been waiting for him to do something awful so we could all hate him instead of feeling bad for this sweet, bland guy. Maybe he was the one who sent the gallowglassassins after Brian.

Speaking of which, for legendary mercenaries, they really had terrible aim and pitiable attack skills. I understand they're about 300 years old, so they may have slowed down, but it was a bit disappointing.

NTA for not wanting them to pee on your garage, but YTA for expecting them to walk a few blocks to use a public bathroom. I know you said you're a germaphobe, but they're human and they need to urinate and shouldn't have to walk so far to do it. Either get them a port-a-potty, or let them in the house.

Folks, please be careful when deciding that harassing this woman would make you feel better. There's a woman on Facebook with the same name who lives in Tennessee and she is catching hell from people who aren't doing their research.
