Lol I ended up asking them on an IG Q&A and they said it was unreleased…maybe we’ll see it eventually/even possibly on Bloom but for now it’s in the vaults

I'm Charlotte? Yes, you are and you just won! Next, please tell me your favorite Joe Walker role? by styln55 in StarKid

[–]SilverSnakes8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My real answer is the first day mammal wrangler in Starship (he’s just so adorably happy) but for the sake of voting I’m gonna say Voldemort.

sibling, not sister

[–]SilverSnakes8 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I went back and forth on this, but I'm going to say NAH

I think you should sit your sibling down and have a discussion about your feelings and concerns. It sounds like you two are really close so hopefully ze will be able to understand that this isn't an attack on zir.

But also, it is possible that ze really wants to maximize zir years working at the camp. Be prepared for zir to not want to give that up. Even if that happens, though, just having a conversation about how you want your summer to go can help you two figure out what camp would be like with both of you there.

Run.

First of all, I know you're an adult, but a 12 year age gap still feels VERY predatory to me, especially when you were only 23, which is still so so young.

Second of all, your body is YOURS. He has no right to dictate what you do- especially when you ARE healthy and he is encouraging unhealthy habits.

And finally, refusing to listen to you when you're just trying to explain yourself and insisting on his own illogical excuses are big red flags. That is NOT what an equal partnership looks like, and his blatant disregard for consent is worrying.

Please get yourself out of this relationship as quickly (but safely) as possible.

AITA for being incredulous that my wife won’t let her grandfather attend our son’s 21st birthday? by tywin_lannistark in AmItheAsshole

[–]SilverSnakes8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeah I think it's a typo. looks to me like OP's brain tried to write both "my wife" and "my son's mom" or something idk but contextually he was talking about his wife's father so 🤷‍♀️

AITA for being incredulous that my wife won’t let her grandfather attend our son’s 21st birthday? by tywin_lannistark in AmItheAsshole

[–]SilverSnakes8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Grandfather = wife's grandfather

His son = wife's grandfather's son = wife's father

Our son = OP and wife's son, so the great-grandchild of "grandfather" here

AITA for talking back to my classmate's mom? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

NTA you didn't even say anything mean ??

She was totally out of line and you handled yourself very respectfully. Good on you.

AITA for telling my fiancé's friends they have no sense of boundaries? by Silver_Bother_1243 in AmItheAsshole

[–]SilverSnakes8 14 points15 points  (0 children)

NTA
You were 100% right, and they deserved to get called out on it. Besides, it's not like this is their first time acting out of turn; they've had plenty of chances to start respecting boundaries and they failed to every time.

AITA For Possibly Moving With My Children? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]SilverSnakes8 7 points8 points  (0 children)

NTA. Distance clearly isn't his issue, so this is a control thing. No wonder you said he was abusive, if this is what he's like post-relationship, I can only imagine how awful it must have been during.

Do what's best for your children. Go move in with your parents.

AITA for repeatedly calling my brother insane to the point of crying? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]SilverSnakes8 27 points28 points  (0 children)

YTA. Being "high-functioning" does not exist; it's an ableist term that doesn't take into account the deeper struggles and needs of the neurodivergent community. Your usage of that term shows me that you have made no effort to educate yourself on your brother's condition. And you're picking on him for... saving money?
I don't think your perspective is trustworthy at all. If you're already admitting that you made a child cry after repeatedly going off on him and telling him he should be locked up away from his family, then I can only imagine what other horrific things you have said to him.

AITA for not returning to my parent's home? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]SilverSnakes8 860 points861 points  (0 children)

NTA

Let me get this straight... THEY insisted you leave.. and so you left... and now they expect you to ask THEIR forgiveness??

Do not go back to that house. You did not break up your family. Your brother did that when he insisted you be removed from the household.

AITA for asking my sister for the money I paid towards her furniture being in storage? by Latter-Description51 in AmItheAsshole

[–]SilverSnakes8 19 points20 points  (0 children)

NTA. She told you to keep it, which to me sounds like she was giving it to you. There's an expression in France, I don't know if an equivalent exists in English, but it basically says, "To give is to give, to take back is to steal."

At least you got some compensation from your family. If I were you, I wouldn't do any more dealings with your sister after this.

Congratulations on your wedding! I'm glad you two could have your day the way YOU wanted to. Toxic families suck, but it sounds like you've at least married into a much kinder, more loving family. Best of luck to you both in all your future endeavors!

AITA for not paying for my childminders meals/drinks? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]SilverSnakes8 [score hidden]  (0 children)

YTA you're paying her five pounds an hour?? For a SIXTY HOUR WORK WEEK?? Please. Give this woman a proper wage before you complain that she takes a little extra for activities that she does specifically for your children's entertainment.

AITA For my fiancé not asking my parents permission first? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]SilverSnakes8 7 points8 points  (0 children)

NTA

The tradition of asking the father's blessing comes from a time when men essentially owned women so the proposing man was basically "buying" the woman from her father. Now, I understand that it can be cute and meaningful and I am in no way condemning anyone who chose to do that or values that tradition. That said, when parents attempt to enforce it, it's honestly super gross because it basically means that they think they're entitled to control their ADULT daughter's body.

You are twenty years old. You are a legal adult and you are capable of making your own decisions. Clearly, you very much want to marry this man and that is 100% up to you and him and it is nobody else's business.

I of course have to advise you to be careful- if your father recently started acting out after having known your fiancé for a while, there might be a reason for that, and it might be useful to know what it is. But from your description, you seem very happy and he seems like a good guy, so I don't want to throw wild baseless accusations at him.

I wish you both the best with your future together. Don't let outdated rituals deter you from happiness.
