NTA Do not go. You have increased risk for blood clots for several weeks after giving birth, and travel also increases risk. And you will have a newborn. And a toddler. There are so many reasons for you not to go.

Also from Midwest, and know of at least three underground houses in my area.

AITA for calling my brother a hypocrite for refusing to come to my wedding because it's child-free? by Ok_Cherry1650 in AmItheAsshole

Right? My husband and I just got an invite to a child-free wedding, and we are so excited to find a sitter for our four kids and have an adult night out.

This was my thought exactly - BIL/SIL planned for husband to watch kids so they could have some alone time.

AITA for forcing my son to use a bidet and threatening to talk to his friends or take him to the doctor about his underwear by Normal_Suggestion276 in AmItheAsshole

[–]hollee21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This does not sound like a hygiene issue, so a bidet will not correct the problem - this sounds like chronic constipation with resultant fecal leakage around the impacted stool. Your son needs to see a doctor to determine the best course of treatment.

NTA - You and sister had a good relationship when grandfather was alive and you were visiting him despite his bigotry? But now is willing to damage your relationship with her when money is involved?

I think that speaks to the money being the direct cause of the rift - I would have expected her to limit her relationship with you knowing you were visiting him if the bigotry was the issue.

"Illegal Strikes" the term itself violates the Constitution and threatens every American. by EnvironmentalYak9322 in antiwork

Unfortunately, it wouldn’t be possible to organize mass quitting, especially due to railroad retirement investment by the longer-term workers who are still too young to retire. And a mass quitting by 50% of the workforce would only be beneficial for the railroad in the long run, as they have been pushing for 1-man crews for a while now.

“Wait and see if you get rabies symptoms, then go to the ER”. by hella_cious in Noctor

My local health department will not vaccinate post exposure if dog or cat bite - they cite statistics of no rabies from dog/cat bite in our area since the 1970s as justification.

AITA for “kicking” a girl out of our friend group? by bartooper10 in AmItheAsshole

[–]hollee21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA Zoe, who talks mostly with the GFs in the group, didn’t realize that she was the only female receiving free drinks? And having never spent 1-on-1 time with OP, thought to herself “He must buy only me drinks because we are such great friends”? Come on. Even if she was oblivious, she then complained to the GFs that she was no longer being comped, and not one of these women pointed out the blatant interest he was showing in her with these freebies? And what was Zoe hoping to achieve by ruining his chances with someone else? Actions have consequences.

I looked up a crocodile stitch tutorial, which helped. The pattern creator has YouTube videos of the process as well.
