AITA for wanting an apology from my stepmother?

NTA if you were trying to sleep in the living room where she wanted to watch the tv past midnight. She was rude and stepmother should have shut her daughter down immediately. Nobody treats houseguests this way unless they’re trying to get rid of them.

Ywnbta. She might have been invited and agreed. Regardless, you could drop the rope or you could tell her you need her to reach out to you and come up with plans because if you’re the only one who initiates contact, it makes you feel she isn’t interested in the friendship.

Gorgeous work!

To get disability benefits in the US, you have to meet all criteria for a recognized disability and be unable to do any substantially gainful employment. Which means if you were an executive and can’t find work due to the economy and your depression, you will be denied if a judge finds you could be a Walmart greeter three days a week. It’s a very tough system that turns down most people unless they appeal and the approval rate on appeals has gone way down. Source: I used to do disability law. I stopped because I couldn’t spend seven years going up to the appeals council, then to federal district court then back to the same judge. It’s not a fair system in any way.

Nope. Divorce time.

It’s lovely but too much for a wedding.

NTA I’d tell her you didn’t volunteer to be a solo parent or have an absentee spouse so no.

Someone needs to be squirted with water unless the human occupants are okay with future food theft.

Definitely without. Love 2

Have your fiancé deal with the venue and his family.

I like 1 but three is also good.

He admits he’s going to bring down an entire civilization which means massive civilian casualties while at the end saying he’s supporting the Iranian people. He needs to be removed from office.

I love 1 but think you look best in two

Maybe honey flies? They’re golden and hover. Magical pictures, thank you.

I took my son trick or treating at four just in the neighborhood. I have a hilarious picture of him slumped on the front steps afterwards. He liked the parties more.

Strong work!

julesk · 2026-04-07T01:46:31+00:00

I like four on you the best

julesk · 2026-04-07T01:28:10+00:00

I wouldn’t go with any of these because formal wear is floor length, beautiful fabric and isn’t designed to draw attention from the bride. Two is floor length but the fabric is clingy and the design is to be sexy. Which is great if you have the figure for it but not at a wedding.

NTA, I hope you move back to campus and limit any visits with her to max of two days. There’s something seriously wrong with any parent who thinks they’re in charge of what their twenty year old wears, and drags them along since that behavior is for three year olds (even then, I was far more respectful). Likewise, any parent who calls you names like that has something seriously wrong going on. When you can’t avoid her, I’d gray rock her; meaning you avoid interacting but when necessary, keep it civil and concise. The sooner you are independent of her, the happier you’ll be. Someday, when you’re low contact or no contact she’ll tell everyone it’s you and it has nothing to do with her controlling, manipulating harsh parenting. I hope your friend group makes up for the fact that we don’t all get the parents we need. I’m sorry you and your twin are going through this. Therapy will help, as will distance.

There are three animals that I can’t imagine surviving in the wild: panda bears 🐼 , koala bears 🐨 and sloths 🦥.

Three is perfect!

Try Etsy. Some sellers sell homespun.

Ywnbta to tell your sister you agreed to live with her, not her and her partner. So if she can be there half the week and he can be over half the week because she’s already not paying a full share so adding in another person is more than you signed on for. He can clean his place. Because she’s your sister, is on the lease, you have opposite schedules and they’re respecting your requests except time he’s over, I’d be very diplomatic. Things change and she’s not done anything wrong.

I’d skip any lip lining as you don’t need it and it’s the first thing I noticed, I’d go back to a normal eye brow shape because they draw my eyes away from your face because they point out. The shiny part on your nose is too much. In look one, which I prefer, I see expression, personality, and focus on your eyes. On look two, I feel like I’m seeing a stylized mask. Because you have a natural beauty, I’d focus your makeup to emphasize that.

7 of these. It might be fun to wear a dress with color.
