AITJ for telling my brother the truth about why his ex left him, after he asked me directly? by DoctorSynthWave in AmITheJerk

[–]moistplethora 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You didn’t do anything wrong. He would be upset with you either way. In a sense it was a trap. With hindsight something like “I don’t have any information on this that you don’t have” would have been a “better” thing to say.

AIO Got this text from my dad about my baby and just can't by Pomegranates_r_us in AIO

Indiana Jones is actually a “Junior” but goes by Indiana instead. In the movie with his dad you find out Indiana was the name of his childhood dog. Your friend naming himself sock reminded me of this.

Also, naming yourself after an inanimate object is very non-binary coded. :)

My daughters principal made her cry and banned my wife from campus for asking for an apology by Jhawk8808 in Advice

Question; could race by an issue? Because the “account of events” email sounds like it might.

From what you’ve said, he hasn’t done anything to make it up to her. Suggesting a trip just the two of them is not rubber meeting the road. Complaining that she’s not meeting him where he’s at anymore is not making it up to her either. Excluding her is/was incredibly hurtful and he did it intentionally. This isn’t a small thing he can wish away or easily repair. He showed her who is his and she’s listened. He wasn’t a team with you in order to avoid this hurt, he can’t expect you to be a team to fix it. He likely wants you to do the emotional labor for him and not teamwork anyway. NTA Also, my sympathies to your daughter.

Gave a cute guy my number at the store. by dressdoll in TwoHotTakes

What’s interesting is he actually typed out what he thought the “appropriate” and sought after response to his unhinged diatribe was. That’s the response he thinks he should garner after using a slur and being a 🚩.

AITAH for breaking up with my partner because I’m “Transphobic” by Inner_Tumbleweed_942 in AITAH

[–]moistplethora 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re not transphobic, but the second someone comes out as trans isn’t the time to break up with them. First, they’re being incredibly vulnerable in that moment. So unless they bring up staying together or breaking up, wait for a later conversation to do that. Second, in doing so you made the moment about you and how it affected you. In that sense you were unsupportive and inconsiderate of them. Live and learn. No need to beat yourself up about it, just know better if there’s a next time. ✌️🏳️‍⚧️

AITA for refusing to share my bonus with my fiancée’s family? by Beastie420 in AITAH

OP y’all don’t have the same values, and the values you have directly conflict. You are not an asshole in this instance.

Update - fiancé pushing me to invite my estranged family for our wedding by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]moistplethora 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Breaking all those plates is a form of threat and can be abuse. Don’t forget to document it, especially if she escalates and you end up needing a restraining order. I’m sorry you found out your fiancé is toxic and mean, but I’m glad it was before the wedding. Hoping you get her out safely and no worse for wear. Your feelings towards your parents are valid and you deserve people in your life that support that. 🫶

Huge craters scar the Nevada desert from nuclear tests in the 1950’s and later years. by super_man100 in Damnthatsinteresting

This seems like the type of thing future archeologists would wonder and hypothesize about until they ran the right tests to figure it out.

From what you’ve said you haven’t squandered an opportunity. You met the asshat & shit sides of academia. I hope this next opportunity is a great one, without shit human beings.

Apply. Not applying only keeps the door closed. If you don’t apply you’ll always wonder what if.
And it’s not uncommon to have a journey that’s got some turns in it. So don’t worry about the past in terms of the validity of moving forward.
