Yeah, that one little star doesn’t quite cover it, so here, please accept the Andromeda Galaxy instead.

Because this always needs to be repeated in these situations:

Donald is a guy who 1) knows very little about how our laws actually work and 2) is not interested in being honest. Even getting a tourist visa takes months for most people. But I’ll bet a large subset of his supporters will find it convincing.

Does the dog get hurt?

I live in a very conservative suburb of Chicago. Imagine my delighted surprise to see 200+ women, young girls and some men (my hubby included ❤) at the station this morning headed to the march. Several packed trains passed us by.

The universe is under no obligation to make sense to you.

I did Nazi that coming.

She wasn’t invited to the rehearsal and wasn’t asked to contribute in any way to the rehearsal dinner etc. She wasn’t given any spotlight during the wedding or reception and…

There’s a great, but harsh forum at Baby Center called DWIL (dealing with in laws). Those women have seen some shit.

“Don’t take it personal” - no.

Wheats the difference between in laws and outlaws ?

Cut her off. If the rest of his family can’t stand up to her, then that’s awful and sad, but you WILL be better off without her in your life.

Wow, she sounds genuinely awful. Honestly, there’s nothing you can do to change someone like her. It’s amazing your husband is able to see the situation for what it is and be okay with cutting his mother out of the wedding. You can only hope his family has the same view of her and decides that your husband and you are…

Yes: Be Done.

Recommending your post to get you outta the greys.

Go to a dentist & get a bite piece - it won’t stop you from clenching your teeth, but it will prevent them from grinding & wearing them down while you sleep. The only thing that helps me is relaxation techniques & yoga (which I don’t always have time to do, so I at least try to do neck rolls, etc.). I find that a…

I don’t mind if people use the overhead, but I hope the ones that put their bags in sideways get dysentery.
