Teen Says Her Sister Skipped Her Graduation Due to a ‘Really Bad Headache' — but She Was Doing This ‘All Day' Instead
A Reddit user admitted that she's upset about her sister skipping her graduation and not congratulating her
The teen claimed that the sibling is lying about the reason she bailed last-minute on the graduation ceremony
'My mom said I need to forgive her, and I know I need to, but right now I don't think I can,' the graduate wroteA recent high school graduate is still reeling from her sister pushing her buttons on graduation day and then abruptly skipping out on the ceremony.
The teen detailed the drama on Reddit's 'Am I the A------' forum, where she claimed her sister lied about why she skipped the graduation.
'My sister has bad social anxiety and doesn't leave the house often,' she explained. 'She told me all week she was gonna go to my graduation, but then an hour before we were supposed to leave, she canceled.'
'She said she had a really bad headache, but all day she was fine; she was in her room yelling, talking to friends online,' she continued. 'Now I think if you have a headache THAT BAD, you wouldn't be 2 inches from your computer screen playing video games.'
The graduate is not only bummed about the sister's absence.
'What makes it worse is she never said sorry, she never came up and said good job — nothing,' she recalled. 'Even at my party afterward, she came in, talked to everyone else but not me and left.'
'I would have maybe forgiven her if she came to me personally afterward and said congratulations, but she never did,' she added. 'My mom said I need to forgive her, and I know I need to, but right now I don't think I can.'

Wondering if she's overreacting, she asked Redditors, 'Am I the a------ for not forgiving my sister for skipping my graduation?'
Most readers assured her that she's not in the wrong in this situation. 'Her not even giving you a pat on the back was the icing on the cake,' one person replied. 'You don't need to hold this against her for the rest of your life, and I don't think you will, but nobody should fault you for being upset.'
Unlike the graduate's sister, several Redditors congratulated the teen.
'This was a big one for you. Congrats,' one wrote. 'Don't let this crappy behavior sour your moment. Focus on the people who celebrate you.'

A Big, Pending Case Unites and Divides the Music Industry Over Fraud in Streaming
Hello, hello. Welcome back to Soundbite. Yesterday I spent part of the day at a conversation about fraud in the music business. It was partially put together by Katherine C. Reilly, the former head of the complex frauds and cybercrime unit for the US Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York. Previously, she helped bring the case against Michael Smith, who is accused of using generative artificial intelligence to make songs and drive streams to them to the tune of $10 million. The results of the case could set a major precedent in the streaming era. Smith's lawyers didn't immediately respond to a request for comment. During the conversation, Reilly gave some backstory on how the case came together, and the audience got a little heated over the current state of fraud prevention in the streaming world. We'll dive in. Also, my calendar is booking up pretty quickly, but if you'll be in New York next week for all the music industry and Tribeca happenings, let me know. I'd love to meet with some more people.

‘Wicked: For Good' Trailer Reveals An Action-Packed Sequel With A Lot Of Heart
Wicked: For Good Credit: Universal Wicked is one of my favorite Broadway musicals and I was absolutely blown away by the film adaptation from Jon M. Chu and Universal Pictures last year. Despite the long run-time, I was completely engrossed throughout. I rank it as one of the best stage-to-film adaptations ever made, with award-worthy performances from Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande. It was a little disappointing that the movie was split into two parts, but on the plus side we get to look forward to the sequel, Wicked: For Good. The title is mildly awkward, though it's taken from the musical's final act banger track, 'For Good' which is effectively the culmination of the relationship between Elphaba – aka the Wicked Witch of the West – and Galinda – aka Glinda the Good Witch. She's not a bad witch, she's a good witch. Then again, so is Elphaba, even though the Wizard Of Oz's propaganda machine would have the citizens of Oz think otherwise. We see that at work in the new trailer, which highlights the relationship of the two witches but gives us glimpses of the anti-Wicked Witch Of The West campaign as well. We also see the Cowardly Lion, the Tin Man and the Scarecrow along with Dorothy from Kansas, as they approach the Great And Powerful Oz: Wicked: For Good Credit: Universal When you think about it, Dorothy is an awfully strange assassin for the Wizard to choose to send after his magical rival. Strange but effective, if The Wizard Of Oz is anything to go by, though without spoiling things, this is obviously a much different story than L. Frank Baum's book and the classic film adaptation. It's also a very different story from the novel Wicked by Gregory Maguire, which leans a lot darker and more cynical than the Broadway show and the films. It's quite the chain of adaptations. Baum's book (which was allegory for the silver vs gold standard debate at the time) to the classic Judy Garland film to the Maguire book to the stage show to the new pair of films. Will we get a Wicked video game next? I'd play it. I'm hopeful that the second film fleshes out some of the action in the second act of the stage show. For obvious reasons, that's a little truncated and glossed over in the musical. Film, as a medium, opens up some fun opportunities for bigger action set-pieces as well as intimate close-ups. This is definitely at the top of my most-anticipated films of 2025 list. Here's the trailer: Wicked: For Good releases on November 21st, 2025. Read my review of Wicked right here.
