Me: Alexa, is AWS down right now?
Alexa: I'd rather not answer that
Wise robot.
That's a bit like involving your kid in an argument between parents.
There was a great response in r/relationship advice the other day where someone said that OP's partner forced a fight because they're planning to cheat on them, reconcile, and then will 'trickle out the truth' over the next 6 months. I'm stealing that phrase.

The very expensive EC2 instance I started this morning still works. Of course now I can't shut it down.
Mom: Alexa, did you break something?
Alexa: No.
M: Really? What's this? 500 Internal server error
A: ok maybe management console is down
M: Anything else?
A: ...
A: ... ok maybe cloudwatch logs
M: Ah hah. What else?
A: That's it, I swear!
M: 503 ClientError
A: ...well okay secretsmanager might be busted too...
