I live with roommates, and I haven’t do dishes

So here’s the deal I live with roommates, and I’ll admit I haven’t done the dishes in weeks. Between work, stress, and just pure laziness, they’ve piled up. My roommates are definitely annoyed, but no one has said anything directly yet.

Now I’m sitting here wondering if I’m the total AH in this situation, or if it’s just normal that sometimes life gets overwhelming and chores fall behind.

Would you call out a roommate for not doing dishes, or just let it slide until they get their act together?
