  • “a populist political philosophy, movement, or regime (such as that of the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race above the individual, that is associated with a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, and that is characterized by severe economic and social regimentation and by forcible suppression of opposition”- merriam webster.

    Autocratic-check Dictatorship-check Economic and social regimentation-check Suppression of opposition-check The only thing missing is nation/race above the individual and arguably their extremist theism could be considered sufficient for this as well.


  • As others have said communication. There are going to be some uncomfortable conversations, they aren’t going to get more comfortable by avoiding them. And the more important conversations you have the better you make the foundation for long-term success. Revisit these conversation at least once a year.

    Sex (and what “type” each of you like or want to try), kids, household chore division, finances, etc. The types of affection that you like to give and receive. Make each other feel valued and loved.

    You’re Indian and in an arranged marriage there are family/cultural expectations such as having kids until at least 1 boy, wife doing all chores and childcare. Deferment to your parents etc. These are all in fact unimportant in actually having a successful and (hopefully) happy marriage. Always be on each other’s side more than anyone else’s.

    If she wants you to take the lead, do so but keep it open for her to say no and listen if she does.




  • The laundering would come from making extra profit per bs sold because its charged as a full burger but only takes a cheese slice out of your inventory/stock cost. You’d lose some of it to franchise overhead and a corporate analyst would probably catch it at a chain when they get greedier but you could do small scale laundering for a while if you didn’t get greedy.




  • Thats still the same in the US. The portion of people willing and able to spend the money on making coffee not taste like coffee is just very vocal about it and chain coffee (starbucks, dunkin, etc) is pretty horrendous without other flavors covering it up. McDs is ok because they buy out a lot of the bigger “ok” suppliers but then you have to go to McDs.




  • I just don’t see him as gritty. Sure the movies with him are gritty but Craig himself does not give off a gritty vibe imo. He never liked the role and it shows in subpar acting which is a bit upsetting considering how well he can do otherwise. I held off watching knives out for an extended period simply because I had only seen him as Bond and I couldn’t believe people saying he was so good in it.
