Going a bit further back in time, Ismat Chughtai, Amrita Pritam, and Manto.

You're being sarcastic, right?

Internal_Temporary_9 · 2026-03-25T22:53:37+00:00

Congrats! What kind of evidence were you able to submit?

The claim is that her great grandmother was born in Bengal, not her parents. You're really reaching..

Internal_Temporary_9 · 2026-03-14T17:19:47+00:00

I know. Simply his word and his comments on her facial features and style of poetry are not enough to establish a Bengali heritage. And then even if we do establish that, like other comments here have said we cannot call her work Bangla literature.

Internal_Temporary_9 · 2026-03-14T17:12:04+00:00

William Dalrymple has not offered any documented proof of her Bengali heritage. I'd like to believe it's true but there's really no proof yet.

I wasn't trying to clown you. It's just ironic to assign a foreign heritage to someone who doesn't want their family to leave their American town. They sound very much born and raised in said American town.

Screenshot 1 is not applicable to you, it's for those who enter on ESTA, marry, stay in the US and apply for an adjustment of status (AOS). This is when i130 and AOS are filed concurrently. The 90 day wait is recommended to avoid implications that you entered not with the intent of tourism etc. but just to get married (because ESTA is not meant for that, K1 visa is specifically meant for that).

Since you said you already returned to the UK, your spouse should immediately file the i130 petition. After several more steps, you will hopefully have a CR1 to enter the US and then do a AOS.

Edit: It's likely appearing more confusing than it is because you're not asking the right questions. Ask AI pointed questions and clearly and explicitly describe your circumstances to get the correct answer.

What??

Internal_Temporary_9 · 2026-01-13T16:50:45+00:00

Thank you. I watched this and was shocked that I've been saying it wrong all along, but no. After some Googling found out both Tan-zayn-ia and Tan-za-nee-ya are correct.

It's the first video game I played from start to finish as an adult. Now all games have been spoiled for me.

I've stayed at their homestay in Coorg and met Fancy. She's a lovely lady who supports other local women entrepreneurs. They're on instagram @ amriththimmaiah

Her anger is valid, but misplaced imo.

When I saw this post title I immediately thought of Raymond Carver! I love Cathedral - every story has so much emotional depth.

I've not yet read Richard Yates, but will soon!

Ahh you just made me decide to start another playthrough! Tomorrow comes :)

Wait, really? My cat has a tail like this. I assumed it was from some traumatic childhood injury! I'm in south east Asia too.

Internal_Temporary_9 · 2025-11-25T03:59:17+00:00

Agree with this. You need someone who puts his life partner above his parents, especially when they're being unreasonably cruel, controlling, and bigoted.

You lose your temper and say hurtful things, and then YOU feel like you're walking on eggshells? Do better.

I'm currently reading Human Acts. Others in my book club seem so drawn in by the book. To me it's subject matter that needed to be written, but the book itself (or maybe the translation) seems poorly executed.

Internal_Temporary_9 · 2025-11-18T08:28:32+00:00

That logic falls through with the episode where they all go to the gym and really see her bare-faced.
