I am tired of this. This thing that perpetuates itself with anger and bluster and blood. I do not want to be your friend. What I want is for all of this to end. (…) I am tempted to put the sword to you and your man both, and bury this story for good, but what am I if I spend my days pleading for a return to civility and then do dark things under the cover of night?

Good job everybody. The solution to this ofc is (re)watching "Orphan Black" with "Severance" in mind. If you could split Hellyna in two you'd get Sarah/Rachel.
i don’t watch severance but it sounds like the helly r and helena chicks just need to scissor some shit out

The railway station was built in 1955, connecting to Moscow. Currently in disrepair state. At the time of my visit, there was a local wedding celebration/photoshoot held at the station. The kids were happy/curious bout me!

Young Woman in Dressing Room
Y. G. Srimati, Indian, early 1940s
Srimati’s engagement with themes that explored daily rural life in India was shared by a number of other painters of her day, most notably N. S. Bendre, Amrita Sher-Gil, and Yagnesh Shukla. Together they sought to identify subjects that belonged to India—and thus distance themselves from dependency on British art-school models—in the pursuit of an Indian modernism. This work, an early study by Srimati of youthful beauty in the simple interior of a village home, skillfully evokes a rural idyll.

Loving Couple (Mithuna)
India (Orissa), 13th century
A Hindu temple was often envisioned as the world's central axis, in the form of a mountain inhabited by a god. The temple itself was therefore worshipped. This was done by circumambulation (walking around the exterior, in this case in a counterclockwise direction) and by viewing its small inner sanctum. The outside of the temple was usually covered with myriad reliefs: some portrayed aspects of the god within or related deities; others represented the mountain's mythological inhabitants. From early times, iconic representations of deities and holy figures were augmented by auspicious images, such as beautiful women, musicians, and loving couples (mithunas). Once part of the subsidiary decoration of a temple facade, the figures of this bejeweled couple embrace while peering rapturously into each other's eyes. Their full bodies and broad, detailed features are characteristic of architectural sculptures produced in thirteenth-century Orissa, a region in northeast India that was noted for its temples, particularly those built from the tenth through the thirteenth century, often distinguished by figures in astonishingly acrobatic and erotic poses. Couples such as this pair are understood to have multiple meanings, ranging from an obvious celebration of life's pleasures to the more metaphorical symbolism of a human soul's longing for union with the divine.
