in hindu mythology the only thing that stopped a rampaging kali was shiva, her husband, lying down on the ground unarmed and unresisting, and her stepping on him. out of love, she stopped before she could hurt him
I really liked your Loki/Sylki/Shiva/Kali parallel. I was wondering if you can think of any other Hinduism parallels to MCU or other pop culture, I’m just curious to pick your mind. (I know Hindu scripture has some painful connotations for you, so feel free to ignore this ask.)

So in Brazil we were just hit by a huge cold front and in some parts of the country, people are seeing snow for the first time

i’m doing research on the bengal famine for a project and the author of this book is repeatedly expressing his shock and disbelief at how not only the english but the nationalists claiming to fight for the interest of the indian people totally ignored the widespread institutional murder and suffering of the indian people and this book was written ten years ago and. mr chatterjee you may have done years of research but i understand your work better than you ever could.
