Could you transform me into a dumb indian bodybuilder himbo? I’d prefer to be made femme but whatever suits your fancy
You make your wish and you are suddenly transported to the land of your true ancestry. Staring back you is the dave of an Adonis and attached is the nod that look as though it was carved from marble. Before you even have time to register your new body your brown one thickens and your jaw begins to sware while a thick dark shadow creeps across your chin. Any thought you have begins to disappear in the fog that is clouding your brain as your himbo nature begins to take effect. Always wanting to please a man and be the bottom toy you need to be to please. It’s your status as gym himbo now. You’ll always wear slutty clothes that show off your body to everyone and no one will be able to resist you. Let’s hope you enjoy the life of a dim witted himbo Indian man.

Some neighbors of the Malarkeys were keeping a watchful eye on “the little troublemaker.” But Michael Noland, the bewhiskered maritime pilot who lived next door, found him harmless enough; he believed Donnie just had a “sense of adventure.” Flask at his side, Noland would sit on his front porch with the boy and regale him with stories of guiding ships in from the Pacific Ocean across the Columbia River sandbar, one of the world’s most dangerous. “Donnie, at times them waves’d be three stories high,” he would say. “See that telephone pole? Them white horses’d snap that like a toothpick.” Eyes wide, Donnie glanced at the pole. “There’s a reason,” said Noland, “they call it the ‘Graveyard of the Pacific.’ ” “Sounds scary,” said Donnie. “Why do you do that, Mr. Noland?” “It’s the adventure, lad. It’s wondering what’s behind the next wave—and the one beyond that, and on and on.”
[...] In contrast to Michael Noland, some people regarded Donnie with a touch of suspicion. The issues? Mischief in general and marbles in particular. Donnie was such a good player that the kids in the neighborhood would routinely lose most of their marbles—and their allowances—to the kid who lived on Kensington Avenue.
[...] He lived a sort of Huckleberry Finn life, particularly in the summer on the river. He loved the land, loved the water, loved the freedom that came with both. The Northwest was rich in Indian lore, and when Louie Jacobson—half Native American—took Donnie under his wing, the boy relished the lessons he learned. Jacobson taught him to shoot a yew-wood bow and arrow, to trap small animals, and to catch crawdads. People joked that Louie was half-Indian—and Donnie full-blooded. He explored the river in an old rowboat, fished for sea-run cutthroats, picked wild blackberries, and camped on the riverbanks. No schedule. No responsibilities. Nobody to answer to—least of all his father, whose insurance business capsized in the Depression and who, if not lost at sea, was beaten and battered trying to stay afloat. His father was “never the same,” Don Malarkey remembered as an adult. “Just went numb.” Books deepened Donnie’s sense of adventure; like Mr. Noland, he began wondering what was beyond the next wave. When the rains came in November, he would curl up with Roy Rockwood’s Bomba the Jungle Boy series. Inspired by Bomba’s living-off-the-land spirit, he adopted a swath of alder saplings at Fifteenth and Madison as his own private jungle. He would climb to a treetop, grab a branch, start swinging it, then use the “whip” to send him to the next tree, where he repeated the process. He could go an entire block without touching the ground. If Bomba inspired Donnie to climb up, his own imagination inspired him to jump down. In the early 1930s, when the U.S. Army was only beginning to experiment with the idea of parachuting men out of airplanes, Donnie climbed to the roof of the Malarkeys’ two-story house. He popped open a beach umbrella and eased himself to the roof’s edge. As if he were the Statue of Liberty holding her torch, he thrust the umbrella skyward. And jumped.

Maheshwari Indian Temple
Tall marble staircases, ornate pillars, and a golden-brass statue all welcome worshippers and travelers to the Maheshwari Mandir, which roughly translates to "Temple of the Great One."
Indian temples come in a variety of styles, but the inner structures are almost always the same. There are two main sections, an inner chamber that houses the deity called the garba griha, and an outer worshipping space called the mandala. Worship typically takes place in the form of a Puja, during which various food items are offered to the deity in a large sacrificial fire.
This map can also be used as a general fantasy temple if you wish to do so.
Download the map for free here.
This map will also be included as part in my 5e Devabhumi setting book, which will be released this year! Devabhumi is an Ancient India-inspired campaign setting, which presents an alternate world that brings the epics and stories of this rich culture to life.

Basic about my muses in no specific order (part 1-?):
ㅤA.sclepius: ㅤ(source: Greek mythology.) Snek doctor; fucked up with the gods and found out (got struck DEAD with lighting from zeus bc he was messing around too much with the whole bringing to life dead people). Grouchy. Hates apollo. Don't come to him for a 'simple' flu, he's here for more interesting diseases.
ㅤA.shwatthama: ㅤ(source: Indian epic Mahabharata) warrior who was born with a blessing (gem on his forehead) that would grant him something close to immortality but who by a moment of grief and rage over the unjust death of his father, acts upon it and gets cursed with immortality so he's just wandering around with a wound that will never heal.
ㅤConstantine XI: ㅤ(Source: history, Europe) last Byzantine emperor / or also considered the last Roman emperor, as Byzantine emperors considered themselves as Roman emperors in direct succession from Augustus) the fall of Constantinople (the capital of the roman empire he ruled) marked the end of an era (the medieval period). He is regarded as the emperor who fought alongside his soldiers to the last breath and perished during battle. Historical based + including the chivalrous tales surrounding his figure as the emperor who fought alongside his people as well as the famous story of the 'marble emperor' in which it details how he did not die but was saved by an angel who turned him into a marble statue, waiting for a call to reconquer his old city and rebuild his fallen empire.
ㅤA.rthur P.endragon: ㅤ(source: Welsh folklore + the retelling of Arthur as king of Britain) You probably all have some semblance of the tales of king Arthur so I won't detail much about his history. Carries the weight of hope across universes. This Arthur is the image of the ideals of a knight in shining armor that you often see coming from tales in books. A man who became distant and who carries the shattered pieces of an unattainable honor, calm yet playful. Sacrificed everything for his kingdom to the point where he ignored his own humanity to become more of an instrument than a person. Currently, he is on a fight to save the world.
ㅤJ.ason: ㅤ(Source: Greek mythology, from the Argonautica) The captain of the argo and leader of the Argonauts (Jason's crew consisting of a bunch of different heroes he recruited from all over the place like Heracles, Achilles' dad, Orpheus, Atalanta, Asclepius, Medea, Castor and Pollux etc etc) basically his story is the og a.vengers (but better). Jason is the purest definition of an 'epic's hero' as well as one of the most human characters in greek mythology (alongside Odysseus who is, fun fact, his cousin!) as he possesses great leadership and ambition yet is in the same sentence, a coward with bouts of depressive/hopeless episodes who will run away first like a headless chicken as soon as the potatoes start to boil / HIS life is at risk. The definition of 'wow! this guy is actually pretty cool??' and 3 seconds after "actually, this guy sucks a.ss!"
#;about#about#/I THINK I DID THIS BEFORE BUT-#part 1 bc theres so many of them OOF-#Explaining my muses in the shittiest way possible GOGOGOGOGO#basically my whole blog is mostly: give me the top 10 worst men-#and i go; yes sir right away sir#there are some exceptions yes; but a lot of them are TERRIBLE!#i say im quitting and then these binches come back and grab me by the neck#f.ate is a curse-

Whenever I've contemplated the recent Canadian MAID policies, my mind has inevitably wandered to Robert W. Chambers' justly revered weird tale "The Repairer of Reputations" and the Government Lethal Chambers that are such a key thematic element therein. I am not going to imply that the Canadian health services have fallen under the sway of the Yellow Sign (although...), but I've always noticed in reading and listening to other moderns' response to the story that there's important period context that gets largely missed. This is understandable - most people haven't read nearly as many fin-de-siècle and Edwardian era 'Scientific Romances' as I have, for the good reason that most of them are really quite bad.
But without historical context, it's easy to miss exactly what the alternate future New York City that the story may or may not be set in represents. It's a whole collection of relatively common Progressive era tropes representing peoples' hopes and fears about the immediate future, arranged in an optimistic (even Utopian) key. The obsession with civic beautification, the gleaming fleets of battleships that are almost an extension of the "good architecture [that] was [everywhere] replacing bad," the optimistic hope that race problems could be settled for all times and peaceably without any then-unseemly 'mixing' (Indian scouts! an "independent negro state of Suanee"! checking of immigration!), a militarism that's as much about pomp & love of regimentation as about actual wars, the "colossal Congress of Religions" that "laid [bigotry and intolerance] in their graves" and "began to draw warring sects together", a love of orderly centralization... This is all the sort of stuff that moderate, bien-pensant Progressives and Fabians of Chambers' day would have cheered on. Even the "war with Germany," involving an unlikely occupation of the Virginia coast, is an optimistic take on the Invasion Story subgenre that was becoming common at the time (the scars it left "had been forgotten in the joy over repeated naval victories, and the subsequent ridiculous plight of General Von Gartenlaube's forces in the State of New Jersey.") It's all of a piece, an expression of boundless Columbian Exposition optimism and faith in Reason and Progress to bring forth an Earthly Paradise.
And so are the Lethal Chambers. They are reasonable, and graceful, and beautiful, solutions to the problem of hopelessness. Reasonably, why should a person not have a right "to end an existence which may have become intolerable to him, through physical suffering or mental despair"? Too, "the community will be benefited by the removal of such people from their midst." And the Chamber is beautiful, placed in a verdant park, decorated with Grecian columns and marble statues, designed to make one's exit from this world as rationally elegant as possible. It's all done discreetly, in the best possible taste.
This is why the story is given this whole setup, why it begins with what seems today to be a very disorienting bit of archeofuturistic world-building. In the context of this world of rational hopes rationally filled, not only is Castaigne's descent into madness more shockingly out of place, but it also represents an irruption into that world of something else, something old and strange and powerful. There is a reason that Wilde & Castaigne invoke the trappings of the archaic medievalism that the Progressive world sought to do away with forever, and a reason why Wilde deals (or claims to deal) in blackmail and conspiracy. All the flotsam and jetsam that, it was hoped, could be swept away like the old slums, bob inevitably to the surface.
As something of a reactionary, I'm inclined to take a political reading of this - "don't immanentize the eschaton!" as the slogan goes. But, like all really good fiction, "The Repairer of Reputations" is about something deeper than politics. I leave further interpretation as an exercise to the reader.

Admission to many museums in the UK are free, so once and a while we drop in to get to see local art. Here are some photos of art with themes of colonization, injustice, and issues of our time at Tate Liverpool.
This photo is of a Palestinian woman in what’s left of her home during the Sabra Camp massacre in 1982. It is by Don McCullin, a British photographer who covered the Lebanese Civil War during his visits in 1976 and 1982. Palestinian refugees fled to Lebanon after the establishment of Israel in 1948 in what was once a part of Palestine. The war in Lebanon led to massacres of Muslim neighborhoods including Palestinians in the Sabra refugee camp.
The late Zarina Hashmi was an Indian-American artist born in India, whose family was displaced by the 1947 partition of India after British colonial rule. While her sister Rani moved to Pakistan, Zarina eventually traveled the world, staying in touch with her sister everywhere she went. “Letters from Home” use these letters from Rani as a basis for the art, as they are written in Urdu and printed along with depictions of blue prints and maps of the places Zarina had lived through the years.
Kader Attia was born in France to Algerian parents, and later grew up in Algeria. Believe it or not, this artwork is made out of food. Specifically, couscous, a staple in Algeria as well as the rest of North Africa. Near the exhibit is a photo of Swiss-French architect Le Corbusier, who applied modernist architecture during the French colonial period in Algeria near the mid 1900s. In this artwork Attia seems to shape buildings in the modernist style, depicting the ancient hilltop city of Ghardaia in Algeria. The buildings are molded in couscous, and cracks and crumbling areas in the buildings could be seen as weathering from both the city’s old age and French colonization.
Torkwase Dyson handcrafted these huge, black structures and placed them in a large dark space on the first floor of Tate Liverpool. Dyson’s abstract works “grapple with the ways in which space is perceived, imagined and negotiated particularly by black and brown bodies.” This installation, “Liquid a Place,” definitely displays this, with these huge statues of what seam like heavy slabs of the darkest marble. They definitely convey the weight of colonization for me, and the artist description of them echoing “the curve of a ship’s hull” got me the most. Tate Liverpool sits in what was once one of Europe’s busiest ports serving the Transatlantic Slave Trade.
Lubaina Himid was one of the pioneers of the UK’s Black Art movement in the 1980s. “Carrot Piece” shows a white figure hovering a carrot over a Black woman carrying her own plentiful batch of food and items. The white figure is on a unicycle and wears light make up, conveying ridiculousness or crude entertainment, as if a clown. These are cut-out wooden paintings that are life-sized and was made for, as Himid wrote in her description, “…the moment when you slowly realise that you have learned something quite useful about yourself which proves to be a whole lot better than anything ever offered to you for free.”
Kerry James Marshall is known for his colorful paintings depicting Black people in dark shades. He counters “Western pictorial tradition” and brings forward Black figures in it. This work shows a Black figure wearing a British royal guard uniform, holding a sandwich board advertising a fish and chips restaurant named after a freedman, prominent writer, and British slavery abolitionist Olaudah Equiano. The irony of this art, is that it does not show a place in England. It is a scene in Arizona, where a “London Bridge” was made to attract American tourism.

Premium Iskcon Radha Krishna Marble Statue
The divine beauty and elegance of a Radha Krishna marble moorti have captivated devotees and art lovers for generations. These intricately crafted sculptures, particularly the Iskcon Radha Krishna marble statue, are more than just works of art; they are embodiments of spirituality, devotion, and timeless tradition. The art of creating such statues is deeply rooted in Indian culture, where artisans pour their skill, devotion, and emotions into crafting these exquisite representations of the divine couple, Radha and Krishna.
The Significance of Radha Krishna Marble Moorti
Radha and Krishna are considered the epitome of divine love and harmony. In Hindu culture, their stories symbolize eternal love, devotion, and spiritual enlightenment. A Radha Krishna marble moorti serves as a reminder of these virtues, making it a cherished possession for homes, temples, and spiritual centers. The smooth finish, intricate details, and lifelike expressions on these marble statues make them an ideal centerpiece for any spiritual environment. They are not just decorative pieces but revered as sacred idols that foster a connection between the devotee and the divine.
Iskcon Radha Krishna Marble Statues – A Unique Legacy
The International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON) has played a significant role in spreading the teachings and devotion of Lord Krishna worldwide. An Iskcon Radha Krishna marble statue is crafted with special care to reflect the spiritual essence of the deities as depicted in ISKCON’s teachings. These statues often have unique features, such as Krishna holding a flute and Radha in her iconic pose of devotion and grace.
ISKCON temples and devotees value these statues for their spiritual aura and aesthetic appeal. By placing an Iskcon Radha Krishna marble statue in their homes or temples, devotees invite divine blessings into their lives. The statues not only inspire devotion but also serve as a source of peace and positivity, transforming the ambiance of any space.
Craftsmanship and Materials in Radha Krishna Marble Moorti
Creating a Radha Krishna marble murti is no ordinary task. It requires skilled artisans who have honed their craft over years, often passing down their expertise through generations. The process begins with selecting high-quality marble, often sourced from Rajasthan in India, which is known for its premium-grade white marble. The material's durability and natural sheen make it ideal for crafting intricate statues.
Artisans then carve the marble with precision, paying close attention to every detail—be it Krishna’s flute, Radha’s flowing garments, or the delicate expressions on their faces. The statues are often adorned with colorful hand-painted designs, adding vibrancy and life to the moorti. Gold leaf and semi-precious stones are also used in some cases to enhance the statues' grandeur, making them look even more divine.
Why Choose a Radha Krishna Marble Moorti for Your Home?
Having a Radha Krishna marble moorti at home is more than a decorative choice—it’s a spiritual investment. These statues serve as focal points for meditation, prayer, and spiritual gatherings. The serene expressions of Radha and Krishna emanate a calming energy, encouraging an atmosphere of peace and devotion. Additionally, the statues' timeless beauty makes them an excellent addition to any interior design, blending seamlessly with both traditional and modern aesthetics.
The Iskcon Radha Krishna marble statue, in particular, holds a special place in the hearts of devotees. Its design reflects the teachings and principles of ISKCON, making it a spiritual anchor for those who follow the path of Krishna consciousness. Whether you are a follower of ISKCON or simply a devotee of Lord Krishna, these statues bring a sense of divine grace to your living space.
Maintenance of Radha Krishna Marble Statues
While marble is a durable material, proper care is essential to preserve the beauty and sanctity of a Radha Krishna marble moorti. Regular dusting with a soft cloth and occasional cleaning with mild soapy water can help maintain its pristine appearance. It is also advisable to avoid using harsh chemicals, as they may damage the surface or the hand-painted details. For heavily adorned statues, care should be taken to clean the embellishments without causing any wear and tear.
The Perfect Gift for Spiritual Occasions
A Radha Krishna marble moorti is a thoughtful gift for spiritual occasions such as weddings, housewarming ceremonies, or festive celebrations like Janmashtami. The divine charm of the moorti makes it a meaningful and cherished present, symbolizing blessings, love, and prosperity. For ISKCON followers, an Iskcon Radha Krishna marble statue would be an especially significant gift, reflecting their devotion and spiritual connection to Lord Krishna and Radha.
Where to Buy Premium Iskcon Radha Krishna Marble Statues
When looking for a high-quality Iskcon Radha Krishna marble statue, it’s essential to choose a reputable seller or artisan. Many online and offline stores specialize in handcrafted Radha Krishna statues, offering a wide range of designs, sizes, and price ranges. Ensure that the statue is made from genuine marble and exhibits fine craftsmanship, as this not only enhances its aesthetic appeal but also its longevity.
Conclusion
A Radha Krishna marble murti is more than just a decorative piece—it’s a symbol of love, devotion, and spiritual peace. Whether it’s a simple statue or an intricately designed Iskcon Radha Krishna marble statue, these sculptures hold immense significance in Hindu culture. Their divine presence can transform any space into a sanctuary of peace and positivity, making them an invaluable addition to any home or temple.

Exploring the Architectural Wonders of Bangalore
For cheap and best Travel Bookings - https://travelinternationals.com/
Bangalore, also known as Bengaluru, is a vibrant city that effortlessly blends modernity with history, and this fusion is reflected in its stunning architectural landscape. From colonial-era buildings to contemporary structures, the city is home to a variety of architectural styles that showcase its rich cultural heritage and rapid urbanization. Here, we explore some of the architectural wonders that make Bangalore a must-visit destination for architecture enthusiasts.
One of the most iconic landmarks in Bangalore is the Bangalore Palace, which draws inspiration from England's Windsor Castle. Built in the 19th century, the palace is a splendid example of Tudor-style architecture with its intricate woodwork, sprawling lawns, and royal interiors. Its grandeur and charm make it a perfect representation of the city's regal past.
Another architectural marvel in Bangalore is the Vidhana Soudha, an imposing structure that houses the state's legislature. Completed in 1956, this monumental building showcases a fusion of Dravidian and Neo-Dravidian architectural styles. With its massive granite walls, large dome, and impressive columns, Vidhana Soudha stands as a symbol of Bangalore’s political and cultural significance.
For those interested in religious architecture, the Bull Temple is a must-visit. Built in the 16th century, this temple is dedicated to Nandi, the sacred bull, and is known for its massive monolithic statue of Nandi, which stands at over 15 feet. The Dravidian style of architecture seen here is complemented by the temple’s peaceful surroundings, offering visitors a glimpse into the city’s spiritual heritage.
In contrast, the futuristic and sleek design of the UB City Mall represents the modern face of Bangalore. With its glass facades, upscale boutiques, and luxury offices, this commercial complex is a testament to the city’s thriving economy and rapidly growing infrastructure. The clean lines and innovative design set it apart as one of the city’s architectural achievements.
Lastly, the ISKCON Temple in Rajajinagar is another architectural gem in Bangalore. The temple’s traditional style, combined with modern elements, creates a unique visual experience. The grand dome and marble carvings make it a striking example of how ancient and contemporary architectural styles can co-exist harmoniously.
Bangalore's architectural diversity offers a fascinating journey through time, culture, and progress, making it an essential destination for those interested in exploring the richness of Indian architecture.

Florida's Most Eccentric Burial Ground
The Spanish discovered stacks of Indian skulls on the Island of Key West and called the place Cayo Hueso, which means "isle of bones." It's a fitting name when you consider that human bones seem to be scattered all over the place. The first public cemetery in Key West was established in the sand dunes of Whitehead Point. In 1846, a hurricane destroyed this cemetery, washing bodies from the graves and depositing bones in the sands along the beach.
Small graveyards and lone tombstones have been found all around the island, but the one that has become a major tourist attraction is Key West's Old Cemetery. This unusual graveyard was started in 1847 on nineteen acres of land in the heart of town and contains somewhere between sixty thousand and a hundred thousand graves. The exact number cannot be documented because of so many unmarked graves, lost records, and Key West's bizarre burial customs.
The first thing a visitor to Key West's Old Cemetery will notice is the aboveground whitewashed tombs stacked one atop the other, some three or four tiers high. The same stacking has been done underground, where family members are shelved atop each other. The local name for this space-saving practice is "multiple interments." In one family plot, there are twenty-eight known burials in seven spaces. In other instances, old bones were removed to make way for new remains. In many cases, people buried their deceased loved ones in somebody else's grave. Some families even sold interment rights to their plots, sort of like those time-share deals offered by Florida condominiums. This recycled has resulted in human remains being mixed up with the excess dirt from burials and hauled off to the dump. The problems is compounded by Key West's heat and humidity, which causes rapid deterioration of remains if a grave is disturbed. One concerned sexton, in trying to obtain state oversight of the cemetery sent photographs to the legislature showing green slime running out of one crypt and down over another tomb!
Even with its problems, the old cemetery represents the eccentric character of Key West, and this is what attracts tourists. All ethnic backgrounds can be found among the burials, and there are Catholic and Jewish sections. One of the cemetery's predominant historical features is the bronze statue of a sailor overlooking the graves of twenty-seven sailors killed during the sinking of the U.S.S. Maine in Havana Harbor.
You've heard of Sloppy Joe's Bar, of course. Sloppy Joe Russell died while fishing with Ernest Hemingway and is now at rest in a boxlike tomb. Not far from Sloppy Joe's tomb is the tomb of General Abraham Lincoln Sawyer, who died in 1939 at age seventy-seven. His final request was to be buried in a full-size tomb. He wasn't really a general; he was actually a former carnival midget who stood only forty inches tall.
On Fourth Avenue, in the graveyard, is the statue of Earl Saunders Johnson; the shoes are really his shoes, encased in plaster. In the rows of graves, there is the one of a black Bahamian named Thomas Romer with the inscription GOOD CITIZEN FOR 65 YEARS OF HIS 108 YEARS. One of the most talked about inscriptions in the cemetery is the one that says DEVOTED FAN OF JULIO IGLESIAS. But it's no more weird than the marble tablet for Pearl Roberts, which reads I TOLD YOU I WAS SICK.
