Point of Balance, Thessaloniki Objects of Common Interest 2023 Stefanos Tsakiris

If you take out the vile slander A gets every single fact wrong. Their house isn't anywhere near Thessoloniki - later interviews make that clear. They did sell the flat in Kentish Town which belonged to Wanda, they still have the one in Kensington - again you can learn this from interviews. They don't live on Kate Moss' estate. Moss owns a large house in the next door village, Tim and Wanda have a reasonably sized cottage in the village.

Now, if she can't get simple facts right why would anyone trust her poorly researched a-historical nonsense - she should read some actual history about Greece for starters - its all pretty accessible even for someone with such poor cognitive skills.

I'll spare you Aeltri's latest slander about Wanda, but it's clear that shegetting desperate. It's also a pity that Anna isn't active much anymore, I would have love to see her reaction to Aeltri's BS about her hometown.

Then there's our resident quack therapist Murphysmom

Friendly reminder that her daughter cut off all contact with her more than 10 years ago. Geez, I wonder why. I have no idea what she's talking about when it comes to that picture. Or by posting pictures. Wanda isn't on social media. We don't hear from her ffs. Murphysmom also fails to mention that Wanda and Tim tried to steer Ben away from acting. That doesn't sound like a stage mom to me.

It takes a special kind of asshole to falsely accuse an elderly woman of abusing her own child. I'd say that Aeltri is projecting here, but even if I thoroughly dislike her, I still wish that on her. Imagine convincing yourself that a stranger was a victim of severe abuse at the hand of his mother rather than accept that he is a happily married man.

Despite a touch of bad weather, @clarkeuddgren and I had a fabulous time exploring Thessoloniki today. Greece’s second largest city, the Birmingham of Greece. #thessoloniki #centralmacedonia #macedonia #greece https://www.instagram.com/p/CVBekJQoEb8/?utm_medium=tumblr

Die regionalen Unterschiede in der gesprochenen Sprache sind ziemlich groß.

I took a night-train from Belgrade in Serbia to Thessoloniki in Greece, via the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, where I was woken at the border in the early hours of the morning by a “customs official” in plain clothes, recognisable only by his serious-looking torch, who informed me that my Bosnian marks, about €20 worth, weren’t allowed across the border and therefore had to be confiscated. Before I knew what was happening, he stole away into the night, never to be seen again.

We often talk of Western imperialism, and rightly so. But there were, and are, other forms of imperialism. The Ottomans captured Constantinople in 1453, after a fifty-three day siege. Five years later, they had secured the ancient city of Athens.

The Parthenon, once a pagan temple to Athena, and latterly a Christian church, was now a mosque.

I often find myself in something of a dilemma. As one Chinese traveler put it to me: all of the most beautiful cultural treasures are religious. It’s true.

From Westminster Cathedral to St. Peter’s Basilica to the Dome of the Rock, the most spectacular expressions of human culture are religious. Boundless time, energy, money, and talent have been expended erecting these glorious buildings. On the one hand, visiting these places and watching the faithful turn their attention to the sacred in their own peculiar ways, it’s marvelous. These differences bring such colour and diversity to the world. And on the other hand, it’s incredibly frustrating. Frustrating because, in my mind, , they also the source of endless conflict.

If you’re searching for the most cynical use of religion, look no further than the Greek Orthodox celebration of the Miracle of the Light.
