How do I turn this thing on?

I find this characterization a bit unfair. I have no love for VMRO-DPMNE, but those funds would have done nothing to further their EU aspirations even if they hadn't been embezzled because Greece still would have vetoed their accession on the basis that they feel their identity is illegitimate.
We once gave North Macedonia several billions in E.U development funds to build infrastructure in an effort to advance their E.U aspirations. They used the money to build replica Greek temples in a flood basin, with a statue of Alexander the Great pointing a sword at Greece.

Not much excitement going on here

Tbf most of the people that try to explain the name issue between Macedonia and Greece don’t understand it themselves.
Explaining the North Macedonia Naming Dispute to Americans and watching their brains melt

Every single member of the Columbia administration should step down.

Through their complicity and their cowardice, they've betrayed their faculty, their staff and most of all their students.

There's no way they can lead that university in any meaningful sense from this point on.

Some oldies I took a few years ago of a Paeonian burial site located at the Brazda Archaeological Park in Macedonia, just north of Skopje

Just rewatched Oliver Stone’s Alexander. Still a banger

Dangerous thing to post, but I LIKED Gladiator 2. I LIKED the speeches akin to what a high school football coach would give. I LIKED the grotesqueness and sharks in the colosseum. I LIKED the melodrama. And most importantly, I LOVED Pedro Pascal, Denzel Washington, and Paul Mescal!!!

Told myself I was going to read Suetonius again after watching Gladiator 2, and I never did it, so that makes me a shitbag

Was told this place is like a giant faculty meeting, but what if we had fun here?
