#Athens
This summer I’m visiting a bunch of places around Europe and would love some suggestions for locations with #paranormal #folklore #mythological #urbanlegend significance. I’ll be visiting #istanbul in #turkey, #corfu #athens #delphi (hoping to meet the Oracle) in #greece, #florence #pisa #bologna in #italy, #valencia #Oviedo in n. #spain and finally #trasosmontes #braga #porto #coimbra #lisbon #sintra in #portugal. Would love to meet #witch #weirdos and #punk folks along the route! Help?
One of the most connected people in the last 5 years in #Athens, watched and evaluated tape on every player on the #UGA roster and most of the P5 rosters around the country. Was voted #NFL Liason of the year for 2022, talking to staffs and scouts.. This is going to be GREAT.. https://twitter.com/JakeMRowe/stat…

But #Medea doesn't stop there. She kills her own children, despite the pain it will put her through, to hurt Iason. Revelling in his pain from a flying chariot provided to her by her grandfather #Helios, Medea takes her childrens' bodies with her to bury them in #Hera's sanctuary far away in Akraia, refusing to let Iason hold them. She prophesises a bitter end for him and proceeds to make her escape to #Athens in the divine chariot.

"Go on, play the bridegroom!" #Medea tells Iason, "The gods will see to it: one day you'll regret the match you have made."
After arranging for her exile in #Athens, Medea poisons a golden robe, an heirloom from her grandfather #Helios, and sends her children to present it to Glauke as a gift, allegedly in hopes to lift their exile but in truth to enact vicious revenge on Iason's new bride: when Glauke puts on the radiant robe, the poison kills her and her father Kreon who tries to save her.

Yet another person dies in custody while held by @hellenicpolice in the notorious Omonia police station, #Athens. 55 year-old German tourist jumped to his death last night according to official police report.


Looking at the latest satellite imagery of #Athens on #GoogleEarth / #GoogleMaps, I can't help but wonder. Obviously, the Greek military is concerned that the evil Turks will invade the Athens Army Hospital and steal the bed pans.
Which, to be honest, can't be prevented by pixelating the hospital's entire neighbourhood on Google's aerial images, because Turkey has its own hi-res photos:

I didn't toot anything #Jazz-related for a while, so here's the fabulous Daniel García Trio (Spain).
They play live tonight at the #AthensJazz festival in the #Technopolis venue (#Kerameikos, central #Athens). I heard their soundcheck earlier and really wish I could be there for the concert.

Maybe one of the biggest weekends for officials, I have covered with the amount of 'stars' in town in #Athens https://twitter.com/ReuseRecruitin…

What could be more Athens public park works than the new flood defences on the steepest slope of Lycabettus? Further along, I found the rest of the work crew. The sacking was to keep the soil from eroding, they said. It had been seeded. With what, they didn’t know. Do they expect it to sprout in summer? They shrug. #Athens #UrbanPhotography #Greece

They are an invasive species which presumably was introduced by accident when some birds escaped quarantine at the old Athens Airport in the 1980s or 1990s.

#Athens, #Greece: Intervention at the Italian Education Institute of Athens in Solidarity with #AlfredoCospito
https://athens.indymedia.org/post/1624420/
Excerpts from the article: "On Friday, March 17th, at the launch of the presentation of the collective volume - tribute to the work of Altiero Spinelli ("a visionary and one of the great 'fathers' of European unification") at the Italian Educational Institute in Patision - Athens (across the NTUA gate), a political intervention of solidarity with the comrade and hunger striker, since 20/10/22, Alfredo Cospito was held."
******
"The struggle of the anarchist Alfredo Cospito and those of all free people around the world demonstrate the hypocrisy of the world's masters and claim another world for humanity. A world where respect and dignity, solidarity and freedom are not words on dusty parchments but a way of life."
*Note: Link contains Greek, Italian and English text explaining the action
Riot diary: the greek #train collision, part one
"As a frequent rioter in #Athens I try to resist writing these sorts of english-language “reportbacks” — what’s the point? Seems like an existential ego trip, a dog pissing on a fire hydrant: ‘I was HERE! I EXIST!’
In this case, I feel there hasn’t been much english-language anarchist coverage of the popular response to the Feb 28 2023 train collision in #Greece. "
