anecdotally, i think albanians are weirdly psychoactive. and i do think it's twofold: we're both are prone to being extra (asu frat leader) but people also tend to become weirdly fixated on albanians even when we're not (jp morgan lady, presumably)

Mehmed II is reported to said of his great rival upon his death in 1468: "If Scanderbeg had not been born, I would have long since put a turban on the head of the pope and the crescent moon on the top of St Peter's."

Greece was literally built from scratch. And not even by Greeks. 🏛️ Their “independence heroes”? Kolokotronis → Bithguri (Albanian) Miaoulis → Boku (Albanian) Botsaris → Boçari (Albanian) Bubulina → born of Albanian mother Spoke Albanian at home. Albanian surnames. Albanian nicknames. The founders of “ancient Hellas” had Albanian accents. 😂 But wait it gets better. Their first king after “independence”? Otto I. A Bavarian. From Munich. Greece was so Greek that Europe had to import a German to run it. A German king. Albanian generals. And a language that had to be artificially imposed by law because the population wasn’t even speaking Greek properly. That’s right Greek was made mandatory by legislation. Without forced language laws, “Greece” would’ve been speaking Albanian, Slavic and Vlach in the villages and calling it a day. Modern Greek itself? Not even pure. It’s a 19th century academic construction Katharevousa invented by scholars trying to connect a medieval Balkan population to ancient Athens. A manufactured language. For a manufactured nation. Ruled by a foreign king. Founded by Albanians. And THESE are the people telling Turks: “You don’t belong in Anatolia.” Your king was German. 🇩🇪 Your heroes were Albanian. 🦅 Your language was legislated. 📜 Your identity was invented in the 1800s. The most fictional country in the Balkans has the loudest opinion about everyone else’s history. Sit down, Otto. 👑

The way men used to sit on porches in the evening doing nothing was not laziness, it was a liturgy. the earth turned and they watched it turn, and that was what souls needed. that quiet hour nobody can give back

“Fall of Babylon” (1819), a painting by John Martin, an English Romantic painter.

"Shqiptaret u asht dashtun të luftojn pa pushim për me ruajtun karakterin kombtar kunder mundimeve të bamuna prej qeverisë turke për mos me i shkombtarizue . . " Pjeter Bogdani (1627 - 1689)

"Among the Dardanians of Europe who live beyond the boundaries of the Epidamnians, close to the fortress which is called Bederiana, there was a hamlet named Taurisium, whence sprang the Emperor Justinian, the founder of the civilised world." — Procopius of Caesarea (6th century, contemporary of Justinian)

The distribution of the Illyrian helmet subtypes across the Balkans in the 6th-4th centuries B.C. Although originally with clear origins from Greece, the Illyrian helmet began being replicated across the Adriatic, with the most enriched gravesites with them being in Montenegro.

The age of smart is over. what's coming belongs to people who can still cry, people whose hands shake before they do something honest, people who walk out of rooms midsentence because their body told them to, people who kneel down to God. people who pray without words, people who touch trees, people who know when to go home. the smart ones will call this regression, they'll write essays about it, how dangerous it is, how primitive it is, and meanwhile their marriages are dry, their kids are strangers, their bodies are betraying them with insomnia. they feel the door closing and they look for the key inside the same room that locked them in. seeing was never their gift, and now the bill is due
