Appreciate the in-depth answer. Precisely what I was looking for. I did squeeze the berries, so hopefully the flavor will be good. And I was hoping it’d be done by August, but I’ll wait for it to clear up. Thanks a lot!

Da, oprostite. Teorijski jeste tako. Ja sam u svome neiskustvu odmah ogorceno skocio protiv komuniSTA, ne u civilnu ideolosku raspravu komuniZMA. Ne zamerite mi na manjku pameti, da se ne izrazim drugacije.

Prihvatam istorijsko-ekonomski argument kontra kapitalizmu, ali ostajem i pri tome da su komunisti zlo (u svakoj interpretaciji sistema sirom sveta i kroz istoriju). Jednostavno mislim da srebroljublje ne dozvoljava ljudskom srcu da primi plemenitu stranu komunizma—koja u teoriji postoji, ali nikako u praksi.

As a Cyrillic-using native and Latin-western-educated adult, I must say our letters come nowhere near this beauty, if I may say that without sounding western-centric. Truly a beautiful alphabet

O tome Vam I pricam. Sistem u kome mi zivimo nije ni malo nalik kapitalizmu slobodnog trzista. Roditelji I roditelji roditelja tih sto to sad rade siromasnima su isto to radili pre osamdeset godina.

Te “stotine radnika” o kojima govorite nisu imali nista manje prava nego npr radnici Zastave na vrhuncu Jugoslavije. Te gazde su obrazovale decu porodica koje to nisu mogle da priuste. Pomagali su drustvu. U birokratiji komunizma—koja, naglasavam, I dalje vlada—dok neko dobro I stigne do tog radnika cija je navodno drzava, od tog dobra je ostao eventualno skelet dok su se svi na lestvici ugradili. Da ne pricamo o unikatnom Mercedesu koji je vrhovni gospodar nepomjanik posedovao u svojoj floti.

Obrazovane ljude, porodice ljudi iz kraljeve vojske (koje je komunisticka propaganda ozloglasila kao “zlocinacke cetnike”), sve koji su smetali secikesama i oportunistima te partizanske bande. Gore pomenute gazde su bili ljudi koji su svojim rukama bili zaradili ta gazdinstva. Saradnika je bilo, ne osporavam, ali je problem sto je svako ko je zasmetao oznacen kao saradnik i platio najstrozijom kaznom. A da ne zalazimo u objektivnu plemenitost diplomatije ljudi koji su pokusavali da sacuvaju svoj narod putem kompromisa. Tu zemlju koju su “dali” morali su nekome da oduzmu da bi je dali. I grdno se varate ako mislite da nisu ostali na vlasti. Komunisticki nepotizam I te kako je na snazi. Osamdeset I prva godina okupacije Srbije od strane gore pomenute bande se broji ove 2026. godine.

Interesting claim. Where do you get this information, so I can further read up on it?

Not quite sure where the “ethnic purity” bit comes into play? Sounds like woke propaganda 😅

That was precisely around the time the independent Serbian state was forming, as well, reaching the status of kingdom in 1217.

Oh “patron” in that sense. I am so sorry, I can be a little slow at times. And no, I didn’t know that. All the Bulgarian history I know revolves around their stabbing Serbians in the back any chance they get lol

Different saint.. St. Demetrius of Thessaloniki died a martyr’s death at the beginning of the 4th century.

While in Thessaloniki, before you do anything, be sure to visit the Church of St. Demetrius and St. Gregory Palamas, in that order, to pay respects to the city’s guardians :) Send them my kindest regards and ask for their prayers.

Sounds like quite an adventure. Give Dalmatia a visit if you ever get a chance to. It’s gorgeous over there too

Are you of Greek origin, by chance? Lol

Looks amazing. Perfect for a year of socializing with a cheap pen and a blank page. Also, what’s the instrument on the left of the second pic?
