Obviously, I hope that everyone in Ukraine stays safe and Ukrainians deserve all of our support right now but I also wanted to say that my heart goes out to all people in Eastern Europe and Central Asia who have been living with the fear of Russian intervention for years and now see their worst fears come true. I see so many posts about how "we shouldn't worry as Westerners because the war will not affect us directly" and while this is absolutely true, I wanted to take a second to acknowledge those who do have to live with the fear that it might affect them directly. I don't have anything more to offer than words and it's not worth much but if you are from Poland, Estonia, Kazakhstan or any other country close to Russia or Ukraine and you are afraid because you don't know what the current events means for the future of your country, I am with you in thought and sending you a warm hug with this post.

I’d divorce him too lmao

will never get over the fact that we can love people despite there being countries between us. we can miss people we’ve never seen in person. we can connect and bond over hundreds of things without ever needing to be in each others physical presence. we can have half the globe between us and love never falters.

I hate how I can become so angry with my family that I keep thinking about canceling them entirely out of my life while my own broke-ass cannot afford living in a cave out in the dessert and forces me to stay with them in the same house.

IMPORTANT READ

What people inside and outside of Greece may not know / choose to ignore:

As Lefteris Petrounias (Greek Gold Olympian, Rio 2016, Men's Rings) had mentioned in front of the Minister of Sports, there has never been any support towards the athletes participating in National and International Events (such as the Olympics). Athletes mostly rely on their sponsors and/or working regular jobs to make ends meet.

Thodoris Iakovidis, Greek weightlifter (pictures below), burst into tears, as he could not bear the psychological pressure of HAVING to practice and win, while also having to work an over-40-hours-per-week job, and decided to quit weightlifting altogether.

He couldn't bear the pressure of what he had to sacrifice to work and practice, while seeing athletes of other teams getting supported so much by their countries.

Iakovidis quit at the 191 kilos attempt.

He admits that the Greek Olympic Committee tries to help as much as they can, but the financial help (€250 per month) isn't enough.

The Greek government hasn't helped its athletes financially or emotionally.

Pyrros Dimas (Greek ex-weightlifter, 3-time Gold Olympian, Barcelona 1992, Atlanta 1996, Sydney 2000, Bronze in Athens 2004) talked about how the athletes were suddenly cut off financial support years ago as a possible 'act of revenge'. He also noted that no athlete or person can live with only €250 and be expected to compete and win medals.

In reality, it's also an issue of the financial crisis that never let Greece breathe. All the sports facilities that were available to the athletes had to close down. Athletes have to find open spaces or rely on people providing them with gyms in order to be able to exercise and practice somewhere.

Before the 2016 Olympics, Anna Korakaki (Greek Gold Olympian, Rio 2016, 25 m shooting, Bronze Medal in 10 m shooting) had to practice in open fields, because she wasn't provided with a safe place to practice. Only now was she able to practice in a shooting range because of a generous donation.

Two Greek athletes participating in Tokyo 2020 for hammer throw (Michalis Anastasakis, Christos Frantzeskakis) had to practice literally in the middle of nowhere in their birthplace (Island of Crete), pulling ropes and nets around to make a functional practice space.

And that's just a few stories of what Greek athletes (with one or two known exceptions) have to go through to even make it to the Olympics. Many athletes did not manage to go through to the Olympics because they hadn't been able to practice as much as other athletes did.

Meanwhile, the minister of sports was given €20,000 budget just to take pictures and promote the 'journey' to Tokyo.

I simply cannot feel sorry for multi-millionaire Scarlett Johansson only earning $20 million instead of $30 million or what the fuck ever because Disney recognised that large parts of the world still can't safely go to the cinema on account of the deadly pandemic and released Black Widow on Disney+ at the same time as in theatres. But then I also support anyone suing Disney for any reason, so you see my dilemma

You are the best😭

Simone Biles is a wonder, and I trust & support her to make the best decisions regarding her health. If that means stepping down from competition, then all the more power to her.

She is not a show horse, she is a person who deserves happiness, recovery, and privacy during this time. I am proud of her for putting herself first.
