MY GREEK FRIEND (cretan technically but thinks of himself as athenian) has basically stopped paying attention to politics, a default would hurt just as much as a new round of debt servitude so theres nothing to do but go to parties and chill on the beach, i might go visit him maybe he has some cute friends

its cool how the new democracy victory was followed by a bunch of vague noises from merkel etc about loosening some of the restrictions on greece, beg like a good dog and you'll get a few crumbs from the table

any concessions from the troika will be cosmetic and wont change greece's current trajectory (full fucking speed into a cliff face)
