Mariola Sirakova - New General Megathread for the 15th of August 2023
Born 1904 - Kilifarevo, Bulgaria, died May 28th 1925 - Belovo, Bulgaria.
Born in Kilifarevo, Bulgaria on 14th August 1904, the student-actress Mariola Sirakova belonged to a well-off family. She revolted from an early age against her social background and became an anarchist communist when she went to the Girls High School at Tarnovo in 1919.
She regularly took part in secret anarchist meetings.
She began a relationship with another Bulgarian anarchist, Gueorgui Cheitanov. She associated with other important anarchists like Petar Maznev, Georgi Simeonov Popov, and others. In her frre time, she acted in the Orpheus Theatre Company in Kilifarevo. In 1922-23 she studied in Pleven. She often hid wanted anarchists like Vassil Popov and Valko Shankov
In 1923 a military coup led to the butchery of 35,000 workers and peasants. The armed resistance that followed ended with the bomb attack by the Communist Party on Sofia cathedral which was aimed at the country's elite. A massive campaign of repression was then unleashed by the fascists and military against the revolutionary movement.
Mariola was arrested by the police, and brutally beaten. In June 1924 she returned to Kilifarevo. She was arrested again, but soon released. She gave support to the Kilifarevo cheta (armed guerilla unit), bringing them food, medicine and clothes and caring for the wounded.
Special police detachments were set up to hunt Cheitanov down. All the guerrillas united into a single detachment, being forced to disperse towards the end of May. Cheitanov and Mariola Sirakova, were caught in an ambush and arrested. They were taken to Belovo railway station and shot with 12 other prisoners on May 28th June 1925.

Might finally be going on a date with my crush
Been a bit of an emotional roller coaster (and will probably be for just a bit longer lol), but she had let me know she was interested about a month ago. Asked her out about two weeks ago via text, but it was a bit last minute and I didn't get a reply. We kept talking at work, but I hadn't brought it up. Then our schedules started to drift apart a bit and last week just kinda sucked. Then this past weekend we worked together again, but I hadn't quite mustered up the courage to ask her out again. Our schedules matched up today and I went ahead and asked her out again and she said yes. Nothing quite final because the event we'd be going to is a couple weeks away, but there's a good chance our schedules will line up enough for us to go
I'm pulling for you!
hey congrats!
