A Master Class on Freaks in Rural America
by J.C. White – 2025 The great author from Georgia, Flannery O’Connor, once said in response to a question about why Southerners write about freaks so well, “because we in the South are still able to recognize one.” She wasn’t being cruel; she was being honest. The South has always known how to call a … Continue reading A Master Class on Freaks in Rural America
Retro review: People’s General
People's General, the weakest representative of the SSI's 5-Stars series, with atrocious graphics and crippled, illogical game mechanics, that the modding community later tried to salvage.
Myth of the neutrals and other Serbian political fairytales
The student and civic protesters, who represent the third, latest manifestation of Serbian alt-right populist sentiment, following the one that gave rise to Slobodan Milošević in the late 1980s and the second one that returned Aleksandar Vučić to power in 2012, are now getting a dose of reality with the opposition parties taking back the forefront from pro-Russian extremists.

The Hooligans and Other Controversial Figures of Serbia
I spent 2+ weeks exploring my final Balkan country (I’ve now been to all 8–if you don’t count Greece or Slovenia, which most Balkan folks don’t ;)) Serbia had some of the most unique and interesting architecture I’d seen in the region, the largest and most exciting city, and lots of history to learn about … Continue reading The Hooligans and Other Controversial Figures of Serbia
Serb it out, even if you have to eat mud
The Serbian police no-nonsense approach in dealing with the riots after the Vidovdan student protest held on Saturday, the 28th of June is to be commended. What we have here is two alt/far-right popular fronts, one in government and one in opposition, bickering over their narcissism of small differences. This country is in deep trouble.
