THE MAN WHO COULD NOT REMAIN SILENT

February 27, 1993, Strpci, Bosnia and Herzegovina. A passenger train from Belgrade to Bar is stopped by paramilitary forces in an ethnic cleansing operation.

في 27 فبراير 1993 ، ستربتشي ، البوسنة والهرسك. أوقفت القوات شبه العسكرية قطار ركاب من بلغراد إلى بار في عملية تط��ير عرقي. وبينما ينقلون المدنيين الأبرياء، يجرؤ رجل واحد فقط من بين 500 راكب على الوقوف في وجههم. هذه هي القصة الحقيقية لرجل لم يستطع التزام الصمت.

I cannot get over this animal. Maybe there is a loving god after all.

It clearly is an axolotl when you look closer, right, got the outside gills and all. But the rest? Why are its legs like that. Why is its face flat. What sick fuck dropped an anvil on this thing <\3

Its called človeška ribica in slovenian, where theyre native to. (..and other balkan countries around there) That means "human fish." Its called macerát jeskynní in czech. Macerát is what you call it when you leave something in enclosed body of water for long period of time. I have a bunch of bird skulls floating in a jar for the bacteria to eat away the soft tissue and thats a macerát.

Apparently it lives for up to 100 years and doesnt have to eat for more than a decade. Im gonna piss myself. I love being alive. What the fuck

It has occurred to me that alongside people losing their memories, people are also being turned into cats.

If you have any fun fact about Croatia, please tell us and I'll reblog it!

Edit: Yugoslavia is misspelled.

Disclaimer: Despite being born in what is now Croatia (Austro-Hungarian Empire at the time), Nikola Tesla was Serbian.

Croatian Miku 🇭🇷

Following the Brazilian Miku trend, I have decided to create the Croatian Miku despite not being Croatian, but I am doing it anyway, since I would like to get to know the country and I have been researching the different folkloric costumes of the country.

Also I haven’t started to humanized Asia and North America yet and so does Oceania and Africa…

What's wrong, 'Tia?

I told you to stop calling me that.

You aren't answering my question, 'Tia.

You know what's wrong.

Ah... This is about that day, isn't it? You know what you did, and you know that you wanted to do it.

You made me do it.

So? What's done is done. You can't undo your own actions, 'Tia.

* Important note that the crests are sometimes like... optional. The Serbian flag, for instance, comes in a variation both with and without the crest, so that isn't actually something you can rely on consistently:
