one of the video titles was lithuanian

2019-04-25 13:15:21 UTC  

ah

2019-04-25 13:15:26 UTC  

lithuanian sounds slavic i think

2019-04-25 13:15:47 UTC  

balto-slavic family

2019-04-25 13:16:09 UTC  

does the word slave share an etymology with slav?

2019-04-25 13:16:29 UTC  

kek

2019-04-25 13:16:47 UTC  

"From Middle English sclave, borrowed from Medieval Latin Sclavus, from Byzantine Greek Σκλάβος (Sklábos); see that entry for more. "

2019-04-25 13:17:05 UTC  

`Slav (n.)
late 14c., Sclave, from Medieval Latin Sclavus (c. 800), from Byzantine Greek Sklabos (c. 580), from Old Church Slavonic Sloveninu "a Slav," probably related to slovo "word, speech," which suggests the name originally identified a member of a speech community`

2019-04-25 13:17:09 UTC  

yup

2019-04-25 13:17:10 UTC  

Medieval Latin, from Late Latin Sclavus (“Slav”), from Byzantine Greek Σκλάβος (Sklábos), because Slavs were often forced into slavery in the Middle Ages.

2019-04-25 13:17:44 UTC  

mfw it literally just means people who speak like slavs

2019-04-25 13:17:45 UTC  

sclavus means slave in latin

2019-04-25 13:18:10 UTC  

so seems the words are related

2019-04-25 13:18:15 UTC  

same etymology

2019-04-25 13:19:06 UTC  

_combs some fricking fleas out of his cat's fur_

2019-04-25 13:19:14 UTC  

little bastards

2019-04-25 13:19:59 UTC  

his once-per-month treatment only seems to last about 2 weeks

2019-04-25 13:20:30 UTC  

do you live somewhere warm enough to shave em?

2019-04-25 13:21:00 UTC  

UK

2019-04-25 13:21:06 UTC  

in theory... but i doubt he'd like it

2019-04-25 13:21:09 UTC  

guess that's a no

2019-04-25 13:21:18 UTC  

UK is pretty cold considering cats were originally desert animals

2019-04-25 13:21:30 UTC  

well we'ev had some sun lately

2019-04-25 13:22:01 UTC  

i think the problem is they are in the house

2019-04-25 13:22:07 UTC  

so i put flea treatment on him, they all die or hop off

2019-04-25 13:22:14 UTC  

then after about 2 weeks it wears off and they hop back on

2019-04-25 13:22:25 UTC  

i'll have to ask the vet if i can use a stronger treatment, or use them once every 2 weeks

2019-04-25 13:24:07 UTC  

@Tero A lot of names for people groups are just a descriptor of their langiage

2019-04-25 13:26:11 UTC  

mm

2019-04-25 13:27:11 UTC  

not surprising since languages often demarcate political boundaries

2019-04-25 13:46:10 UTC  

@Fitzydog morning lad

2019-04-25 14:00:41 UTC  

So that greta says out giverment has done nothing when it comes to climate change but uk is the leading the example in the G20 for other countries to follow?

2019-04-25 14:02:07 UTC  

So do i trust a 16 year old school shy girl or do I trust the minister of state for clean energy and growth ?

2019-04-25 14:02:33 UTC  

neither

2019-04-25 14:02:49 UTC  

but definitely not the former

2019-04-25 14:03:03 UTC  

16 is too old i want to hear from a woke 8 year old

2019-04-25 14:03:11 UTC  

that would be even more credible

2019-04-25 14:03:57 UTC  

"My 6 year old son said to me the other day how come it is snowing if global warming is real? And i couldn't answer him"

2019-04-25 14:05:20 UTC  

newborns should be able to vote, their parents can just do it for them!

2019-04-25 14:05:20 UTC  

well you see they changed it to climate change bc the US actually gets some serious cold weather and that made the claim of global warming kinda a hard sell @OpenCube
