I sometimes catch my Motorola doing that at night, sometimes it even updates.

Yo momma’s lips are so loose, she leaks government secrets.

Yes, because they were Bulgarian.

Obligatory Šaškė

In most of Europe this isn’t leftist policy, it’s common sense centrist policy.

The old Deus Ex and Endless Space are the ones I listen to the most.

I hope that Mazda isn’t a diesel one.

The show I remember being praised for being the opposite was Netflix’s Daredevil. The fighting sequences were well done and long lasting because people kept getting up instead of just lying there after taking a couple of kicks.

His wife already looks like a Barbie doll.

She’s a veteran politician with her own cult of personality, she will be fine. She’s not planning to be the prime minister though.

Edit: this comment aged very poorly.

This election had some weird surprises, like the young and progressive Laisvės Partija getting zero votes, but it could have gone so much worse.

You’re welcome.

If you want to read more about the history of Lithuania and surrounding countries and their nation formation, a great start would be Timothy Snyder’s book “The Reconstruction of Nations”, he’s the most popular historian of the region who is not from the region.

I mean, yes and no.

You are assuming that Lithuanian language became formalised when Lithuania was united under one government. Instead, most of language formalisation happened between 1880s and 1920s, when Lithuanian speaking population was actually divided between Prussian and Tzarist Russian empires. While most of the people lived in Tzarist Russia, writing in Lithuanian in Latin script was forbidden there.

Instead, books in Latin script were printed in Prussia and distributed in Russia illegally. A handful of people like J. Basanavičius and V. Kudirka ended up in charge of printing most of those books and it made it easy to set language standards. Achieving such a monopoly with a bigger language would be much more difficult.

That is also why formal Lithuanian is based on one ethnic dialect that was spoken in Prussia.

Už Laisvės Partiją :/

That happened hundreds of years after Hus.

If there’s a 1 minute sex scene in a 90 minute movie, you’re guaranteed to have your parents walk in during that one sex scene.

Don’t kill the rich. Exile them to an island and watch them eat each other instead of eating the world.

Fun fact: The Czech adopted š, č and ž to look less German. The Lithuanians adopted it to look less Polish.

Lithuanian: Palaikyk mano alų.

Just come up with new letters, Lithuanian has 9 (ą, ę, ė, į, ų, ū, č, š, ž) extra letters. If a small language can do it, so can English.
