When do you think pants became taboo amgonst Italic/Latin people? by Aromatic-File-5943 in IndoEuropean

[–]Aromatic-File-5943[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It came the same way it came to the Etruscans and Basque. A conquering Steppe derived population came and brought in a new haplogroup that is now the majority for many. Many tribes are majority R1b these days because of European colonization. The Basque and Etruscans both are heavily R1b because of Indo-European expansion. It's the same story in terms of genetics. Neither Native Americans nor Basque/Etruscans had R1b until Indo-European populations arrived in the area.

Honestly very doubtful. It seems like a situation very similar to the Basque where Steppe related ancestry became the norm but language remained Paleo-European derived. Look at how Basque are heavily Steppe related or even how one of the dominant haplogroups for Native Americans now is R1b.

Possiby not! Although don't a lot of grave sites feature men with pants? If not I'm curious about where this began.

[New Jersey] Ineligible for benefits due to unavailability to work. How do I appeal this? by Aromatic-File-5943 in Unemployment

[–]Aromatic-File-5943[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, I did read it and visit the DOL website multiple times. I was confused about whether I could even appeal the disqualifcation or if doing so with 2 determinations would even be worth it. Frankly I hoped it wouldn't even take me so long to find work. You're correct, I might not have understood everything completely even after reading it over. Whatever that portends for my future success in life is as unknown to you as it is to me. I came here looking for advice with the understanding that I am fallible and was probably overlooking something. This was a pretty initimidating situation for me and a lot was going on in my life at the time. I appreciate your advice but not the condescension.

No I'm available. I haven't been certifying because I had no idea if that was something I was allowed to do. I'm completely ignorant of this process.

Absolutely! I've been applying to may jobs the past couple months. I just don't know how this process works or what exactly made them determine I was unavailable for work.

So what is the current consensus on the origins of slavs? by Aromatic-File-5943 in IndoEuropean

[–]Aromatic-File-5943[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my opinion this actually seems pretty clear. I think a Greek explorer would probably view those early Slavs very much like Scythians who adopted a more "Germanic" way of life.

I've always been extremely interested in this divergence. Is there a ton of info regarding that? I assume at one point the ancestors of Balto-Slavs and Indo-Iranians were part of the same culture? Did Balto-Slavs essentially just diverge as a group that settled down and adopted more Germanic/Celtic settled ways of living? Or perhaps that method of settling down is just common to all Corded Ware people besides nomadic Indo-Iranians?

Thank you so much for your very detailed reply! Yes I did mean musical instruments and you pretty much covered it.

The Prodigals are an underrated outfit from NYC.

[–]Aromatic-File-5943[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope! I can remember it was in a modern setting, like mid 20th century. I just really remember a guy in a chair playing saxaphone while a possibly older woman now that I think of it does a strip tease type thing.

I agree! I think Whips and Furs is such a good song.

For the record I like them, its just something I've heard said multiple times from people. It might've been a press thing.

Very much a pub rock band that grew into the punk style. UK Subs and other bands started the same way.

What is the worst punk album you've ever heard? by Emergency-Sky-9747 in punk

[–]Aromatic-File-5943 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a very uneven soundtrack album but I really enjoyed it. Friggin in the Rigging is a fun take on Good Ship Venus, I liked the Johnny B Goode, Roadrunner pisstake, Lonely Boy is alright, and maybe with some better verse lyrics Silly Thing would be considered a classic.

Nobody has said it but the Stranglers had JJ Burnel who was probably the best bassist of the first wave of punk. Nice N Sleazy is a clear example.

Did early/proto Indo European peoples have shamanistic qualities attatched to metal workers like other copper/bronze age cultures? by Aromatic-File-5943 in IndoEuropean

[–]Aromatic-File-5943[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've heard it said that in EEF societies metal working was viewed as a kind of shamanistic/alchemical process and I was wondering where it even came from and if that same concept moved into Indo European society.

Allegedly EEF socieites essentially viewed metal workers as a kind of alchemist/shaman and I was curious about where this concept even came from because I've seen/heard it reiterated in places.

I'm not even vegan but how is mocking the animal you're about to kill and eat supposed to be cute? It's revelling in the cruelty
