Apparently, it's doing really well now.

And also they're called "lazy bears" in Ecuador.

In french we call them "paresseux" which means "lazy"

[-] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

We literally called them lazies.

Haha that's cool, I wonder if there are any languages where the sloth isn't named after their slow nature?

[-] jan75@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 month ago

"Faultier" in german as well, "faul" = lazy and "tier" = animal

[-] espentan@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Same in Norwegian, dovendyr.

Doven = lazy, or more accurately, "action less". Dyr = animal.

Can we cut these little guys some slack!? Jesus. Every nation on Earth piling on.

[-] Willdrick@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Cut them some slack?! They've got all the slack already!

Portuguese: bicho preguica

PreguiΓ§a: to feel lazy, "bicho": a little less formal way to say animal

Scientists are now studying the healing properties of 394.

Alright, we'll give you really cool claws, but the trade-off is that you'll move with the speed of darkness.

[-] Kolanaki@pawb.social 0 points 1 month ago

Speed of darkness

Isn't that basically exactly the same as the speed of light? 🀨

[-] espentan@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Hehe, probably. It's just something I like to say, with the implication being that if the speed of light is fast, then the speed of darkness must be slow. It stands to reason, right?

Actually since darkness contains no information darkness can move at any speed

Aww. He looks suspiciously calm. Like as soon as the officer puts him somewhere safe he's going to walk back into the danger.
