Zaharnítsa: I'm seeing more people with "tigan" in their URL. →
tw: slurs
I’m assuming that they’re Google translating words for “Gypsy” because the URL they wanted was taken.
If you are not Rromani or you’re not Rromani from certain parts Continental Europe, then don’t use that word.Don’t use ANY variation of that word.
this is the kind of classy response that is supposed to convince me of what exactly? I’m not gonna respond to trolling.

IT’S WORSE THAN “GYPSY” YOU FUCK WITS.MOST RROMANI WON’T FUCKING TOUCH THAT WORD WITH A 10 FOOT POLE, IT’S THAT OFFENSIVE.
IT LITERALLY MEANS SLAVE.
no, it doesn’t literally mean slave, and I’m Romanian so I should know. the word is related to gitain in French and the similar word in Italian and Spanish, and it literally means Egyptian. as far as I know, that is not an insult, even though it’s not historically accurate for the population is refers to because their origin is from around India. It has the same meaning as the word Gypsy in English, nothing less, nothing more.

Why aren’t more people freaking out about the new Venezuelan labor law?
You know, the one that gives housewives/full-time mothers a pension— wages for housework?
It’s ONLY A HUGE VICTORY FOR FEMINISM, SOCIALISM, AND WOMEN OF COLOR. Not a big deal or anything. Tumblr is mysteriously silent about this.

The Associated Press’s Sue Ogrocki was among the first photojournalists on scene in storm-ravaged Moore, Oklahoma. Among the images she captured: children being pulled from the Plaza Towers Elementary School, where as many as 75 students and staff had sheltered during the tornado, which all but completely leveled the town.
