finally got around to finishing Garnet
Dark red, bright pink and magenta are not available in very versatile colours, so some sacrifices had to be made. She’s very poseable but quite fragile. But I’m very happy overall with how she turned out. I’m thinking about the possibility of a pearl and amethyst…
Ooh, I like Elsa in a dark blue dress. :B
though unjustly vilified, the irs performs a vital role in the ecosystem of the economy, picking scraps of meat off the bloated corpses that just lie around taking up space and stinking. a good cartoon.
What the ungodly fuck

HIS HEAD LOOK LIKE A PENIS WITH EARBALLS
Dear fucking lord. Someone send this man back to the kiosk at Six Flags so he can relearn caricature drawing.

Also, I thought I’d do a post on why many Romani people openly refer to themselves as “Gypsy” instead of Romani.
So, in the United States, half of the people don’t even know what the actual terms for us are. Conversations usually go like this:
“Oh are you Italian or something?”
“I’m Romani.”
“Romanian?”
“No. Romani. A diaspora from India.”
“So Indian?”
“*exasperated sigh* Gypsy.”
“Omg! Can you read my palm?!”So, a lot of us honestly just say Gypsy and move on. That doesn’t negate the fact that it’s a slur. So don’t come to me talking about how some Romani people use it therefore it can’t be oppressive. Gadje stop.

Some Rroma will also use the word “Gypsy” among family/very close friends in an effort to reclaim the word or as kind of a joke. My familija, for instance, will sometimes affectionately refer to each other as “crazy gypsies” or “road trash.” But that doesn’t mean gadje are allowed to call us that too. We’ve turned the verbal weapons people used against us for centuries into something positive, a point of pride even. But those phrases are only proud when we use them, and use them on our own terms. Put them back in gadje hands, though, and they become weapons once again.
Ethnic groups are allowed to reclaim slurs that doesn’t mean people outside of those groups can reclaim them.
