in case you ever thought i was exaggerating when i said leftists and otherwise very oppressed people also are disgustingly racist towards Roma. what a joke.

    Yuck.

    OP, before I was exposed to your posts, all I knew about Romani was "deep in the forest there is a glen, where gypsies play on the violin" along with some "whirling and twirling", and then some unflattering portrayals in Tintin comics. You've filled a large gap in my understanding of European history.

        Also I dug into the architecture twete, because.

        Those balconies are really cool. The multiple-tiered roofs look kinda extra, but such is art- also, I wouldn't be surprised if the impression of additional "sturdiness", like a thick helmet, was intentional in the character of it.
