Bums, transients, hobos and now...homeless...are all no-nos. It's temporarily unhoused. I remember when my friend's mom picked him up from The Den in university. He was sitting on the curb puking into a pitcher and she said he looked like a skid row bum. You can't even call your own son a skid row bum anymore. It's ridiculous.

Sliver: “it’s not offensive, or derogatory anymore”
Dion: “Actually, the people it is most impactful towards beg to differ. Here is a link explaining why it is still very harmful”
Silver: “Well of course the people it is meant to demean by way of comparison are offended by it. I still think it’s okay to use”

Come on man.
