    “Dehomed” is such a better term than “homeless” or “unhoused”. First term I’ve heard that doesn’t put the blame on the person without a home.

    Even “unhoused” is too neutral of a term for how people often end up without secure shelter.

      Unhoused genuinely seems like a tip toe attempt to make saying homeless less ugly or like it’s a word to sidestep bs YouTube guidelines like unalive. It’s dumb. Not having a home sucks.

      If I were to pick between the two then “dehomed” explains it better than “unhoused”. But “homeless” definitely defines what it feels like when it happens to you.
