It's probably for the best that she's less online, as things can suck here, but her stuff is iconic.

Last I heard about her absence was this blog. In short, it wasn't the bigots who drove her away, but transfems who don't appreciate that there isn't a monolithic trans experience. A ton of the most brutal vitriol against trans creators comes from within the community.

There seems to be a tiny minority of toxic shitheads who spearhead it, trying to police and purity test people's identities. These ghouls are small enough to instigate drama without much recourse, as people forget about them quickly after they get debunked and called out. They're so successful because they exploit the insecurities and trauma of other queer people. They get people to earnestly side with them, resulting in their narratives becoming popular. Many people have left the internet for significant periods as a result.

Ah I see. It's so unfortunate that people like this exist, who turn online interaction into something one need to be just as careful about as IRL. Thankfully I've only had positive experiences here on blahaj zone...

What's the saying? Apathy is worse than hate. It's easy to overlook the bigots because their hate is expected and nothing will change it. But when members of your own community pick you apart for absolutely no reason, it hurts so much worse because we're supposed to be supporting each other and instead ensure nothing meaningful actually gets done.

Welcome to femcel memes. A place where anybody can post memes that fit the vibe.

Warning: We have a tendency to post things that may at times come from a self-deprecating perspective or things that are funny coming from another queer person. This space will always be a safe place for transfems, non-binary people, people with a feminine gender expression (GNC or otherwise) or anybody else in the LGBT Community to come together and share about our experiences but we truly feel that laughing about the sometimes silly and embarrassing parts the queer experience can help bring us together. We never mean offense or harm in anything posted but rather they are satirical takes coming from queer people.

A note about 'Egging': Our community is mostly made up of transfem individuals, and as such most memes posted will be posted with the intention of having a transfem perspective. However, regardless of gender identity, all feminine presenting individuals are welcome here. Whether that means you're NB, GNC, transmasc, or any other identity, you are welcome here. It is not our intention or goal to invalidate these identities. If something makes you uncomfortable, please feel free to report the post and I will address your concerns on an individual level. For more information regarding the problems with 'Egg-culture', please see Here.

Love Y'all and thank you for following this community
