Rules on Post Titles and Tags:
Posts must be titled "egg_irl". An emoji or two is OK, but they have to be between "egg" and "irl".
Posts that assume the viewer's gender and/or contain potentially triggering content must be spoilered and tagged at the beginning of the post title. Example content-warning tags that you can copy include the following:
[CW: Assumes Viewer is Transmasc][CW: Assumes Viewer is Transfem][CW: Assumes Viewer is Nonbinary][CW: Transphobia][CW: Violence][CW: Weapons/Firearms][CW: Disturbing Imagery]You may optionally include other tags, such as:
[Transmasc Meme][Transfem Meme][Nonbinary Meme][Gender-Nonspecific Meme]Rules on Post Text:
If possible, include an image description for accessibility.
Add sources for art.
Rules on Comments
If a post is tagged with a specific gender identity, keep the conversation centered on that identity.
You must follow the Egg Prime Directive. You may not push or coerce people into identifying or not identifying a certain way. You must respect them as the gender they claim to identify as. In addition it is extremely in poor taste to make assumptions about other people's identities based on external factors, we understand it cannot be helped but it is best not to as it can affect the way you treat others in noticeable ways.
Recommendations:
We strongly encourage you to include your pronouns in your account bio so that others know how to refer to you without misgendering you. If you're questioning or unsure of your pronouns, that's totally cool—just say so.

Image containing two blocks of text. One block of text takes up the top of the image. The second boock takes up the bottom of the image but has a thinking emoji with the head replaced with an egg in the trans flag color taking up the left quarter of the space available.
Top text: I'm not trans or anything I just want what ever wants:
Bottom text: To transition in order to alleviate my gender dysphoria
What did they say? :(
You don't wanna know
Damn I just skimmed though his profile and wow, he is an insanely toxic individual. Glad he's gone from lemmy.blahaj.zone for good (they banned him from the instance).
quick question: (open to anyone who knows the answer) is rammy.site as a whole transphobic or should i just block this one particular ahole?
It's a very inactive instance, maybe a post every 2-4 days on it. It does not have captcha or application enabled but requires email verification. I haven't received the verification email required to activate an account.
My guess it's a dead instance at this point. If it comes back it might be an issue but it'll probably just get defederated pretty fast.
I don't really see anything particular to indicate that Rammy.site as a whole is a transphobic instance, seems like it's just this specific individual involved.
Fair enough.
