!egg_irl

!egg_irl is for widely relatable memes about questioning one's gender or being an egg (a trans person in denial) as well as other eggy topics.

If you are looking for a place to discuss something specific to you or especially if you need help or are in crisis, we have communities and resources that can support you linked at the bottom of this sidebar.

General Rules:

  1. No bigotry.

  2. No spam, bots, or vote farming.

Rules on Content:

  1. No reposts.

  2. No personal-life posts, bingo cards, quizzes, selfies, "trans/not trans" lists, picrew, or non-memes.

  3. No visible names or usernames.

  4. Do not post or link to pornography.

Rules on Post Titles and Tags:

  1. Posts must be titled "egg_irl". An emoji or two is OK, but they have to be between "egg" and "irl".

  2. 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]
  3. You may optionally include other tags, such as:

    • [Transmasc Meme]
    • [Transfem Meme]
    • [Nonbinary Meme]
    • [Gender-Nonspecific Meme]

Rules on Post Text:

  1. If possible, include an image description for accessibility.

  2. Add sources for art.

Rules on Comments

  1. If a post is tagged with a specific gender identity, keep the conversation centered on that identity.

  2. 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 coolβ€”just say so.

Oh shoot, episode 2 is out this evening, yay!

I will gladly admit to wanting to cosplay Rem.

Now: I have my own Estrogen and cake will make me fat, but let's hang out.

Past: Nah man, I'm cool being a guy. But we can still hang out. By the way, where do you keep the cake? Just so I don't accidentally eat any of it, you understand.

[–] TotallynotJessica 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Of course! It's in a white box in the refrigerator. There's an ice cream cake in the freezer, but it's infused with spironolactone... which helps with gastrointestinal health!

Oh I see, well... I suppose it would be rude not to have some, in that case! I don't suppose you have any progesterone sprinkles? :3

where does one acquire such cakes?

I love that they let me take estrogen even though I'm not a girl, I feel like I'm cheating the system

[–] TotallynotJessica 7 points 2 months ago

There's no way to cheat control over your own body! Laws and institutions deserve no respect if they don't give you that choice.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 months ago

I would instantly take it even when I was an egg

Can you overdose on estrogen?

[–] TotallynotJessica 2 points 2 months ago (2 children)

You can overdose on anything. The real questions are how much you need to overdose and what organ will breakdown first.

[–] SendMePhotos 3 points 2 months ago

Probably like 4 and probably the filtration system.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

It can cause blood clots which can kinda damage any organ they happen in, heart attacks and strokes are very likely. It can also cause liver toxicity, gall stones, and even kidney damage as well as a multitude of other awful things. It also can cause the exact opposite effects that would be desired from Estrogen at high dosage, more estrogen β‰  more changes and more faster please.

In short, it's a bad idea. Can cause a lot of serious damage, and even negate the purpose for doing it in the first place. Stick to the acceptable dose if you want it or need it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

Absolutely, it can be quite damaging.
