Femcel Memes

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

Its not really failing is it 😒

[–] TheEntity 55 points 2 months ago (1 children)

It's probably very much failing according to the corporate metrics of infinite growth. Good!

[–] TotallynotJessica 39 points 2 months ago

Good thing there's no profit motive to self hosting for Linux users, leftists, and queer people! (I know that's a ven diagram that's basically a circle :3)

[–] [email protected] 26 points 2 months ago

Nah it’s doing alright.

[–] FilthyShrooms 11 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I mean, I don't think it's gaining users, and is losing some. I'd love to see any statistics that prove me wrong

[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Here are some charts.
Active Users seem to be slightly declining, but overall users and posts are growing (slowly but steady). The big cuts in the-federation.info I suspect to be bot purges.

Charts of the-federation.info , fedidb.org , fedia.io

Seems steady otherwise so yeah not dying. Maybe after the next big stupid reddit decision we gain some more people.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 months ago

Maybe they were talking about Tumblr, Tumblr is absolutely failing.

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

You’re here, and still the life of the party. Would we call that a failure?

not going to lie, if a femcel came over and started doing stuff on my linux box, even more than what i knew, that would be the first time i would get hearts in my eyes.

"so how did you meet your partner?" "oh she made me some very nice dotfiles for my system. i thought id never meet someone with such grace on the keyboard and beauty in the glow of the screen" "what the fuck?"

EDIT: msg me if you want see my dotfiles ;)

Hey! We do good work with our popularity <3

Good work?A ton of similar communities on sites like reddit aren't so supportive. Like many mentally ill communities, they feed off of their worst instincts instead of their best. That may be rewarding, but it also convinces people that they can continue being horrible to themselves.

I'm really proud of everyone here for not wallowing in our self hatred. I want us to be open about our struggles and insecurities, but I also hope we can offer a helping hand to each other as well. We can't be perfect, but we can try our best to be good.

I can't and won't force people to "get help," because I know it doesn't work like that. The only person who can save oneself is oneself. Our life is our responsibility, not just because that's how it should be, but because that's how it truly works. We can only get what we give at most, so I want to make sure people get a fair exchange while they're here.

awesome there's a supporting community!

[–] [email protected] 20 points 2 months ago

I just think

FEMCEL MEMES

Are pretty neat

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 months ago

Yes. Yes you are.

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

Genuinely not sure if it means lemmy or tumblr.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 months ago

Me too but we're getting better together

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

HEY! I'm not mentally i'll. Probably.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

well i spent time in the psych ward and first they told me i have bipolar, then borderline personality disorder, and GAD. im he/him but i think it was just the loneliness getting to me. I feel like i can't share my views or how im very privacy centric with my internet traffic without being told to "take my meds"

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago

Way to go! πŸŽ‰

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

i don't want lemmy to blow up and have a bunch of normies and trolls ruin everything, i like it rn

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

This appears to have been posted to Reddit and or Twitter before it was posted to Lemmy. Which is what I want to believe. So I encourage doubt.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

don't call me out like this damn.

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

Probably terminally mentally ill, we'll see how much longer I keep going

I am not entirely sure, but I think it's @Larvadel.
