“Hey are you…(checks list)…Zoning Violation?”
traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns
Rules
1.) No bigotry of any kind, and don't be a jerk either
• Bigotry includes but is not limited to: ableism, casteism, homophobia, lookism, queerphobia, racism, sexism, transphobia, and xenophobia. Bigotry towards non-binary people is transphobia. Truscum rhetoric is also bigotry. You getting punished for your hateful opinion, however, is not bigotry.
2.) No Spam
• This includes both advertising and breaking your or my Lemmy instance's rules, such as vote manipulation or brigading.
3.) Posts must have something to do with being trans, or about trans experiences
• Try to stay away from negative political events too. You can joke about it, but bringing attention to something bad happening in the world might take someone out of their comfort zone— this is an escape from the constant news cycle for some.
4.) No Selfies or Character Creations
• Selfies are not memes! This is not a community for selfies. Picrews and other character creations such as Sims and Mii's are considered bandwagoning, and perhaps can be a part of a different community.
5.) SFW-only
• This is an all ages community, so we prefer it if you take the NSFW stuff to one of the more adult oriented communities. Note: nudity is not allowed, we want everybody to be comfortable here.
6.) Submissions must be a meme or they will be removed
7.) Swearing is fine, but slurs are not
• We want everybody to feel safe and comfortable here, so even if you want to reclaim a pejorative word that applies to you— we ask that you don't, as this is a light-hearted community and others stumbling across your post might feel unsafe.
8.) Embedded submissions should only link to trusted image sharing sites, no IP grabbers or link shorteners
9.) Use but don't misuse the report button
• If something breaks these rules, or this Lemmy instance's rules, please report it.
10.) Please do not link to any terf, racist, or any other hate communities or forums
• Bigots like those do not deserve any attention. Any post or comment linking to a hate community or forum will be removed
11.) Don't be a jerk nor a troll
• Be nice, and don't create social chaos. That's it. Pretty simple, huh?
Some notes:
1.) We highly encourage you to use alt text in your posts, so everybody can enjoy this community
2.) It would be really nice if you flaired your posts accordingly in the title
• For example, a meme about the non-binary experience could have a title like this: "[NB] Story of my life!" This will make searching for content much easier.
3.) Don't break the law
• This includes the country you live in as well as the country your instance is hosted in
Sibling forums:
!egg_irl
• Trans memes specifically about being closeted, unaware or in denial
!196
• Ordinary memes, but the community is very trans-accepting— and it only has one rule: when you encounter the page you must post a meme from your camera roll
Sorry, Zoning Violation is my brother. I'm xXG4M3R_G0D_420Xx. Easy mistake to make though.
See that convinced me that nicknames (or at least gamer handles) belong in the "evil" tier.
I feel like I disagree with some details here:
Lawful Good should be "genderswapped deadname", like Steve->Stephanie. Neutral Good is the Ciscore name (initials for enbies). Made up name is chaotic good. Really-extra but normal name is lawful neutral.
Is there any girl out there calling herself The Doctor?
I don't think that'd be allowed, since Dr. is in many countries a protected title.
Have you seen a tardis around?
Possibly a stupid question: if I ask my mom what my name would have been if I'd been born the other sex, and then use that, does that count as "keeping your birth name"?
So am I chaotic evil? Username at least.
Does variation on birthname count as true neutral?
Edit: Eh, Who a i kidding? Who doesn't consider Blahåj a deity?
lawful evil. take a guess where from lmao
Minecraft?
Celeste
Celeste
Celeste
correct
i think the creator of celeste also took their own character's name maddy as new name after transitioning.
yeah she did lmao
Sheeeet I am usually chaotic neutral on these charts... lmao I mostly use the neutral/female version of my given name IRL. Ofc Franzia is growing on me, though - name given by a friend.
Where does gender swapping your birth name go?
Between ciscore and keeping their birthname probably?
Tbf, my names are a bit weird to categorize here. I'd probably fit in most categories
assigned chaotic evil at birth 😎
I will always be proud that I came up with the name "bread" for a friend of mine.
Not trans myself, but I don't like my birth name. Id change it to my username. Which is derived from my dogs' names. Which is like Indiana Jones. 😎
Larceny is fucking rad name.
What do I do if I have a bingo?
"Cry when filling out paperwork" would be my guess.
I did consider Ishtar... Alas, social pressures tamped by evil too much.
Guess I'm chaotic good.
I chose my name because it means "prophet," and psychics kept telling me I had really strong spiritual energy, but the name itself is pretty normal.
Yes, I frequently encounter psychics in my daily life. It just occurred to me how weird that is.
Neutral Good and Chaotic Good should be swapped, no?
Hey Defenestration!
I was named after a Tumblr post in 2015.
Elohim
Pros:
- Sounds badass
- Exotic
- Gender-neutral (technically plural, but most often used in the same context as the singular they)
- Originally used as a placeholder name for deities, which I consider trans people to be
- Judeo-Christians take
2d4
holy damage every time they acknowledge you
Cons:
- Who cares, you are a god.
I'm 47% sure I heard of someone named Arson before.
I feel like I want to remake this but with the axes being "inscrutability" and "threatening aura", with "gender-swapped deadname" at top left and "possible cause of death" at bottom right.
It's a made up derivation of an old online username that is pronounced like a noun, but is also after a tertiary character on a relatively niche comedy. As complicated as that sounds, it's a straightforward name. Most people don't need all that info. They just need to know I'm the girl named after a vegetable. It's a very cute name. And the shortened form, which actually came first, seems to be a real name in some non-English-speaking cultures. But really, again, most people just know I'm the vegetable girl.
EDIT: I also occasionally go by Eris for spiritual or ceremonial purposes, but idk if that counts as taking it as a name? It's complicated, tied up in the concept of perpetual invocation, which is itself complicated. Probably not worth the effort to logic out.
There should be a category for slutty names of their generation like Trixie, Wanda, Amber, Tiffany, etc.
Isn't that really part of chaotic good?
Pfft, a Deity chose her name after me.
Maybe I am the Deity o.o
I could never pull it off but... Asherah is such a pretty name....
