Community Rules

You must post before you leave

Be nice. Assume others have good intent (within reason).

Block or ignore posts, comments, and users that irritate you in some way rather than engaging. Report if they are actually breaking community rules.

Use content warnings and/or mark as NSFW when appropriate. Most posts with content warnings likely need to be marked NSFW.

Most 196 posts are memes, shitposts, cute images, or even just recent things that happened, etc. There is no real theme, but try to avoid posts that are very inflammatory, offensive, very low quality, or very "off topic".

Bigotry is not allowed, this includes (but is not limited to): Homophobia, Transphobia, Racism, Sexism, Abelism, Classism, or discrimination based on things like Ethnicity, Nationality, Language, or Religion.

Avoid shilling for corporations, posting advertisements, or promoting exploitation of workers.

Proselytization, support, or defense of authoritarianism is not welcome. This includes but is not limited to: imperialism, nationalism, genocide denial, ethnic or racial supremacy, fascism, Nazism, Marxism-Leninism, Maoism, etc.

Avoid AI generated content.

Avoid misinformation.

Avoid incomprehensible posts.

No threats or personal attacks.

No spam.

Moderator Guidelines

Moderator Guidelines

  • Don’t be mean to users. Be gentle or neutral.
  • Most moderator actions which have a modlog message should include your username.
  • When in doubt about whether or not a user is problematic, send them a DM.
  • Don’t waste time debating/arguing with problematic users.
  • Assume the best, but don’t tolerate sealioning/just asking questions/concern trolling.
  • Ask another mod to take over cases you struggle with, if you get tired, or when things get personal.
  • Ask the other mods for advice when things get complicated.
  • Share everything you do in the mod matrix, both so several mods aren't unknowingly handling the same issues, but also so you can receive feedback on what you intend to do.
  • Don't rush mod actions. If a case doesn't need to be handled right away, consider taking a short break before getting to it. This is to say, cool down and make room for feedback.
  • Don’t perform too much moderation in the comments, except if you want a verdict to be public or to ask people to dial a convo down/stop. Single comment warnings are okay.
  • Send users concise DMs about verdicts about them, such as bans etc, except in cases where it is clear we don’t want them at all, such as obvious transphobes. No need to notify someone they haven’t been banned of course.
  • Explain to a user why their behavior is problematic and how it is distressing others rather than engage with whatever they are saying. Ask them to avoid this in the future and send them packing if they do not comply.
  • First warn users, then temp ban them, then finally perma ban them when they break the rules or act inappropriately. Skip steps if necessary.
  • Use neutral statements like “this statement can be considered transphobic” rather than “you are being transphobic”.
  • No large decisions or actions without community input (polls or meta posts f.ex.).
  • Large internal decisions (such as ousting a mod) might require a vote, needing more than 50% of the votes to pass. Also consider asking the community for feedback.
  • Remember you are a voluntary moderator. You don’t get paid. Take a break when you need one. Perhaps ask another moderator to step in if necessary.

German text translates to:

so. Do I now fit better under the transfeminine category? Or am I still do hard to interpret?

lets hope dis gets me somewhere...
wish me luck. ill need it in 14.5 hours (EDIT: thad is 15:00 UTC)

~this~ ~time~ ~i~ ~uploaded~ ~it~ ~to~ ~catbox~ ~immediately!~ ~no~ ~space~ ~taken~ ~on~ ~the~ ~blahaj~ ~servers,~ ~and~ ~fxomt~ ~gets~ ~to~ ~see~ ~it~ ~too!~

EDIT: a peep wantd to hear whads goin on, so i went oh yis why nt share ~

so here we go, brand new lore gettin handed our for freehere the lil story ~

  • i startd doin therapy ovr half yea ago
  • first session therapist said "many peeps com here n jus wait til they get hrt"
  • second session i said som vrri ew adult wrords: "i rlli hate how my legsies look, always wear long pants now"
  • therapist lik "dun say such evil, selfdeprecatn adult wrords!"
  • afterwards i used vrri vrri vrri soft language to describ my feelins (evn tho i usually alrdi do that a lot) like
    • "im nt quite sur bout gendr bt meh, is nt so importnt"
    • "i feels kindsa uncomfs bt is fine ~"
    • "theres nt mch holdin me alive rn besides mothr, frens n dum bs who-givs-a-smol-poop ai project. so im safe!"
      • apparntli she didn realize i was sain im ... lik - rlli sad.
  • my other kinda-therapist told me thad she thinks that actual-therapist doesn seem to undrstnd me n wantd to call
    • she did! turns out, actual-therapist truly didn get any of thad. i was softenin things too mch 🛌 🍼 💖 :mamakisseslilone: :mamaputsliltobed:
  • today is new therapy session since... over two months (evil holidays n othr stuff preventd stff)
    • after call, kinda-therapist told me thad actual-therapist believes increasin sessino frequence is gud idea to weekly...

so yea!

i feel i hav to rlli lik - put my feelins out somehow so im goin with a literature type, cuz i did slideshows too oftn alrdi (not with her, bt with other peeps)

imma call it

"die 'slideshows sind langweilig, deshalb mache ich seitensammlung' seitensammlung"

which translates to

"the 'slideshows r boring, thads why im mekin a page-collection' page-collection"

to... bring things across frfr dis time while:

  • bein truthful
  • not overexaggeratin bt also VRRI mch not underexaggeratin
  • not bein self-deprecatin too mch
  • not bein manipulative
  • not bein too weird
  • bein somewhat entertainin (so therapist enjoys time at least a lil bt..)

i tend to always undershare when it coms to bad or sad stuffs bout myself. bt dis time, NO! i hav written things down!!!! i cn jus hold myself to it like a script!

worst case, i realize im sugar-coatin again, n jus giv her the page collection <3

this way, i try n be easy to read n understand, while also not seemin genuinely insane (i hav a fear.. thad she thinks i genuinli need lik - mor in-depth kindsa therapy.... with lik ... feel-gud-drugs n stuff... i dun wan thad. thad feels lik cheatin, also i kno thad all my happiness is fake, so it becoms worthless)

tldri feel a need to signify clearly to my therapist thad i am transfem. she still somehow thinks im jus gay, evn tho i told her, thad currntli im not, n i duno why she keeps bringin thad possibiliti up... lik - am i thad hard to read?!?
