Rules on Post Titles and Tags:

-
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:

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. Read more about this decision here.
-
No Ewwphoria posts. Posts which contain misogyny, misandry, transmisogyny, transmisandry, or enbyphobia for the purpose of expressing euphoria are not allowed here. At best they bring anger to others, and at worst they may trigger people's dysphoria. People who create such posts will have them removed and may be banned at moderator discretion.
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.

MODERATORS
Hey yeah I'm here about the pipeline. Is there a queue or something?
Yes, please collect your thigh-highs and preferred Linux distro up at the desk.
Actually they've just informed me that they no longer have copies of arch. So anyone wanting to run it will need to download it themselves. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Due to unexpected user activity volume, we can only provide a single printed LFS tome at this time... please share and collaborate for the time being, while we restock the wallpaper repository sources.
Yep, here's your dash of heavy cream, a spatula... please also take not more than two sample packets of spices from the spice rack, in the event that eggshell integrity is comprimised.
Store these in your pockets, satchel, backpack, handbag, whatever, then please move to the next que'uwu'e of your choosing:
You may choose the 'hovercat' line if you wish to procede with the operating system determinism test.
If you wish to proceede with one of the anime character vicarious identification tests, please find the lines identified by either bocchi the rock, neco-arc, madoka kaname... as you can see, there are a large number of potential choices, I think it goes all the way down to sailor moon... that way, you see the signs, that way.
If you wish to proceede with the post apocalyptic residual self image based interactive simulation test, please follow the folksy securiton on my left toward the sound of distant gunfire.
If all of these choices sound overwhelming, thats ok, thats valid, youre valid, please feel free to head to the squishmallow lounge zone, an attendant will be with you shortly to ascertain whether or not you would prefer an affirmatory headpat, as well as a single complimentary comfort snack from our selection.
Before You Leave!
Please remember that you do in fact already have an egg, and other food items on your person; please do your best to not break of otherwise spill or lose any of these items, each different station will have specific, further instructions for what to do with them when you arrive.

I hope you remembered the egg in your pocket...
I AM the egg in my pocket (am a bit borked)
flips through guide book
You... you and your pocket....are inside your pocket?
... You put a pocket dimension... inside of another pocket dimension... which is itself?
flips furiously through guide book
Uh....yes, indeed you are "a bit borked".
Please roll a saving throw.
... if that is still physically possible / comprehensible.
Oh boy.
