Person below us posted a pic of some sharks around a table. That's a plushie that Ikea sells. Its name is blåhaj (swedish for blue shark).

It’s def a bit of an open in-joke within the gay/trans/bi communities. I can’t recall how it came about but it was a whole-ass big thing a few years ago and now it’s just a part of the culture. Both me (trans non-binary) and my (trans-masc) roommate have one.
