I don't mean this as an insult, My first thought when I saw this was redneck goth.

[-] Dangdoggo@kbin.social 27 points 2 years ago

That's pretty much the crust punk aesthetic

[-] gabbagabbahey@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago

Where is the crust on a crust punk?

[-] Dangdoggo@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago

The collar I think

Can someone explain to a cishet old fart what the deal is with the soft toy? Don’t get me wrong they look sweet but what’s the meme I’m out of the loop on?

I guessed that given the context. What’s the origin story of the wee fluffy shark becoming an icon?

I’ve seen it on unixsocks before too.

[-] cowboycrustation 35 points 2 years ago

Basically people noticed the colors of Blahaj were similar to that of the trans flag. They'd take funny pictures of Blahaj in weird places. After the meme took off, IKEA made a couple of references and leaned into it, which made it even more of an icon.

Ah cool thanks. :) So Blahaj has been adopted and embraced. Is the name a classic IKEA thing?

[-] Anafabula@discuss.tchncs.de 21 points 2 years ago

Yes, just like basically everything else IKEA sells, Blåhaj it's Swedish. Means "blue shark".

Blahaj is truly the best partner in gender terrorism

The angle and the stripes make it look like your legs are 18" long tops. Lol.

Love the hat.

[-] magnetosphere@kbin.social 11 points 2 years ago

At first I thought this was kinda silly, but then I realized that the silliness only multiplies its awesomeness

[-] ThatFembyWho 9 points 2 years ago

Ah so much gender in one photo.

I want that hat. And the jacket. And the blahaj.

This sounds like a good idea. What kind of harness did you use? Was it intended for a specific pet, or...?

[-] vantablack 3 points 2 years ago

juuuust a tiny dog harness i got at a thrift store :3

[-] DessertStorms@kbin.social 5 points 2 years ago

Add zip, make bag?

(doesn't even have to be inside, could add one on the harness/outside)

[-] SharkEatingBreakfast@sopuli.xyz 5 points 2 years ago

[-] Harbinger01173430@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago
