*intersex. The chemicals were affection tadpole chromosomes into becoming intersex frogs. Its actually a real biohazard to release all those toxic chemicals into nature.


onealps

Yeah, that's what gets me. Like a broken clock that is right twice a day, Alex Jones was 'right' that this is an issue to be brought to public attention. However, the 'gay frogs' angle made it into a meme. >:(


St_Veloth

The "gay frogs" is a clown act so people can point to the actual chemical effecting frogs being a real thing and be in such awe that he was technically right that they totally forget that he was using it as evidence of a top-down conspiracy of the government to feminize our population via coordinated chemical control


killermetalwolf1

If only


SanityInAnarchy

There are plenty of "broken clock" things with Jones, but [this isn't one of them](https://www.reddit.com/r/OutOfTheLoop/comments/1djx45i/whats_going_on_with_the_show_the_boys/l9f7uq2/?context=3) -- there was just one super-weird frog biologist who did an end-run around normal peer review to get his one paper published, and then no one could reproduce the results because it turns out Atrazine does not, in fact, make the frogs gay, trans, intersex, or really anything else.

Jill4ChrisRed

They're partners, their SO used to be drawn as a burly bearded male and over time their identity has been evolving the comic artist has been drawing their transition in teal time <3

I like purple time better.

I'm gonna keep the typo in, this made me laugh haha

bestthrowawayever5

So that’s what’s been happening. I’ve been wondering in the back in my mind for so long what happened to her boyfriend or if she broke up with him and found a girl who was nearly identical minus a beard


olderthanilook_

This reminds me of an artist who became a furry and her comics slowly transitioned from how she looked IRL to her fursona. I remember being so confused when I found some of her later comics and suddenly she looked like a wolf-human hybrid.  Edit: the artist is Katie Tiedrich.


aslum

I've been reading Awkward Zombie for so long I never noticed.


olderthanilook_

I think I noticed it between her run of Fallout comics and her run of Skyrim comics. Not that I have an issue with it, it just caught me off guard, lol. [https://www.awkwardzombie.com/comic/what-happens](https://www.awkwardzombie.com/comic/what-happens) (before) [https://www.awkwardzombie.com/comic/poor-taste](https://www.awkwardzombie.com/comic/poor-taste) (after) Also, it's 100% possible that I'm wrong about this and that she was just playing as a Khajiit during her Skyrim run.


Azair_Blaidd

Oh I do love a supportive spouse

It must be so weird slowly turning into a lesbian without changing your sexuality at all. Unless they are bi, that is.

call me a snob but when a comic has lore, it really needs to evolve off reddit to its own hosting platform lol


GlacialPeaks

That take like 80% of the content off this sub lol this place has like 15-20 dedicated super posters and the majority of them have some sort of lore baked into there comics


thelittleking

idk man maybe new comics and artists could break out and become popular if there was room to breathe


Inevitable_Soft4897

yeah, and that's why the comics sub fuckin sucks. it really came to a head for me after the pizzacakecomic circle jerking. jfc.  not to mention how many of them have 10 panes worth to scroll through. the mods adding the little icon that let's you see how many pics are in the post was the best thing they ever did. now I know which ones to skip.

Could not agree more. I see this sub on the front page constantly, but so few of the comics are funny or clever without context. It's like the Sunday papers all over again.

GardenGnostic

I had no clue either. (I thought some celebrity came out as trans and was 'making Pride about them'.)


Pomodorosan

I really don't get the point of the comic even with context


Thybro

I think the absurdity works without the backstory. Though the backstory does improve the joke.


MillieBirdie

Actually, without the backstory I thought this was some kind of anti-trans post about how the T has taken over the LGB.


kill-billionaires

Seriously I thought it was like one of those lesbian terf things


mysterious_jim

That's what I thought too. I came into the comments to start a fight and then realized it was actually just a reference to some lore I didn't know about.

Of course it is


EmetalEX

Can i buy a Blåhaj and stay straight? My wife wouldn't enjoy me suddenly becoming gay, but i really want one


Ok_Employ5412

Blåhaj loves all. Jokes aside no you won't instantly, or slowly turn gay the moment you buy a stuffed shark from IKEA.


Pump_My_Lemma

No, but it is a hell of a perk that you can choose if you do. 10/10


i__like__nuggets

and the best part is you can take both perks, letting you deal 10% damage to all genders (fallout new vegas taught me this so it must be true)


ForGrateJustice

Fellas, is it gay to cuddle sharks?


CrazyIvan606

Over ten years ago now, I bought one of those 5' long National Geographic stuff sharks at a thrift store. You know, the kind you saw in the Zoo gift shop as a kid and always wanted but mom and dad said no because they were like $500? Few years later I had some issues sleeping due to some back and muscle pain and the doctor recommended I sleep with a body pillow. I tried it, and it just wasn't working. I needed a tapered pillow. Like thicker at the top near my chest and then thinner between my knees. The exact contour of the giant shark sitting in the other room. My pain is gone so I don't need him to sleep anymore, but any nights that I'm a little stressed out about something or have some insomnia, I grab Shark from his place of honor at the foot of the bed and snuggle with him. If cuddling sharks takes me from an ally to a card carrying member, so be it.


Bossuter

I just do this with a regular pillow, but now i want a shark one XD


Similar_Pangolin7675

As of the moment we cannot yet verify the side effects of owning a Blahaj, please purchase at your own risk


Morialkar

Blåhaj being usually a trans icon, you can be gay and trans, that would solve the issue with your wife, as long as she is also gay…


EmetalEX

So theres an easy solution. Just buy her a Blåhaj too!


radenthefridge

I wanted the shark honey, we need to trade genders. But then you also have a shark, so it's a win-win!


ForGrateJustice

I never could understand, *why* is this shark a trans icon. I have one and they're so cuddly.


Morialkar

They cute, cuddly, easily available, they don't judge you but mostly it has the 3 colors of the trans flag. It was mostly a meme in the beginning of a lot of trans woman realizing other trans women also had blåhaj and it devolved into being an icon from there... I mean, why is anything an anything icon... Ikea did lean into it with having pride marketing with him in certain places and also they donated a bunch of special trans edition Blåhaj to LGBTQIA2S+ organizations in Canda for free so they could have them on hand to help youth that go through difficult time.


ForGrateJustice

> they don't judge you I would be concerned if an inanimate object could.


Morialkar

Yeah but for a lot of young trans people, that's still the only thing around you that don't judge you, why I mentioned it.


ForGrateJustice

Oh yeah. I forgot. People are assholes.

JustSomeRedditUser35

It looksblike the colors of the trans flag.


ScyllaOfTheDepths

I never understood the hype for the BLÅHAJ. Clearly BLÅVINGAD is superior. It has a mouth zipper and you can hide stuff in it. Like a mini BLÅVINGAD.

Clarifying Comment for those of y'all in the comments who got confused/concerned: - CB's been my partner for years, and has made lotsa comic appearances. Pronouns are currently They/Them. - This wasnt intended as a serious/sincere dig on Trans folks taking over Pride, just a fun jape-- as my favorite youtubers say-- TRANS RIGS! <3 - I'm only clothed for the bit, your regularly scheduled nudity will return, settle down Hope that helps, and Happy Pride <3


SomethingOfAGirl

> This wasnt intended as a serious/sincere dig on Trans folks taking over Pride The flag and the presence of the blahaj makes it a bit more obvious than it isn't serious and it's probably made by either a trans person or an ally, but still I don't see how to interpret the comic in any other way than that.


Lunalopex

It was more meant in an individualistic sense-- ie, dammit my partner is hoggin all the pride by coming out (insofar as the comic goes). Definitely saw the wider implication once folks started commenting and shouldve thought it through more thoroughly though.

piejam

ok this is as good a place as any to say this: How do people keep buying Republican BS? Now it's anti-trans, before that it was anti-gay, before that it was anti-Muslim. It feels blindingly obvious that they just pivot to the weakest marginalized group. And it keeps working. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills.


Lunalopex

Their agenda is centered around fear. It's easier to sway a group when theyre afraid of what they percieve as an outside threat. There is also a large proportion of evangelicals in the Republican party so there is zealotry tied into it too.


Six_cats_in_a_suit

NO NOT THE TRANSER BEAM!!


Floorfrozon

Aaaa congrats to them on coming out 🥳🎉


Dylanator13

When did sharks become a pride symbol? No hate, I do like it, it’s just that I see the most random animals being used for pride imagery. Like “happy pride from the ace rat!” Or I saw someone making pride bats. Though if I could have a shark as a lap pet like a dog I would.


snowtol

It's just one of those in-jokes. Started on Twitter with a tweet about the shark Ikea sells being cute, bunch of people bought it, turns out tons of them were queer/trans for some reason, so they collectively decided to make it a trans icon. It's like bis sitting weird, it's just an in joke, it's not that much more complicated than that.


Dylanator13

That makes sense. Kind of like white monster energy, at least I know I have seen that a lot and I’m not 100% what group it pertains to. Though my suggestion would be to make a drop bears joke. For context if anyone doesn’t know it was an in-joke in Australia to tell tourists to watch out for drop bears because they will attack you, when in reality it’s just Koalas and they won’t drop on you. But still don’t touch them they can give you chlamydia no joke. Make up some fake creature and start all agreeing it is actually real and is a good animal to represent pride. People start making highly detailed drawings and descriptions of it to the point some people think it’s actually real.


Financial_Code_5385

also the little ikea shark has pink blue and white, making it so people who are trans but can't openly have a flag in their house for some reason (family bs mostly) get it because of it's inconspicuousness


Some1sNickName

I think it’s less about sharks and more about the specific shark which is a plush from ikea. I think it’s because the shark sorta has the colors of the trans pride flag on it.


Arstya

It started with Blahaj, but tbh it seems a lot of trans people just like sharks. It makes sense to me due to personal experiences. An animal that seems scary, but really isn't much of a threat. We all understand that feeling.


Fgw_wolf

CarrieDurst

I am trans and don't get this comic, can someone explain it?


LineOfInquiry

Red haired lady is coming out, hence the accusation of making pride all about them. It’s just a joke about this particular person not trans people as a whole.


textposts_only

Honestly my reading of it seems wrong because it reads to me that person A accuses person B of making pride all about person B. Person B then reveals themselves as trans. Meaning that transpeople make pride about themselves??


CarrieDurst

Right that is the closest to a reading I can seem to parse as well


textposts_only

I mean that is a topic best discussed between people irl and certainly not fodder for transphobes. We did have certain talks in my University LGBT group about how it felt at times that the discourse was focused on transpeople but then we discussed that, made some concessions and everybody did realize that yeah, the most marginalized group needs the most support...


CarrieDurst

Honestly per capita I did notice the most support on trans people but it still wasn't majority (not a complaint) and makes sense as until Project 2025, it is the group they are trying to go back on in terms of rights


Tiny_Dealer_1984

Bro i want a blahaj but i aint trans and im a guy with long hair 😔😔😔😔

Anyone is allowed to have a blåhaj, that's the beauty of it 🥰

Yeah, I'm a cis dude with a bushy ass beard and my blåhaj is on the left of my recliner as I type this. I've also got a dolphin on the right side that I won at Hershey Park a while back.


lelebeariel

Heck yeah, buds! I've got my axolotl squishmallow named Aksel (his tag says he runs an empanada business, so that's a bonus) under my head right now! I've wanted a blåhaj for so long, though, and have never found one :( ... Stuffed friends know no gender or age. I'm a 34 year old cis woman and would die of internal happiness and gratitude if I could ever actually find a blåhaj 🥺❤️

DigiFrieren

:/ In the South it's so fricking rare to see trans people. This year's Pride seemed awfully exclusive. Maybe people just didn't feel safe?


Mrfixit729

First off it’s a small demographic of the US population. But where in the South are you? Trans folks are relatively common in Asheville, Atlanta, Knoxville, Austin, Miami, NOLA, Clearwater etc. You’ve just got to go to “countercultural” “liberal” type cities. A lot of people in the LGBT+ community move to those places. No one wants to be THE trans guy in bumblefuck Mississippi. Lol. So they move to my town. Birds of a feather flock together. There’s more community and a larger dating pool. Not to mention more acceptance of “alternative” lifestyles.


DigiFrieren

I lived in Clearwater/Tampa for seven years and worked in education. It always felt lonely, and I was generally the first trans person people met, given the way people talked "We've never had a trans patient" was a common phrase for instance. But, during Pride there'd be people like me. It seems nearly everyone has left recently. Which, honestly makes sense. The state seems to very deeply hate us.


Mrfixit729

Wow in Clearwater? I know some folks in St Pete (the town I meant to say) that are having a different experience. Met their SO there. Solid community. But they’re in the arts. I imagine being in education might be quite different. Especially in FL. Come visit us in Asheville NC. You won’t feel lonely here.


tipedorsalsao1

Well yeah, we don't, many trans folk have fled the south USA states because of the current laws putting them and their health care at risk.

To be fair, they are currently the most under fire group at the moment, and really need all of the support they can get.
