What's the stupidest thing anyone has ever told you as fact?

 Blåhaj Piefed is brought to you by the kind folk at Blåhaj Zone, and while anyone is free to register for an account here, please bear in mind that this is a server that is very protective of our minority members and bigotry of any variety will be squashed with great prejudice. We have a public matrix channel for all Blahaj users at [#blahaj:chat.blahaj.zone](https://matrix.to/#/#blahaj:chat.blahaj.zone) We also have a matrix channel for gender diverse folk and our allies! If you're already a matrix user, you can head straight to our application room https://matrix.to/#/#gv-apply:chat.blahaj.zone, or by searching for #gv-apply:chat.blahaj.zone from within your matrix client. If you're new to matrix, you can find some more details and an instruction video on how to get up and running here https://chat.blahaj.zone/c/genderverse/ **Community Guidelines** Blåhaj Piefed is a space where everyone should feel able to participate safely, and to that end, our community is built on the guiding philosophies of empathy, inclusion and acceptance. *Empathy* We want our community members to be guided by compassion and empathy for others. Examples of behaviour that are contrary to this philosophy are personal attacks, insults, doxing etc. If your comment is designed to hurt someone, this isn't the space for it. *Inclusion and Acceptance* Embracing inclusion and acceptance means listening when people tell you who they are and what their needs are. It means not telling people that you know their experiences better than they do. It means not gatekeeping experiences of identities of others. It means no bigotry such as racism, sexism, anti LGBT commentary, ableism etc. It means doing your best to ensure that you don't over-talk the voices of folk who don't share your privileges. **Supporting Blåhaj Piefed** After much hesitation, [we have a Ko Fi](https://ko-fi.com/blahajzone) to enable people to help with supporting some of the running costs associated with our instances. Providing a safe space for our community is the goal, so please only consider donating if you are in a position to do so without *any* financial stress. **Mascot and logo** Find out about our mascot Shonky (they/them) who appears on our site logo [here](https://github.com/blahaj-zone/shonky).
