ANNOUNCEMENT Clarification on Wild Weekend content (self-inserts)
The majority of posts so far have been Wild Weekend posts. And the majority of the Wild Weekend posts I've been seeing are general enough to fall under the weekday rules.
The purpose of Wild Weekends is to provide users with a way to submit self-insert comics. I will try clarify what "self-insert" actually means:
A self-insert character is a character that cannot be generalized. The most obvious examples of this are ballsonas: they are unique to the user and their primary purpose is to represent the user, not to carry the plot or joke forward. Ballsonas are allowed during Wild Weekends as long as they are part of a larger story.
You are allowed to create comics about your experiences on weekdays as long as they can be generalized. For example, if you are asexual and biromantic and your buddy told you a funny bi-ace joke, you can make a comic about it with a bi-ace ball and post it, because other bi-ace people can relate to it too. The bi-ace ball in the comic does not count as a self-insert, because many people are bi and ace.
If you want to make a comic about something unique to you specifically, THAT is what Wild Weekends are for. For example, if you want to create a timeline comic about your self-discovery process. Or if you want to create a comic educating others about a niche microlabel that you like to use. Or if you want to create a group of OCs interacting in a very specific scenario that is unlikely to happen IRL.
I am trying to encourage comics that focus on community. If your post is meant to bring people together, post it on a weekday. If your post is meant to express your individuality, post it on a weekend.

Redditormade Name & Gender (Part 2)
Some much needed clarification I couldn't fit into the comic itself:
- The "Unrelated masc name" was even worse than the fact it's a masc name placed upon someone nb, but ALSO because it just so happened to coincidentally be the name of someone that I know who was actively refusing to call me by the right name until they were forced to.
- This is mostly paraphrasing due to my memory not being perfect- but the name thing is different than with my (trans) brother because the temporary "getting-used-to-it" name was just the letter M, which made at least some amount of sense, plus being gender neutral.
Additionally, while outside the scope of the comic itself, seeing as it was just meant to show what happened that day specifically--My mother has seemingly mostly stopped with this whole thing, though that does not discount what did happen.

Redditormade That awkward moment when u forget being trans
Ive made a couple of lil comics but before I could post anything the sub got locked down, then my ibisPaint stopped working so I couldn’t merge the drawings into one picture 🥹 I guess the world was against me posting, but finally my first ball comic gets to see the light of day.

The yellow and purple ball is gender hoarder, the tongue is an alt version of the same label
