This carrd has been revived by [REDACTED]. I am NOT the original creator of this carrd. I just wanted to bring it back. I removed/added some things that the original had/didn't have. If the original creator wants this taken down, I will happily oblige.


Here we'll discuss the symbols in terms of emojis people use to identify one another in a fandom (mainly) or in general! Some people also use these emojis for layout aesthetic and will not always apply to the user using these emojisPLEASE NOTE
The purpose of this carrd is to act as an information sources hub in order to come to when looking for helpful info in regards to the explanation for symbols in fandoms people/groups.
The carrd itself is not the official source it's just what holds the sources, similar to other informational carrds like this one. Someone has just decided to put all of these together since it can be confusing to some, and there may be some people you want to avoid in fandom/general spaces.Harassment is not encouraged / endorsed / welcomed or wanted when we provide links to threads/sources holding information.When it specifically comes to this carrd, It's the best idea to link the carrd in its entirety when someone is confused or wants to be educated. Other than that, please feel free to share the carrd so others are aware of its presence. Thank you!

ADDITIONALLY, PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT PEOPLE ALSO USE EMOJIS FOR AESTHETIC PURPOSES, NOT ALWAYS FOR IDENTIFICATION. SOME TERMS / SYMBOLS HERE ARE, HOWEVER, SPECIFIC. SO IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR ANYTHING, LOOK FOR THOSE STRAY SYMBOLS.


There are a bunch of other carrds like this that can be useful to you. Please consider taking a look & educating yourself further.

please provide an antiship resource
carrd through tellonym as there isn't
one so far
