Auntie Tom

On 4chan's /lgbt/ board (/tttt/), a pejorative for trans people (particularly trans women) who attempt to win the support/approval of transphobes by catering to them. These people often denigrate themselves to fall just outside transphobes' claims as to why trans people are bad (thus allowing themselves to be "one of the good ones") while looking down on other trans people (the "bad ones").

One notable Auntie Tom is Blaire White. Like many transmedicalists and conservatives, she ridicules non-binary people, has said to trans women "you are not trans", is "against" transgender children being allowed to transition in any form (medical or social), and that even acknowledging a child's transness is "grooming". (Blaire voted for Trump in 2016, 2020, and 2024.)

Like Uncle Toms, Auntie Toms fail to realize they are only "one of the good ones" as a matter of convenience. As a historic parallel, consider the Association of German National Jews, a Jewish organization that supported Adolf Hitler because they believed the Nazis would only wipe out the "racially inferior" Eastern European Jews right up until they were all sent to the concentration camps.

In much the same way, Auntie Toms are also tokens, tokens which will eventually be spent. When they get upset over transphobic laws stripping their rights, conservatives shrug and move on because they don't actually care about the "good ones". And if trans death camps ever get built, Auntie Toms will also meet their demise.
Calm down Auntie Tom, the RNC isn't for another month.

Typical Auntie Tom behavior.

The word 'flag' as pronounced by people with thick Belfast accents. The term is a perfect encapsulation of the disproportionate and overblown reaction to the removal of the Union Jack (as in 'de fleg') from above City Hall in Belfast. Where previously it had flown for 365 days per year, it is now flown on 17 designated days of the year - in line with many other British cities.

The event caused a portion of the Protestant community ('fleggers') to make international pricks of themselves as they proceeded to wreck the fucking place, claiming it was another erosion of a 'British' identity they perceive to have been under attack since the horrifying spectre of equality reared its head in Northern Ireland.

The word 'fleg' - and indeed 'fleggers' - fittingly describes a section of humanity unconcerned with knowledge, reality or the vagaries of the English language. Like America's tea-baggers they are ruled by instinct, fear and paranoia with a side dish of rampant bigotry and startling ignorance of the world around them.
"Wat de fuck like! The taigs got de fleg took down! Let's wreck de fuckin place! No surrender!"

"De fleg has been took down! Before ye know it there'll be a united Ireland! Attack Short Strand! God Save The Queen!"

To take something small, that doesn't quite qualify as a theft. Probably from the Danish "skæv" or the Dutch "scheef", both of which are pronounced similarly, meaning "askew, or not quite right'. To change an item's ownership without permission, but only something small and of little worth.
"I skeefed an apple off the neighbor's tree." "I skeefed some chips outta your bag when you looked away." "Don't skeef my chair when I go to the bathroom."

Hair spider

A tight, tangled knot of loose hair and lint that forms inside clothing during the clothes dryer cycle. It typically hides inside garments, causing an annoying lump or a phantom tickling sensation against the skin until it is found or falls out onto the floor during folding.
