TLDR: IKEA (the Swedish furniture company) sold a shark (blahaj) plushie that people compared to the trans flag (blue, pink, and white) and it kind of stuck. Pretty interesting.
*still sells
plus, it’s a plushie so it’s lovely and huggable – my guess is that such warm contact can feel gender-affirming (I’m not trans but I do have a Blåhaj)
Razer the blåhaj, both for solidarity with trans people and because a shark driving a kart is just too cool not to pick him.
Shark is the symbol for trans people now?

Plushies are indeed very huggable
