It’s def a bit of an open in-joke within the gay/trans/bi communities. I can’t recall how it came about but it was a whole-ass big thing a few years ago and now it’s just a part of the culture. Both me (trans non-binary) and my (trans-masc) roommate have one.
How did this post help you figure out the instance name? I don’t see the connection
The IKEA Blahaj shark is a trans/bi/gay plushy icon. The connection of the ‘gayest shit ever’ and ‘blahaj’ in the same meme did it for me.

Person below us posted a pic of some sharks around a table. That’s a plushie that Ikea sells. Its name is blåhaj (swedish for blue shark).

I didnt realize how far spread it was until I saw my friend had one. Thought it might just have been more of an online thing before.
