We have Unicode these days: blåhaj
How do I type that on a desktop without a numpad and without putting “å” into my clipboard?
On Windows, you can open the emoji picker with Win+. or Win+, (depending on locale iirc). Then just switch to the symbols tab by clicking the omega symbol and chose å
Alternatively, you can install PowerToys, which includes a quick accentuator tool.

Failing that win+r and type
charmap. You can browse symbols there.charmap.exe? Holy shit. Windows 95 called, but I didn’t have a 33.6k modem ready to answer.
TIL blahaj refers to a soft toy shark sold by IKEA.
Would the association with the transgender community be news to you, or is that how you first heard the term?
No that’s new to me too, based off me searching the word and seeing the Wiki article on the toy. I’d seen the word because of one of the instances (blahaj zone), but I literally never see the word outside of Lemmy.
Well, heads-up: it’s called that for a reason.
