Matt, Let's Talk
Hello photographer matthew, head bitch in charge of hellsite, let's have a chat. Don't worry, I'm gonna be cool about it, just calm down and take a seat, have some tea.
Matt, you did a transphobia.
I know you say you aren't transphobic and for now, i'll give you the benefit of a doubt on that one and assume it's true, but like, buddy, pallie, salt of the earth, sugar lumpkin doodles, you did a transphobia.
You probably didn't mean to do a transphobia and probably don't like that all us trannies are mad at you right now, but you did a transphobia.
I know what predstrogen said you to hurt your feelings, i get it, you aren't used to having people vaugepost about your death like most of the trans people on this site are. But see, what you do is, ignore it. Or in this case. Step back for a second and realize what's happening is a trans woman was feeling frustrated and scared because people on your site had been harassing her heavily for months on end and the lack of response from your staff made her feel like your staff didn't care about her and maybe was actively rooting for the people who wished her harm. And if you think it was unfair that she felt that way about your staff. Maaaaaaaybe it's actually a sign you need to try harder to focus on making this site safer for trans women.
Maybe if your userbase is so fast to assume your staff and you personally hate trans people, maybe you should be more worried about why we have reached this conclusion rather than being mad it's being said to your face. Because this site does feel like it doesn't give a shit about trans people especially trans women.
Maybe if your staff is working hard to ban transphobes from this site, it means you have a larger problem because transphobes are fucking everywhere man. Like they just are. Several of them have shown up in my inbox recently telling me i should harass a trans woman over things that aren't my fuckin business.
Maybe think that if you are crossing social media sites to pick a fight with the person you banned for the mean words, that you might be the one worrying to much about it especially when predstrogen does not know you nor would have any ability to contact you.
And I get that it's scary when people say violent things about you online, they've said them about me. I actually had to contact the FBI once over things people said to me online. It was leagues worse and leagues more specific than what predstrogen said to you. You need to let it go man, you are the CEO of a company, people are gonna be mad at you sometimes and you have to have thicker skin than coming off a sabbatical to dm random trans women asking why they don't like you.
Just like, say you fucked up man. Say that you did in fact do an accidental transphobia and then try and fix the things that made you think you weren't doing an accidental transphobia. It's not that hard man. Just drop the ego, admit you did a stupid, and try harder.

i understand being tired of the oppressive systems around us and having to pay for good therapy and the NHS sucks and job market sucks and capitalism sucks etc etc and i understand how shitty it must be to be told that the solution to fix The Ailments caused at least in part by The System is to engage further w the system but i swear to god wallowing in depression and doing absolutely nothing to better yourself or change things for yourself is not the rebellion you think it is !! you're not rejecting the system you're just existing within it doing nothing and being horribly depressed while resigning yourself to horrible depression for life !!!!! being like "yeah well the nhs sucks so i wont even TRY therapy what does talking to someone do anyway. what do meds do anyway." etc etc bc smn on reddit said fluoxetine didn't work for them and not contacting any of the ppl who you ghosted bc you got anxious abt it like 2 yrs ago is not a flex it is not a rejection of the omnipresent system it's not making u special or More Vulnerable Than others at some point u have to choose to get better bro omg.

my day truly just throws curveball after curveball at me. anyways i just learned that without an official letter of acceptance from my home institution i will not be allowed to renew my lease for my campus apartment for next year. and since my home institution admits PhD students directly into professors’ labs, this essentially means that in order to stay in my apartment i have to decide where i will be working and who i will be working with for at least the next five years. and i have to make this decision within a WEEK. which is fucking bullshit because professors are still reading through PhD applications and i’m still getting contacted by professors like are you going to tell me i am not allowed to wait for them to recruit me? or i mean i will be allowed but i won’t have housing guaranteed. i am not going to move out of my apartment just to move back in to another one where i don’t even know if i’m going to get a roommate who’s going to hate me for being myself. i just want to cry

Saw this prompt for incorrect OC quotes and couldn't resist with a bunch of my Breach goobers. Some of them would absolutely say these things word for word in canon if I gave them half the chance to, though. XD
They're in order of when they showed up in person - Qīng, Ghost, Red, Marisol, Shio, Cam, Daruk, Tawoos, and Alondra - as well as some important honorable mentions who have only been mentioned or gotten dialogue - Star, Blake, and Creation.
Star's design is a slight spoiler, I suppose, but it doesn't reveal if they're human or impostor, so it's all good. Creation's "design" also isn't a spoiler at all, because They can look however They want, LOL. As for Shio...some of you who have seen the body horror I've done of them may be wondering why they look so normal here, but I promise there are Reasons. :3c
In other news, will I be making a liar out of Shio in an upcoming Breach canon divergence? ..........Maybe~ >:3c
