Edit: Because this post is picking up again and I'm once again getting people annoyed at me because I didn't mention their game or they don't like Portal/TSP for what was supposed to be the set up to an oyster joke I'm turning off rbs. Good day

Finally drew this au [?] thing .. Instead of going public about Ingo’s disappearance to avoid bad publicity for Gear station [Ingo and Emmet are fairly big celebrities], some PR people orchestrate a cover-up and set Emmet up with a zoroark :]
AKA: Emmet is in the middle of grieving and on the verge of having a mental breakdown, all while being haunted by the visage of his missing brother. Psychological horror ensues, etc

I've seen a lot of talk of in-universe social media lately so I just wanted to say I think Jamie has a massive (like 5m+) TikTok following, but almost all of it is girls who either know him from Lust Conquers All or just followed him for his shirtless thirst traps and dgaf about football. He calls them sweettartts or some stupid shit like that. Periodically he gets comments from fragile male sports fans like "what has this world come to, footballers used to be real men and now they wear eyeliner and dance naked online" and the sweettarts doxx them bts army style

unwarranted Cis Opinion but I'm getting really uncomfortable w people responding to bathroom bills by posting pictures of trans men like DO YOU WANT THEM IN WOMEN'S BATHROOMS
bc like. no they're men. they should be in men's bathrooms unless that feels unsafe. but. it really feels like it's not helpful to lean into the idea that seeing someone presenting masc or being read as a man in a women's bathroom means You're In Danger.
like I know several butch women and NB ppl who are really scared around being on T or getting top surgery bc they're not men and they don't want to be in the men's bathroom, and in that circumstance stuff like growing facial hair or reading more androgynously can be really fucking scary when people are being primed by propaganda to be on edge and hyperreactive to anyone who doesn't look like their idea of a Cis Woman.
and I'm not laying that at the feet of the people saying "hey uhhhh trans men are men and don't belong in women's bathrooms" bc it is not their fault. it's the fault of a concerted effort to make it difficult and dangerous to be trans or substantively gender nonconforming in public.
but at the same time idk I guess it just worries me cause sometimes it feels like "you fools! you are worried about this group of trans people bc you think they're the Lurking Danger of Men In Bathrooms? WRONG! the Men Making You Feel Afraid In Bathrooms are actually THESE trans people!" when in fact neither of those groups using the fucking bathroom is a problem. just piss and mind your business. people need to go where they need to go.
anyway this country is a hot fucking trash fire that somehow accelerates its descent into open fascism more every day so it's all super good and normal. so don't take this too seriously tbh cause it's somewhere near #2535654476457899009765 on the list of priorities for Queer Discourse right now when the fucking human rights commission is actively rescinding protections from trans people. Please ignore my gibberish.

i actually love apologizing to people in a professional context when they inconvenience me. it can be such a power move. it's really context-dependent, though. the apology has to be sincere. it doesn't work if i'm actually just 100% fuming and have no sympathy for whatever their situation is, but if i can easily say to myself, "this must really be inconveniencing them also," then i love to be like, "thank you so much for your patience! i'm so sorry this has been such an ordeal. i really appreciate your perseverance. let me know if i can do anything to help!" because i do fully mean all those things at the same time that i'm like, so irritated because it's been like pulling teeth to get anything out of this person. and they know that they should have done the thing weeks ago, and then they feel bad that i'm apologizing, and it guilts them into doing whatever i need them to do. i am not interested in interrogating what this says about me as a person but again i must reiterate the apology is sincere. i'm sorry for both of us! i wish things were easier. i wish the load was lighter. take my hand. let's walk into that world together.
