I just don’t worry about this stuff and I’m much happier. No one’s email signature is hurting me. I’m happy to use the pronouns someone requests. It only takes 20 seconds to listen to a land acknowledgment even if you think it’s dumb.
I think religion is dumb but I don’t get my panties in a twist if someone says grace before a meal or tells me to have a blessed day.

She's just trying to protect herself from DEI cuts

Maybe this is working for them, but I somehow doubt it.


For a therapist that's good.
They'll reflect yourself back to you and not insert their own perspective

That's incredibly navel-gazing. I am multinational/multiracial/multicultural. I've lived on different continents and I know identity signifiers don't mean crap when you change locales and cultures.

Lmao. If anyone were to use identifiers it would be me: showing that I am multiracial, bisexual, a woman, a trauma survivor. My last job required (“suggested”) gender pronouns, which I ignored. It’s pure foolishness. We should ALL treat each other well and with consideration.
