the projector whirs to life, a blindingly white flash in the dark room quickly replaced by a narcolepsy-inducing Business Blue background
a 1990s era macintosh "tada" sound plays out of a tiny, treble-heavy speaker, somehow so loud that the entire room winces
slightly off-white text, letters each half the height of a full grown adult begin checkboard-dissolve transitioning onto the screen
"Welcome to my Gender Presentation!"
"gender" is no more a required field than asking for your race
there is no reason that a license to drive should care what your gender is;
there is no reason a passport should care what your gender is;
there is absolutely no reason your landlord or loyalty membership or other menial service needs to collect that information
do not let the false authority of an official-looking document normalize asking your gender

> Thank you for all of your tremendous help last Saturday. All together we were able to bike three thousand and forty five pounds of food and provide valuable support and relief to 77 neighbors all over North Seattle who are experiencing food insecurity. We also fully restocked 13 Little Free Pantries. This is a new record - great work everyone!
And this is just from *one* food bank. There are *five* in this group.
the trolley problem in modern america:
there is a GMC Yukon with a hood height of 44.5in carrying a single person eating fast food and trying to read a bouncing kitten sticker in a group text
they are about to collide with a cyclist just trying to get to the grocery store
you can pull funding for highway transportation and they will march into the next city council meeting demanding to know why communists have taken over
