Honestly as a mostly 'passing' trans girl, I'm fucking delighted when a cis person double-checks my pronouns regardless of their initial assumptions, it's great and shows that they care at least a little why the fuck would anyone not want that??
My ID says male but I have a girl name, a lot of people get confused and the best situations are the ones where they acknowledge it and make a quick joke about administration being a fuck after asking for my pronouns, not the ones where they say ma'am right off the bat (since that's often boring and can cause issues)

history is not a tale of great men and fantastic ideas, it is the mountain of work of many countless millions of people, countless billions of hours worked in poverty. A civilization is a pyramid laid brick by brick through time and work by the masses.

@maenad artificial enhancement of human capabilities and specifically the abuse thereof by corporate interests
really just anything with the words "corporate" and "abuse" in it probably fits here too, but there's too much of that to properly categorise
