Elon Musk will close the deal on Twitter by the end of this week. It will be interesting to see what changes are made.

I was going to try this but my impatient ass kept refreshing & I finally got through. I just submitted a purchase, so hopefully it goes through in time!
 
Have to get on a phone call with a support guy for work who left me a message and barely speaks understandable English.

Nonbinary is the worst one because they don’t pick one. I have a niece who claims to be non-binary (I think it’s just a power and/or attention play) and you’re supposed to determine what pronouns to use based on how she’s dressed. I’m not doing that.

Actual conversation I just had:
Me: so you're moving over here when the new CEO moves as well, right?
Theym: Yes, in January
Me: I hope you like it here, this building is nicer than your old one, at least
Theym: It's okay, but the bathroom situation is awful here (we only have a men's room and a women's room, this individual is non-binary and prefers unisex)
Me: Oh yeah, sorry about that. I don't believe it's feasible to add any more facilities to this building though
Theym: that would be worse, because now you're making the people who use a unisex bathroom into "others"
Me: Oh, so what would be your solution, make all of these unisex and anybody can use any bathroom?
Theym: Yes, that would be preferred, and each bathroom should be all stalls for privacy
Me: (in my head) we have privacy now!

Yeah, fuck that. If someone ever tells me I’m being offensive for not using their chosen pronouns, they’re going to get an earful of, “you’re offending ME by forcing me to lie.”

My position on the gender cornucopia is the same as my position on religion. Believe whatever the fuck you want, but leave me out of it. The minute you require me to interact with you in a specific way, you’re involving me in your shit.

Peak insanity at this point.

I get the idea to have a trans bathroom, to basically offer a solution to all genders in terms of being comfortable with a former man using a women’s room and such.

It sounds like from your story we need a mens, womens, trans and “non binary” restroom because by golly, they just aren’t any gender at all. Office buildings will be nothing but bathrooms at this pace.

I think the end game will be no group bathrooms at all. Just a series of unisex one-holers. Decent solution for new builds, but doesn’t do shit for everything already in existence.

Yep. Honestly, I got no problems with anybody who wants to use the men's crapper, but there are other people who WOULD have a problem with it. Just can't please everyone. This person was concerned that making extra bathrooms would hurt feelings somehow; I would LOVE to have a dedicated restroom for 50 year old straight white males. At my place, I'd be about the only one using it come January

I think the solution should be to cut a hole in the floor at everyone's work station
