    Our government is hard at work on this.

    Check out this pending bill up for vote during the next session: https://m.flsenate.gov/session/bill/2024/599/billtext/filed/pdf https://m.flsenate.gov/session/bill/2024/599/billtext/filed/pdf

    Essentially it makes it illegal to be transgender and have a job in government or government adjacent.

    Here is an excert: It is the policy of the state that a person’s sex is an immutable biological trait and that it is false to ascribe to a person a pronoun that does not correspond to such person’s sex. This section does not apply to individuals born with a genetically or biochemically verifiable disorder of sex development, including, but not limited to, XX disorder of sex development; XY disorder of sex development; sex chromosome disorder of sex development; XX or XY sex reversal; and ovotesticular disorder.

    An employee or a contractor may not be required, as a condition of employment, to refer to another person using that person’s preferred personal title or pronouns if such personal title or pronouns do not correspond to that person’s sex.
    An employee or a contractor may not provide to an employer his or her preferred personal title or pronouns if such preferred personal title or pronouns do not correspond to his or her sex.
    An employee or a contractor may not be asked by an employer to provide his or her preferred personal title or pronouns or be penalized or subjected to adverse personnel action for not providing his or her preferred personal title or pronouns.

    It continues on about not being able to fire people for thinking being gay is a sin and so on, but I don’t want this to be a novel.

    It’s things like this that prevent me from using Linux more.

    I force myself to use it for projects where it’s an option because I feel I need to learn it better but I kind of dread it every time.

    Inevitably I’m stuck frustrated reading conflicting guides from years ago and wondering just how badly I’m going to fuck things up this time.

    Sometimes it all feels so esoteric.
