I'VE GOT MY PASSPORT BOOK!
THIS IS A HUGE FUCKING RELIEF!
For those not aware, I've been without valid photo ID for ages, let alone ID with my correct name and gender marker.
When I got my name and gender marker change order done a few months back, just before I could get in the state office to get a new ID (and I was having issues with them actually sending me a non-temporary one regardless...) they decided they were going to start ignoring court orders and putting anyone who tried to get their ID updated on a list.
Thankfully that's only at the state level and the only thing that matters there is drivers license. I was born in a state that is very supportive of updating my birth certificate, and the federal government still accepts the forms just fine.
So the passport isn't just me able to leave the country reasonably, it's also a valid photo ID with my correct name and gender which I haven't had in ages (and has been the thing holding me back from updating things like bank accounts).

Celui qui ouvre une porte d'école, ferme une prison.
Cette citation est apparue au XXIe siècle. Elle est apocryphe.
Qui est le celui? Victor Hugo ne se serait jamais exprimé ainsi. Les apocryphes comportent toujours des faiblesses car ils viennent de petites personnes, comme les menteurs.

Hell, I'm pro AI and still think this is cursed... Yes I want AIs trained, but why the hell would you work with sensitive private data and think it should have access to that?!
The other day I messaged a friend's niece to tell them how to disable a setting on their laptop that is potentially leaking their work to feed AI. They work in educational psychology, so I didn't want patient/student data getting fed into some black box. All well and good so far.What really surprised me however, was her reaction.
"Don't I want AI to be trained?"
Holy fuck do we have an educational failing in lay people's understanding of what LLMs mean and their implications.
