@cygnoir I just updated mine here on mb. I used to scoff and prod at this, as if it were a game token (🤬🤯🤢🤮very em-bare-assing). It is the most basic and simple respect. What’s your name? Got it.

[ edit: not just the names, of course, but the pronouns as well, you see, because pronouns are semantically linked to their referents in ways that inform, often in subtle but reliable ways, our thinking on what respect means and how to express it and...why am I explaining this?]
