surprising thing i learned this weekend is that spending much time around people with my deadname would be kinda hellish
Follow
cause like sure it is on some level reassuring that 100% of uses of that name referred to the friend who continues to have that name and that none of our mutual friends gave any sign of even momentarily considering it as potentially ambiguous.
but also 100% of uses made me double take a moment before i parsed that they were talking to him.
