Brilliant piece - many thanks! I've said it before, but feel compelled to reiterate that you have a gifted eye for photography. My 'take' on all these silly bastards in modern society is that we've gotten so far removed from the nitty gritty of life, that most folks get wrapped up in goofy, pointless mental masturbation while trying to forget that we're all born to survive, procreate, then die - anything else is entirely up to ourselves. Somebody worrying about catching, gutting, skinning, and cooking their first meal in three days probably isn't too hung up on preferred pronouns. - Just saw 12 geese flying south. Welp, I gotta get back to my pan fried steak, gallon of black coffee, and pack of unfiltereds. God Bless You, Brother Linh, fight the good fight, and FTW! - Sam.

I still need someone to tell me why I need someone's pronouns, when I would only use them to talk about that person to someone else, presumably when they are not there to hear it, and can thus not possibly be offended.

PS: Linh--you nailed it on the jab. It is probably what caused her to drop my grandson less than a week later, at 24 weeks. It is truly a miracle of modern medical technology that he survived to be a normal, healthy kid.
