This is a bit bordering against the rules on schadenfreude, so I hope the comments here can focus on trans, nonbinary, intersex etc. passport changes being allowed instead of the Trump administration being blocked.
What do we do when Marco Rubio and at least every employee at a passport office in a red state continue to not process them?
- Bitch on the Internet, most likely.
  
  Sad but true.
- There are two passport renewal processing offices, once you mail your forms out. Regular renewal is in Texas, but if you do expedited (I think like $60 more or something like that) it goes to Philadelphia to be processed.
  I’m not saying that if you’re trans you will never have success with the regular renewal, but I paid for express before Trump was sworn in just to be safe and it worked out for me.
  
  I actually have to show up in person with a form for mine, because I lost my last one.
We seem to be getting a lot of these. Be nice if they made much difference :(
