Gen Z activist stories are one of the few things that still give me hope.
- It's hugely encouraging to see this activity happening at an Ivy League school. I hope this helps catalyze young people from wealthy families to start working towards the common good.
What are those garbage voting hours.
What is a dead name?
- It's usually the birth name of a transgender person who has transitioned to a new name of their choosing. So like if Dave decided they want to be Lindsey, calling Lindsey "Dave" would be dead naming them
  
  Got it, interesting to call them 'dead' names.
- A "dead name" or "deadname" is the term for the name given at birth to a person who has turned out to be transgender and changed their name as part of their transition. Knowing that a person has a preferred name and intentionally using their dead name is a fairly hostile act.
- Its the name you will have on your tombstone, not whatever name you call yourself.
Nice
