Indeed. I have my own view on the pronoun, names pronunciation and 'identifying as' madness, which I won't share here. But it can be best summarised as; each to their own, but don't force idiocy onto others.

That way you don't give a fuck about anyone elses views and they don't give a fuck about yours.

I’ve got pronouns in my email sig, but it’s mainly cos I’ve got a weird first name and people don’t know if I’m a man or a woman, especially if English isn’t their first language. I also thought it was a bit like the pride flag at VP; doesn’t cost owt, isn’t hurting, might help somebody, but since i put it there I wonder if it’s not highlighting differences more than supporting anyone.
I’ve got a middle ranking job, and I’ve been thinking about fucking it off and going to train as a tree surgeon. It’d probably cut my salary in half, but I’m just not sure if I want to keep doing this. The money isn’t good enough to make being a punch bag with no control worth it, and the only way to do this job properly is to do nothing else with my life. Definitely doesn’t feel like I can do this for another 30 years.

Also 40ish isn't too old to learn something new. There's another couple of decades of work in you at least, half your working life more or less.

There's another couple of decades of work in you at least, half your working life more or less. and if its shit you can still go back to the drawing board
