I took an opening and asked a coworker at my new job whether or not my boss had actually told the team I prefer they/them pronouns. He had, they just weren't using them. So I sent a friendly email to remind them and my boss apologized for not modeling it for them and the coworker I was most worried about maybe being queerphobic told me she wants to get it right but needs me to explain how pronouns work. I'm so glad I spoke up, and I think the timing was just right. The people know me and like me and were receptive. Thanks for encouraging me to really be myself this week. - Aquarius

We moved what we wanted to Portland, Maine which I picked up August/ September- so it’s been a blur
