Naming a school after someone is not about preserving history, which is permanent and unchangeable, it is a mark of honour.
Of the billions of people who have lived in the world, a tiny tiny fraction have things named after them. It is, when yiu really think of it, a gigantic honour.
But honour is always subjective and current, so if it no longer seems the person is honourable based on newly discovered or understood history then the proper thing to do is remove the honour.
That becomes part of the history which must be preserved and told.
Racist, violent, colonialists do not deserve to be honoured.

@cookiesinheaven Seriously thinking of legally changing my name back to my “maiden”  name. I don’t see the men in my life fighting for me or any woman and why the fuck did I change my name anyways?

CLC: What You Need to Know About the #SAVEAct
... When registering to vote, Americans are already required to verify their eligibility. The SAVE Act imposes unnecessary barriers to the registration process, requiring voters to provide documentation that many don’t have.

How to Change Your Personal Google Account Address
This has been bugging me quite a long time and changing the email address for your Google Account is quite famous for being impossible or very hard. Google themselves document the change process here:
https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/19870
And there are many reasons why this is not possible, as it was for me. But, Google also highlights two alternatives that can be quite helpful:
a) Add an alternative mail. This means you can now log in using this mail, but your will still receive mail on your old address, can access it, etc. Your Google Account "Name" that will be displayed when you open it remains the same!
b) Switch to a non-Gmail address. This will delete your mail account completely and unrevocably and you will need to add a non-Gmail address, like in option (a), as a replacement. Afterwards your Google Account Name is actually your new mail!
The second option is the one I went with. It's a bit hidden under "Get help changing your email address", where Google says:
> To switch from a Gmail address to a non-Gmail address, you need to delete your Gmail address. Learn more about deleting your Gmail address.

Wrote about my name and gender change in the USA, and why I'm unable / unwilling to update it in Germany just yet.
When will it be my turn? Will the judge believe me? Will these strangers care or judge me, too? Will they say I filled the forms out wrong and deny my request?

I'VE GOT MY PASSPORT BOOK!
THIS IS A HUGE FUCKING RELIEF!
For those not aware, I've been without valid photo ID for ages, let alone ID with my correct name and gender marker.
When I got my name and gender marker change order done a few months back, just before I could get in the state office to get a new ID (and I was having issues with them actually sending me a non-temporary one regardless...) they decided they were going to start ignoring court orders and putting anyone who tried to get their ID updated on a list.
Thankfully that's only at the state level and the only thing that matters there is drivers license. I was born in a state that is very supportive of updating my birth certificate, and the federal government still accepts the forms just fine.
So the passport isn't just me able to leave the country reasonably, it's also a valid photo ID with my correct name and gender which I haven't had in ages (and has been the thing holding me back from updating things like bank accounts).

[Canada] Gender justice groups urge British Columbia government to repeal harmful name change ban
https://westcoastleaf.org/name-act
* repeal Bill 26: Name Amendment Act (No 2) 2024
* changes Name Act
* restricts access to legal name changes for many British Columbians
* not necessary to protect the public
* harms those most in need of legal name change:
transgender people
Indigenous people
survivors of gender-based violence
2/2 Lauritz Knudsen doesn't have any equity in India (at least compared to L&T which is very famous). So, if Schneider is anyway starting on a clean slate for a new name for L&T Electrical & Automation, why not go for a more 'Indian' sounding name or at least one that can be more readily/easily pronounced than 'Lauritz Knudsen' (K silent, I presume)?
PSA - "UK Deed Poll Office" is a non-governmental, private, for-profit company (based in the US!), scamming UK people (especially trans folks) into paying for unenrolled deed polls, and there are other UK-based companies doing this too!!!
This #law was used to keep #trans #people off the #ballot. Now it’s being used against a #cisgender #Republican.
He didn't disclose a #namechange in a #state with a #strange #law about just that.

Legal opinion is pretty clear: "in general, children of any age can make their own decision about the change of [...] name."
If anyone tells you otherwise, show them this: https://www.transactual.org.uk/names-cyp-legal
There's no rule about names for nonbinary people that you must follow.
Nonbinary people can change their entire name legally, go by a new nickname, keep their original name, and much more.
Do what makes you happy!
