A proposed policy at the University of Toledo in Ohio states that members of the university community "must" call others by their "chosen first name."
The policy, titled "Inclusive Gender Practices," was proposed by the university's vice president for diversity, equity, and inclusion and states that all students, faculty, and staff "must" call others by their "chosen first name" in "all communications."
"An individual’s Chosen First Name must be used by all UToledo students, staff, and faculty in all communications," the proposed policy states. "The University of Toledo recognizes the importance of students, faculty, and staff being able to use names other than their legal names to identify themselves for a variety of reasons."................

Good one...I don't think that this is half as insane as forcing you to refer to them as the pronoun they "identify" with. There's at least 78 of them
Gender Neutral Pronouns: What They Are & How to Use Them
Utter insanity!
BTW...from now on you shall refer to me as "Blade Runner".

There's some debate over whether the Deckard character was human or Replicant...I think he might have been since he did seem to connect with the Sean Young character "Rachel."
I didn't see the more recent "Blade Runner 2049", so I don't know if it was revealed in the sequel.
Best line: "My mother? Let me tell you about my mother..."

Yeah, he almost seemed to have some human emotions, wanting to be human and finding humanity only in death.

My girlfriend was the spitting image of Sean Young.
We stepped of the theater around 12:30 am and it was pouring rain...huge electronic billboards, umbrellas everywhere.
Zero transition from the screen to the street.
Blew our minds...

I can imagine, especially since your GF looked like Rachel.

Perhaps a tad better bone structure...and blue eyes.
Her face opened some doors...for both of us.
Saw her on Youtube a couple of years back. She aged better than Sean.
Edit: it's the hair style that makes Rachel who she is imo
