Context: I am visiting a high school friend. Another friend who we both knew in high school has posted some interesting things recently. This friend has changed their name, but the friend I am visiting is not following them and is not aware of their transition.
How do I bring up this friend without dead naming them?
How dare you deadname Sarah, the lodge in New Atlantis will hear about this and you’ll be excommunicated from Constellation.
I’m sure this is a very funny joke I don’t get. Yes, I know, I’m sure I’m great at parties too.
In case it was unclear: obviously both names are fake.
Sarah Morgan is the name of a character from the game Starfield, a Science Fiction self-titled “Nasapunk” role-playing game by Bethesda softworks that just released in September.
Ah, yes, I’m aware of Starfield, just not that there’s someone named Sarah Morgan in it. I legitimately just picked a generic first and last name.
