    Finally got my insurance company to update my name, and now I don’t have to out myself every time I talk to a medical provider on the phone, show up to an appointment, or pick up a prescription, etc.

    Not that I’m fooling anyone in person, but my voice seems to pass well enough on the phone and it can be awkward sometimes to explain I’m actually <deadname>.
