Are you American? Do you need to renew your passport? Timing is the key to avoid something grotesque. https://apnews.com/article/passport-trump-us-250th-birthday-df2f0f96e4fbcee89ae904a65af398f0

    Getting responses to this that seem to believe I'm a Yank. Always happy that I'm not.

  • @MarkAsser@beige.party Well, it is fitting that the world's worst rogue state has a mug shot of its felon leader on coins, bank notes, national parks... and passports.

    @MarkAsser@beige.party @lisamelton@mastodon.social Note that the ‘special edition’ is only going to be issued in DC, and only for a limited time. Still gross as fuck, but it’s not a wholesale changing of the passport pages.

    @MarkAsser@beige.party I have to renew mine soon. I hope they’ll at least offer the option of a pedophile-free edition.

    @MarkAsser@beige.party If you apply in person in Washington DC in a particular time frame, you’ll get a passport with Trump’s face on it. If you apply for a passport or passport renewal anywhere in the US at any time from last November to an indefinite point in the future, and you’re a trans person who has legally changed gender markers on all your other documents, you will get a passport showing only your assigned sex at birth, and thus will be at risk of greater violence and mistreatment whenever you need to use your passport. That is pretty grotesque, too.

    @MarkAsser@beige.party He who cannot be embarrassed has already outsourced embarrassment to any US citizen travelling abroad, so this seems a bit redundant.
