The Trump administration is proposing sweeping changes to the rules governing the 2030 US Census, including a requirement that could make questions about biological sex mandatory for respondents, a change critics say could effectively force transgender people to disclose their trans status to the federal government.

    Synthesis is not abiological. On the contrary, synthesis implies that the formation of a substance was intended by a biological organism.

      Sure but it wasn’t your biology.

      Personally I don’t think they’d be able to tell the difference between someone not responding and a response being lost in the mail. The USPS is notoriously unreliable and should be privatized, donchaknow.

        They send people to your address if they don’t get a response, since its based off addresses and not people.

        I had multiple people show up multiple times the last time we had a census cuz I didn’t want to deal with it. It doesn’t just go away.
