Reddit post Passport Adjudicator here. The gender changes have thrown our offices in chaos. I work in a passport office and the gender changes stemming from Trump's executive orders have been chaos. The State Department is struggling to put together a coherent policy and things are changing literally by the hour in some cases. Basically the situation right now is this: Renewals asking for a gender change are now suspended. We're forced into just letting the applications pile up because we're not sure whether to deny them outright or approve the applications but issue the passports without the requested gender change Applications with an "X" gender marker are no longer accepted If you are a trans first time applicant and have been able to get an amended birth certificate in your state, we'll have no way of knowing the amended BC doesn't match your assigned sex as birth. So if you have your documents in your current name and gender identity, I would apply ASAP For those that previously requested a gender change and hold a valid book and are looking to renew.... it's unclear how that's going to work. The White House is saying we need to determine and verify which gender you were assigned at birth. In theory this is possible but it will slow down processing. We hope to get more clarification on this in the coming weeks. There has been an *enormous* chilling effect and dip in morale this week. There are other contributing factors to that (telework is ending across the entire government, for example) but I can safely say the majority of us are upset with these changes. I might be able to answer some questions if you have them....but be aware everything I tell you comes with a giant asterisk. We don't even know what things will look like next week.
the fact that Oklahoma won't let me change my birth certificate is now an actual liability, this sucks!

This guy is giving my party the stink eye. We could just keep walking. Or we could go guns blazing.
A fight on the streets of Primus, the city you start in when you arrive on Titan. I guess my party chose violence.
The surface of Titan has a few encounters as well, some of whom might let you go on by. Others who will want to make Titan your grave.
Mines of Titan (1989) by Westwood Associates and published by Infocom was the updated version of their Mars Saga for the C64 published by EA in 1988. A missing city on Saturn's moon sets the stage for your quest to find the truth, and a nice reward, behind its disappearance! (a colony thread)
