Got my letter in the mail today, doesn’t seem that long ago that we had the last one…
Census date is 11th of August if you haven’t gotten the letter yet.
I note they’re definitely trying to spread the load this time by highlighting you can do it as soon as you get the letter rather than waiting for the actual date. Smarter move - albeit less amusing - than everyone doing it on the night, crashing the servers, and the ABS claiming it was a DDoS attack (I mean most of the country accessing your server does fit the definition, but they asked for it).
I get not wanting the target on your back, but if they see higher numbers of trans people, they’re more likely to stop fucking around on trans services.
I vote we all genderfuck the damned thing. If we can dick around for a jedi joke we can do it for our most vulnerable
I’m willing to put down trans or non-binary on my form. I’m half way there anyway as a non-conformist
The problem is now, they can’t tell trans and intersex folk apart with these questions, and non binary folk are completely invisible.
Their numbers are useless no matter what trans people answer
