Bird is the word irritates me in ways I cannot describe

Not that hot a take if you look up the original lyrics though

Yeah, I'll confess, this may be very largely an American perspective. I am in one of the least religious metro areas of the US, and it's still 50%+ Christian. For anyone who has been near Christian conversion propaganda, there are a lot of red flags in that ad, but I also agree with some comments below that it doesn't seem like a great pitch even in absence of that context. I'd want to know more about what is being taught and why before I would be interested.

He's a cop, of course he knows how law enforcement will go through and find something incriminating

That's fair! Context is key. I was thinking if I saw this on the street, I'd ignore it for the reasons above.

Have you ever met a tenured college prof before? Lol

This is a neat idea but unfortunately the name and advertisement 100% read to me like this is Christian proselytizing. I wouldn't expect secular education to be remotely part of this from just this material, and I wouldn't even check out the website to confirm.

Even ranked choice voting couldn't save NYC from picking the most bonkers mayors you can imagine

Excellent points! There are definitely workarounds, but you have to look at what state options are available to you to make a plan that works for your situation. Some communities have trans advocates who can walk folks through that process for free, anyone looking to update their documents should see what resources are available.

Not for your birth certificate, no. That is fully in the hands of wherever you were born and can't change. Your driver's license/ID depends on your place of residence but you still would have to transfer a legal license from one state to another while moving, which can require several documents to prove you are who you say you are and live where you say you live. But that's really state specific!

I'd hesitate to call it a replacement but it is very fun! Top of the Stardew-likes imo

That sadly doesn't help trans people who were born in Alabama and already left, since that's where their birth certificate would still fall under. Or if they got their license in Alabama, they may have trouble transferring it to their current state if their documents don't match up.
