I vote we change it in English to be pronounced like in German. It always bugged me that it's the only multisyllabic letter name. Along the same lines, we should rename seven to sev.

I suppose that's possible, but the thing you say OP is not saying is literally a quote. So at best it's worded poorly.

Whose authority says it's not sufficient? If they say they are nonbinary, they are nonbinary.

You can't gatekeep being nonbinary. Not unless you're prepared to define it explicitly, which will exclude many people - and not everyone will agree with your definition either.

I just let go of my 16 year old cat this week. I resolved I would do it if he started hiding (cats do that when suffering) or once I was sure he would only get worse. He never did start hiding, but he stopped eating and got so weak that he had trouble getting himself up.

It was tempting to wait and have as much time as I could with him, but I also very much did not want him to die at a vet (though that was plan b if he took a bad turn). I scheduled at-home euthanasia, and it was very odd to have an exact clock on my best friend. I cried so much in the days before and after. But I do feel it was the right decision - he died peacefully with his family around him.

To me, love is simply wanting to be in the presence of another. And true love is to be willing to give even that up if it's in their best interest.

It looks cool, but I can't even sign up for it (infinite spinning loading icon). I did a search and it's been a problem for more than a year at this point, yikes.
