ESPN Story About Transgender WNBA Player Uses An Impressive Number Of Pronouns

I know it's Saturday, and you probably don't want to dive into an ESPN story about an outgoing transgender WNBA player you've never heard of until now. 

I get it, trust me. There are literally 1 million other things I'd rather read about on the internet than a trailblazing nonbinary transgender WNBA player with enough pronouns to make your head spin. I think I'd rather read all of Project 25 before that, and I'm pretty sure it's over 900 pages.

You'll probably still get yelled at because you'll inevitably say something offensive by accident, but at least you tried. 

Now, seeing this, the author of this Pulitzer winner – Katie Barnes – had a decision to make. Pick one pronoun and stick with it from start to finish … or just jam them all in at various points. A giant, woke – but delicious – pronoun
