What about this?

RELATED: JETER ANNOUNCES VIA FACEBOOK THAT '14 SEASON WILL BE HIS LAST'

I don't see how that is "related".

But then, I probably don't want to know.

It's probably not in place yet or is available now only when you sign up for a new account. I would try to sign up for a new account and see if you have any success. If not it will probably be some time until it's implemented.

But in actuality it's more than fifty names because it's described as 50 new gender terms as well as preferred pronoun choices, so it sounds like there will be more than fifty.

unless they are something like “Are You Kidding Me?!?” or “Unbelievable” or “Seriously Requiring Professional Help” I won’t have any part legitimizing this idiocy.

Yes. But there’s no reason to be defensive about it. After all, science in their great capacity as arbiter of truth and justice in the world has determined that we are facing a meteorological disaster with Global Warming as the cause for the eventual catastrophe that will eventually destroy our way of life. Do you feel guilty about that? Absolutely not. So science certainly has neither the answers nor the credibility for what we need to know and in many cases science is as clueless and bankrupt as the last word and authority on everything, anything.
