I’m an active Shakespearean actor in my spare time. If I listed my pronouns on LinkedIn as Thou, Thee,Thy, Thine would that be ok or misconstrued and cause an uproar? I’m not looking to offend anyone, just express my side hustle.

The fact you’re celebrating a white man is offensive.

Only works if your job title is “Shakespearean thespian” and your profile pic is a 16th century–style painting with you wearing a neck ruff.

Clever among your fellow actors where there is already a basis of trust, but not really right for a public bio where you can be easily misunderstood

I think it’s going to go over better for you to not make a joke about gender identity etc. unless you’re someone with a non-traditional gender identity yourself. Punching down etc.

I agree that it would be offensive and skewed as making fun of pronouns or asking for you to be addressed as non-binary.

BUT it is funny. Maybe you can have a tab on your portfolio site in addition to your about me page that is all about your Shakespearian side hustle? Use @CD1’s idea and have a profile pic, bio, and title to all bring it together. Might read less as misinterpretation and more as a peek into your hobbies/personality.

There's certainly a better way.

My anxiety makes me good at my job. My incessant checking, and double checking, and analyzing has earned me praise, trust, and early promotions. Sometimes I wonder, if I were to take medication to give myself some relief, and to stop the panic attacks, would I be less productive? And then I wonder, do I value my own health so little? But I’m so validated by my performance...sad isn’t it? Hope I’m not alone.
