I know a they who refers to themselves as “a they”. It’s partly for the memes but it does happen. Honestly it gets the point across better because instead of being a generic title it’s a term specifically for non-binary people and that’s nice.

should note it's probably going to be "they/them", not just "they". Saying "i was talking to they yesterday" will likely cause people to stub their tongue.
