Passing along a metaphor that we've been using lately when telling offline friends that we're plural:

"It might help to think of us as being like employees at a company. Up until recently, you've known us as the company we work at (our legal or shared name). The company isn't a person on its own, though. You can't talk to Microsoft or Adobe- there's just a bunch of guys manning the phone lines. We're the guys manning the phone lines."

How stealth do you want to be? (If you are already at your desired level of stealthness, feel free to pick the one you are at already)

- 100% stealth to everyone

- Stealth to everyone except romantic/sexual partners and very close friends

- Stealth to strangers, coworkers etc. but open to people within certain communities and friends

- Stealth as default, but able to choose when to give out that information depending on the person and situation

- Open as default, but able to choose to go stealth depending on the person or situation

- Openly trans as much as possible

- So openly trans that it's impossible for anyone to think otherwise

- I'm unsure what my desired stealthness will be

- Results

Critical questions for when someone makes a big cosmic prediction:

Has anyone made a prediction like this before?

Did similar predictions made in the past come true?

What actually happened?

How did people whose predictions fail behave afterward?

How did their believers behave?

Am I willing to admit this person is wrong if their prediction doesn't come true?
