 In total revenue systems, IRS tax news, IRS five-year strategic plan now available in Spanish. Super exciting news. I've just got two letters for that. B to the freaking N, baby. BN. How you being? I'm movie being. Like hippies are always like just being, man. But why settle for like just being, man, when you could movie being? Yeah, that's what I'm talking about. Just kidding. My very limited Spanish skills are deteriorating rapidly, I must say. I tried to learn Spanish by watching Star Wars in Spanish. Luke, yo soy tu padre. No! Busca tu sentamiento. ¡Sofes que es verdad! No puede ser! But then like Disney went totally woke and I had to cancel my subscription. Which ended my Spanish training. Which is annoying because Disney does have the best subtitles and language options I've ever found. And I'm willing to put up with a lot for quality like that. But they just went too far. So whatever. Maybe I can learn Spanish by reading the IRS news now or something. But that doesn't sound fun. Nobody cares, just read the news. Okay, okay. I'm gonna read the news now. Here we go. But first a joke. A transgender dude named Dory decided not to change her name. But instead just listed her pronouns as hunky. Fuck Bernice! That's good. I haven't laughed that hard since I was a little girl. Thank you. And insisted for the sake of reducing gender confusion, mind you. That everyone call her, I mean, call hunky hunky Dory. Oh, you're not joking. That is, I mean, you have to call him her hunky Dory. But like, if you're just referring to him her, like with a pronoun. You have to use hunky, but can leave off the Dory part. Otherwise, you know, what would be the point of the pronoun, right? Mr. Robato is lying to us. Tell me something I don't know. Open mouth, kiss the horse once. Say what? Something you don't know. Like for example, I met hunky Dory the other day and hunky was happy. Did you hear I finally graduated? Yeah, and just a shade under a decade too, all right. Now, the plural form of hunky, in case you were wondering, is hunkies. A lot of people go to college for seven years. I know. They're called doctors. Not hunkies, mind you, but hunkies. It's totally different. Oh, that has to be you. Thing for bugs. But what if everyone in the group is not hunky? For the ultimate course. You. Me. Why? Like hunky Dory. Like, can you still call the full group hunkies? Try that. Y42 doesn't work. Answer, yes. As long as hunky Dory is in the group, the entire group should be referred to as hunkies, even if there's like ugly, unhunky people in the group. Oh, well, partly the curiosity, partly a sense of adventure. That's how it works. And everyone has to do it that way. To reduce confusion. Mostly, I think it's for the fame and the money. Everyone thinks you're deep. Win, win. IR 2022-198, November 10, 2022, Washington.

Service, provide quality and accessible services to enhance the taxpayer experience. Enforcement, enforce the tax law fairly and efficiently to increase voluntary compliance and narrow the tax gap. People, foster an inclusive, diverse, and well-equipped workforce and strengthen relationships with our external partners. Transformation, transform IRS operations to become more resilient, agile, and responsive to improve the taxpayer experience and narrow the tax gap. The IRS also has a languages webpage. There's a link to that here available in 20 languages to help taxpayers find basic tax information. Some of the multilingual resources include the taxpayer bill of rights. There's a link to that here, e-file, link to that here, resources, and many tax forms, instructions, and publications. There's links to that here, and there's links to all the stuff I said there was links to, and there'll be a link to this in the description.
