2025 has been an incredibly hard year for trans people. And yet... the political project to erase us is failing. In spite of them having so many levers of power, many of us have continued to thrive, and new pathways open up every day to get around the attacks.

The Case For Hope: Transgender Rights Going Into 2026
This last year has been one of the hardest years for transgender people in memory. Somehow, though, I'm feeling hope going into 2026.

Last night, we were one of the first outlets to report the ADULT ban on gender affirming care for Medicaid recipients who depend on it to access it.
This morning, that bill passed 215-214-1.
It now goes to the senate.
It's a bleak day for transgender Americans.

Twitter people are talking about the CNN poll showing that people "approve" of Trump's handling of gender identity.
Turns out though when you look at the crosstabs, Democrats and Independents do not approve of Trump's handling of trans issues.
But Republicans absolutely love it.

I know how much Irish people hate when people in the US, UK, or Canada talk about how they are 12% Irish, or whatever.
But everybody having some Irish heritage means one thing: Irish people have a reputation as the most prolific shaggers in history.
Happy St. Patrick’s Day, you rides. 😘

1. In one of the most extreme anti-trans bills of 2025, a bill in Arkansas would make "contributing to social transitioning" of trans youth against the law.
It asserts extraterritorial jurisdiction, applying to social media and more.

If you are a cis person *please* take 2 minutes to do this. Trans people with non-updated gender markers, historical gender marker changes, and X markers are terrified to travel right now; rolling back this policy would mean a lot.
Public comment is now open for passport gender marker changes.
You can go here to go to each of the three proposed passport rules, and submit comment.
My suggestion: be unique, argue for trans-inclusive policies, against the constitutionality of the changes, etc.

If america starts as a nation built on inequality & after centuries of civil rights movements & legal milestones being put in place to protect its more vulnerable communities, it goes back to doubling down on genocide, slave labor, & hierarchies within 300 years… maybe it’s inherent to the nation.

i feel like if people park in the middle of the driving section of a parking lot that is clearly labeled NO PARKING it should be legal to hit them, or at least key their car.
