If you are like me and were feeling a lot of distress over this week's Supreme Court rulings restricting trans rights, this is worth a read.

A lot of the initial reaction made it seem like trans women and trans fem people (because this ruling only affects trans fem people, not trans masc) essentially had no rights under Title IX or the Equal Protections Clause. While the more extreme concerning opinion from Clarance Thomas was filled with animus towards trans women and pushed for restricting our rights to an extreme, the actual majority opinion was very narrow and doesn't touch claims outside sports as sports were already a special case under things like Title IX.

The ruling was bad especially if you are a trans youth in a red state, but it wasn't the apocalyptic catastrophe some analysts made it seem.

All is not lost. Heads up. Keep fighting.

Also yeah dating apps being useful or at all worth logging on to even as a cis person thing is basically unique to major cities. If you're trans and rural or in a smaller city good fucking luck.

Pope Leo is letting American bishops entirely ban trans healthcare for both minors and adults in all Catholic-owned hospitals and clinics, and stop coverage for trans healthcare through Catholic-affiliated health insurance plans!!

People are having surgeries, for which they were on waitlists for years, suddenly cancelled. Hormones no longer covered, their clinicians no longer able to prescribe them. Considering in some states Catholic-owned healthcare organizations make up to a third of the market, as it were, this is a HUGE issue.
