Every time I was asking myself "is this the best it gets when I'm doing so much right?", the answer was "no, this is a low point in a very slow and meandering trend upwards."

COMPLAINT FOR
DECLARATORY AND
INJUNCTIVE RELIEF
Civil Action No. ____________
INTRODUCTION
1. Since taking office, the Trump administration has waged an unrelenting campaign
to eliminate legal protections for transgender people and to deny them access to essential health
care. The Rule at issue in this case is the latest salvo in that campaign.
2. On August 13, 2026, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”)
published a final rule categorically prohibiting Federal Financial Participation (“FFP”) for
evidence-based treatments for gender dysphoria—including puberty-delaying medications,
hormone therapy, and surgical interventions1
—for all youth enrolled in Medicaid (under age 18)
and the Children’s Health Insurance Program (“CHIP”) (under age 19). 91 Fed. Reg. 52,406

My theory is that transphobia acts as an outlet for socially unacceptable grievances and traumas. For example, a woman traumatized by men can't safely express their overwhelming anger and fear of men, so they redirect it at trans women

Coming out as trans convinced me that both things are true because Republicans are stupid and cannot see basic connections between things. They can like every trans person they know, think trans people should be wiped out, and not understand how the trans people they know would be impacted by this.
a post says "Your average Republican is pro-IVF, skeptical of six week heartbeat bills, against deporting productive, law-abiding immigrants, and for gay marriage."

the post quoting it says "your average republican thinks theres kitty litter boxes in classrooms and immigrants are eating your pets. your average republican cares more about a Black actress playing the little mermaid."

I wish I could do more to comfort and buoy trans people who are struggling with thoughts of ending it. For myself, I lived with those thoughts daily during my teens and 20s. I couldn't imagine genuinely wanting to live during that time. I got better, and I'm still not sure how.

“Obama was opposed to gay marriage, give it time, don’t seek perfection on trans issues from Dems.” Yeah, but gay marriage was a new right LGBT people were seeking. Sports, bathrooms, and IDs are something trans people have had for decades. Going BACKWARDS Is the opposite of the Obama comparison.

The last group who commonly use Testosterone supplementation are transsexual women who have had their testes surgically removed, because castrate T levels are often below the healthy female range. The doses tend to be lower than even menopausal cis women's.

On the SCOTUS thing from a legal pov: 1. Courts have to answer what's put before them. They shouldn't go off-piste even in the pursuit of a good cause. That's one of the big rules because different judges have different opinions of a 'good' cause and letting them go wild is a bad idea. BUT
