    The Trump administration this week quietly released an update to a major survey on civil rights in schools that removed all data related to nonbinary students or bullying based on gender identity. The numbers come from the Education Department's Civil Rights Data Collection, a survey of nearly every public school in the nation. The release this week covers the 2023-2024, when the survey included "nonbinary" as a gender category alongside male...

  3. [Alleged] #Christian Employers Can Now Discriminate Against #TransPeople

    A settlement with the Christian Employers Alliance blocks the EEOC from ever investigating the group’s members for gender identity discrimination.

    Bryce Covert
    September 1 2026

    Excerpt: "The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the federal agency tasked with protecting workers from illegal discrimination, inked an unprecedented settlement with a conservative Christian employer association that could have long-term, wide-ranging consequences.

    "The lawsuit that led to the settlement was in reaction to #EEOC guidance issued under the Biden administration and after a 2020 Supreme Court ruling that Title VII protects against gender identity discrimination.
    In the settlement, reached on August 18, the EEOC pledged to not pursue any claims of gender identity-based discrimination against the #ChristianEmployersAlliance — and made the pledge in perpetuity.

    "The EEOC provides free investigation into complaints of discrimination and, in some cases, will bring lawsuits on behalf of employees at no cost to the plaintiffs.

    "Now, however, anyone who works for a company with membership in the Christian Employers Alliance who believes they suffered gender identity-based discrimination won’t be able to avail themselves of the EEOC’s process.

    "The settlement also contains an unusual provision: It applies not just to the more than 20,000 employers that are already members in the Christian Employers Alliance, but also to any future members, so long as they are members at the time that any claimed discrimination occurred.

    "That means that any employer that decides to sign up for Christian Employers Alliance membership will get the benefit of blanket protection from the EEOC against all claims of #GenderIdentity discrimination, such as harassing someone for being #nonbinary or firing them for coming out as #trans .

    " 'I am not aware of any settlement that just creates in perpetuity a freedom from investigation, 'said Karla Gilbride, a former EEOC general counsel under President Joe Biden who is now at the American Civil Liberties Union. 'I’ve never seen an organization get a settlement that allows protection to future members in this way.'

    "The settlement will stay in place even if #AndreaLucas, the current Republican chair of the EEOC, is replaced with a Democratic chair under a future Democratic president. (The Christian Employers Alliance declined to comment, and the EEOC did not respond to an inquiry.)"

  4. CW: CW: Plurality, gender identity, IKEA, may contain sarcasm

    I love it when people look at my enby existence, all genderfluid and gloriously inconvenient, and ask:

    “Can’t you just decide what you are and then be that?”

    Oh, sweetheart. I would love to see you try to apply that logic to my plurality.

    At least two of us are male. Another is, technically, a piece of furniture with their own life.

    Yes, I currently share my headspace with a roughly twenty-year-old IKEA Expedit, which is admittedly not a sentence I expected to say about my life. They’re dry, witty, surprisingly opinionated, and honestly? I can only recommend them. IKEA really doesn't make them like they used to. No kidding.

    So if you genuinely believe I chose all of this, I do sometimes wonder what on earth you would choose if you were actually given the opportunity.

    And frankly, I’m a little afraid to find out. 😌

    (...and please do not misunderstand me: I like myself. I wouldn't have it any other way. Oh well...)

    TITLE: White House Bans Use of Medicaid for Youth Gender Identity Healthcare

    URL: socialpsychology.org/client/re

    Source: United Press International - Health News

    On Tuesday, the Trump administration finalized rule changes that ban the use of Medicaid and Children's Health Insurance Program funds for gender identity healthcare for children. The new rule—the administration's latest move to bar access to such healthcare—will go into effect on October 13. President Trump lauded the changes in a post on social media, calling gender-affirming healthcare measures "barbaric."

  6. Lucas-Rodd felt 'trans joy' wearing a binder but are they safe to exercise in?
    By Kate O'Halloran

    Binders are popular among trans and gender diverse people, but research is yet to show if they're safe to exercise in. The University of Western Australia has led the largest study so far in the search for answers, and the preliminary results are promising.

    Remember how Speaker #MikeJohnson talked about how he and his son use #CovenantEyes mutual #surveillance to check whether each other have been viewing porn? (Remember how Josh Duggar used the same software?)

    The SCREEN Act is an attempt by #MikeLee to impose a similar degree of religious #voyeurism and #censorship throughout the #USA and everywhere using #US based Internet services. It would require every site that allows any form of user-generated content to collect ID from every user, and would criminalize any publication of facts (as opposed to Mike Lee's narrow-minded counterfactual dogma) about #sex, #gender, #sexuality, or #genderIdentity. It would also specifically ID verification to accessing the web from any known #VPN egress point.

  12. In this powerful moment from Episode 13, Rev. Rachel Mann reflects on knowing she was trans from a very young age, growing up in a time when the words—and the understanding—to express those feelings simply didn't exist.

    It's an honest conversation about identity, memory, and what it means to find the language that helps us belong.

  15. Fear, dominance, and coercion are faster and cheaper to use than rationality, self-regulation, and cooperation as motivators.

    So they can't just say that across the entire political spectrum, US national identity is still defined by a cult of #WhiteSupremacy #Capitalism #Patriarchy #Christofascism and an absolute obsession with a Social Darwinistic #ClassHierarchy.

  19. Trump Smashes Democrats’ “Transgender for Everybody” Insanity

    Since he returned to the White House, US President Donald Trump made it clear that common sense and clarity will return to American life starting from the top. In his latest move, Trump formally ended the “Transgender for Everybody” insanity of the Democrats and this means dismantling the subversive woke policies that harmed children, women and families. The latest executive move is also about restoring decency in America as we know it.

    To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the White House announcement. Some parts in boldface…

    Two years ago today, the Biden Administration desecrated Easter Sunday with a “transgender” message that elevated radical leftist ideology over faith, family, and biological truth. This Easter season, the Trump Administration is celebrating a decisive victory: the swift and unrelenting dismantling of subversive, woke policies that endangered children, eroded women’s rights, assaulted common sense, and dragged America toward moral and cultural decline.

    Under President Trump, the era of government-sanctioned delusion is over:

    President Trump declared it the official policy of the U.S. Government that there are only two immutable sexes: male and female.

    President Trump banned federal funding, sponsorship, or promotion of the chemical and surgical mutilation of minors — protecting children from irreversible harm and directing agencies to defund institutions engaged in these practices.

    As a result, more than three dozen health systems across the country — including Kaiser Permanente, Children’s Hospital Los Angeles, Children’s Minnesota, Denver Health, Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago, Stanford Medicine, NYU Langone, and many others — announced they are stopping or suspending child mutilation programs.

    The Trump Administration ended the un-American indoctrination of schoolchildren by terminating federal support for “gender ideology” and “equity” curriculaenforcing parental rights and putting states on notice to remove such content or lose funding.

    President Trump ended the unfair, demeaning practice of forcing women to compete against biological men in sports — which resulted in both the NCAA and the International Olympic Committee, as well as multiple state high school athletics associations, to realign with biological reality.

    The Department of War reinstated standards requiring service members to serve according to their biological sex, banned transgender individuals from military service where it conflicts with readiness and cohesion, and prohibited taxpayer funds for sex change procedures — restoring the military’s focus on excellence, not ideology.

    The Department of Health and Human Services conducted a comprehensive review of so-called “gender-affirming care” and confirmed the lack of medical or scientific evidence supporting its irreversible effects on minors.

    The Trump Administration — including across the Department of War and the Department of Veterans Affairs — ceased all funding for sex change surgeries and related procedures.

    President Trump eliminated radical gender ideology from U.S. service academies and training programs.

    President Trump directed enforcement to protect single-sex spaces designed for women and girls — including bathrooms, locker rooms, and shelters — based on biological sex.

    The Trump Administration axed billions of dollars in grants that had been used by states to perpetuate radical gender ideology and related propaganda.

    The Trump Administration ended the practice of allowing gender self-identification on federal documents — including passports — restoring biological sex as the sole basis for official records.

    Let me end this piece by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this development? Do you think President Trump and his administration executed enough reforms to restore decency and common sense in America? Are there many members of your family who allowed themselves to be consumed and even controlled by the LGBTQ mobs? Was there a significant increase of members of your local community who came out identifying themselves as transgender or non-binary individuals? Are the transgendered people in your local community openly supporting Palestinian terrorists and the Islamic terrorist regime of Iran?

  20. [Petition] Black & #Transgender Lives Lost to Medical Neglect: Demand Justice in MA Hospitals!

    The Issue

    "My name is And Steiner. I am a Queer, gender-diverse patient that has been hospitalized in Massachusetts' (MA) Department of Mental Health (#DMH) hospitals for four years because of severe suicidality with suicide attempts.

    "During that time, I have endured three attempts by DMH to suddenly discharge me from treatment without appropriate support, a practice known as '#PatientDumping'. This usually occurs when insurance has denied coverage or a patient has become a legal liability and often proves deadly, as you will see in this petition.

    "While under DMH’s care, I have learned of at least two cases of serious medical neglect, and one suspected, which resulted in patient deaths. #HaywoodEarl was a Black man who died 'a painful and untimely death' from medical neglect at #LemuelShattuck Hospital, according to an investigation by #DisabilityLawCenter. Disability Law Center also investigated the death of #CaSonyaKing (pictured), a Black woman who they concluded 'died needlessly' from being 'patient dumped" from a #PsychiatricHospital. It is suspected that #JeanBusch, a transgender patient at Lemuel Shattuck, died similarly. All minorities. All died needlessly.

    "When I learned of their deaths I was affected deeply. I reported Jean's death to DMH Authority, Attorney General Campbell and Governor Maura Healey in Jan 2023.

    "Despite being under no criminal investigation, as punishment for reporting Jean's death, I was illegally and forcibly transferred to a dangerous forensic ward with no due process. There I experience 15 months of relentless physical #assaults, as well as verbal and sexual #harassment, often directly related to my sexual orientation and #GenderIdentity."

  22. I realized I left out one of the most important figures—Disney's Mulan, the only Disney princess I truly love and care for.

    Mulan is one of the few Disney princess movies that I genuinely love and enjoy rewatching. Before cracking my egg, I couldn't quite explain why I was so drawn to this movie. But now, it's obviously clear why. Mulan's story of bravery, self-discovery, and challenging gender norms resonates deeply with me.

    Watching Mulan take her father's place in the army, disguising herself as a man to protect her family, and ultimately finding her true strength and identity, struck a chord within me. Her journey mirrors the struggles and triumphs many of us face in our quest for self-acceptance and understanding.

    Mulan isn't just a princess; she's a warrior who embodies the courage to be true to oneself, and for that, she will always have a special place in my heart.🌸💖

  23. ✨ Cracking My Egg with Anime: A Journey of Gender Identity Discovery ✨

    In a moment of reflection, I found myself thinking about the animated characters that played pivotal roles in my journey towards discovering my true gender identity. While many characters have influenced me, one stands out the most: Mahiro Oyama from the anime Onimai.

    In a nutshell, Onimai follows the story of a shut-in pervert boy who suddenly finds himself transformed into a middle-school girl due to a drug created by his (now her) genius younger sister. As Mahiro adapts to her new body, friends, and lifestyle, she truly begins to embrace her girlhood. Without giving away any spoilers, there comes a crucial point where Mahiro must decide whether to continue taking the drug, solidifying her new life as a girl but making it harder to revert back, or stop the drug and return to being a boy, losing her new friends in the process. It was at this moment I thought, "I wish I had that drug..." and BOOM! My quest for my true gender identity began.

    But Mahiro isn't the only character who has influenced me. Ranma from Ranma 1/2 also played a significant role. Ranma is a teenage boy cursed to turn into a girl when splashed with cold water and revert back with hot water. I always dreamed of having that curse, but never changing back to a boy. Back then, I didn't know what transgender meant; I just assumed everyone had similar thoughts and moved on. In the same anime, there's Ukyo, a girl raised as a boy until her teenage years when she could no longer hide her feminine attributes and embraced her true identity. I found her story compelling, not only because of her appearance but also her backstory of being forced to appear and behave as a boy.

    Lastly, there's Megumo from the manga Love Me for Who I Am. Megumo is a lonely student assigned male at birth but enjoys wearing girl clothes. They are invited to work at a cross-dresser themed cafe by a classmate, where they find a safe space among many LGBTQ+ characters who understand them. Reading this manga was during the time I identified as non-binary. Learning about the diversity of gender identities and expressions in this manga helped me realize my true identity as a woman.

    I hope everyone finds this not only entertaining but also a reflection on how our early fantasies and preferences can shape our personal journeys. For me, it's been a story over 40 years in the making. 🌟💖

    I am a nebula painted among stars. I am Beethoven’s Symphony Number 7 in A Major, Opus 92: II Allegretto. I am the many-colored fire that lives within the wood becoming coal beneath a bonfire in the night. I am a tree discovering itself to be a tree, rooted but also interconnected. I am the horn of Helm Hammerhand sounding in the deep. I am the sweet heavy scent of summer air in a forest so dense the sun can’t be seen. I am a lost thing, a found thing, a rediscovered thing, an old thing. I am an eternity and I have no idea how long I’ve been here.
