  16. A federal judge just froze Idaho's bathroom-prison law — the only one in the country that reached into private businesses, with penalties up to five years.
    It died on one question: how is an officer supposed to assess a stranger's sex on sight? The state floated forced DNA testing as the fix.
    The ruling covers every trans person in Idaho.

  21. Spanish farmer’s registry switch spotlights a very expensive paperwork loophole

    Almond plantation in Alhama de Granada, Andalusia, Spain — photo by Jebulon, CC0 1.0 via Wikimedia Commons.
    1. Dear Cherubs, Spain has served up one of those stories that sounds like a parody until the form is stamped. According to Antena 3, a farmer in Almería changed the sex marker on his registry to female after being denied a PAC subsidy three times, and the switch reportedly added enough points to finally get the aid over the line.

    The legal backdrop is not exactly mysterious. Spain’s 2023 trans law allows adults 16 and over to request a sex-marker rectification at the Civil Registry without medical or psychological reports, and once the change is registered, the person can access rights tied to the new marker, including positive-action measures for women going forward.

    THE PAPERWORK LOOPHOLE

    The awkward bit is that the policy aim itself is not silly. The European Commission says the CAP explicitly promotes women’s participation in farming, and its own data shows the gender gap is still real: 26% of farmers under 40 are women, while just 3% of farm holders under 40 are women.

    In other words, the subsidy was built to correct a historic imbalance, not to become a speed-run challenge for anyone with a sharp eye for administrative fine print. Spain’s Agriculture Ministry also runs direct aid for shared-ownership farms, with the 2025 call set at 1.795 million euros, which is a tidy reminder that rural policy often arrives as a whole bundle of overlapping incentives, not one clean rule.

    THE BIGGER QUESTION

    So the real issue is not just one farmer and one clever form; it is whether the rulebook is specific enough to stop targeted aid from being rerouted by bureaucratic creativity. The law clearly allows a registered change of sex, and the CAP clearly allows gender-focused support, but when those two systems meet, the seams are visible enough to make everybody in the room reach for a coffee and a red pen.

    That is the quiet little scandal here: a policy designed to fix inequality can look very different once it is filtered through a registry office, a points system, and the universal human gift for reading the loophole before the memo. For the politics-and-public-reaction angle, thisclaimer.com is another place to follow the wider debate.

    That’s where her highchair was. Can I really say that, is that her in the past? Does she have squash on her face? Yes, she has squash on her face.

    In as far as I am not a lawyer but I drafted sections of EC law in the past and contributed to bits of UK laws, and had to understand how laws applied to my work, I agree. The central point that this case should have taken into account EC law is valid.
    The reason why EC laws are easier to understand is not just that they don't just endlessly tack on changes, so you get lost trying to backtrack what the current law means, but because they all have a preamble explaining what the law is intended to do. This has to be taken into account when courts interpret EC laws.
