This is my last big piece of the year. I wrote it as much for myself as anybody else, because there's so many EOs, court cases, temporary successes, and reversals.
I wanted a place to put it all, something to come back to in future years, to keep the knowledge of what 2025 meant to trans rights.

The scope of Trump's campaign to drive trans Americans from public life is vast. On the last day of 2025, Evan Urquhart attempts to capture all of what we lost.

The Year We Lost Everything — Assigned
An authoritarian government, a captured press and cowardice at the head of most major institutions led to a year of losses for trans people’s safety and equality in the US.

Researchers had people do a memory task, take a 10-min break (rest, Twitter, YouTube, or TikTok), then resume.
Result? Only TikTok wrecked their ability to remember planned intentions. After scrolling, accuracy dropped from ~80% to basically coin-flip levels. Twitter & YouTube? No effect.

Experimental evidence that students are more likely to contest grades when they are delivered by an evaluator with a female-sounding name.
"These findings suggest that women in evaluative positions face disproportionate resistance when delivering negative assessments."
