Read Suicide Notes (piefed.social)
submitted 3 weeks ago by reeds@piefed.social to c/trans

Get your elected officials, allies, and/or yourself to read suicide notes... or share stories, if that is too heavy.

Make the stories personal. Speak to those you can.

Be wary of going on news or podcasts. Ideally, don't. But be prepared, if you must.

Malicious people might try to turn it around. Simply be a champion to all.

Please , help spread the words. To activists, and to politicians who are willing to speak. To those who you are uncertain of, but will give a chance to. To other social media sites, both big and small. To anyone who would be willing to act.


I would not be a maintainer, but feel free to make a git repository and polish these articles. If not on GitHub or GitLab, then on codeberg, radicle, or elsewhere. Good luck, and thank you.
