(1/2) It Gets Better fosters safe spaces for LGBTQ+ youth to meaningfully connect with communities of support both online and IRL.
Unfortunately, Twitter/X is no longer a space where we can safely and effectively do this work, so we're pausing all future content on the platform.
ALT Graphic showing a piece of taped-up paper that reads, "It Gets Better fosters safe spaces for young LGBTQ+ people to meaningfully connect with communities of support both online and IRL. Twitter/X is no longer a space where we can safely and effectively do this work, so we are pausing all future content on the platform. BUT, to the 187K+ folks who joined our movement on Twitter/X – you can still find community at ItGetsBetter.org and on all other social media platforms @ItGetsBetter. Let’s keep queer joy front and center!"
When @ChrisEvans and @thescottevans tell you it's "time to step up and be an ally..."
...you kind of HAVE to, right?

(1/5) What a beautiful day to spend with TRANS VOICES! 👏
Happy #TransDayofVisibility - check the thread for ways you can celebrate being authentic, loved, and visible today (or, even better... EVERY DAY):
“I’ve become a lot happier at school, I’ve met new people and come to understand who my real friends are. All of this seemed impossible to the boy I was a mere 12 months ago.” ❤️🌈 #itgetsbetter#MondayMotivaton
This is the moment a gay student at one of Sydney’s most elite Catholic schools - that boasts former prime minister Tony Abbott and Barnaby Joyce among its alumni - stood up in a packed assembly hall of more than 1,500 students and came out
🏳️🌈 Happy #NationalComingOutDay to those of you who...
-Have come out
-Are coming out today
-Feel unsafe coming out
-Or never want to!
Coming out should be your own journey, on your own time, when and if you feel ready.
You don't have to be out, loud, and proud to be LGBTQ+! 💜

.@JanelleMonae talks coming out: "If people look at me as that beacon of hope, that’s great, but I always tell people don’t feel any pressure to be me. Take your time.” 🏳️🌈

It's #NonbinaryPeoplesDay! 💛🤍💜🖤
There can be a lot of pressure to "look" nonbinary - certain hair, certain clothes, certain style...
but we know there's no single "nonbinary look."
If you're nonbinary, reply or quote with a selfie to show the world #whatnonbinarylookslike!
