(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.

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!"

We still can't get over this sketch!❤️❤️❤️ Thank you @danjlevy, Bowen Yang, Kate McKinnon, Punkie Johnson, and all of the proudly out people at @nbcsnl who made last night's skit happen. We love you! #Itgetsbetter
It does truly get better. And then, sometimes, within that better, there are some things that are, like, less better.

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!
