“It Gets Better” — Love, Pixar (via PixGetsBetter) A message of hope from the employees at Pixar Animation Studios. 

One of us posted this on our Twitter feed, and I can’t help but add it here too. I watched this and got really choked up, same as any time I watch any of the It Gets Better testimonials, because years ago I also considered suicide as a closeted teen. 

So I’d like to issue a call of action to my fellow LGBT illustrators, comic creators, designers, and artists: let’s make our contribution to this project too. Get in touch, let’s make it happen. (Especially if you volunteer to edit the videos together!)
