Cw: suicide
This article is devastating.

Earlier this month, a 15-year-old died by suicide the day after posting about a substitute teacher insisting on misgendering him.

Hmm, I should *really* get to actually refollowing everyone on here that I follow on the hell site (sadly can't *completely* dump that site cause of foreign artists I follow). I've been mainly using Bluesky for a long while now, but I keep being too lazy to get around to doing all that. x3

A manager's amendment removed the words "for minors."
