savage love goes soft

Seattle's own Dan Savage, of The Stranger's infamous & wonderful Savage Love column, has a new project.  A video collection of stories to stand in the face of ongoing and vicious bullying of gay, lesbian, and otherwise queer kids (& the conservatives who condone such behavior by themselves taking a stand against anti-bullying legislation).  These videos, unlike much of the political and media rhetoric around this subject, address these kids directly and simply with the message that life will get better.

This, yeah, this is one of those things that made me cry.
