An "It Gets Better" video that made me sob.

Trigger warnings for domestic violence, predatory sexual behavior from a teacher, talk of self-harm, suicide, depression.

Um, it made me sob and it's awesome. This chick is awesome.

Oh yeah, and while it's a video, it's all written on note-cards, so accessible for Deaf and HoH folks.

That's a very cogent explanation, thank you.

I'm in one community where there's been a trend of cuts saying something is potentially triggering but not actually providing information (before or after the cut) that would enable one to make any sort of decision as to whether to continue and I couldn't figure out how it was possibly supposed to work. (I'm not sure it works in that community, but at least I can now see that the trend may be poor implemation of a reasonable idea.)
