Spirit Day (Vlog 5, 10/20/11)

It's Spirit Day and I made a new video! I did steal my description of Spirit Day from Wikipedia so I am going to post that and some other links down below. Also, as before (and probably from here on out) help links are posted at the bottom of this description. Please, if you need to AT ALL, don't be afraid to use them (or contact me; but they're better than me), that's what they're there for. It really does get better, I promise.

So, until next time, all my best,
Joe =]

I'm sure GLAAD is against deformation as well. People who are deformed are people too! =)

@johntakai8429 Haha right you are. I would hope they would be =]

Ciao Bello!

Guiseppe (Joseph or "Zeppe" for Joe) "Il Ragazzo Bello e Dolce"! That Joe translates as "The Beautiful or Handsome if you prefer, Sweet Boy"! Grazie for uploading this, you and your generation of fully committed "Out n' Affirming" young folks continue to astonish and fill me with hope!

@wilcodude

Together we all shall bring an end to the grotesque phenomenon of young folks taking their own lives! You all Joe, make Bobby Griffiths' (Prayers for Bobby) old lover/boyfriend "Blaine" here so f**king proud of the lot of you!

Ti Amo Molto Per Questo! (I Luvs Ya Lots For This)

Con L'Amore e Molti Baci! (Lots A Love n' Kisses)

Tuo Zio Nuovo e Amico! (Your New "Uncle" and Friend)
