I was a dyed-in-the-wool believer in best practices in writing about suicide. In better times I'd gladly return to those best practices. But in 2026 trans people's suicides are actively sought by poltical leaders who are only too happy for trans people to mince our words.

I no longer mince my words because we're not living in a world that is trying to prevent trans suicide. Until we return to such a world we will save many more lives by being frank and direct in how we speak about this.
