We're devastated to hear the news of Lia Smith's passing. Our hearts are with Lia's family, friends, and the entire trans community in Vermont in mourning her tragic loss.

If you or a someone you love is struggling, please remember that help is available.

Lia Smith, a 21 trans student at Middlebury College in Vermont, is dead.

Smith, double major in computer science and statistics, was a former diver on the women’s swimming and diving team, a member of the chess club, & an advocate of trans rights.

istfg if we continue to see people using the stigmatized "committed" suicide 🀬 people die by suicide. they do not commit suicide. please stop using judgemental terminology when discussing the cause of death.

we are devastated by the young trans woman in vermont who died by suicide.

This Vermonter is awfully proud and thankful to him for making his stand on that street.

This Vermonter's heart is swelled to know your protest took place on that street.

Had the pleasure of driving through Kansas while driving x-country in spring of '23: While the devastation to your farms / small towns was just heartbreaking, you folks were the kindest the whole trip.

Thanks Kansas!

...that the Resolution exists, and that their council already has all of the information.

However, I am also very interested in the YNP. I am already committed to the No Kings Protest in Rutland City on Saturday, so I will not be able to go to Montpelier for this round, but please DM me.

My apologies, Mr. Graves: I mistakenly thought you were a Montpelier local.
The Montpelier City council is under no obligation to consider my request that they adopt a Resolution for themselves, as I am not one of their constituents; I have been trying to notify ANY public in Montpelier...

The City Council of Montpelier has been sent the materials to create a Resolution for their own municipality but apparently had not presented this to their public. 19 other Vermont towns have joined Rutland in making their own Resolutions: Could any of you folks help me out?

Us ALLIES need to speak up more in defense of those in vulnerable communities; all the time, every chance we can get, with anyone who will listen. Especially now.

Speak up in defense of those who cannot safely do it for themselves, and take the time to educate people who are ignorant.

Vermont only has one representative, and hence, only one district. Not much we can do here.

For whatever it's worth, the drought ruined all chances for good color this year anyway.
I hope you are able to find other ways to disassociate.

Half of the Heavily Brothers right there!
Even outside of his own music catalog, he doesn't get enough credit for just how much he grew and supported the VT local music scene.

This Vermonter understands well the severity and utter insanity of how America has betrayed our greatest ally, and fully supports Canada keeping their elbows up!
We miss you dearly, but I'm certainly not going to invite my neighbor to come back into my house while it is still on fire.

The drought we've been in for the last two months is going to leave you folks very disappointed with the foliage this year: Leaves are already going straight to brown.
And the color in this posted photo is HEAVILY saturated- you're only going to see color like that here if you're on hallucinogens.
