Just if you are queer and / or suffer from mental illness you are not alone. There are hundreds of thousands of people like you struggling as well as succeeding everyday. No matter where you feel you are, you can always help someone else. Be safe, be kind and always be YOU.
One important part of the Pittsburgh MasQUe ProjecT is highlighting safe and affirming places for trans and queer folx to purchase masks. In addition to this Q&A series, we maintain a list on the project homepage. This Q&A was crafted to highlight some unique aspects of the participating businesses and explore related issues, including the manifestation of racial justice in the LGBTQIA+ community and the real struggles of running a small business in this economy.
I discovered The Proper Bunny through Instagram. So I reached out to Oneita and asked her to complete a Q&A for our Pittsburgh MasQUe ProjecT. I love that The Proper Bunny is part of an entire reality with zines, graphic novels, etc. And I really loved Oneita’s shout-out at the end of the Q&A, so much that I moved it to the top — we all need to hear this, especially coming from people who help us live safer lives.
