To all WPD subscribers.

I, on principle, rarely watch the ISIS videos. I wouldn't mind banning those.

With suicides... It's tough. I certainly don't want to be part of glorifying it. But as many have said, if those videos are actually causing people to stop and think when they're on the brink themselves, well, maybe they're not so bad.

I'm here, like many others, for the real evidence of how fragile and fleeting life can be. I can't not watch. It's awful sometimes... Gruesome. But that's what real life can be sometimes. I understand if people are squeamish, and that's okay. This sub isn't for you. But for me it's a reminder to cherish even the little things. To put my seatbelt on. To know that every day is a beautiful gift not to be squandered.
