A Twitter thread between Nicola Cliffe and TweetChizone. Nicola asks “what is the kindest thing a stranger has done or said to you?” TweetChizone replies “Oh god, I can’t even tell this story and not cry. I use to manage an LGBT bookstore, when bookstores were still a thing. One night, a caller says he thinks he might be gay and considering self harm. We are not a crisis center! But as long as we’re talking, he’s safe, right? So I talk to this guy and I answer questions and I try to be encouraging and I’m maybe sounding a little frantic and I’m definitely ignoring the 4-5 customers in the store, and this angel of a woman puts her hand on my shoulder and asks for the phone. ‘My turn’” she says. And she, this 50 something lesbian talks to this stranger on the phone. And a line forms behind her. EVery customer in that store knows that call, knows that feeling, and every person takes a turn talking to that man. That story comforts me so much to this day.” Nicole replies “This is so kind I cannot.”

Entire LGBT bookstore supports struggling gay man.
