Screenshot from the article that reads, The Stud, San Francisco's oldest gay bar, was only able to have its Meta pages restored because of the bars popularity among gay tech executives with connections to Meta

Gnome Watching Railway Train, c. 1848, by Carl Spitzweg #art Gnome Watching Railway Train was made a decade after the opening of the first railway line in Germany, and the technology had rapidly become commonplace. It was painted with oil on the lid of a cigar box.

Very cool that Shopify’s CEO thinks the poor should have far less of a vote than the rich. Still worth that ad read money, folks?
Shopify CEO Tobi Lutke says “good system.” In response to the following proposal: 

“Interesting... what about weighted voting proportional to the level of income tax you pay? (no income tax paid - O vote, $1-100k - 1 vote, $100-200k 2 votes and so on... cap it at 5 votes for $500k+. For those that constantly complain about the wealthy not paying tax/fair share they'd have nothing to worry about right? Why not reward representation of taxation and build a democracy around those that foot the bill?”

i think everyone’s bosses have gone insane
At the center is Ken Martin, the 53-year-old party chairman, who has found himself increasingly isolated, gripped by the fear that he will lose his job and relying on a vanishingly small circle of people he trusts, according to interviews with more than two dozen Democrats, including current and former D.N.C. officials and members.
Most of them spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss the party's troubled state of affairs.
Mr. Martin's fraying nerves are showing. In a pique of frustration in early July, he threw his phone at the desk of a junior aide while upbraiding the person. The phone-tossing incident resulted in a formal complaint to the D.N.C.s human resources department.Now, Mr. Martin is both paralyzed by the idea of leaks and surrounded by them. During a May meeting with the full staff of the D.N.C. days after the draft autopsy's release, he admitted that times were tough and chided the team for revealing to reporters what was happening inside party headquarters.
"It pisses me off when I see leaks out of this building," Mr. Martin said, according to four people who heard the remarks, adding, "No more."
Mr. Martin said he saw "a lot of down faces" and
"people hanging their heads." He urged: "Keep your head up. Keep a smile on your face."
"My success is your success," he added at another point in the meeting. "So the weaker I am, the weaker all of you are."
Mr. Martin has not addressed the entire party staff since.

Happy Pride Month. If you're a gay man, please remember your power. People often think that gay men are innately fashionable, which means if you wear some stupid shit for long enough, straight people, including homophobes, will copy you and then you can laugh at them.

so the guy sharing gross transphobic slop with Epstein here is Robert Trivers, the scientist who invented the specious yet popular "parental investment" theory, in which sperm are cheap so men want to f*ck lots of women, but eggs are expensive so women are looking for a man with "good genes"...

Elon Musk tweet: If I actually wanted to spend my time partying with young women, it would be trivial for me to do so without the help of a creepy loser like Epstein and I would still have 99% of my mind available to think about other things.

I'm catching up on Doctor Who and I'm little over halfway through Gatwa's first season and I'm loving it. Ruby and 15 are having so much fun but also, somehow, acknowledging just how traumatic their experiences are. The supernatural elements are fun but it's a sci-fi show, I hope they change that

Stop signs only exist because cars are incredibly dangerous. Also, in many cities, cyclists are allowed to move through intersections without stopping at stop sign or red lights if they're going slow enough to see that the intersecting road is clear and they're safe to proceed
