Shop Talk looks at a simple word swap to make you sound more confident and assured. We agree. Caught My Eye yearns for the good ole days of the Luxor in Las Vegas. A recent review was not so kind to this once regal property along the Vegas Strip. Also, close to a million dollars’ worth of Tiffany diamonds are “retrieved” from a robbery suspect who swallowed them…in Florida. Duncan Hines, namesake of various food-related businesses, is our Business Birthday.

We’re all business. Except when we’re not.

This June World Pride invites LGBTQ people from around the world to Washington, D.C. Organizers are playing each day by ear as the Trump Administration cracks down on DEI initiatives and those federal agencies or companies that don’t adhere to his orders will lose funding or contracts.

The Trump Administration teamed up with the far-right hate group, Moms for Liberty, to tattle on public schools that have diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts via an online portal—which already seems to have been taken down. The site was being flooded with porn and spam. Then, IBM and a French engineering company have partnered to recycle polyester clothing and help the environment with the 134 million tons of textiles discarded each year. Finally, passengers on an Air India trip from Chicago to Delhi had a crappy flight when the plane had to make a U-turn over Greenland when 11 of the 12 toilets became clogged.

Guest writer to Out Magazine, Jeff McMullen, argues this it is time to ditch the ever expanding and often confusing LGBTQ+. We agree, but not sure we like his suggested moniker. Then, an Atlanta Pastor, Jamal Bryant, is calling for a 40-day black economic boycott of Target due to their reversal on DEI initiatives. Finally, some bodegas in NYC are selling “loosies,” but with a twist and not the single cigarettes we associate with the name.
