Hey folks! Hope you're holding up ok, it's been a tough couple of days.

This is Pride weekend in Seattle, and I've been wandering around through the noise & chaos & parties & protests -- all of which started, as I'm sure you know, as a furious riot at injustice, and continues to be an annual reminder that none of us is in any of this alone. With this week's bonus video, I want to bring you some stuff that'll hopefully cheer you up and also provide a little inspiration for the fury and focus to come. I've got some great clips sent in by viewers like you (thank you for those!) and also the story of the gay man who invented the high-five. Also: A bit of a mystery around Seinfeld's famous episode "The Outing." And we'll wrap things up with a very special message to some very awful people.

Glenn Burke absolutely invented the high five, I will not be taking questions at this time

Did you link to the $1.98 Beauty Show by mistake, or is that a little Easter egg?

Happy Pride, Matt! I almost made it up to CH Pride yesterday... might have made the effort if I knew you were there! I literally live 4 blocks away but then I remembered I need to cement my reputation as a stay-at-home gay. 🤣 That and the heat... but I've got the parade livestream going and watching your video. Happy Pride, y'all! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈

I think I remember that Seinfeld

Robert Craig "Evel" Knievel credited his daredevil styling to Liberace and if I recall the quote correctly that "flying" part of his show. I feel like there is audio of an interview with him talking about seeing Liberace for the first time.

I am so glad you brought up Glenn Burke. By all accounts he was a wonderful charismatic man. He never hid that he was gay - all his team mates knew. He was considered by some to be the glue that held the team together; his joi de vivre and comic antics attracted the other players. He played for the LA Dodgers and the team manager, Tommy Lasorda got rid of him by trading him to Oakland because he was a good friend of Tommy's son who was a rather flamboyant gay man; Tommy blamed all his son's behavior on Glenn. To his last breath Tommy denied that his son was gay and that he died from AIDS. (He was and he did). The manager of the Raiders at the time was Billy Martin who treated him shamefully and got rid of him ASAP. It is rumored that Billy introduced him to his new teammates by saying his name and adding, "He's a fag". Glenn left MLB and was then instrumental in founding a gay baseball league. He played for his favorite SF bar (mine, too) the Pendulum. While he played for them , the Pendulum's team dominated the league. His final years were tragic and sad. I used to be indifferent to Lasorda and I kind of got a kick out of Billy Martin, but since I learned of their treatment of this amazing man, I feel nothing but contempt for both of them.

Levarachi sued two different paper for saying he was gay and won both times. That's the world 🌎 we live in

My city, Ogden Ut, celebrates Pride in August... we're stubborn that way, also then no one has to choose between local and Salt Lake City celebrations. I love your opening shot. Thanks!
