My Minnesotan friend Tynan Fox, a speaker, author, activist and all-round cute red-headed educator I've been wanting to tie up for years and might have tied up at IML if we both hadn't been too busy, has had the brilliant idea of opening a Coffee Bar (called "& Latte") on busy Hennepin Avenue in Minneapolis, adjoining his new and thriving leather shop. He needs to raise $11,000 to pretty up the place, and is trying to do so through Kickstarter, which accepts contributions from $10 and up. He won't get any money unless he gets it all, and he has 12 days left to do that.
So many gay bars of all types have disappeared in recent years, there are fewer and fewer offline meeting places for people like us. I can't think of anything nicer than a leather/latex coffee bar, with a fire pit in the back yard. "Hi Sailor, new in town? What do you think of this Angry Fox hot chocolate?"
I urge you to click on & Latte and send a few bucks Tynan's way.
