With my job, I stay in a lot of hotels. But until I stayed at a @YotelHQ in DC, I've never had to file a complaint with a Consumer Protection Division. I was charged over $100 more than expected in hidden fees and taxes and they refuse to reverse the charges.
My reservation confirmation clearly states that all fees and taxes have been paid. The clerk repeated that. But they charged me a "facility fee" for every day and then taxed that too. Speaking to a representative, they refuse to issue a refund no matter what.
One of the things I hated most was when I sent a pitch & it went into the electronic void. Was it a good pitch but the wrong time? Completely suck? How could I know?
I got over 200 pitches (& expected 30) from my call-out, but I can now say I've answered every single one. 🥳
Thanks for so many wonderful pitches everyone. I’ve been inundated with so many choices and mostly from women!!💃🏽
I’m going to hold off on accepting any more. The ones I won’t use, I’m passing along to the editors of our sister sites tho because 99% are fantastic.
Accepting travel pitches for @gaycities especially from POC, trans folk, & women. Email [email protected] Rate is between $100-250. Bigger projects pay more. Have a Pride in Places series about LGBTQ historic destinations going now. Example:

I've moved over to @gaycities as the editor. I'm looking for travel writers who are people of color, trans, or women. Let's bring more representation to the industry! Hit me with your pitches!
Did @kennychesney come out? Serious question. I thought he did but now can’t find anything about it. Did I imagine it?

I grew up being taught about the dignity of every human being. It shouldn’t take more than that to stand up and protect LGBTQ+ rights.
Thanks to @bilerico for this thoughtful conversation.

So, let me get this straight: yesterday the Supreme Court ruled colleges CAN’T discriminate on the basis of race but today they ruled that a web designer CAN discriminate against the LGBTQ+ community? Sorry, but this Court is so freaking messed up.
