Fast Company is proud to announce our fifth annual Queer 50 list, featuring a lineup of some of the most influential LGBTQ leaders in business, tech, and beyond. After a challenging year of anti-queer legislation and rhetoric, Queer 50 is a celebration of LGBTQ representation and influence. Honorees include those working on addressing responsible AI, trans rights, healthcare, and the future of work. Instead of ranking this year’s list, we chose to dive deeper into the accomplishments of 10 honorees: read stories about Roberta Kaplan, the attorney who represented E. Jean Carroll in her fight against Trump, and Jen Wong, the COO who helped take Reddit public. We’ve also considered all members of the LGBTQ community this year while still prioritizing the inclusion of historically marginalized gender identities. Explore the full list of 50 honorees: https://bit.ly/4cf43kt #FCQueer50

This global IT outage is awful It'll be a very long time before we're able to assess all the havoc being caused today by a CrowdStrike bug that impacted tens of thousands of Windows PCs. Here's an incomplete list of the types of services that have reportedly been affected: ✈️ Airlines 🏥 Hospitals and doctor's offices 💸 Banks and financial services 🍴Restaurants 🛒 Retail 🚨 Emergency services 💼 Small, medium, and large companies The good news is, what's happening is not a cyberattack. The bad news is? Some of the computers that are seeing the BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH may need to be manually rebooted, which could be extremely time consuming for smaller companies. Our story 👇

If the RNC demonstrated anything this week, it’s that Democrats have a branding problem "Scores of Trump supporters attended the rally wearing bandages on one ear. To liberals, the site has been fodder for ridicule: Folks in cowboy hats and red white and blue, smiling, laughing, or near tears, with a bunch of cotton taped to the side of their head in morbid homage to a reality show host - gone president - gone felon who was nearly killed in an assassination attempt not even a week ago. “But to those wearing the patch, it means something powerful. It’s not a celebration that ‘you tried to kill Trump and missed.’ To them, people worried that they’re losing authority over the world, it symbolizes, ‘you tried to kill us.’ “It’s impossible to think of a single contemporary symbol that’s united the left in the same way.” In my latest column for Fast Company, I examine the grand branding challenge of liberal America. In 2016, Trump successfully resurrected Ronald Regan’s MAGA hat. And in 2024, he’s found his sequel with a white bandage and a "fight" print. Why don’t the left’s symbols catch on the same way? Where is the MAGA hat for progressives? As you already know, it’s a nuanced topic, and I hope you’ll read my full thoughts tracing the last 20 years of strategy here: https://lnkd.in/g7Ac7bZ5
