Using Ai to generate gay men for their social media, then filtering comments when called out. The purpose of a gay bar is to welcome individuality and promote inclusivity; we want a safe space to not feel judged or pressured to look or act a certain way. Their Ai images do the exact opposite. Do better. Maybe use Ai on your food? I wouldn’t feed that to my dog.

Very welcoming, and friendly. Place is a bit small and on a Saturday night was pretty much dead. Still always nice to have a safe place tho.
