Setting a New Standard

IT’S A POPULAR name, yet The Standard Hotels may be more famous than you realize. The New York City Meatpacking District property, a vaulted tower straddling the High Line park, is home to a rooftop venue called Top of The Standard (formerly known as the Boom Boom Room). It’s the site of the annual Met Gala after-party, among other A-list affairs. Meanwhile, The Standard on Miami Beach is hypervisible on social media for its yellow vinyl lawn chairs and 365-days-per-year pool scene. And the former Standard Hollywood haunt held a high-profile address between the equally notable Sunset Tower and Chateau Marmont hotels (this location was also the brand’s first). So you have, in all likelihood, seen a Standard—and the easygoing good life it spurs.

The Censoring of Social Media? - Why legislatures continually try to regulate freedom of expression, and what the courts are doing about it

There seems to be bipartisan agreement that everything from teen suicide rates to poor mental health and more is due to social media. The obvious solution, they believe, is to impose government oversight on how such services can be provided. Congress is considering sweeping social media legislation and a number of states have already enacted such laws.
