They say the United States is a divided country, but it sure doesn’t feel that way when a truly harebrained opinion piece gets dropped on the internet. Americans of all stripes can always seem to come together on Twitter around a good old-fashioned ratio. And that’s exactly what happened when the Orlando Sentinel dropped an op-ed last week from a certified Adult Disney Fan™ about how new measures of cast inclusivity and updates to racist rides were ruining the Walt Disney World experience. In a piece headlined “I love Disney World, but wokeness is ruining the experience,” Las Vegasarea district attorney Jonathan VanBoskerck decried Disney’s loosening of their strict employee dress code and updates to rides like Jungle Cruise, Splash Mountain and Pirates of the Caribbean. “The next time I ride Jungle Cruise I will not be thinking about the gloriously entertaining puns of the skippers, I will be thinking about Disney’s political agenda,” he wrote. “That’s a mood killer.” In the case of Splash Mountain, VanBoskerck wants his ride based on a 1946 movie that claimed slaves lived happy, idyllic lives on the plantation to be free of politics. The Clark County deputy district attorney just wants to leave behind his job of advocating for the death penalty for a place that’s free of politics. (When a conservative says “politics” in a negative way, they typically mean “consequences.”) This pushed Twitter over the edge, with all corners coming together to slam the oped. But among the general indignation and overflowment of sick burns was an epic thread from filmmaker Abigail Disney, granddaughter of Roy O. Disney and great-niece of Walt himself, utterly dismantling VanBoskerck’s limp take. We reproduce it here for your delectation.

ILLUSTRATION BY CLAY JONES
HOW TO SAVE POLICING FROM THE COPS If you don’t want the movement to defund police to gain traction, we need radical transparency and real disciplinary measures BY JEFFREY C. BILL M A N
It was tempting to think that Derek
Chauvin’s conviction for the murder of George Floyd signaled, well, something. A long-overdue reckoning with the systemic racism and violence pervasive in policing, perhaps. At least an acknowledgment that bad cops must pay for their crimes. But that’s not really what last Tuesday’s verdict was about. Consider how the Minneapolis Police Department initially reported Floyd’s murder-by-cop: “[Floyd] was ordered to step from his car. After he got out, he physically resisted officers. Officers were able to get the suspect into handcuffs and noted he appeared to be suffering medical distress. Officers called for an ambulance. He was transported to Hennepin County Medical Center by ambulance where he died a short time later.” If a 17-year-old girl hadn’t shot video of Chauvin choking Floyd to death as he begged for his life, that would have been the official story. George Floyd would have been just another Black man who died resisting the police. His memory would never have turned into a cause. Think of how many times, before everyone carried a videocamera in their pocket, some poor guy — usually Black — “physically resisted officers” and then, a few minutes later, “appeared to be suffering medical distress,” and
nobody thought twice about it. Here’s what I learned from reporting on the police: Cops lie. A lot. Not all of them, and not all the time. But enough that we shouldn’t treat the words “police say” like they were handed down from the mountain. And they almost always get away with lying. Short of incontrovertible evidence to the contrary — and sometimes, even when there is — police statements are taken as gospel by the courts, by the media, by the public. Understand this: Most internal affairs divisions are a joke, state laws and union contracts protect psychopaths along with decent beat cops, and district attorneys usually only prosecute law enforcement when circumstances and politics afford them no other choice. I shouldn’t have been surprised by the Chauvin verdict. The evidence was clear as day and damning as hell. Still, the very idea that a cop might be punished for even a broad-daylight murder was such a foreign concept that I’d resigned myself to skepticism until I heard “guilty.” (Guessing from the look on his face, Chauvin shared my expectations.) I’ll retain some of that skepticism until his sentencing in two months. But if you believed this moment — not exactly justice, but maybe accountability — meant we’ve rounded the corner, you didn’t have to wait long to be disabused of
that notion. Put aside the tragic death of Ma’Khia Bryant, a 16-year-old Black girl shot dead by a cop in Columbus, Ohio, at about the same time the Chauvin verdict was announced, as the body-cam footage shows that Bryant was trying to stab another girl when she was shot — though cops reportedly telling neighbors that “blue lives matter” while Ma’Khia lay dead showed real class. Instead, look to the case of Andrew Brown Jr., a 42-yearold Black man who was shot in the back by North Carolina sheriff’s deputies who were serving an arrest warrant on drug charges. Witnesses say the Pasquotank County deputies fired while Brown was in his car driving away; photos from the scene and police radio indicate that’s exactly what happened. The sheriff says there is body-cam footage, but it hasn’t been released, which I can’t imagine bodes well for law enforcement. Nor does the fact that no one has even tried to offer a justification for Brown’s death. (Seven deputies are on leave and three more have resigned, though the sheriff’s office says the resignations aren’t related to the shooting.) No less than George Floyd’s murder, this will be yet another test of whether the “justice” system applies to cops who kill Black people, this time in a small, swing county in a growing swing state. The system usually flunks these tests, of course: Think of Philando Castile, Sean Bell, Freddie Gray, Sandra Bland, Breonna Taylor, Stephon Clark, Tamir Rice, Michael Brown and Eric Garner, to name a few. The idea of defunding or abolishing the police deserves more interrogation than I have space for here, both in terms of politics and practicalities. At a bare minimum, though, we must rethink our relationship to policing and the people to whom we give license to exercise statesponsored violence. If we must have cops — if we are paying people whom we allow to kill us — shouldn’t we have the right to demand that they be good at their jobs? And shouldn’t we, the public, have the right to know everything about them and their work — easy access to their personnel files and internal affairs records, for instance? If you don’t want the movement to defund police to gain traction, you should demand radical transparency and disciplinary regimes that make it easy to get rid of not just the proverbial bad apples, but the not-so-bad apples that cover for the bad apples. Fully empowered citizen review boards are a start. Saving policing from itself will require changing both the nature of the profession and the people who practice it. For too long, politicians in both parties and at every level have been beholden to police unions and terrified of being labeled “soft on crime.” We built a carceral state unparalleled in the world and gave cops free rein to enforce the law however they saw fit, especially when they did so in Brown and Black neighborhoods. Overpaying a consultant for a few hours of “racial equity” training won’t salve the wound. If the cops want the respect of the communities they serve, they’ll need to earn it. Rather than dressing up like G.I. Joe and playing war with Black Lives Matter protesters every time some cops guns down an unarmed Black man, maybe they should think about how to make the next protest unnecessary.

Florida Senate approves unemployment benefits increase; now it’s up to the House — and DeSantis Despite opposition from Gov. Ron DeSantis, Florida senators plowed ahead last Thursday with a proposal to increase state unemployment benefits, which are among the lowest in the nation. The Senate voted 40-0 to approve a bill (SB 1906) that would increase maximum weekly payments from $275 to $375 and add more weeks in which benefits would be available. The vote came days after DeSantis voiced opposition and the House rejected efforts to boost benefits. “This is a good moment for us,” Senate Minority Leader Gary Farmer, D-Lighthouse Point, said. “We’ve all spent many, many hours and days fielding those calls from our constituents who are struggling with the unemployment system. And I want to thank our partners here in the Senate for hearing the cries of our constituents and having the courage — and President [Wilton] Simpson and his leadership team for sticking to their guns and doing an increase of benefits.” Bill sponsor Jason Brodeur, R-Sanford, said the need to make changes became apparent over the past year after massive job losses during the coronavirus pandemic. In addition to spurring calls for increased benefits, a flood of claims overwhelmed the state’s CONNECT online unemployment system. “This bill is just an effort to raise levels to meet the needs of Floridians in the last decade,” Brodeur said. “The cost of living has risen, the price of housing has exploded, and we need to respond.” The prospects for the bill’s success remains dubious, as House Republicans rejected Democratic proposals to increase benefits. Echoing DeSantis, House Speaker Chris Sprowls, R-Palm Harbor, said Thursday the House’s focus is on getting people back to work. “We have a workforce out there, some of whom are not back to work. We need to be focusing on getting them back to work,” Sprowls told reporters. “We also have to realize that we have a broken workforce system, you know, and I don’t mean just the CONNECT system. We all can agree that the system didn’t work. But I mean, the actual, you know, boots on the ground. The network of individuals and systems that are supposed to be designed to help someone who wants to find a job and wants to find meaningful work to find that job inside their community.” DeSantis last Friday voiced opposition to increasing benefits during an appearance in Lakeland. “You see or hear the stories, there’s businesses [that] need more. You know, our goal is to get people back to work. I think there’s a lot of demand right now,” DeSantis said. “I’d like to get that unemployment rate below 4 percent if we can. But it’s going to take some of these inhibitions being moved off, and us being able to operate all of our industries. But there is demand in the economy for hiring and that’s a good thing; much different than it was a year ago.” Asked about the governor’s opposition, Simpson, R-Trilby, replied, “We’re going to let the process work to see where we end up on that.” Simpson then acknowledged, “The governor can veto anything we do.” The bill is among several changes the Legislature is considering for the unemployment system. Budget negotiators are looking at spending up to $36 million to start the process of revamping CONNECT with a cloud-based system. Meanwhile, Brodeur’s bill would scale back a “work search” requirement that currently says people on unemployment must reach out to five prospective employers each week. The bill calls for the number of job searches to drop to three a week for most people and to two a week for people living in counties with fewer than 75,000 residents. The bill also would set at 14 the number of weeks benefits would be offered when the unemployment rate is at or below 5 percent. An extra week would be added for each 0.5 percentage point above 5 percent in the third quarter of a calendar year. Current law sets the number of weeks at 12 when unemployment is at or below 5 percent, with an additional week added for each 0.5 percentage point above 5 percent in the third quarter of a calendar year. A concern of House Republicans has been that an increase in benefits could result in a need to further increase the amounts of money businesses would have to contribute to the state’s unemployment compensation trust fund. Similar reasoning was used when benefits were cut in 2011 to blunt a major increase in unemployment taxes on businesses.
Late Monday, DeSantis signed into law a bill to require out-of-state online retailers to collect sales taxes on purchases made by Floridians. Many businesses, such as Amazon, that have a physical footprint in the state already do so. The requirement is projected to generate up to $1 billion a year, and the money will initially be used to replenish the unemployment trust fund, which has become depleted during the past year. Before the pandemic, businesses paid $7 per employee in unemployment taxes. The rate went to $49 this year and could have jumped to $87 without the online-tax law. — Jim Turner, NSF
Quote of the Week: “Mr. Jordan, you don’t know what the heck you’re talking about.” Democratic Rep. Val Demings (D-Orlando) and Republican Rep. Jim Jordan had a heated exchange last week during a House Judiciary hearing after Jordan tried to cut Demings short as she spoke about law enforcement. During debate over the COVID-19 Hate Crimes Act, which would address the surge of hate crimes against Asian Americans, Republicans introduced an amendment that would prevent the defunding of police departments even though the legislation does not seek to strip law enforcement funding. “I want to make it quite clear that this amendment is completely irrelevant,” Demings, who served as chief of the Orlando Police Department for three years, said. At that point, Jordan sought to interject, earning a fierce rebuttal from Demings, who struck her hand against the desk in front of her and exclaimed: “I have the floor, Mr. Jordan.” “Did I strike a nerve?” Demings continued as she looked in the Ohio Republican’s direction. “Law enforcement officers deserve better that to be utilized as pawns. And you and your colleagues should be ashamed of yourselves.” House Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler interrupted the exchange in an effort to restore order to the hearing, but when Jordan said he agreed with Nadler that members shouldn’t shout out of turn, Demings shot back: “Mr. Jordan, you don’t know what the heck you’re talking about.” Give’ em hell, Val.

NEW NE WS
RUMBLE IN THE JUNGLE The gov is ready for his conservative closeup on a new YouTube competitor
FASHIN’ WEEK
Gov. Ron DeSantis has taken his online messaging to Rumble, a Toronto-based competitor of YouTube favored by conservatives. The shift came after the Google-owned YouTube removed — arguing it was misinformation — a video featuring DeSantis and his group of experts discussing how to handle the coronavirus pandemic. Rumble welcomed the governor as a “valued addition” to the platform. “Gov. Ron DeSantis is a longtime proponent of free speech and has been at the forefront of the effort to demonopolize Big Tech,” Rumble CEO Chris Pavlovski wrote. “He understands firsthand Americans’ distrust of monolithic tech companies and the danger they pose to free expression and free markets. In fact, YouTube recently removed from its platform a video of the governor and a handful of Ivy League-educated medical experts discussing the downsides of prolonged pandemic-related lockdowns. Rumble, on the other hand, invites robust and civic dialogue on our platform, including Gov. DeSantis’ insights and expertise.” DeSantis’ first Rumble posting was a video on April 15 titled, “Gov. DeSantis Fights Back Against Big Tech Censorship.” On Tuesday, he tweeted a link to his Rumble page to promote the signing of a controversial law-and-order bill (HB 1). Ramping up his focus on re-election in 2022 and a potential presidential bid in 2024, DeSantis has made caustic attacks on tech companies — Facebook, Twitter, Google, Apple and Amazon — and “corporate media” a part of routine appearances. DeSantis has joined other conservatives who contend the companies control an online narrative that suppresses the views of Republicans. The ire has grown since Twitter blocked former President Donald Trump and Amazon dropped the Parler app used by many conservatives after the Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol by Trump supporters. Rumble is challenging Google in court, claiming the Canadian company’s potential revenue is harmed by an algorithm designed to favor YouTube in search results. — Jim Turner, NSF

With a Trumpian stroke of the Sharpie approving HB 1, Ron DeSantis has taken Florida deeper into fascist territory than we’ve been before BY RYAN DA ILEY, NSF
S
urrounded by political allies and law officers last Monday at the Polk County Sheriff’s Office, Gov. Ron DeSantis signed what was arguably the most controversial piece of legislation considered this session — House Bill 1, dubbed by its Republican sponsors the “Combating Public Disorder Act.” DeSantis’ swift action to sign the so-called “anti-riot” bill Monday was the culmination of months of the governor’s efforts to solidify himself as an architect of law-and-order policies. DeSantis first laid out a framework for the legislation in September, long before the Senate gave final approval to the bill April 15 despite heart-rending objections from Black lawmakers. “In September we were here with [Polk County] Sheriff [Grady] Judd hosting us, and we put out a vision for the state to maintain being a law-and-order state. We saw really unprecedented disorder and rioting throughout the summer of 2020, and we said that’s not going to happen here,” DeSantis said during the news conference Monday. The legislation took effect with the stroke of DeSantis’ Sharpie and marked the governor’s response to nationwide protests after the May 2020 death of George Floyd in Minneapolis. The bill’s signing came one day before a jury found ex-Minneapolis Police Officer Derek Chauvin guilty of murdering Floyd, capping a weeks-long trial that captured the world’s attention and reignited debates about policing reform. DeSantis, who is up for re-election in 2022 and is increasingly being floated by conservatives as a 2024 presidential contender, seized the moment Monday to again reject the idea of reducing law-enforcement spending. “This bill actually prevents against local government defunding law enforcement. We’ll be able to stop it at the state level,” DeSantis said. “It’s an insane theory. It’s not going to be allowed to ever carry the day in the state of Florida.” The set of laws creates a new felony crime of “aggravated
rioting” that carries a sentence of up to 15 years in prison. Also put in place is a new crime of “mob intimidation,” which makes it unlawful for a group of three or more people “acting with a common intent” to use or threaten force in an attempt to “compel or induce, another person to do or refrain from doing any act or to assume, abandon, or maintain a particular viewpoint against his or her will.” Tearing down statues or monuments also has become a felony crime in Florida under the laws. By Monday afternoon, Democratic lawmakers and Agriculture Commissioner Nikki Fried, the lone statewide elected Democrat and presumed challenger next year to DeSantis, gathered on the steps of the Old Capitol to sound off on what they characterized as a death blow to First Amendment rights. “Because of problems in our law-enforcement and criminaljustice system, this will be used to silence and harm Black and Brown Floridians,” House Minority Co-leader Bobby DuBose, D-Fort Lauderdale, said. Other Democratic legislators painted the governor as hypocritical and selective in his approach to applying “law and order.” “Not one time did he make mention of the Jan. 6 insurrection,” said Sen. Shevrin Jones, D-West Park, holding up an image of pro-Trump rioters storming the U.S. Capitol. “This is what he should have called out today.” By Wednesday, predictions that the measure would be challenged in court were realized, with civil-rights attorneys filing a lawsuit challenging its constitutionality. The measures “target protected speech under the First Amendment” and “retaliate against” protesters by imposing “excessive bail, fines, or cruel and unusual punishment as a means of hindering the speech of dissenting opinions,” Orlando lawyer Aaron Carter Bates wrote in the 22-page lawsuit. feedback@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

race Potter held court at the Dr. Phil’s Frontyard Festival during an intimate set that saw her taking requests, chatting with the audience, and holding the assembled faithful rapt with bluesy, stripped-down takes on her songs. Potter traveled in style to the gig in timeless yet 21st-century style in an RV, like Neil Young at his nomadic best, and treated the Frontyard like a front porch. If you caught this unique set, congratulations. If not, Orlando Weekly photographer Matt Keller Lehman documented it with his lens; see more online.

Three not-to-be-missed Morse Museum exhibits that aren’t Tiffany glass In recent months, Live Active Cultures has covered
the revival of theaters, theme parks and other forms of performing arts, but I’ve largely overlooked the post-pandemic progress of Orlando’s visual arts venues. I recently made amends by making my first visit in over a year to one of my favorite Winter Park institutions, the Charles Hosmer Morse Museum of American Art. COVID-19 has mandated some changes at the Morse, which now requires visitors to make online appointments in advance and enter the building through a side courtyard rather than on Park Avenue. However, the Morse’s marvelously intimate atmosphere has only been enhanced by social distancing measures, making it even easier to contemplate the elegant artifacts with ample elbow room. If you still only think of the Morse as home to the world’s greatest collection of Tiffany art glass, here are three exhibits added since the start of last year that may expand your image of the Morse. And best of all, if you hurry you can take advantage of the Morse’s final Friday of free admission on April 30; look under “Spring at the Morse” at admissions.morsemuseum.org for reservations. Watercolors From Louis Comfort Tiffany’s “Little Arcadia”
The Morse Museum’s newest ongoing exhibit gives exposure to Alice Carmen Gouvy (1863–1924) and Lillian A. Palmié (1873–1944), two of the unheralded female artists who designed ornaments for Louis Comfort Tiffany. These watercolor studies of skunk cabbages and eggplants are as evocative as any museum-quality still-life, but they were filed away for decades as mere working sketches, while the enamel objects they inspired were sold for thousands. “They’re large, they’re velvety, but even more so, they’re this primary document behind the scenes of creating Tiffany works of art,” says curator and collection manager Jennifer Thalheimer. “These [watercolors] were actually rescued through workers … people who, once they left Tiffany’s studios, they held on to the material that they worked with, because otherwise it was just going to [be lost].” The prosaic subjects reflect Tiffany’s interest in the post-Civil War aesthetic movement in art, which was about “embracing beauty and looking for it everywhere – in the minutiae, looking outside of America, looking anywhere you possibly could,” Thalheimer says. “And so even something as silly and mundane as a little cabbage flower would be something that would be worthy of inspection.” Selected Portraits From the Morse Collection
You’ve got until Sept. 26 to catch this collection of oil paintings and photographic portraiture. These artworks document the ways that class and technology changed how people preserved their own likeness during a three-century span before the arrival of digital cameras. Thalheimer says portraits once served as “a statement of place and importance” for the wealthy and powerful, prompting the question of who was worthy of such an expenditure of time, effort and money, but the democratization of film made family pictures more of a sentimental thing: a record, a memory.

“We went through history and gave a little bit of a rundown on the figures that are in here, and they’re really interesting people. It’s not only the painters but the sitters who are significant,” she adds, indicating William Merritt Chase’s Gilded Age portrait of Nabisco founder Sylvester S. Marvin, as well as a hundred-year-old headshot autographed to a fan by silent film star Julia Dean. “This photograph was in the Tiffany Studio study photograph collection, so somebody at the studios ‘appreciated’ Julia for it to find its way into that collection.” Chinese Blue and White Porcelain Vignette
Another recent long-term addition to the Morse is a display of antique Asian porcelain that were collected over a lifetime by late Orlando residents Dr. Benjamin L. and Nancy Abberger. The precious ceramics from Canton and Nanking, which were gifted to the Morse by the Abbergers’ heirs, are arrayed on shelves and tables behind glass, like the world’s largest curio cabinet. “This was their love, [and] over 40 years, they collected over 200 pieces of porcelain,” Thalheimer says. “They were constantly collecting, and lived with it. … It was everywhere, on every table, and I remember saying to their kids (who are now adults), ‘What was it like growing up in a place like this where there’s porcelain everywhere?’ And they said, ‘We were used to it.’” When the Morse was first offered the collection, Thalheimer says their initial reaction was to wonder whether they fit into the museum’s mission. “They’ve got really great pieces here, and they’re beautiful, but we’re an American art museum,” she says. “But the more that we thought about it, if you look at any period picture from that time period, the interior decorations, they all had blue and white then in their homes, every single one of them. It was such an important statement during the time coming out of the Civil War, escaping into this exotic world, and looking to other cultures for sanity and for a kind of peace.” After our own year of trauma, that’s an aesthetic impulse we can all empathize with. skubersky@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

THE ISRAEL DEAL
Kosher Grill presents a solid roster of Jewish and Middle Eastern staple fare BY FAIYAZ KARA
F
riends of mine have been making and creamy,” and certainly rarely in a good the trip down to Kosher Grill on way, but that’s precisely what the innards of International Drive on a semi-reg- the falafel were. The hue, in case you’re wondering, is the ular basis for one sole purpose: to indulge in their falafel. Knowing my appetite for result of a liberal use of parsley, and possibly the chickpea fritters, said friends encour- cilantro, but the falafel certainly lives up to aged me to join them one fine Sunday after the hype in every way. While I’m still partial the sabbath to scarf down a few of these to Maraya Restaurant’s fava-and-chickpea tasty buggers, along with other items from numbers, you won’t see me passing on Kosher Grill’s menu of Israeli fare. Not sur- Kosher Grill’s falafel. Or their hummus, prisingly, the casual, laid-back restaurant for that matter. Really, everything we sampled from the menu attracts Jewish patrons of pretense-free eats from all across the was done with aplomb, globe (even Miami!), so KOSHER GRILL and while I’m sure the it’s not often you’ll see 5615 International Drive spaghetti Bolognese a table full of goyim at 407-392-2292 ($19.95) and teriyaki Kosher Grill. koshergrillorlando.com stir-fry ($19.95) are all But there we were, $$ fine and well (apart wide-eyed and waggyfrom those tourist prictongued, gawking at es, oy!), we gravitated freshly fried falafel nested into a plate of hummus slicked with toward the restaurant’s Levantine dishes. Ay-yay-yay! This makluba I can’t get olive oil, dusted with paprika and flecked with parsley ($12.95). After scooping a bit of enough of, I found myself saying in my inner hummus onto a crispy ball, I took a bite and Sid Dithers voice. The rice dish ($19.95) isn’t looked inside the fried wonder. Now, it’s not served in the form of an upside-down cake, often I get to describe a digestible as “green as is traditional, but the blend of perfectly

cooked grains, caramelized onions, mushrooms and bits of chicken schnitzel added textural variation, while the sweet chiligarlic-pesto sauce lent the dish a luscious mouthfeel. Arayes ($24.95) are house-made pita stuffed with kefta kebab — grilled, seasoned beef patties — which are then cut into quarters, served with French fries and a tahini dip. Really nice. Three of us felt serving the pockets with a house-made hot sauce — a fiery zhug, perhaps — would make a real difference; one felt it was fine as is. Those kefta kebabs ($23.95) can be had with two sides — try the purple cabbage and bracing Israeli salad for a carb-free nosh. If there was a dish I wasn’t overly crazy about, it was the kibbeh ($9.95). While the beef filling was nicely spiced, the croquette’s casing was just too thick, more suited to a jalapeño popper than a delicate kibbeh. But it didn’t seem to bother the scores of patrons any — it’s a popular starter, this. As far as endings go, desserts here are all dairy-free in accordance with Judaic jurisprudence. In fact, the restaurant has been given the stamp of approval from the Rabbinate of Central and North Florida so, yeah, they take the “Kosher” in Kosher Grill very seriously. Now, there’ll be those who happen by the restaurant and hesitate to enter, thinking the place may be a bit too “Jewish” for them. To you benighted souls, I say this: Keep walking. Kosher Grill is no place to have a dinner for schmucks.
Bruno Zacchini, owner of Pizza Bruno and Bagel Bruno, will open a Venetianstyle bacaro called Cicchetti inside the resuscitated Orlando Milkhouse project on Bumby Avenue. The concept will offer small bites featuring regional specialties from all over Italy (not just Venice) and is expected to open later this summer. Bagel Bruno will also be a part of the Milkhouse, which is now being developed by Foxtail Coffee owners Alex Tchekmeian and Iain Yeakle. Itsa Chicken will offer chicken sandwiches, local outfit Kelly’s will provide the ice cream, and the team behind the Courtesy will operate a cocktail bar, with beer on tap coming from The Ravenous Pig Brewing Co. … The Hangry Dobo, a new Filipino restaurant offering everything from pineapple chicken to menudo to beef sinigang, has opened close to UCF at 12140 Collegiate Way, near the intersection of University Boulevard and Alafaya Trail … The world’s largest White Castle opens May 3 at the Village at O-Town West … Fish + Chips, a concept by Gordon Ramsay, will open at Icon Park this August … Three Birds Cafe, a cute new eatery serving breakfast, lunch and dinner, has opened on Plant Street in Winter Garden … Ava MediterrAegean, a sister restaurant to Mila MediterrAsian in South Beach, will open in the former Luma on Park space in Winter Park. Ava will spotlight cuisine from the Mediterranean and Cycladic Islands with flavors and colors of the Silk Road.

SHANGHAI LANE
It’s all about the soup dumplings at this West Colonial Drive Shanghainese joint, though the pan-fried pork buns, also filled with a porky broth, offer a more substantial and, arguably, more scalding, bite. Other notable dishes: sliced boiled chicken served with a soy-scallion-ginger dipping sauce, and the pork-and-cabbage noodle soup highlighted by pickled greens. Closed Tuesdays.

Inside the tastefully space-themed restaurant at the Celeste Hotel are some equally starry dishes fashioned by executive chef Mike Trudnak.

Elisabeth Moss in Season 4 of The Handmaid’s Tale PHOTO COURTESY HULU
ON (small) SCREENS IN ORLANDO Streaming premieres you won’t want to miss by Steve Schneider
PREMIERES WEDNESDAY:
PREMIERES FRIDAY:
The Handmaid’s Tale — Season 4 of the series you’re tired of referring to as “eerily prescient” includes three episodes directed by star Elisabeth Moss. Originally, she was only going to direct one, but a few opportunities sprang up due to the pandemic. You know, just like there’s going to be an opening any minute for a guitarist in Ted Nugent’s band. (Hulu)
The Disciple — Mumbai is the setting for a soul-searching drama about a vocalist who’s introduced to Indian classical music by his father but questions his own ability to excel in the art form. It’s like The Jazz Singer, but with imposter syndrome instead of Neil Diamond. (Netflix)
Headspace Guide to Sleep — Seven animated episodes teach you how to nod off when you need to. Wait a minute, does this mean Terrence Malick stopped making movies? (Netflix)
PREMIERES THURSDAY: Deadhouse Dark — You know those mystery boxes you can order that contain a bunch of tchotchkes themed to your particular hobbies and interests? Well, the protagonist of this six-episode series wishes she had never heard of ’em, because the box she got is full of indescribable supernatural horrors. So don’t feel bad if the worst you’ve had to put up with was a Hawkeye bumper sticker when you wanted an Ant-Man maquette. (Shudder) Looney Tunes Cartoons Season 1D — Strap in for 10 more animated shorts that have been scrubbed of the nasty gunplay of yesteryear. Because you’ll notice nobody shoots up their school anymore now that Elmer Fudd only carries a vape pen. (HBO Max) Things Heard & Seen — Amanda Seyfried and James Norton play a young couple who discover that the home they’ve purchased in New York state is as awash in terrible secrets as their marriage. See, this is why I rent. Partners, I mean. (Netflix) Yasuke — It’s Lakeith Stanfield voicing the title character in this historically based animated series about an African guy who served as a samurai in 16th-century Japan. I’m sure there’s a great joke in here somewhere, but I’m told anime should only punch up. (Netflix)
Marvel Studios Assembled: The Making of the Falcon and the Winter Soldier — Now that Season 1 is over, learn the production secrets behind the best-loved mixed-race buddy story since I Spy. (I was going to say Biden/Harris, but good luck figuring out if that’s punching up!) (Disney+) The Mitchells vs. the Machines — The great Phil Lord and Chris Miller (Spider-Man: Into the Spider-verse, The Lego Movie) bring us the story of an all-American family drawn into battle with evil robots intent on using our planet’s mechanical devices against us. Getting a surprising pass from Mom: that thing in her purse that looks like a big electric toothbrush and hums when you sit on it. (Netflix) Tom Clancy’s Without Remorse — The Hemingway of cryptofascist beach reads, the late Clancy now seems like a quaint throwback to the days when outwardly reasonable people actually believed that Russia was a direct threat to the American way of … oh, right. Listen, instead of admitting Clancy was ahead of his time, I’ll just note that this adaptation of his 1993 novel stars Michael B. Jordan, who also produced the thing and apparently did a bunch of his own stunts and stuff. Just don’t ask me what Clive Cussler thought about Syria. (Amazon Prime)
PREMIERES TUESDAY: Selena: The Series — In a fresh batch of episodes, Christian Serratos again plays the legendary Tejano singer who’d be alive today if only Elmer Fudd had used a Super Soaker. Have a great week, everybody! And keep punching sideways! (Netflix) orlandoweekly.com

LOCAL RELEASES
Last month, Orlando ambient maestro Danielfuzztone formally entered our consciousness with a strong and realized debut album (Thoughts & Abandonment) on Bandcamp. As expected given the enormous recorded backlog he’s amassed, it didn’t take long for more releases to follow. But, besides repping our city well with their substance, the inspiration for his two latest singles are maybe some of the most creative references to Orlando history ever. The most recent nod to Orlando’s past is the hilariously titled “Peter Murphy Always Cancels Twice.” Oh, remember that stretch of history-making folly from 2019? Those two consecutive Bauhaus abortions at the Plaza Live were a stranger-than-fiction series of events that cumulatively now live in Orlando music infamy, casting Murphy in the flame of effigy and David J in the glow of halo. The Bandcamp liner notes of the two-track single say it all: “For fun, Google ‘Peter Murphy’ and ‘Orlando.’” The other recent two-sided release that Danielfuzztone did — this time with local guitarist and accomplished rock poster designer Jeff Matz (of Lure Design) — is a deeper, darker dive into local history. A-side “Children of Sunland” is a reference to Sunland Mental Hospital, the ignominious and forsaken institution in West Orlando that was the local urban legend of its time. Known for abysmal conditions and patient mistreatment, Sunland — sometimes colloquially known as “Sunny Land” — was shut down in 1985 but sat there dark until its ultimate demolition 13 years later, i.e. the perfect number of years to

turn right around with the recent drop of another single just as good as the previous, possibly even better. Available on Bandcamp, “Icarus” is a choice exemplar of their heavy but melodic rock template. The current outpouring will continue for the next couple of months with new singles as they wrap up their next album.
LIVE MUSIC EVENTS
If you go out, respect everyone’s distance, for all our sakes. amass a reputation as the “haunted insane asylum” among those of impressionable age. “Children of Sunland” is an appropriately creeping and cinematic slow burn that would’ve perfectly soundtracked a journey through the abandoned hospital. Or at least, from what I’ve heard, since my friends and I absolutely, categorically did not go there ourselves one humid, moonless night because we are not, nor have we ever been, delinquents. Good times. Since attending concerts in person is still iffy business right now, some nice live energy can be safely enjoyed in the recent release by the endlessly likable Expert Timing. As spelled out in the title, Live in Stereo is a live recording of the Orlando trio at Pennsylvania studio Shards, and it’s a good snapshot of why their melodic, punk-spiked indie rock is a concert favorite. Available now on Bandcamp, the EP comprises four tracks and a sweetly scruffy cover of “Wait, Wait, Wait” by the Format. We finally heard a new song from Orlando band Copper Bones just last month after nearly five years of recorded silence. Now the gruesome twosome
Bengali 600: This Orlando band specializes in the kind of soul that keeps it close to the motherland, with perpetual grooves and an Afrobeat pulse that usually yields full body-moving results. Rounding out the vibes will be local ska band Florida Man and DJ Frankmatik. Shows at Will’s are still masked and limited capacity. (8:30 p.m. Friday, April 30, Will’s Pub, $10 in advance, $15 day of show, $40 table for four) Swans: Where Does a Body End? Local events promoter Modern Music Movement has teamed up with the film literati of Uncomfortable Brunch to bring an exclusive Florida screening of the 2019 documentary about primal noise-rock gods Swans, who are unquestionably one of the most monolithic bands alive. More than just a movie screening, the night will also pack a show with an opening live performance by harrowing Orlando act Alien Witch, about whom you’ve been hearing an inordinate amount here lately since they’re on a quantitative and qualitative tear in terms of music releases this year. The atmosphere’s gonna get heavy at this one. (8 p.m. Saturday, May 1, Will’s Pub, $10) baolehuu@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

“QUICKIES” I have a quick question about bisexuality. What if one has a preference for dating straight individuals? As a straight woman, I am only interested in dating straight men. Is that some kind of phobia? Or is it OK for that to be a preference? Nervously Asking Dan Something I think you’re fine, NADS, so long as you’ve taken a moment to think about why you’re burdened with this “preference.” Our sexual attractions, orientations and preferences are easily distorted and limited by prejudice. If you reflect on what might be at the root of your “preference” for men who are straight (or for men who’ll tell you they are), NADS, you might be able to open yourself up to more partners. But a person can reflect day and night for decades and still feel the same way. At the very least, we can all be thoughtful about our erotic and/ or sexual biases, take responsibility for them, be considerate about how we express them and — perhaps most importantly — do our best not to transmit them. I’m not into shame but not finding a particular group of people attractive for whatever reason is something we can keep to ourselves — not just to avoid doing harm to people we aren’t attracted to, but to avoid passing our erotic biases and limitations on to the next generation. My wife and I (lesbian moms together) have been invited to her cousin’s wedding. And she’s marrying the son of a former Republican statewide official who, in the early 2000s, turned the power of his state against gays, especially gay parents. His son hasn’t renounced his views — in fact, he’s converted his fiancée, my cousin-inlaw, to Trumpism. If it’s relevant, they’re more country-club homophobes than rednecks; they want to be seen as mainstream and pleasant, and they now live in a very liberal city and hide their views so they’re not pariahs. Not sure how to handle — simply not responding? Citing his father’s views in the RSVP? Never going to any family function where they will be, ever? I really don’t want my kid around these people, but also, I feel like maybe I should go to set an example. But then, wearing my best suit and tie to a Trump wedding deep in a red state makes me worried for my physical safety. What Would You Do? WWYD, I would send my regrets along with a broken toaster and the wrong receipt. I have a cult fascination with the film Withnail and I. OK, I love this film. But I am troubled by the perspective it offers on homosexuality. It’s not what one would call a “modern perspective.” I believe the film’s portrayal of homosexuality can be seen as funny, or alarming, or a cultural reference point; I think it’s all three. My son is gay, and with some introductory apologies, I
want to tell him to watch the film. Apologies for “trial ballooning” something like this with you, Mr. Savage, and I know you are not the standardissue gay, if such a thing exists. But have you seen the film? And if so, your thoughts? Friend Of Withnail I’ve never seen the film but a quick Google search of “Withnail and I” and “homophobic” brings up nearly 100,000 results. Apparently one of the film’s main characters (Uncle Monty) is a “predatory homosexual” who makes an unwelcome series of advances on one of the male leads. “Is the film homophobic? Yes, undoubtedly,” Philip Caveney writes at Bouquets & Brickbats. Richard Griffiths, the actor who plays Monty, “somehow manages to evoke genuine sympathy for a tragic character who is, more than anything else, lonely — but all the talk about buggery by force does make you feel rather uncomfortable.” The film was released in 1987 — which in no way excuses the homophobia, of course, but you’d be hardpressed to find a popular film released in 1987 that wasn’t deeply homophobic either by the hateful portrayal of gay characters or by the complete absence of gay characters. Still, the film doesn’t portray homosexuality, FOW; it portrays an individual homosexual. It was doubtless a damaging portrayal at the time, as there were so few other representations of gay characters on TV or in film back then. But viewed now, when there are more representations of gay people in film and television than ever before, it doesn’t have the power to do the same damage. So go ahead and recommend the film to your son, FOW, with the appropriate qualifiers. I just got dumped in a pretty brutal and inconsiderate way by a guy I really liked. He didn’t want to tell me it was over, he just pulled away and left me to figure it out on my own. We were dating for a year and he even started dating someone else and didn’t bother to inform me. I feel depressed and really sad because I still like him and I miss him and I don’t know what to do. Sad And Depressed Over New Ending If he broke up with you like that … you didn’t like him. Not really. You liked the idea of him you formed in your head. He gave you the outline of a decent guy and you filled that outline in with everything you hoped he was: a kind, loving, decent guy who was as into you as you were into him. Or at the very least, a guy who cared enough about your feelings to end things in a considerate manner. You can and should feel sad about losing the guy you hoped he was, but don’t feel sad about losing the guy he turned out to be. Because that guy was an asshole. I was just listening to Savage Lovecast Episode 750 and you were responding to a fella
who was ejaculating sooner than he would like. I wanted to say that I (a woman) had a male partner who always came twice. Once was quick and he played it cool, and just owned that that was how he operated. We switched to a new condom and could go for much longer the second time! Own it, guys! No need for shame about your body’s functionality. Come And Come Again It’s good advice for men who suffer from premature ejaculation — don’t try to stop that first orgasm and you’re likely to last longer as you build to a second — but that advice works better for younger men with shorter refractory periods. The older a man gets, the longer his refractory period becomes; if your partner’s second orgasm took 12-24 hours to arrive, well, that’s a long time to wait. Older guys with premature ejaculation might want to try lowdose SSRIs, i.e., antidepressants; one of the side effects of SSRIs is delayed ejaculation and studies have shown that they are a pretty effective treatment for PE. I saw your response to DTFOMBNB, the gay man who wanted an emotionally intimate, sexless relationship and the freedom to seek casual sex elsewhere. You mentioned asexuals and cucks as potential partners for the intimate-but-sexless-relationship part, Dan, but I wanted to mention another possibility: I’m a gay guy in my 50s and I learned relatively late in life that I have Asperger’s syndrome. That diagnosis was part of what resulted from my first long-term cohabiting relationship, during which I found that I couldn’t manage intense emotional intimacy and physical intimacy at the same time. I loved my boyfriend and cherished the conversations, cuddling, traveling, etc. But adding sexual intimacy on top of all that just felt overwhelming. I can’t say that my experience reflects those of all people with autism, but to me, what DTFOMBNB describes is similar to how I’ve envisioned any future relationship I might enter into. The bad news is that pretty much all of the relationship-oriented guys I’ve encountered on dating sites are looking for a relationship that combines emotional and sexual intimacy, so it’s not an easy ask. But there are definitely men like me out there looking for what DTFOMBNB wants. A Sexual Partnership Isn’t Essential Considering how many people wind up in sexless relationships, ASPIE, it stands to reason that some non-insignificant percentage of the population wants a sexless relationship. But so long as guys like you and DTFOMBNB assume no one else could possibly want what you’re offering, you’re going to have a hard time finding each other. mail@savagelove.net orlandoweekly.com

Meet Diamond! Diamond (A465720) is an 11-yearold spayed dog who has been at our shelter for over 55 days, and we hope she will be in a new home soon. She was surrendered by her previous owner because she did not get along with the cat and dog in the home, but she’s very affectionate with people. Diamond takes treats gently, enjoys being petted all over and would make a wonderful new addition to your home. Our standard adoption fees are $40 for cats and $55 for dogs, which includes the spay/neuter, initial vaccines and microchip, but our April adoption promotion reduces adoption fees to just $20 for the entire month! We’re celebrating the popular series Law and Order and its many spinoffs with Paw and Order. We encourage you to find and adopt the Stabler to your Benson. Orange County Animal Services is located at 2769 Conroy Road in Orlando, near the Mall at Millenia. The shelter is open 10 a.m.-6 p.m. Monday through Saturday and 1-5 p.m. Sunday.
