¶ DeSantis has failed Florida “bigly” The hyperpartisan rhetoric Gov. DeSantis proliferates on the national and local stage is destroying America and the concept of mutual respect. Putting it in the words of his hero from Mar-a-Lago, his tenure as governor “is a beautiful, I mean I never seen such a beautiful” failure. Average America is done being politically correct, done listening to talking points, and we should make decisions, encourage debate and challenge leaders who are so out of touch with reality and the average person. So, in particular, I challenge Ron DeSantis, (who is not worthy of the title of Governor even though he won it, most likely as the choice between the lesser of two evils) to man up — mandate masks and encourage the vaccine. DeSantis has decided to rely on the Trump base support and depict an “oasis of freedom” in Florida, all while his constituents and residents are falling ill and dying from his lack of leadership and focus on the health safety and welfare of the state. For many, he has lost a trust he never really had. For others, they blindly follow his rhetoric from the bully pulpit — made the new norm in politics by our former president. DeSantis has politicized nearly every issue related to COVID. He has politicized masks, the vaccine, school reopenings, lockdowns and unemployment, among other issues. Politicized rather than expressing empathy for both sides of the aisle and working to find a compromise which serves all interests. Yet, DeSantis exceeded his executive authority and acted with criminal negligence — intentional, willful and wanton conduct to the detriment of the residents of Florida. Rather than act as a uniter for the common benefit, he decided to divide with hyper-partisan rhetoric. Is it criminal? The circumstantial evidence of secret meetings and reliance on “quack” doctors certainly advance the logical inferences a jury could use to come to a guilty verdict. How about instead of posing for a photo op at a small business restaurant in Florida, he takes a photo outside a hospital and impress upon the citizens of the state that COVID needs ‘TOO LATE’
to be taken seriously. Unfortunately, that does not support his narrative and only reinforces the lack of respect he demonstrates for authority. If acts disrespectful, his supporters mimic that disrespect toward authority and other citizens. Whether you believe in the pandemic or not, there is no denying the fact that nearly all hospitalized individuals with COVID currently are the unvaccinated. Everyone has a right to do what they want with their body and if they want to refrain from taking the vaccine, that is their right. However, the refusal to receive the vaccine has associated consequences. If employers want to require a vaccine for their employees, so be it. If small businesses want to require masks, so be it. If a local community wants to enforce mask mandates because local leaders realize it is necessary to protect the health, safety and welfare of the community, let them. A governor cannot usurp the authority of local leaders — not all communities are the same and we are not a one size fits all state or nation. The sole reason DeSantis does not want localities to be able to enforce mandates is because it hurts his narrative and rhetoric. The little darling of Trump and Fox News is taking a beating from other outlets and society in general for his reluctance to admit a mistake and take steps to protect the citizens. The thirst for fame and power is an Achilles’ heel. He openly mocks masks and the CDC directives while at the same time failing to acknowledge the resurgence of the virus and this delta variant in his state. Wake up, Governor! Mark my words, DeSantis and Florida will become the butt of the nation. The punchline of a COVID joke. A governor more concerned with his next speech or small business restaurant photo op, rather than protecting his state’s residents. I am not a proponent of lockdowns or closures. Those are not the solution. I know the mask is uncomfortable, but I wear a mask for my fellow citizens and residents. I wear the masks for your children, your parents, your grandparents, your family; not for me. I wear it out of respect for society, whether I know you or not. Mark Kaley, Winter Garden BY CLAY JONES

NEW NE WS DELTA DISCUSSION DIES IN DARKNESS DeSantis holds roundtable discussion with no public notice and no media allowed BY RYAN DAILEY, N SF
G
ov. Ron DeSantis quietly held a roundtable discussion last week at the Capitol that focused on opposition to mask mandates in schools during the COVID-19 pandemic. DeSantis’ office did not give prior notice to the public and excluded reporters from the meeting. Similar events in the past have been open to the media and broadcast by the Florida Channel, a state-funded service that covers myriad government meetings. Last week’s panel discussion was recorded by the governor’s staff and posted to DeSantis’ online video-streaming platform of choice, Rumble. The event was held as hospitals across the state saw sharp increases in COVID19 patients because of the Delta variant of the coronavirus and lagging vaccination rates. Meanwhile, Florida students are preparing for the school year to begin in a matter of weeks. “We in Florida, to this point, our school districts have proposed mask-optional (policies),” DeSantis said in a video of the meeting published last Tuesday. “But I think our fear is that, seeing some of those rumblings, that there’d be an attempt from the federal level or even some of these organizations to try to push for mandatory masking of school children.” White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki has said that President Joe Biden’s administration is following guidance from the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on masks in schools. The CDC issued new guidelines last Tuesday advising that all people, including those who are fully vaccinated, wear masks in schools and areas of “substantial or high” transmission. The federal government has not mandated masks in schools.
CDC Director Rochelle Walensky told reporters that “new science related to the Delta variant” of the coronavirus prompted the change. Guidelines released July 9 said children younger than 12 should wear masks in schools, because they remain ineligible for vaccination. One of the roundtable participants was Jay Bhattacharya, a professor of medicine at Stanford University whom the governor called on last year to support his position on keeping schools open for inperson instruction during the pandemic. “I don’t think the Delta variant changes the calculus or the evidence in any fundamental way, governor,” Bhattacharya said when asked by DeSantis if the highly transmissible variant should change the state’s approach to masks in schools. Cody Meissner, chief of Tufts University’s Division of Pediatric Infectious Disease, also participated in the event and argued that wearing a mask is “not a very effective way of preventing disease.” Los Angeles-based clinical psychiatrist Mark McDonald argued during the event that “masking children is child abuse.”
“The constitutional right of access requires meetings of any public body of the executive branch of state government to be open and noticed to the public. “If the meeting was just Gov. Ron DeSantis and health experts, this would not necessarily violate the constitutional right of access or Sunshine Law. “That said, the Sunshine Law is meant to frustrate all evasive devices,” Virginia Hamrick, a staff attorney with the organization, said in an email to the News Service. But Hamrick said DeSantis impeded the public’s ability to be informed of government actions by excluding the media from attending. “By being present at meetings, journalists can inform the public of the government’s agenda and decisions. Holding a meeting without notice and without the press makes it more difficult for the public to be informed of and oversee the actions of their government. “This is true all of the time, but especially when COVID-19 cases are rising and school districts, teachers and parents must make decisions affecting the health of students and staff,” Hamrick said.
Christina Pushaw, a spokeswoman for the governor, said the DeSantis administration is increasingly using Rumble as its platform of choice after a previous roundtable discussion event, featuring Bhattacharya, was removed from YouTube. “We recorded the entire roundtable discussion to post on Rumble so it’s accessible to media and the general public. We generally use Rumble for public videos these days, after experiencing censorship from YouTube several months ago,” Pushaw said in an email to the News Service of Florida. Pushaw said DeSantis “is always seeking out perspectives from experts, like Dr. Bhattacharya, on COVID-19 and other pressing issues.” The Tallahassee-based First Amendment Foundation said last week that DeSantis’ exclusion of reporters from the event didn’t violate Florida’s Sunshine Law on open government.
First Amendment Foundation: DeSantis ‘impeded the public’s ability to be informed of government actions’ by excluding the media from attending. DeSantis also invited an incoming senior from a Tallahassee private school, the mother of two students at a Tallahassee charter school and head of a Jacksonville charter school to participate.

President Joe Biden and Sen. Shelley Moore Capito, R-W.Va., meet in the Oval Office to discuss passing the infrastructure bill OFFICIAL WHITE HOUSE PHOTO BY ADAM SCHULTZ
A DEAL AT WHAT COST? Biden paid an awful lot for those Republican infrastructure votes BY JEFFREY C. BILL M A N
We have a deal!
Unless something goes pear-shaped. Unless House Democrats remember that they, too, were elected to play a role in the lawmaking process instead of rubber-stamping the dictates of a handful of senators. Unless Senate progressives think Joe Manchin or Kyrsten Sinema is going to stab them in the back on the forthcoming $3.5 billion reconciliation vote — the real prize — and opt not to be played for fools. Unless enough senators realize that the bipartisan coalition is sufficiently fragile to need every vote it can get, and start tacking on wish lists of expensive demands for their home states. Unless Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell finds an excuse to convince his caucus to blow up the deal at the last minute and blame Joe Biden or Nancy Pelosi or Chuck Schumer. Any of those things could happen. But odds are they won’t. Any Democrat who screws this up will soon find themselves wandering the wilderness. And McConnell doesn’t want to give Democrats an excuse to nix the filibuster when the White House caved on nearly every Republican demand. So we have a deal — a 2,702-page bill. The White House has the bipartisan achievement Biden’s lusted after like a teenager on prom night — and the infrastructure package Donald Trump could never pull off. It’s a political win. It will be applauded by pundits and used by institutionalists as evidence that Washington Is Not Broken.
“It has been decades — decades — since Congress passed such a significant, stand-alone investment,” an ebullient Schumer proclaimed. The deal “makes the most significant long-term investment in our infrastructure and competitiveness in nearly a century,” enthused White House senior adviser Mike Donilon. In a memo, Donilon, Biden’s 2020 campaign strategist, laid out why bipartisanship was good, citing polls showing that people, in general, thought bipartisanship was good. “[The] bipartisan agreement is an important signal to voters that they’re being heard and that their government can work as they think it should,” Donilon wrote, “with elected officials from both sides of the aisle coming together to address the concerns that matter most in their lives.” We should acknowledge what those Republican votes cost. Biden’s proposal, released in March, called for $2.6 trillion in new spending. The bipartisan infrastructure plan has $550 billion in new spending, just 21 percent of the original. Biden proposed a $566 billion investment in research and development and manufacturing, which included research grants to historically Black colleges and universities and investments in climate change and energy research; $387 billion for housing, schools and buildings, including desperately needed upgrades for public housing and modernizing public schools; and $400 billion for home- and community-based care, which would have raised wages for home health care workers for the elderly and those with
disabilities. The compromise provided no funding in any of these categories. Biden also sought $363 billion for clean energy tax credits, $157 billion for electric vehicles and $77 billion for public transit — potentially huge advancements in the fight against climate change — as well as $111 billion in water infrastructure (including funds to replace all lead pipes) and $24 billion to reconnect disinvested, largely minority communities that have been separated from downtowns or other important areas by major highways or bridges. The compromise spends zilch on clean energy, $39 billion on public transit, $15 billion on electric vehicles, $55 billion on water infrastructure and just $1 billion on community reconnection. For good measure, the deal also requires cities and states applying for federal credits for large transportation projects to commission a study on whether a private partnership — usually meaning a private entity gives the money for the road, then collects tolls — makes sense. In short, Republicans forced Democrats to ignore racial inequity and climate change because they weren’t “real” infrastructure — and, more importantly, funding them would require taxing rich people or even funding the IRS to stop rich people from cheating on their taxes. Both of those were deal-killers. Instead, the bipartisan groups found $550 billion in pay-fors by rummaging through congressional couch cushions for loose change: unused COVID funds, refunded unemployment supplements, money from cryptocurrency reporting, “$2.9 billion from extending available interest rate smoothing options for defined benefit pension plans.” To be sure, $550 billion isn’t chump change. But the infrastructure bill sacrificed results for aesthetics. That poses an interesting political question: Midterms are all about turnout, and they always favor the opposition’s straightforward message: Throw the bums out. It’s harder to rally the troops in defense of messy compromises that resulted from legislative slogs. Progressives argue that the way to reverse the trend is to deliver big legislation. As Sen. Bernie Sanders told CNN shortly after Biden’s inauguration, “What history tells us is that when [Bill] Clinton won in ’92, two years later, the Democrats didn’t do as much as they should have. They got swept out by the Republicans.” Biden came out swinging with the $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan. His $3.5 trillion budget planned for later this year is similarly ambitious. But there’s no guarantee it will pass unscathed, and Republicans carved up his infrastructure plan while he cheered from the Oval. There are reasons to think the White House played this right. A bipartisan bill will be harder for Republicans to attack next year. And while voters care more about results than process, the moderate white suburbanites who found their way to Biden’s coalition during Trump’s presidency — likely voters, no less — might well think a bill is better if both parties sign off on it. Most important, the key provisions excised from the infrastructure bill — climate change and health care, among others — can be folded into the budget and passed with a majority. If Biden pulls that off, his first year in office will be ranked among the most momentous since FDR. If he fails, Democrats will have squandered a golden opportunity in pursuit of aesthetics.

Déjà vu all over again A week in the life of a state whose leaders seem determined to stymie common sense precautions BY RYA N DA ILY, N SF, A N D A L EX G A L BR A I TH
C
oronavirus cases are surging, local officials are discussing precautions about masks and vaccines and Gov. Ron DeSantis is scrambling to protect personal choice — it feels like Florida has been here before. The Delta variant of the coronavirus continues to sweep across the state and the nation, with Florida responsible for about one in five of the country’s new COVID-19 cases in recent days, according to data from the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. At least two counties that have seen sharp upticks in cases, Leon and Orange, issued requirements this week for county employees to be vaccinated. “This is very simple and very serious. As an employer, we are required to provide a safe work environment for employees, and unvaccinated employees pose a significant risk to spread the virus,” Leon County Administrator Vince Long said in a memo distributed to employees. In addition to requiring vaccinations for county workers, Orange County is mandating that employees wear masks in indoor county facilities. County Mayor Jerry Demings also urged residents to wear masks in public indoor settings. Demings declared a local state of emergency Wednesday while announcing 1,371 new coronavirus cases on the day, which he said was an “all-time high.”
The CDC issued new guidelines last week advising that all people, including those who are fully vaccinated, wear masks in areas of “substantial or high” transmission. CDC Director Rochelle Walensky told reporters that “new science related to the Delta variant” prompted the change. While local leaders grapple with ways to boost lagging vaccination rates, data showed that just 48.7 percent of the state’s population was fully vaccinated as of Wednesday, July 28. —RD
GLOVES OFF OVER SCHOOL MASKING About a week ago, DeSantis began floating the idea of calling a special legislative session if the federal government tried to mandate masks for school children — but it was local officials who made the first such move. The Broward County School Board last week voted to mandate masks for students, but most other districts throughout the state aren’t expected to adopt similar policies. DeSantis then issued an executive order Friday directing the Florida Department of Education and the Department of Health to issue emergency rules protecting the rights

of parents to make decisions about children wearing masks. (Editor’s note: As we went to press on Monday, Broward County reversed their decision following the executive order.) “I have young kids. My wife and I are not going to do the mask thing with the kids,” DeSantis said during an event at Two Meatballs in the Kitchen restaurant in Cape Coral. “We never have. I want to see my kids smiling. I want them having fun.” The federal government has not mandated masks in schools, but the CDC’s guidance last Tuesday recommended that teachers, students and school staff members mask up, as Florida sees major increases in COVID-19 because of the highly transmissible Delta variant of the coronavirus. The Florida Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics on Thursday called for the “universal” use of masks in schools. In part, the new executive order directs state Education Commissioner Richard Corcoran to withhold funds to “noncompliant” school boards that impose mask requirements. DeSantis’ executive order requires the state Department of Education and the Florida Department of Health to work together to ensure COVID-19 safety protocols in schools don’t “violate Floridians’ constitutional freedoms” or parents’ rights to make health care decisions for their children. The order directs the state agencies to protect “children with disabilities or health conditions who would be harmed by certain protocols such as face masking requirements.” The Florida Education Association is opposing the governor’s executive order. “Unfortunately, through his words and actions, Gov. DeSantis has made clear he does not respect the freedom of locally elected officials to do what they feel is best for their communities,” the statewide teachers union said in a statement. —RD
FIDDLING WHILE ROME BURNS The state’s top executive, who seems concerned with just about everything but the state’s dire coronavirus outbreak, was in Salt Lake City over the weekend to speak at a conservative policy conference. While speaking at the American Legislative Exchange Council, DeSantis mocked the CDC’s recent recommendations of face masks for all individuals gathered indoors. “Did you not get the CDC’s memo? I don’t see you complying,” DeSantis said to the cheers of the 400-plus attendees. He went on to rail against the idea of mandates from the government to stem the spread of coronavirus. “It is very important that we say unequivocally ‘no to lockdowns, no to school closures, no to restrictions and no to mandates,’” he said. DeSantis also expressed a fear of a “Faucian dystopia,” a reference to federal coronavirus response head Dr. Anthony Fauci. DeSantis has previously railed against the top doc, going so far as to sell branded campaign merch that mocks Fauci’s masking recommendations. The speech came as Orange County declared a state
of emergency over the rapid spread of the virus. At press time, Florida was home to one in every five new coronavirus cases in the United States. —AG
DELTA BLUES Florida congressional representative and purported sex pest Rep. Matt Gaetz mocked the Delta variant of COVID-19 as it raged through his home state. At a rally in Brevard County over the weekend — while his boss was in Utah — Gaetz poked fun at masking recommendations while Florida set new highs for daily numbers of cases and hospitalizations. Speaking to a maskless crowd at the Hilton Melbourne Beach Oceanfront hotel for his “Florida Man Freedom Tour,” Gaetz downplayed the threat of the virus that is rampaging through the area. Gaetz told the crowd he had the “Florida variant,” whose symptoms include “hunting, fishing and hugging your family.” For the record, a quick Google image search of “Matt Gaetz holding gun” returns no relevant results. The same definitely can’t be said of his partner in conservative trolling Marjorie Taylor Greene. He updated the applause line a bit for a later speech in Largo, saying that the variant gave him freedom. At the first rally, Gaetz called Dr. Anthony Fauci a “sniveling little twit” before reviving an ancient political phrase to discuss the CDC’s change of heart on face mask policy: He said the agency was “flip-flopping” on its masking stance (as opposed to responding to the unmitigated spread in places like Florida). At the same time that Gaetz was holding his rally, Florida was sharing record-breaking COVID-19 numbers. The state reported a new high in coronavirus cases on Saturday, with over 21,000 infections recorded the day prior. On Sunday, the state reported a new high for hospitalizations with 10,207 people across the state admitted for coronavirus complications. —AG
DISNEY, UNIVERSAL & PUBLIX Just days after the park announced the return of indoor mask mandates for all guests, Walt Disney World shared that all of its employees will be required to get vaccinated against COVID-19. “At the Walt Disney Company, the safety and wellbeing of our employees during the pandemic has been and continues to be a top priority,” the company shared in a statement on Friday. “Toward that end, and based on the latest recommendations of scientists, health officials and our own medical professionals that the COVID-19 vaccine provides the best protection against severe infection, we are requiring that all salaried and non-union hourly employees in the U.S. working at any of our sites be fully vaccinated.” Disney is giving employees 60 days to be fully vaccinated. In addition, the park shared that all new employees will need to be fully vaccinated before their start date. The statements came shortly after Orange County Mayor Jerry Demings announced a vaccine requirement for non-union government employees, though recent
moves by the Florida Legislature and Gov. DeSantis have made it difficult for any government entity to require COVID-19 mitigation. Universal Studios Orlando and Publix have both also shared new guidelines — not regarding vaccinations nor affecting guests, but requiring their employees to mask up. The Publix mandate went into effect Monday. All employees are now required to wear masks while inside their stores. Universal Studios Orlando’s mask mandate for employees will start this Saturday. Neither business has announced plans to require customers to wear masks. —AG
BLACK MIRROR Local hospital groups are reeling due to the ongoing surge of COVID-19 cases in Florida. Citing the uptick in coronavirus cases being handled by the hospital system, AdventHealth last week updated their operating procedures to “black status,” under which all non-emergency surgeries are indefinitely postponed. In a statement shared with *Orlando Weekly*, AdventHealth noted that they were seeing well beyond their former January peak of coronavirus hospitalizations. The hospital hopes to focus resources on treatment and containment of those effected by the virus in Central Florida. “Cases continue to rise sharply with no sign that the surge is beginning to decelerate,” said Dr. Neil Finkler, chief clinical officer of AdventHealth’s Central Florida Division. “This important step will help us create more resources for our clinical teams, and ensure that we can continue to care for our community.” On the morning of this announcement, DeSantis held a news conference in Cape Coral where he doubled down on his promises to stop any mandates aimed at slowing the spread of the virus. —AG
HARD PASS ON PASSPORTS The Florida Department of Health last week published a proposed rule that would carry out a new law allowing the state to levy $5,000 fines against businesses, government agencies and educational institutions that violate a ban on so-called COVID-19 “vaccine passports.” The proposed rule also would require that the fines be paid within 30 days unless indicated otherwise in a final order. DeSantis has made a priority of blocking businesses and other entities from requiring people to show proof of vaccination — the concept known as vaccine passports. DeSantis issued an executive order on the issue in April, and the Legislature subsequently passed a bill putting the ban in state law. Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings has filed a federal lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of the ban, as the company says it should be able to require passengers to show proof of vaccination. The Department of Health published the proposed rule last Friday as the numbers of COVID-19 infections in the state spiral upward because of the highly contagious Delta variant of the virus. —RD

Vicious Dreams Uncle Lou’s Saturday, July 31
P
unk trio Vicious Dreams were finally able to throw a record release party for their 2020 self-titled LP, and they did it in high Orlando underground style. Opening were local legends Wet Nurse and Dougie Flesh & the Slashers, and the show went down in the hallowed halls of Uncle Lou’s. Much sweaty celebration ensued. Let’s hope we can keep having shows like this. Jim Leatherman got the bird’s-eye view. See all the photos at orlandoweekly.com.

A rendering of the Rollins Museum of Art as it might appear in its new location
MOVIN’ ON UP
Rollins’ Cornell Fine Arts Museum will change its name this fall, and eventually move into a larger space off campus BY NELLY ON TIVER OS C ERVA N T ES
R
ollins College’s Cornell Fine Arts Museum is changing its name in September, as the first step toward moving the museum into a new home in downtown Winter Park. Once completed, the new Rollins Museum of Art will be located one block off Park Avenue, at the intersection of Interlachen and New England avenues across from the Alfond Inn, where part of Rollins’ contemporary art collection is already exhibited. CFAM Director Dr. Ena Heller told Orlando Weekly that the new endeavor will give the museum a larger platform and more visibility. The new facility, featuring larger galleries, an auditorium and a café, will also include an education center with programs for students K-12 and several study rooms for college students. These rooms
will allow more students to have access to the museum’s collection for class activities, seminars and research, according to Heller. Heller added that the expansion will make learning accessible for the public, something she said was necessary as the Cornell is the only academic art museum in the greater Orlando area. “We serve not only the Rollins faculty and students, but we also work increasingly with students from UCF and Valencia [College],” Heller said. “We want to establish the new museum as an important resource for the other colleges and universities in our area that do not have their own museum.” Winter Park spokeswoman Clarissa Howard said the new building will contribute to the city’s vision of being a center of “culture and heritage” while

gifting something invaluable to residents. “Within 10 square miles we have over 17 nonprofit arts and culture organizations in our city limits,” Howard said. “This new Rollins Museum of Art will add to our already diverse cultural amenities.” According to a press release announcing the move, the Cornell’s visitor count has more than quadrupled over the last decade. The museum’s new location is expected to aid this trend while keeping a close connection to Rollins. “The Rollins Museum of Art can, and will, serve a wider and more diverse community, while at the same time emphasizing its unique characteristics as the only teaching museum in greater Orlando, embodying our college’s mission and values,” said Rollins College President Grant Cornwell in a press release. Visitors will be able to visit exhibitions at no cost year-round. More information on CFAM’s summer events can be found on its website at cfam.rollins.edu. The name change will go into effect immediately, so expect to hear about the Rollins Museum of Art’s fall season soon. arts@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

There’s only one thing that would get me back on a cruise ship: the world’s first rollercoaster at sea
Almost exactly 10 years ago, I
set sail on my first-ever cruise aboard the since-scrapped Carnival Sensation and found that “bargain-basement vacation” to be better than I expected. However, after experiencing a few of its competitors, and suffering through a second Carnival cruise full of indifferent service and inebriated passengers, I swore to never again set foot on one of their ships. With the COVID19 Delta variant surging in Florida, this would seem to be an unlikely time to violate that vow, and an even less opportune time to launch a brand-new megaship. But Carnival is charging out of the pandemic with last weekend’s inaugural sailing of the massive Mardi Gras, which boasts the only thing that could inspire me to drive out to Port Canaveral right now: the world’s first roller-coaster at sea. Like most modern cruise ships, the Carnival Mardi Gras is home to an array of onboard activities that go way beyond shuffleboard, from a charming mini-golf course to a challenging ropes climb, but the ship’s headline attraction is Bolt, billed as the “Ultimate Sea Coaster.” Ever since I saw the two-seat ride vehicle — which resembles a jet-ski more than a coaster car — unveiled at IAAPA in 2019, I’ve been itching to experience this one-of-a kind thrill, and I was lucky enough to be one of the very first members of the general public to enjoy it. Unfortunately, Bolt frankly failed to live up to my elevated expectations. The singlerail track wraps only around the rear of the boat, providing a good view of the kiddie splash pad but not so much the open sea. Front-seat riders can control their speed (up to 37 mph) using a motorcycle-style throttle and boost button, and I got a nice burst of acceleration right out of the gate, but the powered coaster seemed to hesitate repeatedly through its brief 720-foot course and never generates the sensation
THE BOLT COASTER ON CARNIVAL’S MARDI GRAS | PHOTO BY SETH KUBERSKY
of gravity-driven momentum you’d expect from a coaster; instead, it feels more like a fast monorail. Bolt would be worth trying once or twice for the novelty, but Carnival is charging $15 per ride, whereas the water coasters on Disney’s ships — which I enjoyed more — are included. I certainly wouldn’t book a cruise based around it, considering the ride shut down for hours shortly after my one lap. Although its hyped E-ticket is a misfire, the Mardi Gras does feature a number of upgrades over older Carnival vessels that could inform future land-locked attractions. First and foremost, it’s the first cruise ship in the Americas powered by liquefied natural gas, which Carnival touts as a more climate-friendly alternative to other fossil fuels. New technology also impacts the guest experience from the minute you enter the terminal and get scanned for a remarkably efficient facial recognition entry system, not dissimilar to the one rumored to be replacing traditional turnstiles at the upcoming Epic Universe park. And once on board, Carnival’s updated smartphone app can provide everything from food and drink delivery to virtual queuing in an effort to promote social distancing. That was far from the only indication of the ongoing pandemic during the preview for press and travel agents that I attended on the day before Mardi Gras’ launch. Digital signage reminding guests to sanitize is omnipresent, and I had to fill out multiple health declarations and show my vaccination card before even approaching the gangplank. Hand-washing stations are also ubiquitous, thankfully, as the ship’s numerous sliding doors require a fingerprint to open. However, thanks to Gov.
DeSantis, Carnival must permit unvaccinated guests to sail from Florida (with testing and insurance requirements), and can only mandate that unvaccinated passengers remain masked indoors. With health officials recommending everyone mask up indoors regardless of vaccination status, I’m surprised Carnival hasn’t followed Walt Disney World and required masks for all for the sake of consistent enforcement. I chose to remain masked (making me the distinct minority) but I made an exception in order to sample dishes from a dozen of the ship’s restaurants, all of them far more creative and delicious than what I remember from my past Carnival cruises. Ultimately, the one thing that Carnival doesn’t seem to have significantly updated is their aesthetic, which was what I dinged them for most heavily a decade ago. The ship’s atrium is a perfect example: It sports a stunning array of spinning LED screens that can slide away to expose floor-to-ceiling windows, but it’s positioned off to the side, robbing arrivals of a “wow” reveal, and is bathed in a garish mishmash of color palettes that makes Mardi Gras feel more like a shopping mall (albeit an upscale one) than the coherently themed resort it aspires to be. More importantly, the atrium stage’s content is slickly produced but utterly generic, with no memorable characters (beyond the grating kilt-clad cruise director) to create an emotional connection with. Curiously, I spotted Universal Parks CEO Tom Williams at the roller-coaster’s ribbon cutting. Bolt may be a bust, but if Carnival could strike a deal to use Universal’s intellectual property, it might give Mardi Gras and her sisters ammo to battle Disney’s ever-expanding fleet. skubersky@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

THE MONROE 448 N. Terry Ave. 407-734-2102 themonroeorlando.com $$$

The Monroe in Creative Village is a paradigm of modern comfort, in design and cuisine BY FAIYAZ KARA
I
t’s hard to overlook the contribution Asian Americans have made in moving our restaurant scene out of the dark ages of the ’90s and early aughts and into an era of culinary enlightenment. Johnny and Jimmy Tung, Henry Moso, Hoi Nguyen, Lewis Lin, Nora Jain and Chau Trinh have all been instruments of positive change, but Jason and Sue Chin, the power couple behind some of the most well-received restaurants in the city have arguably wielded the most influence. Their latest, the Monroe, isn’t just their most accessible, it’s their most fetching, and if you’ve been to Seito Sushi, the Osprey and Reyes Mezcaleria, you know that’s saying a lot. Sue’s design prowess in transforming a cavernous shell on the ground floor of the newly built Julian Apartments into a plush and stunning sanctuary of midcentury modernity shows. Its size reminded me of the now-shuttered Manufactory in DTLA, but the way the Monroe has been spiffed and furnished is unparalleled. Is there a more handsome restaurant in the city? I can’t think of one. And is there a more handsome chef in the city than Josh Oakley? You bet there is, but the man does make some beautiful food, none more so than the fried chicken. He brines Bell &
Evans chicken overnight before breading it in White Lily flour — “it’s the Duke’s Mayo of flours,” he says — and what comes out of the fryer, be it thigh ($6), leg ($6), breast ($8) or wing ($10), is pure gold. Well, golden brown. Oakley, of course, is no stranger to our food universe, having garnered a legion of devotees at the Smiling Bison for its Lil-Indies-meets-Ravenous-Pig vibe. Even after moving ops to Sanford, then leaving the Bison for 1921 Mount Dora, Oakley’s wheelhouse has been in the realm of feelgood fare. It’s of the approachably “modern” sort at the Monroe, and that works well in this Parramore restaurant named after Dr. William “Monroe” Wells, the man who opened the historic Wells’ Built Hotel in the neighborhood back in 1926 for African American travelers. That comfort is cooked into Oakley’s menu makes it all the more fitting. He gets playful with chicken waffles ($14) — not chicken and waffles, mind you, but soft, springy waffles literally made of chicken and served with hot honey mustard. The Shake ’N Bake ham chop ($21) is another one to induce smiles and grunts of approval. On a recent visit, however, I noticed it was replaced with a BBQ Florida salmon ($24).
BY FAIYAZ KARA OPENINGS Soupa Saiyan, the popular Dragon
That’s right, salmon humanely and sustainably raised in a “bluehouse” in Homestead, Florida. It was a bit overcooked, but it didn’t take away from the fact that this was a lovely cut of fish. In addition to local salmon (man, that sounds weird), local shrimp, eggplant, mushrooms, peaches, pumpkins and more seasonal items are a hallmark of Oakley’s menu. I’m not sure where the pastrami-spiced sausages in the corn dogs ($11) came from, but I’m thinking out of this world given how addictive they were. That accompanying grain mustard, too. But if there are two dishes I’d put on the must-try list, it’s the jerk-spiced chicken hearts ($8) served on skewers with pineapple, and the pan-roasted duck breast ($28) plated alongside a sour cherry-scallion relish spooned over purple-skinned Murasaki sweet potatoes. More, please. Of course a hot chicken sandwich ($15) is offered. The one here comes with Sichuan-citrus oil, slaw and Duke’s Mayo for plenty of twang, but what it needs is more heat. Given Oakley’s Buffalo roots, I half-expected the sandwich to be served on a kummelweck roll, à la beef on weck, rather than a potato bun specked with sesame seeds. That said, I’m sure a contempo rendition of that Buffalonian staple will make an appearance on the menu sooner or later. In the meantime, a can or two of Thin Man’s “Pills Mafia” ($7) should give homesick Western New Yorkers a fill of nostalgia. The bar program, by the way, is run by Shawn Newman (Prato, Bitter & Brass, the Guesthouse, Robinson Room), and the cocktails reflect the wealth of experience and knowledge he brings. He’s part of a team that includes sous-chefs Robbie Lamison and Chris Parett, who’ve done their part in placing the Monroe in contention for best new restaurant. Lamison also handles pastry duties, and his cheesecake ($11) — boldly dubbed “The perfect cheesecake” — with Luxardo maraschinos, sour cherries, fresh cherries and a cherry glaze lives up to the hype. “He’s kicking ass,” says Oakley, then adds, “I’d be rudderless without those guys.” Indeed, it’s been relatively smooth sailing for Oakley and the Chins since the Monroe opened back in May and, if you ask me, it’s the sort of restaurant that floats my boat.
Ball Z-themed noodle house, will not only open a second Orlando location this fall (in the old Taco Bus location at 11325 University Blvd.), but this one will also house a sub-concept called Soupakase offering sub-$100 omakases at the sushi bar … Also this fall, the Mongolorian will bring high-tech, quick-service Mongolian barbecue to the old Firehouse Subs space at 2217 E. Colonial Drive. Seven tabletop stir fryers will do all the cooking … The Neighbors will open in the secondfloor event space at East End Market after a gut and redesign this fall. It will feature an Orlando-made retail component, a cocktail lounge and an eightseat chef’s tasting concept … Susuru Juju, another retro-themed izakaya by Lewis Lin, will open this winter on East Colonial Drive. Though Lin is being coy about the location, we’re pretty sure it’ll be the old Pizza Hut spot at 700 Maguire Blvd. across from the Fashion Square Mall … Pita Mediterranean Street Food has opened at the 400 North Apartments in Maitland … Bitebound, a fast-casual health food concept, will open this winter in the newly built City Place retail space at 1100 S. Orlando Ave. in Winter Park … Sugar Dough Bakehouse, sister concept to Winter Park creampuffery Light on the Sugar, has opened on Corrine Drive in Audubon Park serving Japanese milk bread, savory and cream-filled croissants, danishes, cookies, Portuguese egg tarts, and le flan — their take on a French-style custard made from sous-vide egg … Gordon Ramsay Fish & Chips will host a media gathering at its Icon Park location this weekend, which means it’ll likely open in the next couple of weeks.

HANGRY DOBO
You’ll feel the love as soon as you enter the restaurant, nestled in the Collegiate Way plaza at the corner of University Boulevard and Alafaya Trail. A warm welcome awaits from behind the cafeteria-style steam table, laden with up to 10 rotating Filipino delicacies (from garlicky chicken adobo to crispy deepfried pork belly) waiting to be served with rice or pancit. A little nervous about trying the pork shoulder stewed with serrano chilies and thickened with pork blood called dinuguan? Just ask for a little taste before committing.

The staples served at Tajine Xpress comprise all the heartwarming comfort one would expect from a Moroccan restaurant, from flaky bastille and briwat to the superb tajines, most notably lemon chicken and goat curry. The kebab trio of chicken, shrimp and kefta (ground beef) couldn’t be cooked any better — be sure to enjoy them with eggplant zalouk and fiery harissa. Start and end with a pot of Moroccan mint tea.

You-know-who in Cooking With Paris PHOTO COURTESY OF NETFLIX
ON (small) SCREENS IN ORLANDO Streaming premieres you won’t want to miss by Steve Schneider PREMIERES WEDNESDAY: Cooking With Paris — Remember Paris Hilton? The city of Orlando once subsidized an entire nightclub in her name, and she didn’t even bother to show up for the grand opening. Anyway, she’s trying to learn how to cook now, and she wants you to watch. This isn’t even failing upward — it’s more like “barely trying sideways.” (Netflix) Cocaine Cowboys: The Kings of Miami — Here comes a six-part series about the Cuban-born powerboat-racers-cum-drug-lords who were the target of one of the biggest busts in U.S. history. The show is based on the documentary of the same name that came out 15 years ago — back when many of us could actually afford cocaine! (Netflix)
PREMIERES FRIDAY: Hart to Heart — Kevin Hart gets his own talk show, in which he’ll welcome actors, musicians and other notables to his “virtual wine cellar.” Secretary Buttigieg, come on down! (Peacock) Teddy — Rural France is the setting for a shocker about a young man who believes he’s becoming a werewolf. I was going to joke that he’s not a werewolf and he’s not a swear wolf — he’s a surrender wolf. But no way am I going to take shots at the French right now. At least they make their werewolves carry vaccine passports. (Shudder)
PREMIERES SATURDAY: S.O.Z. Soldiers or Zombies Season 1 — Agents of the Mexican government who are trying to bring down a drug cartel get transformed into a horde of the undead, thanks to an American experiment gone awry. Seems to me we could be looking at some sort of geopolitical metaphor here. You know, the way District 9 really stuck it to the Irish. (Amazon Prime) The Suicide Squad — The wacky humor of new director James Gunn
(and a strategically added definite article) is the Hail Mary pass for the Suicide Squad franchise before the whole thing gets declared “not canon” and we all start over. Hey, I hear George Lucas is looking for work. (HBO Max) Val — While he waits for the Top Gun sequel to rescue him from the autograph circuit, Val Kilmer shares a lifetime’s worth of home movies that form a compelling portrait of the actor’s craft. Pay close attention if you want to learn how a true professional gets into character by flicking lit cigarettes at the crew. (Amazon Prime) Vivo — Get ready to have animation tug at your heartstrings, as LinManuel Miranda provides the voice of a rainforest honey bear who has to deliver a musical love letter on behalf of his human owner. I’m hoping for “Your Pretty Face Is Going to Hell” by the Stooges, but they’ll probably opt for something original so they can snag an Oscar nom. Damn loopholes. (Netflix)
PREMIERES MONDAY: Reservation Dogs — Taika Waititi and Native American filmmaker Sterlin Harjo present a comedy series about Oklahoma teens on the road to California. And all of the writers, directors and lead actors are genuine indigenous people. Well, no one in show business is genuine, but you know what I mean. (FX on Hulu)
PREMIERES TUESDAY: Bleed With Me — This horror picture asks the question, “Is it paranoia when you think the friend you’ve gone on vacation with is secretly draining the blood from your veins?” Follow-up question: What’s in that breakfast buffet, really? (Shudder) Untold: Malice at the Palace — Learn what really happened at the 2004 Pacers/Pistons riot in the first installment of a five-episode docu-series that probes the truth behind famous sports stories. Will we find out Pete Rose was innocent? I’ll bet you a 10-spot we won’t! (Netflix) orlandoweekly.com

LOCAL RELEASES
While accurate, calling the music of exceptional Cocoa Beach band Dunies “surf-punk” may be a bit too reductive. Indeed, they are, more than anything, a surf-punk band. But their recordings have occasionally shown other faces, and their latest release is a good exhibit of that depth. Tunes From the Dunes, Vol. 1 is a four-song trek into pulpy atmospherics that plays like a Robert Rodriguez soundtrack. It can be downloaded on Bandcamp and is streaming everywhere. Speaking of pulp, new Orlando hard-rap label Criminalistic Records is emerging from the underground with lurid horrorcore looks. Their aesthetic is explicit and pretty much nutshelled in the latest release by label boss ISVVC. Raw in sound and intent, North Mass Maniac is eight purposefully lo-fi tracks that walk on the dark side with a depraved and druggy shuffle. It’s gangsta, it’s death rap, and it’s all a modernization of the grisly extremities of 1990s hip-hop. And yep, best believe I went and dug up my old Gravediggaz CD after this. North Mass Maniac is streaming on Spotify, Soundcloud and the like, but is also available on limited-edition cassette on Bandcamp. Oh look, it’s Alien Witch here again. Though the impossible clip that the Orlando no-wave act had set for themselves of an album a month this year has fallen a bit off pace, the quality and variety has surprisingly not. Four-leaf Clover is their fifth full-length release of 2021, and it’s the longest one yet. The 18-song collection is a compilation of new and old songs that takes things back to the guitar side of things.
Composer Baishui rose from his origins in Sichuan province to become an experimental music star in China. Now, he’s continuing that journey from a new home base: Florida Forlorn but often lovely, the dark, narcotic psych rock on Four-leaf Clover contains five new songs, six older songs and seven beautiful cover songs by the likes of Mazzy Star, Brian Jonestown Massacre, Johnny Thunders, Warren Zevon, Chris Isaak and Tom Waits that could’ve made an outstanding mini album of their own. And all of it’s generously available on Bandcamp as a donation-based download.
MUSIC EVENTS THIS WEEK
The bad moon of the Delta variant’s still on the rise, so be smart if you go out. Weedeater, Joe Buck Yourself, Adam Faucett: I wish more bills were this manifold. Having North Carolina sludge dealers Weedeater at the top of the bill might set some very metal expectations for the rest of the night, but this lineup’s got more interesting dimension than that. First, there’s the punkabilly of Joe Buck Yourself, who first gained notoriety in bands like the Legendary Shack Shakers, Assjack and Hank III. But then there’s Arkansas’ Adam Faucett, an impressive roots crooner with an alternative take on
folk and country. It’s a thoughtful roster of impressive variety that, taken together, is like an underground portrait of the American South. (8 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 7, Will’s, $22-$25) Hadley’s Hope: This show by the scifi-loving Orlando band comes fresh off the recent release of their first new album in four years. Currently streaming everywhere, Diversions is a melodic blend of rock, prog, synth and pop that soars with Styx-esque ambition. (7 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 7, Orlando Brewing, free) Baishui: This artist rose from his origins in a small city in Sichuan province to become an established experimental music star in his native China. Now, he’s pushing that journey from an even more remote location on the other side of the world: Florida. Since making his U.S. debut at SXSW 2013, Baishui ultimately relocated here, landing in our backyard and settling near St. Augustine. Baishui’s music can plumb both deep folk humanity and profound avant-garde otherworldliness. He does so with astonishing range, roaming widely across genre — folk, ambient, electronic, post-rock, etc. — until transcending those boundaries altogether. This show will be a solo improvised performance that focuses on Baishui’s Sichuanese folk and dark ambient edges via guitar, analog synth modules, bamboo winds and laptop. A lot of serendipity lined up to bring this credentialed conceptual artist here, so seize the opportunity for this very special engagement.

Deicide
When you live your life in service to the Horned One, a little thing like a pandemic isn’t going to deter you from spreading the musical anti-gospel. Hence, these Central Florida death metal legends are kicking off their North American tour right here in the City Beautiful. Is it bragging rights or nah for this being the only Florida show of the tour? Also of note, the ridiculously stacked lineup of touring openers: Kataklysm, Internal Bleeding (!!) and Begat the Nephilim. 7 p.m., The Abbey, 100 S. Eola Drive, eventbrite.com, $25.
Spaceballs
Look, it’s time to start re-prioritizing outdoor events. Sorry. We don’t want to be outside in August that much either, but events like this can be a good way to get out of the house and be around people for the very safety-conscious. And even if this Mel Brooks takedown of Star Wars hasn’t exactly aged like a fine wine, Rick Moranis is transcendent as Dark Helmet and at least there’s no Jar Jar Binks. Tickets must be purchased in advance. Limited capacity show.
8:30 p.m., Harry P. Leu Gardens, 1920 N. Forest Ave., leugardens. org, $6.
Big-timing wrestling fed WWE has returned to touring shows with actual live audiences, in contrast to the Thunderdome(s) constructed in Central Florida to weather the pandemic. No matches have been announced as of this writing, because that’s not how the fed rolls creatively at present, but it’s a safe bet you’ll see Bobby Lashley, Drew McIntyre, AJ Styles and three of the most impressive women wrestlers in recent memory — scion of ring royalty Charlotte Flair, Rhea Ripley, and Asuka. 7:30 p.m., Amway Center, 400 W. Church Street, amwaycenter.com, $20-$250.

Not to take away anything from the other performers on the nineday Daze Between fest at New Standard, but this collaboration between percussionist-to-thestars Rashid Williams (John Legend, Common) and New Standard proprietor Nate Landwer intrigues us, promising to take the music and Jerry Garcia and the Grateful Dead and add a modern spectrum of hip-hop flavor and beats.

“MUM AND DAD” I’m a 24-year-old gay man with a 31-yearold bi boyfriend. I’ve known since we got together that he’s a lot more sexually experienced than I am, but it’s never been a big deal before now. This weekend, he met my parents for what we thought would be the first time. But it turns out that 10 years ago, during his “big bi slut phase” (his words), they had a threesome. I recognize that no one did anything wrong — they were three consenting adults — and it’s not like anyone could’ve known that he and I would get together in the future. But also, my boyfriend fucked my parents! I’m mortified, he’s mortified, they’re mortified, and I may never be able to look at my parents again. Please help us find a way to move past this! I Knew He Was Into Blonds I’ve been writing Savage Love for almost 30 years — it’ll be 30 years this September — and I rarely get letters that surprise me anymore. But after reading your letter today … and then lying in a dark room with a cool washcloth over my eyes for six hours … I came to a few realizations. First, I can still be surprised. Thank you for that. Second, if couples in their 40s with teenage children at home are going to have threesomes with guys in their 20s — and some are — there will always be a hardto-quantify-but-nevertheless-non-zero risk that their children, once grown, could wind up meeting and fucking and even falling in love with one of the guys their parents had a threesome with back in the day. Third, since I helped create a world where 40-something couples with kids sometimes have MMF threesomes with 20-something bisexual dudes, IKHWIB, this is all my fault oh my God what have I done can you ever forgive me. With that said, IKHWIB, do you know who I think should weigh in on this? The former mayor of Minneapolis. “If they’ve been able to laugh about this, that’s a good sign,” says Betsy Hodges, who was the mayor of Minneapolis from 2014 to 2018. “It might be a while before he can look at his boyfriend and not think about his parents having sex. That’s a tough thing to navigate, but laughter helps.” It may seem kind of random that the former mayor of Minneapolis is giving you sex advice, IKHWIB, but Hodges reached to me after I posted your letter to Twitter, where I told my followers — the former mayor of Minneapolis among them — that I was going to run your letter in my column even though I didn’t have the faintest idea what to tell you. Betsy Hodges, on the other hand, knew exactly what to say. “He has to ask himself if the boyfriend is worth it,” Hodges says. “Everything really
depends on the strength of their connection — which will have to be weighed against whatever tension now exists between IKHWIB, his boyfriend and his parents.” The Honorable Betsy Hodges suggests that the four of you have a conversation about what happened and how you want to handle things going forward. “Having that conversation — which I know sounds dreadful — could actually help them think about this less,” Hodges says, “especially if they get to a point where they can laugh about the insanity and awkwardness of the situation they’ve all found themselves in.” You can laugh about this until you pass out, IKHWIB, but if you can’t suck your boyfriend’s cock without thinking about your dad sucking your boyfriend’s cock, you may not be able to get past this. If you can’t look at your mom without thinking about her sitting on your boyfriend’s face, you might not be able to get past this. If you can’t take your boyfriend’s load without thinking about the load he dropped in your dad or your mom or both, you might not be able to get past this. But you might be able to, like Hodges said, think about this less. While I’m doubtful there’s a memory hole out there big enough to stuff this in and tight enough to prevent it from falling right back out, perhaps your parents have already shown you how it’s done. I know when I came out to my mom, she had a really hard time being around any guy I was dating due to the unwelcome mental images that plagued her when she saw me with a boyfriend. She could look at my sister and her boyfriend without picturing her little girl sucking that boy’s cock, but she somehow couldn’t look at my boyfriend without picturing that brute sodomizing her little boy. It took some very awkward conversations, some raised voices and, yes, some laughter before my mom successfully willed herself to stop conjuring up mental images of me getting my ass fucked. Maybe with some time, some awkward conversations and a little laughter, you’ll be able to purge all those unwelcome mental images of your boyfriend railing your parents from your mind too. I guess my point is, if gay and straight parents can pretend not to know what they damn well do know, i.e., that their grown children are sexually active adults now, and if they can learn not to torture themselves with unwelcome mental images of our partners fucking the shit out of us, seems to me that we should be able to do the same for them: recognize that our parents are sexual beings and at the same time expunge all unwelcome mental images from our minds. Yours is a much heavier lift than most, I realize, but if your boyfriend is worth it, you at least gotta try.
P.S. Perhaps this verse by poet Philip Larkin will help put things in perspective … They fuck you up, your mum and dad. They may not mean to, but they do. They fill you with the faults they had And add some extra, just for you. You’re not the first person whose parents … well, let’s not say your parents fucked you up. Instead let’s say you’re not the first person whose parents were a little extra. Good luck. I’m a woman in her 20s. I have a great connection with my partner, we communicate well, and the sex is the best in my life. There’s only one thing getting in the way: My partner and I started going out six months ago, immediately after the end of a relatively short but very intense relationship. I was with my previous partner for about a year. We were deeply in love but eventually broke up because he moved to another country. While I love my current partner and want him in my life, I am finding it hard to commit. I think what’s holding me back is not having the time to process the end of my previous relationship. I feel as if my ex still takes up space in my heart and this prevents me from fully letting my new partner in. I want to let go of the thought of my ex (we haven’t even spoken in half a year) and open fully up to my new partner, but it’s been difficult because the story with my ex feels unfinished. What do I do? Worried Hasty And Confused Klutz You may always feel regret about your previous partner since it ended for reasons outside either of your control — and just for the record, there’s no guarantee you won’t feel some regret about your current partner, if your new relationship ends, which it might. (I mean, it’s only been six months. A little soon to be tossing “partner” around, if you ask me, which you did.) But did your last relationship really end for reasons neither you nor your ex could control? If he had no choice but to move to another country and/ or if there was no way for you to go with him, OK, then the end was outside your control and his. But if he could’ve stayed and chose not to, WHACK, or if you could’ve gone with him and chose not to, well, then it didn’t end due to circumstances outside your control. Focusing on that — reminding yourself that an active choice was made to finish that relationship off — might help you get past the somewhat paralyzing degree of regret you currently feel. And if that doesn’t work, WHACK, perhaps a little more of the best sex you’ve ever had will do the trick. n orlandoweekly.com

Meet Gucci! This sweet girl is 1 year old and was surrendered by her owner back in May. She was fear-aggressive toward people and dogs. Everyone took their time, gave her tons of attention and love, and included her in play groups as often as they could. Now, almost three months later, Gucci (A471349) has come a long way and has become a volunteer and staff favorite. Affectionate and gentle, high-energy and incredibly athletic, Gucci enjoys her time in the play yard away from her kennel. She is spayed, microchipped, vaccinated and ready to go home with her new family same day she is adopted. Did you know August is National Dog Month? We’re making it a month to remember by rebranding it Dogust! Orange County Animal Services experiences its highest shelter intakes during the warmest months of the year, making this an optimal time to adopt, with many pets to choose from. We invite you to take the plunge and celebrate Dogust by adopting a canine friend! 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. For more information, please call 407-836-3111 or visit ocnetpets.com. AUG. 4-10, 2021 ● ORLANDO WEEKLY
