Readers react to stories from last week. On July 3, we reported that three beaches in Sarasota County were under a “no swim advisory” after authorities discovered high levels of enterococcus bacteria – as in, poop. Though no nearby sewage spills were reported, the local health department said Casino Beach, Brohard Park and Venice Beach all exhibited unacceptable levels of fecal pollution. @William VonPate With all the reports of shark bites/accidents, flesh-eating bacteria and feces in the water, I’ll stick to my local pool/water park. @Monica Wire Flesh-eating bacteria, sharks, 110 temperatures and Florida Man. After 30 years I am ready to say goodbye. @Melissa Bartko-Kennedy Poop to the left of me, sharks to the right, here I am stuck in Central Florida with you. On July 5, we reported that Chief U.S. District Judge Mark Walker held an initial telephone hearing last week in what could

be a drawn-out legal battle over a portion of the new elections law aimed at carrying out what appeared in the November ballot as Amendment 4. The amendment was designed to restore voting rights to felons who have completed terms of their sentences. But under the elections package signed by Gov. Ron DeSantis earlier this year, felons will have to pay financial obligations related to their crimes before they are eligible. Civil rights groups say the new law is a return to Jim Crow-era poll taxes. @Christopher DeLucco God forbid that criminals actually complete the terms of their sentences. @Jeff Rudda This is not a Jim Crowe situations [sic]. If fines and restitution are part of the sentencing, then the person is not fully in compliance with the completion of their court appointed sentence and are not eligible to vote. @Douglas Cole They didn’t even mention these “costs” for previous parolees. This is a new construct, designed to undermine the will of the people.

WATCHING DEMOCRACY DIE, PART 2 When the ends justify the means, anything goes BY JE FFREY C. BILL M A N

Last week, I wrote that there were two

recent events that made me think America’s unraveling had reached a point of no return. The more I thought about it, though, I realized there was a third: the blasé reaction to a credible allegation of sexual assault made against the president of the United States by a well-known New York media personality. Writer E. Jean Carroll’s accusation that Donald Trump forcibly penetrated her two decades ago wouldn’t be enough to convict him. But “beyond a reasonable doubt” shouldn’t be the standard for the putative leader of the free world, especially since Carroll joins about two dozen other women who have accused Trump of sexual misconduct – harassment, groping, ogling, assault. Trump, a serial fabulist, says every single one of them is lying (and about many, that they “aren’t his type,” which has nothing to do with anything and makes it clear he doesn’t actually know what “rape” means). The alternative explanation is that the president is a serial predator. Besides Sen. Mitt Romney, no high-ranking Republican has called for an investigation or voiced more than mealy-mouthed concern. The national media, sensing Republican disinterest (and fearful of being labeled partisan), has all but dropped it. Democrats, forever pusillanimous, won’t press the issue. We’ve all moved on. And just like that, another guardrail, another norm, has collapsed. Through indifference, the president’s party once again protected its leader – just as it has from mountains of evidence that he repeatedly sought to obstruct an investigation into a foreign adversary’s interference in the 2016 U.S. election. In so doing, it protected its own power. I suppose that’s the only thing that matters. That brings us to Oregon. In 2018, Oregon voters gave Democrats supermajori-

ties in both legislative chambers. This session, the state House has passed a slew of progressive legislation – most controversially, a cap-and-trade bill. Democrats made concessions to conservatives and industry leaders, but they weren’t considered good enough. It shouldn’t have mattered. Republicans hated the bill, but voters had spoken, and overwhelmingly. By rights – and by votes – Republicans had no legitimate way to stop it. So they chose an illegitimate way. They fled the state and went into hiding, denying the Senate a quorum as the session neared its end, with critical legislation pending. They were betting that the Democrats – who, unlike Republicans, aren’t yet so nihilistic as to want to intentionally make government dysfunctional – would blink first. Guess what: The Democrats blinked. A few days later, Oregon Dems said they no longer had the votes to pass cap-and-trade. This was the tyranny of a minority unwilling to recognize the legitimacy of the other side – a way of saying that some votes, their votes, matter more than those of others. It’s exactly the mentality How Democracies Die warns of: When the other faction is viewed as illegitimate and dangerous, the ends always justify the means. Our system wasn’t designed for a perpetual turf war. Mechanisms that were designed to inhibit majoritarian rule and foster deliberation now render government impotent and enable minority parties to maintain power despite what the citizens they represent (hint: that’s all of them, not just the ones who voted for you) think. And that brings us to Rucho v. Common Cause, a Supreme Court decision that will do more damage to our democracy than Citizens United ever could. Here, the court’s conservative majority threw up its hands and decided there was nothing it could do to stop extreme partisan gerrymandering. Come 2021, when the

next round of reapportionment takes place, state legislatures have the green light to do their damnedest. Rucho involved cases in two states, Maryland and North Carolina. Maryland’s gerrymander spread out black voters to help Democrats go from a 6–2 congressional advantage to 7–1. North Carolina’s gerrymander was a whole different kind of monster. A few years earlier, the Supreme Court had ordered the state to redraw its 2011 maps, which it deemed unconstitutional racial gerrymanders. The doover maps at issue in Rucho had accomplished the same goal: a 10–3 GOP lean in all but the biggest of blue waves. The court’s five Republican appointees ruled that this is fine. Or maybe not fine, but at least not their problem. The courts lacked the authority and/or couldn’t figure out a fix, Chief Justice John Roberts shrugged. Justice Elena Kagan shredded him in her dissent: “For the first time ever, this Court refuses to remedy a constitutional violation because it thinks the task beyond judicial capabilities. … In so doing, the partisan gerrymanders here debased and dishonored our democracy, turning upside-down the core American idea that all governmental power derives from the people.” Roberts suggested that people take matters into their own hands, through ballot initiatives or by pressure legislatures or Congress into taking action. He’s not that naive, of course. Nearly half of states, including North Carolina and Maryland, don’t allow ballot initiatives. What’s more, state lawmakers aren’t about to give up a system that lets them choose their own voters. And so long as the GOP runs the U.S. Senate, federal action is similarly unfathomable. To put it simply, gerrymandering keeps Republicans in power. Look no further than Wisconsin, where Republicans maintained nearly 2–1 legislative majorities while losing every statewide election and the statewide popular vote in November. Or North Carolina, where a popular-vote split gave Republicans 10 of 13 congressional seats (one race is being re-run after an election fraud scandal), and Republicans won fewer votes for the General Assembly but ended up with large majorities. Unless North Carolina Democrats reclaim the legislature in 2020 – unlikely, unless Common Cause prevails in a gerrymandering lawsuit moving through the state courts – those same Republicans will redraw districts for the next 10 years, this time with the Supreme Court’s blessing to gerrymander with gusto. As Harvard political scientist Ryan D. Enos wrote on Twitter: “The court’s gerrymandering decision seems to lock in an essentially non-democratic feature of American politics. Elected representatives can rig the system to remain in power indefinitely and this cannot be challenged. Combine this with the other increasingly consequential non-democratic features of the American system, i.e., the Electoral College and the Senate, and the long-term stability of the system seems worryingly compromised.” In other words, America has a democracy problem – and it’s only getting worse. What the hell. I’m not done yet. Part 3 coming up.

Florida taxpayers are on the hook for the Cabinet’s expensive Israel trip, Florida remains one of the country’s deadliest states, and other news you may have missed last week. »

SPLC adds plaintiffs to solitary confinement suit against Florida Department of Corrections: The lawsuit, filed in early May, focused in part on five inmates who said they were put in solitary confinement for extended periods even though they had been diagnosed with mental illness. This week, the lawsuit was amended to add two new plaintiffs, said a spokesman for the Southern Poverty Law Center. The Department of Corrections is expected to be served by next week. A department spokeswoman said the state won’t comment on the lawsuit until then, but said solitary confinement is used only when “absolutely necessary.”

Florida taxpayers paid more than $30K for Cabinet trip to Israel, and costs aren’t all in yet: Records obtained by the News Service of Florida detailing travel expenses of Agriculture Commissioner Nikki Fried and Cabinet staff members show taxpayers footed the bill for nearly $30,000 in hotel rooms, airfare, “registration fees,” baggage fees and per-diem costs, which can include meals. That total covered expenses for Fried, three of her staff members, Chief Financial Officer Jimmy Patronis’ chief of staff and Attorney General Ashley Moody’s general counsel. The full delegation included about 200 people, and final expenses have not yet been reported.

Florida Department of Health to partner with Centers for Disease Control to address hepatitis A outbreak: The state reported 1,718 cases of hepatitis A between Jan. 1 and June 29, and 346 new cases between May 31 and June 29. Hepatitis A is a highly contagious liver infection with effects ranging from mild illness to severe incapacitation. The CDC says hepatitis A spreads when a person ingests the virus from objects, food, or drinks contaminated by undetected amounts of feces from an infected person.

Beloved Central Florida manatee Dix found dead after watercraft collision: Dix, one of the star manatees of Blue Spring State Park, was recently found dead in DeLand. After assessing her injuries, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission says she died from an “acute watercraft collision.” Dix rose to fame by bringing three calves into the Blue Spring area, fearlessly hanging around an alligator, and being an overall friendly creature adored by visitors and locals alike. The death of this popular manatee highlights an escalating problem: More manatees than usual are getting struck and killed by boats.

Florida ranked third most dangerous state in the nation: A new report from WalletHub claims Florida is the 48th safest state in the country. The study factored in things like personal and residential safety, financial safety, road safety, workplace safety and emergency preparedness, with Florida ranking among the bottom in almost every category. But it was our roads and our terrifying drivers that really tanked our standing.

Five sea turtles and a sandhill crane were returned to natural environments after SeaWorld Orlando care: The SeaWorld rescue team returned three juvenile green sea turtles to Flagler City and Ormond Beach on June 18 following months of treatment after they were found lethargic and covered in barnacles. The team returned two loggerhead turtles to Cocoa Beach on June 25. One of the turtles, rescued initially by the UCF marine turtle group, had a missing left flipper and was also lethargic and covered in barnacles. Additionally, the SeaWorld rescue team returned a sandhill crane on June 25. The crane was found with a fishhook in its foot and treated with antibiotics before being returned. orlandoweekly.com

Tacos & Tequila EVENTS

Even more so than the soon-to-be-demolished Orchid Garden, the Cheyenne Saloon & Opera House feels like a historical building. It’s not – it only opened in 1982 – but the beautiful wood and brass interior, grand staircase, stained glass and square-dance-ready dance floor do such a good job of evoking the past that you wouldn’t be all that surprised to run into the ghost of Al Swearengen at one of the many bars. Next weekend, we bid adieu to the Cheyenne with one of our favorite food events: Tacos & Tequila. Appropriately for the final iteration at such a beloved venue, we’re pulling out all the stops. Restaurants and sponsors set up shop at various locations throughout the building to pass out their favorite takes on tacos. You’ll find the usual suspects like Chela, Tijuana Flats and Jimmy Hulas, along with newcomers like Chronic Tacos or Drive Shack. Hot sauce addicts will find plenty of Scoville units at the Poca’s Hottest hot sauce bar, which includes a special recipe cooked up just for Tacos & Tequila. As for the tequila portion of the evening, we’ve secured reposados and anejos and blancos and other terms we’re not super clear on from distillers and distributors like Blue Nectar, Dulce Vida and De La Vega Tequila Bar. Some places will be showcasing their tequilas straight (if you’ve ever met a tequila rep, you know how much they like to say the phrase, “Smooth, right?”), while some will be showing off how well their tequila can be used in cocktails as a nice change of pace from vodka or whiskey. Not to be outdone, though, Tito’s Handmade Vodka plans to infiltrate the event and serve up authentic Palomas made with Jarritos sodas and Natalie’s Juices. As far as entertainment goes, inside the Saloon, we’ll have music provided by DJ BMF accompanied by live brass from the Phat-N-Jazzy Horns, along with a live mariachi band and a photobooth sponsored by Drive Shack. Outside on Church Street, we’re bringing in the Pacifico Airstream Trailer Bar, music from DJ Dizzlephunk and – get this – a mechanical shark. You’ll be able to ride the shark for a chance to win prizes, including T-shirts and, presumably, the chance to say “Smile, you son of a –” and then have shark meat explode everywhere. (Please don’t actually break the shark; just go watch Jaws again.) – Thaddeus McCollum noon (VIP entry); 1-4 p.m. (general admission) | Cheyenne Saloon & Opera House, 120 W.

The players – their focus undivided – take turns walking from the stage to the seats lined in rows underneath a 24-foot, halo-shaped LED display screen overhead. The players from each team line up in front of their seats.

ing event to take place at the Fortress, Full Sail University’s new 11,200-square-foot on-campus esports arena. It’s home to the Armada, the university’s collegiate esports team, which comprises 80 players across 11 titles, including Dragon Ball FighterZ, Super Smash Brothers, League of Legends, Fortnite and Rocket League, among others. But it’s not the tournament that’s particularly consequential in the moment, no matter the $180,000 prize or playoffqualifying glory that’s at stake. It’s what Full Sail wants to accomplish as it hosts its first major event in the newly opened arena: to carve out a place as Florida’s, if not the entire U.S. East Coast’s, premier esports venue. Full Sail announced the $6 million Fortress last October as the largest college esports arena anywhere; it only took a few months to complete, including its dedicated practice space. Even so, the world of esports is already

huge on both the national and international scale, and growing. What sort of impression can the university hope to make on an already thriving U.S. industry, as well as the worldwide industry? And is Full Sail going to be another college to “spend on the athletes, starve the students,” as happens with some other university athletics?

In October 1972, Spacewar

players gathered at Stanford University’s Artificial Intelligence Lab in Los Altos, California, for what would go down in history as the world’s first video game tournament. The event was staged by Rolling Stone writer and editor Stewart Brand, who was working on a feature story about the potential the technology had to change society and inspire creativity. The prize awarded to winner Bruce Baumgart: a one-year subscription to Rolling Stone. Competitive gaming’s momentum accelerated after that.

In November 1980, Atari attracted more than 10,000 participants when it hosted the National Space Invaders Championship. The Nintendo World Championships, which featured a $10,000 prize, were held for the first time in January 1990. The U.S. recognized League of Legends players as professional athletes in July 2013. In November 2014, more than 45,000 in-person (and 27 million online) attendees watched the League of Legends World Championships in South Korea. Last year, more people tuned into the League of Legends World Championship in November than the NFL’s Super Bowl and NCAA men’s basketball’s Final Four combined. In total, more than 200 million people viewed the tournament on Twitch, the live stream video platform that’s helped propel esports into the mainstream world. In 2019, the global esports economy topped $1 billion for the first time, a $100 orlandoweekly.com

million increase from the previous year, according to Newzoo, which researches esports. “Let’s be honest, [esports] isn’t a brandnew thing,” says Full Sail esports strategist Bennett Newsome. “It’s a brand-new thing for us, for this country, where esports has been kind of an underground thing. But overseas this is normal – this is huge. The viewership for those types of events has been insane.” Esports have gotten so big in the U.S. that colleges are throwing money at newly developed programs; there are currently 200 American colleges offering about $15 million per year in scholarships. The National Association of Collegiate Esports found that students receive on average roughly $4,800 in tuition awards a year. Full Sail isn’t there yet, Newsome says. Despite the state-of-the-art facilities, Full Sail has yet to offer scholarships to any of CONTINUED ON PAGE 20

its players or hire coaches. “We really want to become the home for all things esports in Florida, specifically, especially at the collegiate level,” Newsome says. “We have an administration here at this university that is 100 percent onboard with this initiative and what we’re doing, and that is very, very rare. ... There are other schools that are doing really well [with their esports programs], but they’re struggling to get their key people to say, ‘OK, let’s go all in.’ So for us to build a $6 million facility on our campus, that’s huge already.” Full Sail has never had an actual athletics program. But its degree programs, Newsome says, were always a natural fit for something along the lines of esports. “We would love to see our students go on to be successful in the world of esports as a competitive player,” Newsome says. “We have students who are coming to Full Sail specifically to come into the esports industry to focus on production or graphics, film, lighting. We have our Dan Patrick School of Sportscasting. We have a ton of students who are specifically going to that to become shout-casters” – the equivalent of esports live broadcasters. Eric Alpizar – who’s known as “HeavyCura” on the Armada, for whom he plays Dragon Ball FighterZ – says it was Full Sail’s esports program and the opportunity that came with earning an 20

ORLANDO WEEKLY ● JULY 10-16, 2019 ● orlandoweekly.com

entertainment business degree at the university that lured him to Orlando following a stint in the U.S. Navy. The latter part of his gamer tag is derived from the Spanish word curar, which means “to heal.” He says it’s a nod towards the time he spent as an EMT. In between sips from a Nos energy can that’s the size of a forearm, Alpizar, 29, says it remains somewhat unbelievable to him “that a college exists that has an esports team in general, let alone one that’s running and ready to embrace it.” To what extent will esports expand in the U.S.? Alpizar isn’t sure. “But I hope it gets huge so that I can get a job eventually when my skills run out, when the carpel tunnel and arthritis kicks in when I’m 50 and I’m just like, ‘What do I do now?’” Like the rest of the Armada, he’s required to maintain a 2.5 GPA as well as a high “professionalism” grade – a Full Sail-specific academic rating that tracks students’ professional conduct. Alpizar says he plays the game he competes in three to four hours a day, four days a week. The only exception is when he takes two to three days off prior to a big match, a similar practice to professional weight-lifters or bodybuilders. That’s not counting the time he dedicates to watching game film, whether that means other high-level players on Twitch or his own film. “You’ve got to think about it like sports or anything else – at what point does just


shooting hoops in your driveway become work?” Alpizar says. “If you do it right, it doesn’t really. But some days you don’t really want to go out there, and you just kind of have to persevere and push yourself out there to go do it.”

“We’ve had a stronghold in

this space for such a long time,” Casey Tanous, a spokesperson for Full Sail, says of the university’s involvement in the esports world, including tournaments it hosted prior to building the Fortress. As Tanous says this, she walks through the swinging doors that lead inside the Fortress’ arena. It’s the day before the start of the NBA 2K League tournament, and several of the university’s tech staffers are scrambling around the room. “Build it and they will come?” Tanous adds. The eyes of the two reporters behind her widen at the sight of the arena. “It’s more like they were here, we needed to build it.” She points up to the digital players’ cards displayed on the screens surrounding the arena. Just as you’d see during a live broadcast of an NFL game, the screens rotate short GIF-like videos of each of the 80 Armada players, each clad in their jersey and smirking confidently, arms crossed.

Esports are currently on a “skyrocket trajectory,” Tanous says. “There are people who actively want to play. There are people who actively want to watch and just spectate. There are people who are interested in tuning into people who are streamers just talking about it. I really see it as this next wave of entertainment.” It might be. If schools such as Full Sail have already spent such money on these programs, more are certain to follow. “It’s just like everything else in this country – it takes a while to convince the older people that it’s cool, or that it could make them money, or that it’s interesting,” Alpizar says. Alpizar remembers walking into the living room of his family’s home as a kid to find his dad watching professional bowling on ESPN. “It was the most ludicrous thing I could imagine – that there’d be bowling on television, because bowling’s something you do with your crazy uncle on Saturdays and at birthday parties,” Alpizar says. “And it occurred to me that that’s the same logic people have when I speak to them about gaming and esports – it’s like, why would people want to watch you play a game? And I’m like, I don’t know; people watch bowling on ESPN.” xpeters@orlandoweekly.com

I predicted this summer would be

the theme park industry’s most dramatic season in half a decade, but I’ve proved prescient for reasons I never anticipated. In Orlando, multi-hour waits persist at Islands of Adventure’s new Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure a month after its heavily attended opening, due as much to the coaster’s severely limited carrying capacity as its popularity. The Wizarding World’s latest thrill has struggled to stay running in the face of recent rainstorms, and the promised “virtual queue” hasn’t yet materialized, so your only hope of waiting less than three hours is to enter the queue between 5 and 6 p.m. and pray for clear skies. Simultaneously, Walt Disney World’s publicity machine engaged in an uncharacteristically public spat with the fan site WDWNT.com, publishing snarky official statements on the Disney Parks Blog rebutting the website’s rumors that the Magic Kingdom’s vintage Enchanted Tiki Room and Country Bear Jamboree shows are being retired, referencing “unscrupulous sources” without mentioning them by name. However, none of this summer’s Floridian attraction angst compares to the aftershocks accompanying the debut of Star Wars Galaxy’s Edge at Disneyland, which ended its reservation-only period on June 24 and opened for the general public to shock-

Here are my two Spirian Credits on why I think Disneyland feels deserted lately, and why it doesn’t mean that Batuu will be barren when Orlando’s version debuts in about six weeks ingly soft attendance. Instead of the Jedi hordes expected, the entire Anaheim resort was eerily empty throughout the typically busy Fourth of July week. Wait times for the headline Millennium Falcon simulator averaged below an hour (often a walk-on for single riders), and other E-tickets had unusually short lines. Meanwhile, Universal Studios Hollywood up the street started technical rehearsals of its reimagined Jurassic World raft ride, and approached maximum capacity on multiple days. Disneyland’s bizarrely low attendance caught most insiders (and Mouse management) off guard, and while it’s a blessing for tourists, many are questioning what it means for the nearly identical Star Wars expansion opening at Disney’s Hollywood

Die-hards drained early: The

most hard-core fans booked expensive on-site hotel rooms so they could visit Galaxy’s Edge a month ago, and already bought Black Spire Outpost out of much coveted merchandise. By definition, guests who waited until reservations ended were less eager. WDW has announced no similar previews to manage demand.

Since purchasing Lucasfilm, Disney has pumped out new product non-stop, but boxoffice receipts from the Asian audiences that travel to California attractions imply that this franchise can’t be endlessly milked like Marvel. However, Orlando’s foreign visitors hail from Europe and South America, where the series is more popular.

Currently, most annual passholders are blocked out of the Disneyland Resort entirely, or banished to Disney’s California Adventure. Disneyland’s correlating drop in wait times demonstrates what a large percentage of those parks’ population locals represent. Floridian passholders make up a far smaller pro-

Hotel Hell: Disneyland only

·

Waiting for the chosen one:

has 2,490 hotel rooms across its three on-site resorts, and their guests aren’t getting special perks inside Galaxy’s Edge. WDW has 36,077 rooms across dozens of properties, and every one of those guests will be cramming into “Extra Extra Magic Hours” at 6 a.m. in a doomed attempt to beat the rush. The Millennium Falcon is getting mixed reviews, and reactions to blue milk are meh, so some are delaying their visit until the Rise of the Resistance (rumored to merge several rides into one epic package) is ready sometime later this year. Orlando’s version may emerge hot on Anaheim’s heels, minimizing any attendance lag.

· FOMO > FOMO: Despite price

increases, Disneyland attendance has been steadily climbing, and Mickey’s marketeers – aided and abetted by experts like myself – emphasized what a mob scene Galaxy’s Edge’s opening months would likely be. Far from fueling most tourists’ Fear of Missing Out, such apocalyptic predictions inspired Fear of Massive Overcrowding, creating a self-defeating prophecy: Like Yogi Berra said, nobody goes there anymore, it’s too crowded. News of California’s low crowds could incite the opposite issue in Orlando.

·

Nothing to do at DHS:

Disneyland is Disney’s densest theme park, with more rides than Epcot and Animal Kingdom combined, so Galaxy’s Edge’s 14 acres just gives it more breathing room. Once Star Wars opens, Hollywood Studios will still have barely a half-dozen E-ticket attractions, and adjustments to its FastPass distribution ensure guests will have few options outside Black Spire Outpost.

Vitamin T

TACOS

New trends hitting Orlando include unexpected fillings (keeping in mind, what may be new to our menus is sometimes old news in the original cuisine). Look out for octopus, ceviche, lamb, chicharrones or the newly ubiquitous Impossible or Beyond Burger crumbles. Another protein you may not have considered: chapulines, or deep-fried dried grasshopppers. As far as creative vegetable options go, expect to start seeing nopales (cactus paddles that are harvested, de-thorned and peeled) on more menus, as well as hibiscus flowers and sweet potatoes. Locally, you can find a chapuline taco at Coco Cocina, a hibiscus taco at Hunger Street, a pork-fat taco at Black Rooster Taqueria and a sweet potato taco at MX Tacos. Less “authentic” but still tasty: the Indian butter chicken taco at Pig Floyd’s Urban Barbakoa and the Beyond Burger tacos with avocado sauce and pickled red onions at Pepe’s Cantina.

New trends in tacos, tortas and tamales give handheld culture new life BY JE SSICA BRYCE YOU N G

M

ost people are aware that what they eat should contain at least a modicum of nutritional value as well as hitting the correct coordinate point on the sweet-sour-salty/crunchy-creamy-chewy grid. Along with your A, B, C and K, though, are you getting enough vitamin T? Vitamin T is naturally occurring in the Mexican diet, but Americans and those of other nationalities need to be careful to seek it out. Luckily, this is pretty easy, what with the popularity of Mexican cuisine. You can find vitamin T in tacos, tortas and tamales, though tortillas and tequila also contain trace amounts.

TORTAS

Tortas! It’s what’s for lonche. Longtime taco fans (i.e., every American) may not be as well-acquainted with tortas, which are simply sandwiches, but still an important part of a vitamin T-rich diet! Served on a crusty round roll called a telera or bolillo, a torta can be filled with anything, but the traditional choices are ham, avocado or scrambled eggs, topped with tomato, onion and chili peppers. The telera/bolillo somewhat resembles a baguette, but a regional variant is the cemita, which is more like a brioche roll covered in sesame seeds. Rick Bayless’ Chicago restaurant Xoco specializes in tortas, serving more than a dozen varieties including braised goat, bacon-and-cheese, and crispy eggplant, but his Disney Springs Frontera Cocina doesn’t have a torta on the menu (yet?). Locally, we haven’t seen tortas on a lot of high-end menus, though Reyes Mezcaleria used to serve a torta ahogada or “drowned torta” (a Guadalajara version that drenches the torta in tomato sauce); it may yet make a reappearance as a special. Chela Tacos & Tequila serves veggie, pork and chicken tortas at lunch, with fancy fixings like jicama slaw and garlic aioli. And in the cheap-and-fast arena, Tortas El Rey down on South Orange Blossom Trail is, well, the king of tortas.

TAMALES

HUNGER STREET | PHOTO BY LINDSEY THOMPSON

Tamales are a traditional Mexican holiday food – possibly because, like ravioli or dumplings, they’re time-consuming to assemble and many hands make lighter work. Those many hands present in the house around the holidays make putting together the protein-stuffed bundles of masa (cornmeal) dough steamed in cornhusks a much more convivial experience. As yet, tamales haven’t made major inroads as a stand-alone specialty in Orlando, though most good Mexican joints in town have them on the menu. (Last time I was in Knoxville I had a very happy meal at Good Golly Tamale, an all-tamale joint in Oldtown that serves lunch and also sells homemade frozen tamales by the dozen.) The major exception is Tamale Co., the popular food truck that recently opened a brick-and-mortar outpost in the Hourglass Social House, the food hall on Curry Ford Road. Even Tamale Co. isn’t a tamal-only place, but they do have 10 variants on the menu, from classic shredded pork to mushroom-and-cheese, so they get a pass. You can also eat in or buy as many as you can carry out at Tienda Mexicana Jalisco, the Mexican grocery on Goldenrod Road. And don’t turn your nose up at Chuy’s. Yes, it’s a national chain, but with its Texas roots, Chuy’s is the easiest place to find that classic Tex-Mex specialty, Christmas tamales: tamales striped in green Hatch chile sauce and deep-red roja chile sauce. It’s an a-masa-ing way to celebrate the holiday. jyoung@orlandoweekly.com

Sister restaurant to Lake Mary’s F&D Kitchen & Bar and F&D Cantina, F&D Woodfired Italian Kitchen serves a menu of Neapolitan-style pizza and hearty pastas (using local noodle maestros Trevi) to the delight of residents in the Hourglass District. Notable dishes: yielding meatballs of Italian sausage and pangrattato; thinribboned cacio e pepe with Italian pork; and a wild mushroom pappardelle in a lovely porcini cream sauce.

STUBER STUMBLES

Action-comedy is an unpleasant ride BY C AMERON MEIE R

S

tuber’s title is a portmanteau of went Lasik surgery. Confused already? Uber and the film’s main character, Just wait. Further subplots abound, including Vic Stu. The movie’s creators apparently thought it a clever combo, so let me pledging to attend the art-show openalso don my Lewis Carroll hat and invent a ing of his daughter (Natalie Morales) and Stu promising to console Becca, who word for this action-comedy: stubid. Mild-mannered Stu (Kumail Nanjiani) has just broken up with her boyfriend works at a sporting-goods store by day and is requesting sexual comfort from Stu (because that hapand drives an Uber in pens in real life). But the evening. His world the overstuffing doesn’t revolves around avoiding stop at the plot, as emotional abuse from STUBER writer Tripper Clancy his boss (Jimmy Tatro) Opens Friday, July 12 (Hot Dog) and director and getting closer to Michael Dowse (Fubar) his crush, Becca (Betty also pack in multiple Gilpin), with whom he genres: comedy, action hopes to open a small and the embarrassbusiness. Those prioriingly sandwiched-in ties are upended when a policeman, Vic (Dave Bautista), hires drama. And how do we know when the his Uber to chase a violent fugitive who film switches from farce to pathos? The killed his former partner (Karen Gillan) six cloying score tells us, of course. It’s all out months earlier. The unlikely use of an Uber of Screenwriting 101, or that popular film(instead of a cop car) is explained, weakly, writing manual, Save the Cat! But this cat by the fact that Vic’s boss (Mira Sorvino) has mange. Nanjiani is talented, as he showed in has taken him off the case and Vic is unable to drive himself because he just under- The Big Sick, but he deserves better writing

HHHHH

and a director with a smarter sensibility and more discipline. And though Bautista has an undeniable screen presence, which he demonstrated as Drax the Destroyer in Marvel movies, his acting belongs not with legitimate filmmaking but with World Wrestling Entertainment, where he performed before transitioning to cinema. Morales (Parks and Recreation) does some nice work, but Sorvino and Gillan (Amy Pond in Doctor Who) are embarrassingly wasted. Still, no single element is as misused as the Hollies classic, “The Air That I Breathe,” which, in a moment of musical sacrilege, is played over a bloody shootout. “If I could make a wish, I think I’d pass” on this film. Will some people enjoy Stuber? Certainly. Take the dude sitting next to me at the screening. Take him, please. No, seriously, he loved it. For an hour and a half, he chortled, clapped his hands, shoveled popcorn in his pie hole and even stomped his feet, as if he were at one of Bautista’s wrestling matches. He enjoyed elements I couldn’t: the 1980s buddy-cop vibe, exhausting freneticism, unpleasantly active camerawork, car crashes, stunts, and haphazard juxtaposition of graphic violence and mirth in the vein of Deadpool. So I begrudgingly wish him happy feasting on this sloppy smorgasbord of sophomoric cinema. I’d prefer to starve. “I didn’t think you were gonna give me five stars,” Stu tells Vic, referencing his Uber rating. In movie-review terms, Stu, you couldn’t be more correct. How does one star sound?

BY STEVE SCHNEIDER

OPENING THIS WEEK: Crawl When the trailer for this set-in-Florida disaster/horror flick dropped two months ago, our Thaddeus McCollum penned an exhaustive rundown (read it at orlandoweekly.com) of its glaring cultural inaccuracies – from the depiction of basements in its “Florida homes” to the disorienting image of a state governor issuing evacuation orders while not wearing a Navy cap. But there’s one related discrepancy not even McCollum caught: Said governor is a black guy, and we’ve clearly proved we aren’t ready for anything like that, thank you very much. This is why I’ve come to suspect the movie was actually designed to function on two levels, imparting generic summerblockbuster thrills to the rest of the nation while poking Floridians in the eye in ways only we can fully appreciate. So the movie throws at us not just a Category 5 hurricane, but a Category 5 hurricane that puts a father (Barry Pepper) and his daughter at the mercy of killer alligators. Seriously, why don’t the two of them just take refuge in an Amscot? That would make the contempt good and obvious. (And accurate.) Plus, the whole thing was shot in Serbia, which seems like a pretty blatant attempt to humiliate us by playing up our inherent resemblance to an internationally recognized disaster area. Except that some of those places have the good sense to accept relief funds. In the most subtle “screw you,” the part

of the aforementioned daughter is played by Kaya Scodelario, whose other big gig this year was portraying the wife of none other than Ted Bundy on Netflix. Ted Bundy? Cheap shot, Crawl! That’s like announcing you’re going to make a movie about the proud history of New York State and then revealing that Edith Wharton is going to be played by Victoria Gotti. Come to think of it, I’d actually watch the crap out of that. Especially if it was shot in Aleppo. (R)

ALSO PLAYING: The Fall of the American Empire It was all the way back in 1986 that filmmaker Denys Arcand gave us The Decline of the American Empire. The real American empire has gone from decline to fall a lot quicker than that, but Arcand is Canadian, so of course he’s going to be politer about it. An aura of Great White Northern gentility permeates this “thematic sequel,” in which a philosophy student discovers two bags of money and then faces an ethical crisis as to what he should do with them. First of all, philosophy students – is that even a thing anymore? Second, is there anybody south of Niagara Falls who would think about turning over two bags full of money to the so-called authorities? I’m so moral I’m stuck working in journalism, and even I would only consider doing one thing with a couple of satchels’ worth of greenbacks: taking them to a Seminole casino to turn them into four satchels’ worth. It sure beats another trip to Amscot, amirite Floridians? (R; opens Friday at Regal Winter Park Village & RPX) orlandoweekly.com

SUMMER BUMMER California’s Mom Jeans level up with a spot on the Sad Summer Festival BY IDA ESKAMANI

E

ric Butler, the unassuming frontman of up-and-coming sad punks Mom Jeans, doesn’t mince words: “Nobody deserves anything when it comes to music. No one is entitled to anything at all.” Berkeley, California, quartet Mom Jeans are hitting the road for the largest tour of the band’s five-year existence – the Sad Summer Festival – which means they’ll be playing a show in Orlando alongside emo stalwarts State Champs, Mayday Parade, the Maine, the Wonder Years, Set It Off and many more. It’s uncharted territory for a band with roots in a DIY scene grounded in self-management, busted and borrowed tour vans, and fans and communities found in crowded basement and house shows across the country. The band’s forthcoming level-up is nerve-wracking. They don’t quite know if they deserve it, but they won’t take it for granted. As Butler puts it, “I’m feeling like a freshman on the first day of high school, checking it out and not sure what to expect.” The band is committed to their underground roots, yet Mom Jeans collectively

feel an immense sense of responsibility to the musical peers that didn’t have the same overwhelming opportunities placed before them. “It’s a huge privilege and I would have felt like a big fucking asshole if I wasted that,” asserts Butler. Butler’s confessional vulnerability in conversation mirrors that of his lyrics; it’s part of the innate power of his music. Mom Jeans speaks to the millennial malaise brought on by inheriting all of your parents’ mistakes as well as a self-destructing world; there’s self-doubt, a desire to be better without quite knowing how, and plenty of Netflix in between. In Mom Jeans, that reality is punctuated by angst-filled vocals, raucously winding guitar riffs, devastatingly decisive drums, and the occasional (and unforgettable) horn solo. The opening track of the band’s 2018 record Puppy Love, “Near Death Fail Comp (Must Watch Until End)” provides one of countless examples from the band’s discography: “Turn off my cell phone, I’m going off the grid/Which is for me eating Cheetos in my bed.”

8 p.m. Friday, July 12, at Uncle Lou’s, $10

There is a certain magic to Mom Jeans, and it’s about to be shared with new audiences across the country. When asked why Mom Jeans resonates with listeners, Butler deflected accolades and reflected on timing and the band’s mission instead. “As part of the sociopolitical climate right now, people feel a sense of responsibility to be better and to try to be more proactive about not being a shitty person,” says Butler. “Ultimately that’s what our music is about, trying to learn how to be a better person, less shitty.” We all could be a little less shitty. We could also use some more Mom Jeans in our lives. Butler shared with the Weekly that the band is already working on a new full-length album. No release date yet, but they’re committed to the hustle, and delivering something that goes beyond genre boundaries and straight to listeners’ collective hearts. When asked for any final thoughts to share with Orlando Weekly readers, Butler revealed another personal mission: “I want people to start bands. … It’s ultimately gatekeeping that keeps a lot of people who otherwise would start great bands and put out great music from doing so, especially women, people of color, queer people. Everybody out there, consider this your formal invitation to start a band.” We eagerly anticipate covering those of you who accept this invite. music@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

BY B AO L E - H U U GETTING AWAY WITH IT | PHOTO BY JEN CRAY

This week, a record store goes after-hours with a legendary local DJ and the Circle rolls deep.

GETTING AWAY WITH IT FRIDAYS, REMIX RECORD SHOP, JULY 5

Dig this, kids. Once upon a time, people had to purchase music! Even more fantastical, they had to travel – over mountain and wood – to record shops to procure it on physical media, arcane materials like wax, disc, tape and probably flint or something. Some of these record shops even developed into outposts of society unto themselves. Seriously! Watch High Fidelity, Pretty in Pink, even Empire Records if you must. Remnants of that great culture still remain in Orlando. But apart from Park Ave CDs’ well-known in-store performances, record store events are slim pickings. A notable one that’s been happening on the reg this year, however, is Getting Away With It at Remix Record Shop. Anchored by local legend and walking, spinning music library DJ Smilin’ Dan, Friday nights at this Mills 50 spot have become an after-hours happening. From 9 p.m. on, he spins live while the store becomes a music bar. In case you couldn’t deduce from the name, Getting Away With It is dedicated to classic alternative music (circa 1980-1994). More than just an Electronic reference though, Smilin’ Dan flexes this weekly hang as an opportunity to reach way down into the crates and break out deep cuts, something he couldn’t always do at his popular nights at Independent Bar and Cairo. On this recent visit, the focus was on 1980s alternative music videos, so the scene in the shop was essentially an

Getting Away With It, anchored by DJ Smilin’ Dan, has turned Friday nights at Remix Record Shop into an afterhours happening in-person, live-mixed 120 Minutes. With all the colorful, generation-defining time stamps, it almost doesn’t get any more pop-culturally transporting than that. The wide and prismatic setlist included the Chameleons, Suicidal Tendencies, Cabaret Voltaire, Boxcar, the Beautiful South and beyond into Shazam-necessitating depths (Hubert Kah, anyone?). Between the sounds and images, it was a trip that showed how immersive and even novel a tried theme can be when done with this much scope and memory. Conceived as an event, GAWI is an intimate, relaxed gathering that embodies the ideal of the record shop as something beyond mere place of commerce. Besides, any vinyl shop that’s equipped with a permanent pro DJ booth is legit in my book. Go listen, hang and talk music with some true heads.

THE CIRCLE WITH HANNAH HARBER, DEXTER’S WINTER PARK, JULY 2

The Circle continues to be one of the most compelling singer-songwriter showcases going right now, with a constantly reloading roster of talent and a format that bares souls through the cover

songs they hand-pick to perform for it. Usually led by local Southern rock savior Thomas Wynn, a recent edition was instead headed by eminent alt-country artist Hannah Harber, who added cred to a deep bill featuring some of Central Florida’s most impressive Americana voices. Will Quinlan has long been one of the most respected names from the Tampa Bay area for good reason, and local Patrick Hagerman recently upped his profile with one of the best performances at Terri Binion’s auspicious Duets event. Between the three refined twangsters emerged an evening of thoughtful song selections played with love and integrity. Harber continued her sterling streak of tasteful Americana choices (Guy Clark, Patty Griffin, Townes Van Zandt, etc.); Quinlan drew from a nicely varied repertoire (Gillian Welch, R.E.M., Tom Petty, Faces, Neil Young and Drivin’ N Cryin’) and graced them with the silver of his immaculate and sylvan voice. Hagerman proved to be an all-around force, taking the guitar leads for the group with conviction. In the renditions of his picks (Jason Isbell, Robert Earl Keen, Wilco and Dylan), he showed deep, churning soul but earned the night’s biggest points when he went local with an excellent Terri Binion cover. And bonus for not just covering Lucinda Williams but referring to her as the person “who sings backup vocals for Terri Binion.” To recap, that’s 17 interesting covers just for this one show. It’s what happens every Tuesday at the Circle. And seeing how it’s gone so far, the Circle is turning out to be as fresh and evergreen as it was designed to be. baolehuu@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

She quickly gained massive popularity online, and has since become a social media celebrity, singer, dancer, New York Times best-selling author and Nickelodeon star. Known for her peppy pop sound and high-energy choreography, 16-year-old Siwa will be performing songs from her first album, D.R.E.A.M. The Music. Be ready for lots of bows, sparkles and bright colors! – Clarissa Moon

In yet another programming coup, Enzian Theater shows Last Year at Marienbad Saturday, but you might need to drink an extra espresso that morning to get prepared. Alain Resnais’ French New Wave classic tells the story of a couple (maybe?) who encounter each other again (maybe?) at the hotel where they first met (maybe?). We won’t snow you: This is one of those films that requires a little brainwork. In the liner notes for its DVD reissue, Criterion says, “Alain Resnais’ epochal Last Year at Marienbad (L’année dernière à Marienbad) has been puzzling appreciative viewers for decades”; Enzian itself calls it “one of the great, lasting mysteries of modern art.” So yeah, Drop Dead Gorgeous this isn’t. But it is one of the most gorgeous films ever made, and on a big screen, should be positively dazzling. If you aren’t up to puzzling out a theory of the plot, just revel in the glittering sets, the dazzling gardens and the haunted face of Delphine Seyrig in the gloriously silvery black-and-white of this new 4K restoration. – Jessica Bryce Young

Bastille Day Bash EVENTS

OUR PICKS FOR THE BEST EVENTS THIS WEEK

38

Every time we look at Twitter we wonder if this is the day when America is going to storm the barricades. (Courage! It’s never too late, mes amis!) But if your interest in all things French runs more toward the cheese and wine, less toward the guillotine, this annual Audubon Park event is for you. There’s a Frenchstyle flea market starting at 3 p.m., a French wine and cheese pairing at 4 p.m., a French wine dinner at 7 p.m., a Moulin Rouge-style burlesque show at 8:30 p.m. – and of course an appearance by Marie Antoinette, who’ll make the scene at the market between 5 and 6:30 p.m. (Please, no unsheathed blades near la Princesse’s neck.) Whether you find yourself loudly humming “The Song of Angry Men” these days or you’re just in it for the baguette fencing, you’re certain to find something ce qui vous plaira. – JBY events begin at 3 p.m. | various locations within the Audubon Park Garden District | audubonparkgardens.com/bastille-dayorlando-event | various prices

NKOTB MUSIC

Pioneering Bostonian boy-band NKOTB (New Kids on the Block no more) are back, helming a blockbuster tour heavy on nostalgia for a golden age of pop-radio and MTV’s best days. And their “Mixtape Tour” is oh-so-perfectly timed for the summer, when nostalgia for the carefree days of youth hits a goddamned fever pitch. Think of this show as a live and in-person version of a vintage teen mixtape – precious handmade cassettes chock full of songs carefully taped off the radio, boombox-style – and even NKOTB aside, the tour’s lineup is eye-popping: Salt N Pepa, Naughty by Nature, Tiffany and Debbie Gibson. So many hits, so many long-ago summer soundtracks. Since we’re neck-deep in a post-everything age where cool points don’t matter, this weekend is the perfect time to let your non-freak flag fly. Or to just hang tough with the original kidz. – Matthew Moyer with Salt N Pepa, Debbie Gibson, Tiffany, Naughty by Nature | 8 p.m. | Amway Center, 400 W. Church St. | amwaycenter.com | 407-440-7000 | $19–$946.50

Curse Mackey MUSIC

PHOTO BY VICTORIA RENARD

We said it before when David J came through town a few weeks ago, and we’ll say it again about Curse Mackey and SINE’s Orlando show this weekend: You expressed your heartfelt gratitude online for Mackey and SINE helping David J rally and save the day after Peter Murphy’s (second) last-minute cancellation, and this weekend you’ll have the chance to do it in person. Curse Mackey is best known as a member of heavyweight electro-industrial collective Pigface, disco-Satanists My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult, and his own outfit Evil Mothers. Austinites SINE, meanwhile, are very quickly elbowing their way to the top of the dark-rock class. Oh, and speaking of Pigface, Martin Atkins of Invisible Records, Ministry, PIL and Pigface fame is a late addition to the bill to … do whatever the hell he wants. That’s a show right there, but there’s more. Props to the touring acts for taking a chance on newer and more diverse electronic projects as local support, so you’ve got EBM/dark-synth berserker Mother Juno and improv-techno alchemist and underground stalwart Bacon Grease filling out the lineup. This is shaping up to be a fine, fine Saturday night. – MM with SINE, Mother Juno, Martin Atkins, Bacon Grease | 8 p.m. | Will’s Pub, 1042 N. Mill’s Ave. | willspub.org | $10-$13

Commando in Orlando COMEDY

The Humor Mill Orlando, an improv and sketch comedy group, is celebrating their 10th anniversary with their 17th original production. The show, which will also be performed the following Saturday, pokes fun at Orlando with “a love letter wrapped in a stack of hate mail.” Sounds about right, we’d say. – CM 8 p.m. | Lowndes Shakespeare Center, 812 E. Rollins Ave. | 407-340-8574 | thehumormillorlando.com | $16-$30

Bill & Ted Double Feature FILM

Now that the world is experiencing a full-blown Keanu-ssance, it’s time to revisit the pre-John Wick, pre-“You’re Beautiful!”, even pre-Sad Keanu oeuvre of the internet’s current boyfriend, Keanu Reeves. The Bill & Ted movies – 1989’s Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure and 1991’s Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey – star Reeves as dimwitted wannabe rock star Ted “Theodore” Logan, alongside his best friend, Bill S. Preston “Esquire,” played by Alex Winter. The first film, which followed the two good-natured doofuses on a trip through history in a time-traveling telephone booth, was a huge hit. And while Bogus Journey may not have quite the charm of the first film, scenes like Bill & Ted challenging a Seventh Seal-inspired Grim Reaper to games like Battleship and Twister are far more clever than they get credit for. Bill & Ted Face the Music, scheduled for release next year, has already started shooting, so now is the perfect time to get together with some strangers to watch these flicks and remember the sacred axioms: “Be excellent to each other” and “Party on, dudes!” – Thaddeus McCollum 8 p.m. | The Nook on Robinson, 2432 E.

B Y DA N S AVAG E

I’m a man from a very liberal background. Recently, a girl I started dating – a girl from a similar background – mentioned that she has “a thing for black guys.” She also met my childhood best friend, a man of Korean descent, and commented to me that she found him handsome despite not typically being attracted to Asian guys. The position that I’ve always held is that we’re attracted to individuals, not types, and it’s wrong to have expectations of people based on race – especially when it comes to sexualizing/ fetishizing people. I think we should date and have sex with whomever we want and not carry prejudiced expectations into our relationships. I am worried she sees black men as stereotypes of athleticism, confidence and the other complicated constructions we’ve made about the black body, like black men having bigger dicks. I also worry that she might see me as less masculine and less well-endowed because of my race. I eventually asked her about these issues, and we had a tense conversation. I tried to ask if she had ever checked herself for possible prejudice where her sexual desires are concerned, and she shut the conversation down by accusing me of trying to control her. I reassured her that I wasn’t trying to control her, but it is possible I was projecting the insecurity her comments stirred into the conversation. I’m trying to balance two components: my own insecurity and the possibility that she’s holding a legitimately prejudiced opinion that makes me uncomfortable. Any advice? Seeking To Interrogate Newish Girlfriend’s Statements It’s a big leap from “I have a thing for black guys” to “white guys aren’t masculine or well-endowed,” STINGS, and you made that leap on your own. So in addition to confronting your new girlfriend about her attitudes and assumptions … you might want to give some thought to your own? That said, the things your girlfriend has said about Black and Asian men are legit problematic. When someone describes their attraction to a certain group, racial or otherwise, as “a thing,” that usually means they see members of that group as things – and in a society that dehumanizes Black people, white people can easily come to see Black people as objects. As for her comment about your Korean friend: Prevailing beauty standards shape our ideas about attractiveness, and those standards are shaped by our rabidly racist culture. A person socialized to only recognize the beauty of men or women of European descent may not even consider – they may not even be able to perceive – the attractiveness of people who aren’t white. 46

And then when someone of a different race does manage to make a blip on their sex radar, it comes as a surprise. But instead of reconsidering their ideas about attractiveness, a dumb fucking white person – even one from a liberal background – is likelier to say something stupid like “I don’t usually find Asian guys hot, but your Korean friend is attractive,” rather than rethinking their assumptions about their desires. Declaring one Asian guy an exception allows someone like your girlfriend to have her racist cake (“I don’t find Asian guys hot”) and eat it too (“But this Asian guy is hot”). It’s a shame your girlfriend reacted defensively when you tried to bring all this up, STINGS, but sometimes people react defensively in the moment and then keep thinking about it. My advice: Keep bringing it up – but it would help if you owned your own shit during these conversations (and you have some shit of your own) rather than just selfrighteously going after your girlfriend for her shit. I have to say, though, I disagree with you on one thing: People do have types, and there’s nothing wrong with having types. It’s a good idea to ask ourselves whether our “types” are actually ours and not just assigned to us by conventional standards of beauty (white, slim, young) or a thoughtless/fetishizing reaction to those standards (a desire to transgress with nonwhite, larger or older folks). I’m a middle-aged African American man. I’m single, I dress well, I’m fit, I cycle to work, I eat healthy, etc. I live in a basement apartment on a narrow street in a large city. My only window faces the street. After showering, and pretty much whenever I’m home, I’m naked while walking around my apartment. A young white couple moved in across the street, and they have an unobstructed view into my apartment. At first I would notice the woman standing at the window looking my way as I toweled off. Then the man as well. And when I masturbate, which I sometimes do after a shower, I noticed them both making several passes by their windows to look. Later I noticed the man coming out late in the evening when the view into my apartment is at its optimum to watch me masturbate. He seems very interested. The woman will come outside and sit on the steps in the morning and look directly into my apartment at me while drinking her coffee. More than once she has run her hand up the inside of her thigh as she’s watching. Also I’ve noticed that their shades, which used to be closed most of the time, are always wide open with lights on so I can clearly see them in their apartment. I’m sure the woman knows that I want her – and the man seems to be

exhibiting bi tendencies (something I’m not interested in at all). In your opinion, are these two voyeurs or a submissive cuckold couple? How should I approach her to seduce? If she’s sitting on her steps, can I go over and say “Good morning” to break the ice? The other day, I left just as she was going out, and we walked past each other. I thought about saying something, but I don’t want to appear to be chasing her. (P.S. What do you make of the man’s behavior?) Display Attracts Neighbors’ Glazed Looks Everyday I once dated a guy who was arrested in his own apartment at 10 in the morning for masturbating in front of an open window. Granted, he lived across the street from a school (a university, not a middle school), and that may have had something to do with it. But he was a white guy, DANGLE, and considering all the ways African American men are targeted by the police, I feel obligated to warn you – well, I feel obligated to warn you about something you already know: Cops are always looking for an excuse to arrest or harass a Black man, and your exhibitionism could attract the attentions not just of horny neighbors, but also the authorities. That said, DANGLE, if everything is as you describe it – if this isn’t a case of dickful thinking on your part – it sounds like this couple is interested. “Interest” is a spectrum, of course, and they could find it interesting to live across the street from a hot, in-shape exhibitionist, and difficult to look away, without actually wanting to be fucked (her) or be cuckolded (him) by you. But if they’re staring into your apartment while you walk around naked and throwing open the curtains so you can stare into theirs, I’d say the ice has already been broken. So say hello the next time you run into them on the street. Keep that first convo light, neighborly and nonsexual, and see where it leads. But if during that first convo they invite you over for a beer sometime … well, that’s a Yahtzee. But even then, don’t make any assumptions or sudden moves: Use your words, draw them out, make sure everyone is on the same page. (P.S. Maybe he’s bi. Maybe he’s a cuck. Maybe he’s the woman’s gay roommate. There’s only one way to find out what’s up with him: Say hello and get to know them.)

Meet Katniss! Katniss (A427122) is a very cautious cat that could benefit from a patient adopter who will give her the time to adjust to her new surroundings. When approached, she usually runs, but when she’s ready to be picked up, she will lie down flat on the floor. She’s very playful, loves her toys (especially the catnip mouse and soft fluffy ball), and has a very pleasant “singing voice” when she’s asking for food. After a long day of naps, snacking on treats, and playing, she likes to lie down on a warm cozy lap and purr until she falls asleep. She is litter box-savvy, vaccinated, FIV/FelV negative and ready to find the puurrfect home. If you are interested in adopting Katniss, email fostercare@ocfl.net! For the month of July, we are featuring our Dapper Dogs & Classy Cats promotion, where the adoption fees for both dogs and cats are only $10. The adoption fees include sterilization, vaccinations and a microchip. Orange County Animal Services is located at 2769 Conroy Road in Orlando, near the Mall at Millenia. The shelter is open 10 a.m. through 6 p.m. Monday through Saturday and from 1 p.m. through 5 p.m. Sunday. For more information, please call 407-836-3111 or visit ocnetpets.com.
