Readers react to blog posts and stories from the July 18 issue. On July 20, we reported that a study released last week by the United Way shows that while Florida’s employment rate improved between 2012 to 2015, 47 percent of the state’s households still cannot afford basic needs. At the same time, Florida’s GDP is worth $1 trillion, making it the 17th largest economy in the world. The ALICE Report, though, found that 67 percent of the jobs in the Sunshine State pay less than $20 per hour, with threequarters of those paying less than $15 per hour. Working full-time at that wage, a worker would earn roughly $30,000 a year – well below the recommended budget of $53,000 a year for a family of four in Florida. @Norma Liza Those that can’t find good paying jobs should go to technical school and learn things like carpentry, plumbing, electrician, HVAC tech. … There is work out there, just too many people want EASY money. @Erika Worlledge Both my boyfriend and myself are paid well above minimum wage and working full time. He has no other degree other than his [high school] diploma and I have
two associate’s and finishing my bachelor’s. However, we can barely stay above water as rent is ridiculously high, then all of the other bills on top of that. We don’t go and spend money wherever and whenever we chose to. … Not everyone is looking for “easy money.” Also on July 20, we reported on state Rep. Janet Cruz, D-Tampa, who called on Gov. Rick Scott to investigate the conditions under which Maryland-based contractor Conduent was permitted to oversee a $287 million upgrade to the SunPass toll system. Since SunPass went offline for a system-wide update, issues have continued to plague normal operations, including millions of unprocessed transactions and duplicate charges. Cruz also called for the state to suspend payments for those who may have been affected by the outage. @Melissa Bush Better not bill us all at once or they’ll have some more lawsuits. @Jeff Smith Just get rid of the tolls altogether. It’s been two months and the world hasn’t quite ended. Stop fleecing Florida’s taxpayers. @April Brockett I refuse to even go through SunPass until this is fixed. So annoying, but oh well!

Wannabe Orlando mayoral candidate is accused of scamming people who wanted to help vets, Anna Eskamani’s ‘fake primary’ opponent drops out, Orange County schools are spending millions on security and other news you may have missed last week. »
Paul Paulson sued for running ‘sham charity’: Former Orlando
»
Anna Eskamani’s opponent drops out of the race for Florida House: Lou Forges, an Ocoee Democrat running against Anna
mayoral candidate Paul Paulson is being sued after six states and the Federal Trade Commission accused him of running his nonprofit Help the Vets Inc. as a “sham charity.” The lawsuit was settled before it was filed, with Paulson agreeing to pay $1.75 million to legitimate veterans charities, which is more than double the amount he personally received from Help the Vets, Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi’s office said. Help the Vets received $11 million from 2014 to 2016 from donors who were promised their contributions would help wounded and disabled military veterans, according to a federal lawsuit. But more than 95 percent of that money almost entirely benefited Paulson and the for-profit fundraisers he hired. Paulson, a Republican, ran against incumbent Mayor Buddy Dyer in 2015, ultimately losing by 30 points despite spending about $800,000.
Eskamani in House District 47, dropped out of the race last week. Forges’ resignation comes after a Leon County judge agreed to hear a lawsuit filed by Eskamani, which claimed he was unqualified to run as a candidate because his wife notarized the paperwork submitted to the state Division of Elections. Brenden Boyle, Forges’ treasurer and consultant, told Orlando Weekly he didn’t feel right about continuing with the campaign after their attorneys said there was just too much of a chance that he could be disqualified. Eskamani has stated the opinion that Forges was “exploited by the Republican party,” whose sole purpose was to set up a “fake” primary to stop Democrats from flipping the seat.

Orange County schools will spend more than $11 million to ramp up security efforts: Orange County Public Schools are set to spend an additional $11.6 million to boost security measures on campus in the coming year. The district said last week it would remain mum on the details for now, citing a state law. OCPS has spent $20.3 million on security measures since 2014 and is currently in the process of spending the additional funds to hire more school police officers and focus on “hardening school facilities, emergency preparations, preventative measures and mental health services.”

Judge extends FEMA hotel vouchers for Puerto Rican evacuees until Aug. 6: A federal judge has again ordered FEMA to
extend its hotel voucher program for Puerto Rican evacuees, this time until midnight Aug. 6. Earlier this month, U.S. District Judge Timothy Hillman directed the federal agency to extend its Transitional Shelter Assistance Program until July 23 for about 1,200 Puerto Rican households displaced from the island by Hurricane María. About 600 of those families were staying in hotels across Florida. The initial extensions from the court came after LatinoJustice PRLDEF filed a lawsuit against FEMA, alleging the federal agency “arbitrarily, capriciously and unlawfully” cut off the hotel voucher program for Puerto Rican evacuees after eight months, unlike its response to victims of other natural disasters. The new deadline would allow Puerto Rican families to stay at hotels until checkout time on the morning of Aug. 7.

The Center will open Kissimmee location on Aug. 15:
The LGBT+ Center of Orlando will open its new Kissimmee location at 21 W. Monument Ave. with a grand opening ceremony on Aug. 15 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. George Wallace, executive director of the LGBT+ Center of Orlando, told Orlando Weekly that he wanted to build a place that’s welcoming and friendly, whether guests are looking for resources, health screenings or to use a computer lab. About 30 percent of people coming to the Center in Orlando for free HIV and hepatitis C screenings are from Kissimmee, which shows there’s a clear demand for a Center in Osceola County. orlandoweekly.com

Welcome to Orlando Weekly’s latest semi-regular column, a scatter graph where we rank Sunshine State pols’ behavior each week. Candidate making crowd-savvy moves? Elected official got a case of foot-inmouth disease? Read about it here.
SHREWD
U.S. REP. VAL DEMINGS: Someone get this lady some elbow grease, because Demings is putting in the work. A member of the House Homeland Security Committee, not only has she recently leveraged her position on the panel to help include Orlando to the list of metropolitan areas eligible for federal anti-terrorism grants, she’s also helped lead the charge in pushing bipartisan legislation that would help combat the threat of Russian meddling in the coming November midterms.
JEFF GREENE: If Greene wins the Democratic nomination for Florida governor, apparently he’s committed to helping his fellow blue jackasses, er, donkeys up and down the ticket by investing his own money. Or at least, that’s what Greene – who’s worth $3.8 billion – said at last week’s debate at Florida Gulf Coast University in Fort Myers. For the voters he’s trying to woo, it’s essentially a breadcrumb trail made out of dollar bills, and it leads all the way to the ballot box. The question stands, though: Should we congratulate someone who more or less says they’re willing to buy Democratic victories across Florida?
AGRICULTURE COMMISSIONER ADAM PUTNAM: This guy – a selfdescribed “proud NRA sellout” – can’t get anything right, especially for someone who thinks he’s qualified to be Florida’s next governor. With U.S. Rep. Ron DeSantis gaining heavily on Putnam in the polls leading up the Aug. 28 GOP primary, as well as having to deal with a scandal after his office bungled the required national background checks for concealed weapons permits, surely Putnam is hearing the private sector begin to softly whisper his name.
MEAN
QUEEN
ANNA ESKAMANI: When Democratic Florida House candidate Eskamani suddenly got a primary opponent, Lou Forges, she suspected GOP trickery: He might be a Republican plant whose sole purpose was to set up a “fake primary.” She also noticed that his wife notarized the paperwork submitted to the state Division of Elections, which is illegal, and filed a lawsuit claiming he was unqualified to run because of it. Forges dropped out of the race last week.

THE PERSISTENCE OF RESISTANCE On the one-year anniversary of Billy Manes’ death, we stop to wonder what he would make of this shitshow administration. BY JE FFREY C. BILL M A N
There are times at which this
Congress and the rank-and-file throughadministration overloads my capacity for out the country – aren’t fleeing for the outrage, and this past week was one of hills. Quite the opposite, actually. An NBC/Wall Street Journal poll released them. From the Helsinki “summit,” in which over the weekend found Trump’s approvPresident Trump prostrated himself al steady at 45 percent after this shitshow, before Russia’s authoritarian thug on the buoyed by near-record intraparty support world stage days after Robert Mueller among Republicans. Tribalism is a hell of indicted 12 Russian intelligence officers a drug. Again, keeping up with this perpetual for election interference, to Trump’s subsequent suggestion that the U.S. should outrage is exhausting – overwhelming, abandon its obligations to NATO because even. Trying to find insightful ways to no one really cares about Montenegro, write about it is even more so. So I wanted a country that Russia very much wants to pause from trying to make sense of this to separate from the West; from Trump senselessness and talk about something continuing to blast the media as the “real at once sadder and more uplifting and enemy of the people” just weeks after hopeful. I wanted to talk about death. a gunman murdered five journalists in Not death in the abstract, but one Maryland, to the Trump-loving NRA being exposed as easy marks for a Russian specific death: Saturday, when I started spy; from the release of the FISA warrant writing this column, was the one-year anniversary of the day I application for forand perhaps two dozen mer Trump adviser/ of Billy Manes’ closlikely Russian asset est friends and family Carter Page, which members crowded into proved to anyone a small hospice room who could read that at Orlando Regional the Republicans had Medical Center and been lying about the watched a brilliant origins of the Russia Saturday, July 21, light dim.

Billy was my friend and my brother, and not a day goes by that I don’t miss him. I think not a day goes by that the world – at least this corner of it – misses him, too, whether it realizes it or not. Reporters (like me) come and go. Columnists (also like me) are usually disposable and quickly forgotten. Voices that define and uplift communities are rare diamonds. Billy was one of those. I spent the weekend listening to Duran Duran and Alison Moyet and thinking about the conversations I’d be having with Billy were he still here, especially how hilarious he’d find it that a Russian agent was apparently able to fuck her way through the conservative movement. I also thought about how brave Billy was, to channel his own grief into power. After his longtime partner Alan died of suicide by gun in 2012, Billy became a poster child for marriage equality (he had a long fight with Alan’s family over the estate) and a champion of gun reforms. In the aftermath of Pulse, the issues of LGBTQ rights and gun reforms converged and defined Billy’s work, to the point where it took a toll on him personally. He was tireless, and he never stopped, even when he probably should have. Billy realized that his life and his place in Orlando was about more than him. Sure, he usually reveled in being Billy Fucking Manes, as he referred to the persona most people knew him as. That character was a piece of Billy, but not all of him.

a better place for people who had been marginalized and cast aside. There’s no way around the fact that Billy had a difficult upbringing. But he was able to use all that hurt to transform himself into something more than just one man, more than just one writer, more than just one friend. In so many ways, he used some of the worst experiences you could imagine to turn himself into the best of us. I’ll always admire him for that. Billy’s death, as it turned out, occurred on the one-year anniversary of Donald Trump formally accepting the Republican nomination for the president with a long, dark speech that painted this country as some sort of post-apocalyptic hellscape from which only he could save us. It was a rambling missive full of dissembling and disinformation, meant to evoke racial anxieties, wrapped in the kind of narcissism befitting the authoritarian regimes Trump so plaintively admires. Coming a few weeks after Pulse, it terrified Billy. It didn’t terrify the rest of us enough. feedback@orlandoweekly.com JULY 25-31, 2018 ● ORLANDO WEEKLY

Residents push back as Seminole County considers privatizing its public library system. BY XANDER P ETERS
O
n a sweltering Saturday morning, they were few in numbers as they hollered and waved their signs on the sidewalk outside Jean Rhein Central Branch Library in Casselberry. Cars honked at the ragtag group of protesters – some of whom were gray-headed, others without hair at all – and they yelled louder in return. Their purpose: Seminole County is considering privatizing its public library system, and they want the public to understand what’s at stake. “I wish we could get more people aware of what the consequences are, other than the obvious people who come into the bookstore and come into the library and see what we’re doing,” says Ross Pegano, president of Friends of the Library, a nonprofit group that supports libraries in communities across the country. “They’re appalled by it – they say libraries should be public and run by the county, not turned over to a private organization or a for-profit organization, particularly when it’s out of state.” Pegano is referring to the fact that, in early June, Seminole County officials issued a “request for proposal” to outsource the management and operation of its public library system. Although no decision has been made, one of the proposals submitted was by Library Systems and Services, a Maryland-based government contractor that specializes in taking over and managing (for profit) libraries across the U.S.. Of the nation’s more than 9,000 public libraries, according to the company’s website, LSS manages more than 80. Often the company takes over libraries facing do-ordie problems, such as lack of management or inefficient spending, among other issues. However, none of that applies to Seminole’s public libraries. In fact, an overview of statistics on Florida’s libraries found that the Seminole’s libraries have been one of the lowest-cost systems for the last five years. In the cost per resident categories, the library system actually ranked No. 1 statewide. And in the area of how effective the library is at delivering services to its patrons, it ranked fourth overall. So why exactly would Seminole want to push for privatization, especially considering that it has one of the better public education systems in the state? Do the two factors not mirror each other? “I don’t disagree,” says Joe Abel, director of leisure services at Seminole County,
the department that oversees the county library system. “If we don’t find equal to or better level of service that is quantifiable at a cost less than what we’re doing right now, it absolutely makes no sense.” Abel goes on to stress that it isn’t a done deal, and that the county hasn’t made a decision. But not every resident agrees with that assessment. “I’ve been on both sides of the fence,” says Friends of the Library volunteer Wendy Shiner, referring to her career in grant writing and construction management. “I understand that if you cannot make a profit then you close up shop, because you have to have a balanced checkbook when you have a for-profit business.” Shiner says she sees the ultimate motivation for library cost-cutting in a measure coming up on the ballot in November that would grant homeowners an additional homestead tax exemption of $25,000 for homes valued greater than $100,000. That could mean a loss in property tax revenues of up to $11 million for the county. When news broke of the county’s request for proposals, Pegano says he suggested that the Friends of the Library submit their own proposal to take over the library’s management instead of LSS. So they did. “We don’t want to change anything,” Pegano says of his group’s proposal to manage the library. “If we find that there are places for improvement, certainly, we’ll entertain those. But we want to keep the library as it is. People are happy with it.” Pegano adds that the ideal situation would be for the county to keep maintaining the library system, while Friends of the Library continues to raise the more than $80,000 it donates to the library annually for its programs. “The worse scenario is giving it to LSS, because the library as you currently see it will be gone,” Pegano says. “The county pays real well and has good benefits for all of their employees. All the current employees, over a period of time, will probably lose their jobs and be replaced by people who are just clerks.” A local LSS representative declined to comment for this story due to the pending proposal process. Seminole County Public Library employees also declined to comment for this story. feedback@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

OBSERVERS AT THE SASHA GARDEN VIGIL | PHOTOS BY MONIVETTE CORDEIRO
SAY HER NAME A transgender woman was murdered in Orlando last week – and how it was reported was awful. BY MON IVETTE COR D EI R O A N D COL I N WOL F
A
transgender woman was found dead last week at an Orlando apartment complex. The Orange County Sheriff’s Office says her body, which had signs of trauma, was found at around 5 a.m. behind the Reserve at Lake Buchanan Apartments on Holden Avenue, near Orange Blossom Trail. As of Monday, deputies were still looking for the suspect who killed her. The woman was identified as Sasha Garden, 27, by her family and friends. Garden was originally from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where the majority of her family lives, her cousin Yolanda Davis said. Days after her murder, Davis remembered Garden for her love of hard candy and her open heart. “Sasha was just Sasha,” she says. “Her

biggest thing was to provide for her family. She didn’t take shit. She was always a kind person. Everybody has their mean days – ain’t nobody perfect. But at the end of the day she was genuine. She didn’t sugarcoat it.” Garden liked to wear her hair long and appreciated the glittery things in life. Davis said her cousin was the only one allowed to touch her hair because Garden was such a talented stylist. “My baby is gone,” Davis says. “We’re still in disbelief. I want to know who was angry enough to beat my little cousin to death.” Garden had been living in Orlando on and off for the past two years, according to Mulan Montrese Williams, an advocate for transgender women and outreach ●

coordinator for the HIV/AIDS organization Miracle of Love. “She was traveling a lot, trying to find a new home and find herself,” she says. Montrese Williams says her house is known as a safe haven for transgender women who are doing sex work – she passes out condoms, gives out water bottles and does HIV testing. Garden was a sex worker who dreamed of opening her own hair salon, though her current financial goal had been saving up money for transition-related medical expenses, Montrese Williams says. She believes it’s likely that Garden was working just before she was found dead. Montrese Williams used to be a sex worker. This isn’t the first time she’s had to identify a trans woman killed while doing sex work. LGBTQ advocates say trans women of color, especially black women, face increased levels of violence. “I know how it is,” she says. “You know when something happens, we don’t call police. We don’t want to be judged by the police. We don’t want to be misgendered by officers – they still tell us, ‘We have to call you by your government name, what’s on your ID.’”
Montrese Williams says Sasha Garden was very outgoing but misunderstood. “She was a firecracker – very outspoken,” she says. “She didn’t hold her tongue for anyone or anybody. Her womanhood was one of those things she stood up for. She didn’t tolerate any disrespect at all.” Montrese Williams says Orange County deputies came to her house around 7:30 a.m. for her help identifying Garden. “They were very uneducated,” Montrese Williams says of the deputies. “As soon as I opened the door, I get, ‘I hear a bunch of transvestites stay here.’ I had to let them know, I’m a transgender woman and I’m the only one that stays here.” Montrese Williams corrected the deputies’ terminology and after identifying Garden from a photo of her body, made sure to tell deputies her name was “Sasha” and that she was a trans woman. “[The deputy] acted like he couldn’t even pronounce transgender,” she says. Despite Montrese Williams telling deputies that Sasha Garden was a trans woman, OCSO sent out a news alert using Garden’s dead name and describing her as a 27-year-old man from Jacksonville, who “was wearing a wig and was dressed as a female.” Naturally, after the Orange County Sheriff’s Office released their report to the media, Orlando television stations followed suit with headlines that described her with outdated and disrespectful phrases. “Man wearing wig, dressed as woman found dead at Orange County apartment complex, deputies say” was the headline WESH applied to their story, while WFTV went with “Man dressed as a woman found dead behind apartment near Orange Blossom Trail, deputies say.” Garden’s friends called the stations, desperately asking them to respectfully issue a correction. They were initially rebuffed. When reached for comment, the news director for WFTV said they only report what the police give them. WESH had a similar response, admitting that people had contacted them saying the victim was transgender and went by the name “Sasha” and requesting a correction. After they went back to OCSO with this information, the WESH news director said, they decided the station couldn’t change the story because while authorities did confirm that Garden was a trans woman, the gender marker on her driver’s license said “male.” Local LGBTQ support group QLatinx released a statement regarding the articles by WESH and WFTV, describing them as “flagrant disrespect” and a “desecration of her memory.” OCSO did finally send an updated report, six hours after the original, refer-
ring to Garden as “transgender.” At that point, local TV stations finally updated their headlines – WESH referred to her as a “transgender woman,” and WFTV called Garden a “woman.” But six hours in the news cycle is an eternity, and the damage was already done. Stories were already shared. Page views were already logged. The people who read the stories on Facebook or Twitter had already snickered at the headlines. However, not everyone got it wrong. Ryan Gillespie’s story for the Orlando Sentinel was simply headlined “Body discovered outside at Holden Avenue apartment complex, deputies say.” This follows the Associated Press Stylebook guidelines for reporting on transgender and gender-nonconforming people. OCSO told Orlando Weekly that they currently do not have any written policy for discussing the trans community in crime reports. However, spokesperson Jane Watrel added they do have a trans deputy, Rebecca Storozuk, and the office does have a policy for “providing equitable opportunities in hiring and promoting transgender and gender non-conforming employees.” Three days after Garden’s murder, Orange County Sheriff Jerry Demings finally issued an apology. “In the early stages of this homicide investigation, the OCSO released details regarding the legal name of the victim as required by state statute, along with other details that might assist detectives in solving this heinous crime,” Demings said in a statement. “At that time the Orange County Sheriff’s Office did not know the individual was transgender and had only one goal in mind, finding and apprehending a suspect.” Demings said after OCSO public information officers were made aware by family and friends that Garden was a trans woman, they “immediately” began using the appropriate gender and recognized name. “The Orange County Sheriff ’s Office did not intend to be insensitive in this effort and I along with agency members apologize for any misgivings our communications may have caused,” Demings said. “As Sheriff, I am proud to report that the Orange County Sheriff ’s Office continues to have a positive relationship and open dialogue with members of the LGBTQ community, and we will seek additional measures to further strengthen that bond in the days
ahead.” By contrast, the Orlando Police Department has had a written policy on the matter since 2015. Degrading Garden’s existence by referring to her as a “man who dressed up as a woman” was not only a lapse in judgment from both our television stations and our law enforcement – it also completely erased her identity. OCSO should have known that the report was humiliating to Garden and her survivors, and Orlando’s media should have known that provocative headlines don’t trump showing respect to the deceased. At a weekend vigil for Garden at the apartment complex where her body was found, local transgender women said they are still hurt by the way law enforcement and the media had described their community. “Pardon my language, but I call [the apology] bullshit,” says Tiara Kelley, an LGBTQ advocate who helped organize the vigil. “I call it absolute bullshit. Being trans in Orlando is not new. The Orange County Sheriff’s Department, the Orlando Police Department, they know about transgender people. For them to call her a ‘man in a dress’ on television and then correct it eight hours later, the damage is already done. Eight hours later, it’s already too late. That gives people the opportunity to make fun and light of this, and that’s why we’re not taken seriously because of stuff like this. That narrative has to stop.” OCSO urges anyone with information to call the Crimeline at 800-423-TIPS [8477]. Information that leads to an arrest may result in a $5,000 reward. feedback@orlandoweekly.com

Orlando’s Hard Rock Cafe boasts the biggest musical memorabilia collection of any restaurant in the globe-spanning chain, and they offer daily complimentary guided “Vibe Tours” every afternoon and evening. Inquire about availability at the podium in the main lobby, and you may find yourself inside ordinarily off-limits areas like the Attic and the Lennon Room, exploring musical instruments and artifacts representing everyone from the Beatles to Bootsy
Collins. If you want more, walk or take the free water taxi to the Hard Rock Hotel, where QR codes let your smartphone lead you on a selfdirected tour of costumes worn by Lady Gaga, Rihanna and J.Lo. Visit hardrockhotelorlando.com/memora bilia.htm for a guide to all the garb.

he giant Icon Orlando 400-foot tall observation wheel (formerly known as the Coca-Cola Orlando Eye, and before that simply the Orlando Eye) continues to roll along on International Drive, and we’re still awaiting the start of construction on the 501-foot Polercoaster at Joshua Wallack’s proposed Skyplex up the street. Now those nosebleed-inducing structures have another skyscraping neighbor in the newly opened Starflyer, billed as the tallest ride of its type in the world. Just picture that old-fashioned fair favorite, the spinning swing ride – only set so high up in the
air that you can see the coast on a clear day. Guests ride in 24 tandem seats which are attached to the 450-foot-tall tower by metal chains, and which reach speeds of up to 45 mph while circling more than 40 stories above the cement. DO save a couple bucks off the $13 ticket by buying online, and DO avail yourself of the Star Bar for some liquid courage ( just a little) before riding. DON’T drop your smartphone from the top while trying to take a selfie, as seen in a recent viral video.

f you survive your spin aboard the Starflyer and feel the need to memorialize the occasion with a memento mori, stumble next door to Skeletons for Orlando’s best selection of bone-based souvenirs. You can browse through the gift shop up front for free and even buy a defleshed feline for your mantelpiece, but the Museum of Osteology in the back is worth the $10 admission fee (with advance online purchase). This is the most macabre family-friendly educational attraction at the Icon 360 complex, featuring the real remains of over 500 animals, reconstructed
in dynamic poses amid detailed dioramas. Highlights of the collection include an elephant, a giraffe and a 22-foot-long orca, but our favorite is the case full of live flesheating beetles. Because there’s nothing kids enjoy more than watching a rotting carcass being devoured by insects! Much like the Starflyer, you’ll probably want to save eating at one of the Icon complex’s many restaurants until after your tour.

one-day parkhopper ticket at Walt Disney World or Universal Orlando now costs upward of $175, but you can find some of our area’s finest thrill rides for less than one-third the price at Central Florida’s two Fun Spot locations. Start your day at the Kissimmee location next to Old Town with Mine Blower, which opened in 2017 as the only wooden roller coaster in Florida with an upside-down barrel roll. This intense coaster is a blast, but far bumpier than a nearly brand-new ride should be, so you might as well get it out of the way before braving the 300-footorlandoweekly.com

Fun Spot stays open until midnight, and the parks’ competitive go-kart tracks are far more enjoyable when they’re not baking in the sun.

T Pearl, one of Gatorland’s seven white alligators
I
f the Gator Spot exhibit at Fun Spot isn’t big enough to satiate your saurian appetite, slither southbound along the Orange Blossom Trail to a place where Central Florida’s legacy of pre-Disney roadside attractions still proudly lives on. Founded in 1946 by entrepreneurs Owen and Pearl Godwin, Gatorland has long advertised itself as Orlando’s “best half-day attraction,” but fans of flora and fauna can easily expend a full afternoon exploring the park’s 110 acres of verdant swampland. Alligators are obviously the attraction’s marquee stars – from the iconic open-jaw entryway to the signature Gator Jumparoo show, where leapin’ lizards lunge for their
lunch – but there are also plenty of feathered and furry residents, including a bounty of breeding birds and a pair of protected Florida panthers. Single day adult admission is under $30, and an annual pass is only $15 more, but daredevils will want to spring for a slide down the 1,200 foot-long Screamin’ Gator zip line, if only for the bird’s eye view of the alligator breeding marsh. Don’t depart without trying the deep-fried gator nuggets from Pearl’s Good Eats; yes, they taste like chicken.
he City Beautiful boasts a bounty of public parks, including Dickson Azalea, Lake Eola and Leu Gardens. But the “City of Culture and Heritage,” Winter Park, is home to Mead Botanical Garden, a 48-acre “urban oasis” located near Loch Haven. Mead Garden tends to fly under the radar, with many neighboring residents only vaguely aware of its existence. That’s partly because, aside from weekly yoga and tai chi classes, Mead doesn’t hold many regularly scheduled activities, though they are looking to host more cultural events like Christie Miga’s
recent “Luminosities” art opening. But the facility is free to visit from 7:30 a.m. until dusk daily, and the grounds – a wetland wilderness full of foliage and waterfowl – are ideal for hiking, biking, bird-watching or simply picnicking. Mead is even home to the region’s first geocache location, if you’re still into that pre-Pokemon Go GPS-based game. And if you’re searching for an unconventional outdoor wedding venue, Mead’s amphitheater is tough to beat.

Feeding a lemur at Safari Wilderness
S
o, you’re eager to go on an expedition to see exotic animals and Animal Kingdom’s Kilimanjaro Safari isn’t authentic enough for you, but a flight to Africa is out of the budget. Plot a course for Safari Wilderness in Lakeland, where herds of wild game roam free across 260 undeveloped acres a mere six miles away from I-4. Call ahead to book a safari truck for a $90, two-and-a-half-hour guided tour of the property, complete with the opportunity to feed waterbuck, Watusi cattle and water buffalo from the open-sided vehicles.
(The truck is a bit bumpy, but far less bruising than the optional camel-back rides.) Or show up for a $39 Young Explorers Safari, a 45-minute introductory tour held on Friday, Saturday and Sunday afternoons from May through August; similar Critter Christmas walk-up tours are offered over the holidays. Whichever experience you pick, don’t miss the park’s most adorable attraction: a colony of adorable guinea pigs that guests can hand-feed.

BY SETH KUBERSKY PAT GREENE AND FRIENDS IN FRONT OF THE GALLERY AT AVALON ISLAND | PHOTO BY ANNA MCCAMBRIDGE-THOMAS
In Life of Pi, author Yann Martel
writes, “I suppose in the end, the whole of life becomes an act of letting go, but what always hurts the most is not taking a moment to say goodbye.” Last issue, we tipped our fur-trimmed hats farewell to Harriett Lake, and in the two years since Pulse we’ve had to mourn the untimely departures of far too many other members of our creative community. This week, we sadly say “See you later” to an irreplaceable instigator of Orlando’s arts scene, but at least Patrick Greene isn’t shuffling off this mortal coil – he’s just getting the hell out of the country. Last Thursday, during Greene’s final show as curator of the Gallery at Avalon Island, friends and fellow artists raised glasses of champagne while Commissioner Regina Hill read Mayor Buddy Dyer’s official proclamation declaring July 19, 2018, as “Patrick Greene Day.” It’s a fitting capstone for the Florida career of a man whose beloved grandmother Edee Greene, a pioneering feminist journalist, has her own day in Broward County. And while Greene may have appeared uncomfortable with the outpouring of praise, he’s more than earned it with artistic contributions across four decades that helped shape our town’s cultural character. Listing every local artistic project Pat Greene ever spearheaded – whether as a visual artist, radio host, writer, producer, director or promoter – would easily fill this page and then some. I first mentioned Greene in this column when covering the Art for Haiti charity auction he organized in 2010 with Greg Leibowitz, and he really caught my attention in 2012 with “Walk On By,” a citywide project for which my wife installed cardboard monsters and
Pat Greene is leaving Orlando, and we don’t want to talk about it. But we have to.
choreographed dancers along the Mills 50 sidewalks. The following year, I personally participated in his 2013 TrIP (Transit Interpretation Project), which involved me riding a Lynx Route 50 bus from downtown to Disney. Greene’s résumé, which ranges from Nickelodeon props assistant and promotions manager of the Peacock Room to program director of Urban ReThink and member of the Civic Minded Five music presenting group, reads like a rogues’ gallery of Orlando most-missed former venues. But when I asked what he regarded as his greatest accomplishment – TrIP, Walk On By, or perhaps luring Ed Woodham’s worldwide phenomenon Art in Odd Places here – Greene simply said, “I don’t know if there’s a particular thing [but] there’s a theme of community, and staying relevant to the time we live in.” Five years ago, Greene assumed the role of resident curator of the Gallery at Avalon Island, filling the historic Rogers Building with innovative installations and eclectic entertainment. Early this year, owner Ford Kiene donated the 132-year-old property to the city, with the stipulation that it be used for cultural purposes until at least 2038. As a result, the Downtown Arts District is vacating the building they currently occupy at 29 S. Orange Ave. (though SAK will stay put on the second floor), and moving
CityArts Factory into the recently rechristened Rogers-Kiene Building in November. Rotating guests artists will curate the gallery during the remaining months, and the In-Between series Greene launched is scheduled to continue as well. “There’s a thousand reasons why we’ll miss him, and maybe more,” Downtown Arts District executive director Barbara Hartley told me at Greene’s last Third Thursday. “One of the reasons I’ll miss him is because he always has new ideas, he’s so well read and he shares them all. Sometimes it’s exhausting … but he has such a great ability to connect with people he doesn’t know. There aren’t a lot of people who are good with literature, music and art; Pat can do it all.” CityArts’ relocation also required Greene’s removal from Avalon Island’s upstairs apartment (it will be used for artists-in-residence), which resulted in a radical reimagining of his life. He’s off to Costa Rica, where he’ll run a bed & breakfast in a town populated by ex-pats. Ever politically engaged, the former Orlando mayoral candidate is brutally honest about the motivation behind his destination: “Getting out of Trump’s America,” he admits. “They may not let me back in.” The one thing Pat will miss most about Orlando? “The people. My people,” he says, gesturing half-sardonically at the longtime friends around him. “Not him. Not you. Other people.” And how do I really feel about watching Greene sail off into the sunset? What kind of void does his departure leave, and is anyone here capable of filling his voluminous shoes? All I can do is quote Pat’s 2004 mayoral campaign slogan: “I don’t want to talk about it.” skubersky@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

thing) and Greek yogurt with granola nonetheless. Oh, and Turkish tea (with complimentary refills) is included with your vibrant breakfast, but Turkish tea is good any time of day and a few cups along with a cold meat plate ($14.90) makes a simply enjoyable lunch. I say “simply” because what you’re served with the tea is a pineapple wedge, a strawberry and a side of ezme with slices of sourdough bread topped with meat – roast beef, smoked turkey, beef bacon and pastrami. No spreads, toppings or unnecessary embellishments. (Pastrami, by the way, has its roots in pastirma – an airdried, cured meat enjoyed in Byzantium and the Ottoman Empire alike – so keep that in mind next time you pop into Katz’s Deli.) The sourdough bread plate ($13.90) presents a slightly healthier lunchtime option with hummus, avocado, labneh and smoked salmon replacing the cold cuts. The restaurant sits behind the angled midcentury columns that make the Maitland Plaza a looker, but the interior is all coastal farmhouse – bright, woodsy, inviting. You’ll linger, no doubt, but on your way out, pick up a loaf of two of bread ($8) and peruse the display case of muffins, pastries and cookies. I always seem to leave with a bag of oatmeal cookies ($1.50) and another bag of salted caramel brown-butter shortbread cookies ($1.50). They’re a delight, Turkish or otherwise.

ENZO’S HIDEAWAY
Roman-Italian underground speakeasy is possibly the most un-Disney of Disney restaurants – hidden, moodily lit, Decostyled and inviting. Starters like the veg agrodolce and arancini-like suppli’ are worth nibbling on, as is complimentary focaccia baked with cherry tomatoes. Pastas aren’t made in-house, and spaghetti tre formaggi is a textural fail, but beef eaters will certainly get their fill of the bistecca pizzaiolo. The cannoli and tiramisu make gratifying endings.

Gleaming, modern eatery offers its takes on Vietnamese street fare ranging from beautiful banh mis to stellar sticky rice bowls.

TARTINE WINE BAR & EATERIE
College Park’s paean to all things bready focuses on the tartine, of which the roast beef and the mixed mushroom versions are quite gratifying. Other French-leaning dishes – middleneck clams in a spicy white wine broth, escargots baked in a croissant shell, and the tallow candle – are worth a look. Pastries are always worth saving room for, the chocolate mousse on a crunchy hazelnut praline in particular. French beers and a small yet interesting wine list are offered. Closed Mondays and Tuesdays. 2445 Edgewater Drive, 407-845-0016; $$
DAJEN EATS VEGAN CAFÉ & CREAMERY Jamaican vegan fare makes the Citgo on North OBT near Lee Road the most unique gas station in town. Dishes ranging from rice & peas with sweet and spicy cauliflower bites and crispy fried chick’n seitan to “loona toona” sandwiches are offered. Eight different varieties of vegan ice cream fashioned from coconut milk are also sold.

SOUTHERN SPICE
There’s plenty to sample from the stacked menu of usual and unusual suspects of southern Indian fare. Dosa lovers will heartily indulge in the mainstay’s puffy cousin – kuzhi paniyaram – while those with a propensity for more intense flavorings will want the veg Chettinad curry cooked in no less than 28 spices. For a taste less charged, kola urundal ($16) comes spiked with a sprig of fried curry leaves and with magnificent little fried lentil “kofta” lolling in the thickened swell. Whole marinated pompano coated with semolina and pan-fried is a must. Open daily. 7637 Turkey Lake Road, 321-251-2244; $$ n

And, admittedly, this movie will find its audience, much like Callahan’s cartoons did. But a film is not a cartoon. The latter can succeed by amusing or inspiring in small bursts, one panel at a time. But He Won’t Get Far on Foot doesn’t get far on screen because it should have been the equivalent of a graphic novel, not a newspaper scribble. Most disappointing is Mara – not for her performance, but for her character’s almost total vapidity. We don’t understand her motivations, we know almost nothing about her, and she’s given little to do. She’s reduced to wheelchair candy. She deserves better – as does Jack Black, who, as a comedic throwaway, is exploited for his overacting, at least until he makes a poignant reappearance near the end. Among the supporting cast, only Hill is intriguing. Yet even his oddly subdued performance doesn’t fully catch fire. Once Callahan embraced his artistic prowess and dropped his dipsomania, he really went places, despite his injury. Van Sant’s film is also disabled, but unlike Callahan, it can’t conquer its disability.

Mission: Impossible – Fallout
BY ST EVE SCHN EID ER
THIS WEEK: Mission: Impossible – Fallout There’s a nasty series of memes going around that compare the apparent agelessness of Tom Cruise to the physical deterioration of his Top Gun leading lady, Kelly McGillis. Why anyone would raise the specter of Kelly McGillis at this point just for the sake of a cheap putdown is beyond me, especially as she has no career to speak of that she needs to stay in shape for. Then again, maybe she has no career to speak of because the industry is still run by the sort of people who make misogynist memes. They just call them movies. Anyway, Cruise is back in theaters this week with the sixth Mission: Impossible flick, so we can all appreciate his perfectly preserved physiognomy. He actually broke his ankle during filming, causing what was announced as a nine-week halt in the production. But of course, he was back at it after only seven weeks, because he’s Tom Cruise and he’s an immaculate physical specimen. Have I mentioned that? Oh, and this is also the movie that costar Henry Cavill grew his infamous mustache for – the one he couldn’t shave off for his Justice League reshoots, dooming that picture to unwatchability. Mission: Impossible entries have a way of screwing with superhero movies: The extended shooting schedule for 2000’s second chapter forced Dougray Scott to drop out of the role of Wolverine in the first X-Men, thus creating the career of Hugh Jackman. All I can say is, it better be a hell of a ’stache, Henry. Something even Burt Reynolds
would envy. Or at least Kelly McGillis. (Damn, they’ve got me doing it now.) (PG-13) Teen Titans Go! To the Movies Here’s the point at which DC on film becomes totally meta. This spinoff of the goofy animated TV series boasts a voice cast that includes the beloved Will Arnett – but not as Batman, a role he’s verged on owning after his participation in two well-received Lego movies. Meanwhile, Nicolas Cage finally gets to play Superman, a dream he saw dashed when Tim Burton’s 1998 Superman Lives fell apart right before filming was due to start. Listen, somebody has to obsess about stuff like this. Just be thankful I didn’t point out that Lil Yachty is now the second rapper to be cast as Green Lantern. Because nobody needs that. (PG)
ALSO PLAYING: Dhadak The 2016 Marathi-language romance Sairat has been remade a full five times, most recently in this Hindi version. Romeo and Juliet-style conflicts ensue when a boy and girl from different castes meet and fall in love. Hey, at least they’re speaking the same language. Nyuk! (NR; playing at AMC Universal Cineplex 20) Three Identical Strangers A documentary exposé about identical triplets who were separated at birth and raised in very different households as part of a cruel scientific experiment. On the plus side, they never had to fight over the bathroom. (PG-13; playing at Regal Waterford Lakes Stadium 20 & IMAX and AMC Disney Springs 24 with Dine-in Theatres) orlandoweekly.com

THE SINGULARITY After conquering Hollywood, Janelle Monáe returns to claim her pop throne BY MATTHEW WELLER
A
lthough her career was hitting peaks it hadn’t before, Janelle Monáe went into 2018 under quite a bit of pressure. Her last album – the android-themed The Electric Lady – came out an astounding five years ago. On top of that, her professional life had shifted from a complete focus on music to include acting – a transition that elevated her status to cinematic A-lister with critically acclaimed performances in two of 2016’s top movies, Moonlight and Hidden
Figures. But as the year started, Monáe found herself at a crossroads where a flop album could very well have the world urging her to stick to movies, à la Jared Leto and Ludacris. All that being said, when Monáe announced her third album, Dirty Computer, shit was hype. Our first taste of new Janelle Monáe in five years came in the form of two videos for two very different songs. The first, and most impactful, was “Make Me Feel,” a sexy-sweet Prince homage – worked on
(still) just want to have fun.
dence, sex, fashion and most importantly, Janelle Monáe. The second of the two videos announcing Dirty Computer was “Django Jane,” the hard-hitting counterpart to “Make Me Feel”’s shiny pop-funk lust. “Make Me Feel” is a single, a hit clear as day. But “Django Jane” is a declaration: Janelle is back. The video shows her on a throne in an immaculately tailored suit that says, “I don’t know what y’all have been doing while I was gone, but it doesn’t matter.” Monáe had never rapped with this much intensity and drive on a track, only coming close on 2010’s “Tightrope (Remix)”. Lines like “And we gon’ start a motherfucking Pussy Riot, or we gon’ have to put ’em on a pussy diet” and “Black girl magic, y’all can’t stand it. Y’all can’t ban it” more than hit the mark. With these two juggernaut returns, Monáe crushed expectations and reestablished her grip on music. When Dirty Computer was released a few months later, the album proved to be every bit as full of sounds and themes as diverse as on those twin singles. There were sugary pop songs and heavy rap bars, often on the same song. Songs like “Crazy, Classic, Life” and “Screwed” employ double entendres to juxtapose carefree sex and partying with pro-black, anti-Trump politics. She stands tall as a domineering queen of melody, with legends like Brian Wilson, Prince and Pharrell appearing as supplicants on the record merely to highlight her decrees. On Dirty Computer, Monáe successfully tightroped the lines of pop album and political statement without compromising either. So do you want to celebrate with the baddest and smartest matriarch in music? Her Highest holds court at a sold-out House of Blues on Saturday.

BY B AO L E - H U U LINGUA IGNOTA | PHOTO BY JEN CRAY
This week, Echo & the Bunnymen
reclaim some historical rights, and the Body and Lingua Ignota bring transmissions from the bleeding edge.
ECHO & THE BUNNYMEN, HOUSE OF BLUES, JULY 20
Only a couple of months before their Orlando date was announced, I was looped in on a Facebook thread that bemoaned the lack of historical respect for Echo and the Bunnymen. I didn’t fully agree but I got my friend’s point. Although unquestionable legends of classic alternative rock, the great English band doesn’t exactly have as high an international profile as, say, the Cure or the Smiths. But I contended that those who know, know. Well, Orlando’s with me on that because this show sold out in the kind of hot-ticket time that usually only peaking current acts manage, not cult heroes almost 40 years on. Only two original members remain – guitarist Will Sergeant and iconic singer Ian McCulloch – but they’re the key ones. Given those two, it would’ve been the treat of a lifetime for deep fans if they would’ve thrown an Electrafixion song into the set. Regardless, this song list was a pretty comprehensive greatest hits parade that would delight any Bunnymen fan (read: very little past the band’s initial 1988 fracture and absolutely nothing off Reverberation). When they opened with the one-two punch of “Lips Like Sugar” and “Bring on the Dancing Horses,” you knew they were not fucking around. Overall, they sounded good and clear, though Will Sergeant’s defining guitars were at times criminally low in the mix. Even if it took a bit to warm up, Ian
Lingua Ignota is one of the most visceral performers around, putting audience members in an awed trance. Hell hath no fury indeed, and she brought down the house. McCulloch’s majestic voice, with its velvet tone and black-leather sensibility, is forever cool. It’s unreasonable to expect age to not come into play after four decades, but the only thing they needed was a better, stouter mix. Otherwise, they conjured the singular dance of sparkle, mood and mystique that’s proven the Bunnymen eternal and essential.
THE BODY AND LINGUA IGNOTA, WILL’S PUB, JULY 18
Originally emerging from the same notable Rhode Island bedlam that unleashed Lightning Bolt, adventurous duo The Body have roots deep in metal and noise. But over time, they’ve evolved into a categorically experimental heavy act, transcending those boxes with a remarkably wide horizon that’s been known to feature electronics, beats, dark ambience and tendrils of dissonance that stretch out into the bleak industrial fringe. Live, however, their recent Orlando performance kept it more head-on with a raw and undivided attack that came on like an avalanche of sludge and polluted electronics. Hitting with the force
of depth charges, their sonic dread is the soundtrack to the bowels of a volcano. Across releases on prime labels like Thrill Jockey, Sacred Bones, At a Loss and Neurot, the Body have etched a powerful and unique space on the frontier of heavy music. And what little company they have in their class is the cream. Tourmate and frequent collaborator Lingua Ignota is the musical project of Rhode Island’s Kristin Hayter, a classical vocalist turned experimental hellraiser. As an artist, she comes out openly as an abuse survivor. And she comes hard, with a sound and show that manifest that torment. Musically, she blends noise, elemental industrial and haunting piano dirges. Vocally, her torture can levitate like a cathedral ghost one moment, then blister and peel with black-metal fury the next. Together, they make harrowing odysseys of pain and drama. Live, Lingua Ignota cuts to the bone. With her whole rig set up offstage on the floor, she began, illuminated only by a few simple studio lamps. Gradually, she wandered the crowd, laying the lamps on the ground here and there between people, like setting up a ceremony. But by the show’s climax, her body had reclaimed all the lights in a vortex of violence and selfflagellation. Avowedly, Hayter comes from a survivor’s perspective. But in their sheer power and wrath, her music and performance are as much exorcism as they are revolt. And her show is one of the most visceral displays around, one that was definitely putting some people here in a trance of awe. Hell hath no fury indeed, and it brought down the house. baolehuu@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

Princess Mononoke FILM
On its 20th anniversary, Fathom Events presents the cult favorite animated film Princess Mononoke on the big screen. In Mononoke, Hayao Miyazaki takes as his subject nothing less than a battle between humans and gods, pitting all the beasts and spirits of the forest against the incursions of industry. Personifying the forest is San, a girl raised by wolves who fights to defend the animals and the gods. The film’s first vision of her – riding hell-for-leather on the back of a giant wolf, clad in furs and teeth, mouth smeared with blood – is as iconic a film entrance as you’re likely ever to see. For anime fans who’ve been restricted to viewing Mononoke’s epic sweep on TV or computer screens, it’s a not-to-be-missed opportunity. And fans of live-action film violence may be amazed to learn how brutal a blood-spurting fight scene can be when rendered with pencil and brush. – Jessica Bryce Young 7 p.m. | Regal Winter Park Village 20, 510 N. Orlando Ave., Winter Park; Cinemark Artegon Marketplace, 5150 International Drive; AMC Universal Cineplex 20, 6000 Universal Blvd. | ghiblifest.com | $13

Conditional Fidelity MUSIC
A few weeks ago, Orlando Weekly happened to catch newer local hip-hop group OhTwo at a house show and we were utterly stunned. The trio – MCs Faust and Xavya, assisted by busy beatmaker Byson – had just come off an Illuminated Paths-helmed tour up the East Coast and were lethally honed by the stint of roadwork. Beats, flow, energetic performance (quite literally shaking the floorboards of the house with stomping in time to the beat) and a very individual look all add up to a band that definitely won’t be an underground secret for much longer. Check them while you can. Nerd culture ground zero Geek Easy – home to a healthy and vibrant crop of local synthwave, electronic and nerdcore artists – is playing host for this stacked evening of left-field hip-hop. Support comes from Byson (pulling double duty with a solo set), Spvtnik and Super Will. Crucial. – Matthew Moyer with OhTwo, Spvtnik, Byson, Super Will | 10:30 p.m. | The Geek Easy, 114 S.

Of the noise-rock groups of the early ’90s, a rogues’ gallery of guitar destroyers clustered around labels like Matador, Amphetamine Reptile and Touch & Go, there were none quite as demented as New York’s Unsane. Blood-soaked album imagery, true crime-worthy lyrics and maddeningly precise guitar scree somehow even scored the band a brief major-label deal with Atlantic Records (the ’90s were a deeply weird time, trust us). The band, best known for early, influential albums like Scattered, Smothered & Covered (Waffle House menu options never sounded so ghoulish) and Total Destruction, came off like an audio Taxi Driver, and they’re still going strong, recently putting out their newest album, Sterilize, on Southern Lord. Unsane are on tour with Wrong, and Bloodlet are coming out of semi-semiretirement to open for them at Will’s. This is nostalgia we can get behind. – MM With Bloodlet, Wrong, Church Girls, Call In Dead | 8 p.m. | Will’s Pub, 1042 N. Mills Ave. | willspub.org | $15

Summer Block Paw-ty EVENTS
Celebrate the summer with your canine at the Mennello Museum’s garden party with a spiked lemonade in hand. While you’re sipping something strong, your furry best friend can enjoy the day with a pup cup from Jeremiah’s Italian Ice; Mercantile Coffee Co. will have complimentary sparkling Arnold Palmers, and other drinks for purchase. Yappy Dog Distillery will also join in on the fun, offering their share of beverages as well. The event, sponsored by Pig Floyd’s, is geared toward promoting the Mennello’s Pet Membership program, which gets you into several doggie-centric events throughout the year for $25, along with a discount card for local pet businesses. In between all the food and drinks, there will be paw print projects for you and your pet to partake in, and even a photo booth to document the day. – Larissa Hamblin 6:30 p.m. | Mennello Museum of American Art, 900 E.

Bad Balloon’s 1-Year Anniversary MUSIC
Look, promoting shows – especially if you’re doing it out of naive enthusiasm for the healing powers of music – can be thankless and exhausting work. You work a job all day, and then spend off-hours posting fliers and promoting online and badgering friends, acquaintances and strangers alike to come out on the night – to say nothing of how stressful running the actual show will be; it can break you. But if you can make it through a year, you’re pretty much cursed to be in it for the long haul. To that end, this Friday, local promoters Bad Balloon are celebrating 365 days of no sleep, and the lineup is ferocious. Local titans and scene vets Wet Nurse are gonna be making a rare appearance, the ever-ascendant TV Dinner will be laying down angular lullabies, new and promising Gainesville hands Demo are popping through town and there’s even going to be a Replacements cover band. Could there be a better metaphor for fighting on in the face of adversity? – MM with Wet Nurse, TV Dinner, Demo, Expert Timing, the Place Mats | 8 p.m. | Will’s Pub, 1042 N.

Gotham on Ice EVENTS
Moshi Moshi Productions have made a name for themselves by throwing elaborately themed afterparties for all of the area’s biggest conventions, bringing in film-quality cosplayers, body paint artists, celebrity guests and live surprises. But this pop-up at Icebar is their first party not tied to a particular con. The concept is cool: Mister Freeze and other Batman villains have taken over “Gotham” – played here by Icebar and the more spacious attached Fire Lounge – and are throwing a party. If you have the cosplay chops, put them to use, as there’s a $100 bar tab you could win. All attendees also receive a free one-day ticket to August’s Walker Stalker Con – a convention devoted to The Walking Dead – which runs $40-$50 normally. And that kind of steal won’t get you assaulted by a psychopathic billionaire dressed up in bat-themed fetish gear. – Thaddeus McCollum 8 p.m. | Icebar Orlando, 8967 International Drive | moshimoshiproductions.com | $15-$400

B Y D A N S AVA G E
I’ve been faithfully reading your column in the Chicago Reader for years, and now I’m reaching out to you about my own problem. I’ve been dating this guy for almost a year. Everything is great, except one thing: He wants me to kick him in the nuts. It really bothers me, and I’m not sure what to do. He’s very serious about it, and he brings it up every single day. It makes me really uncomfortable that this is some sort of fetish of his and I need help taking steps forward. To Kick Or Not To Kick P.S. I play soccer and I kick hard. It’s a kink called “ball busting,” TKONTK, and as long as you don’t kick him full force – or even half force – you’re unlikely to do permanent damage. That said, childless guys who are into ball busting are often advised to freeze their sperm just in case. And while it’s not a hugely popular kink, it’s common enough that ball-busting porn exists, and ball-busting Tumblrs, ballbusting blogs, etc. Take it slow at first, particularly if your guy has only fantasized about this and not experienced it. P.S. A guy who brings up his kink every single day deserves to be kicked in the nuts – unless he’s into ball busting, in which case he doesn’t deserve to be kicked in the nuts. My husband and I were married in Toronto, Canada, in 2005, before marriage equality came to the United States. Does the U.S. government recognize our Canadian marriage or do we need to remarry in the U.S.? Can you find out from one of your legal friends? Does Our Marriage Apply? “The US government does recognize your marriage,” says Robbie Kaplan, one of my legal friends – and the attorney who represented Edith Windsor before the U.S. Supreme Court and won. In United States v. Windsor, the Supreme Court ruled that the federal government was required to recognize legal same-sex marriages, thereby gutting the Defense of Marriage Act. “We did the same thing,” Kaplan adds. “We were married in Toronto in 2006, and the U.S. recognizes our marriage. No need to get married again here.” Hi Dan, I am getting in touch because I thought you might be interested in the following article: “Getting to the Bottom of Pegging.” For open-minded people who are open to butt play, pegging is a great way to spice things up in the bedroom. But what exactly is pegging and why is it a thing now? Sex and relationships expert Tami Rose knows how important it is to try new things in the bedroom. She would be able to 50
provide an article explaining what pegging is and tips for your more adventurous readers who want to give it a go. I look forward to hearing your thoughts. [Redacted] PR Agency Pegging? Never heard of it. Wait – what’s that, Wikipedia? “Pegging is a sexual practice in which a woman performs anal sex on a man by penetrating the man’s anus with a strap-on dildo … The neologism “pegging” was popularized when it became the winning entry in a contest in Dan Savage’s ‘Savage Love’ sex advice column [in 2001].” I’m in a six-year relationship with a guy you will probably deem DTMFA-worthy but I deem round-up-able to The One. My kids already regarded him as their stepdad before we moved in together about eight months ago. That’s when I learned he’s an addict: He drinks, smokes weed and jerks off to porn for about two hours every day. He has been this way for more than 20 years, and I have zero delusions he will change for me. Recently he told me he has very little sexual desire for me, that he knows my pussy in and out and it’s boring, but he loves my companionship. How do I deal with this so we can move forward together as an incompatible couple? Sex Addict Partner A romantic partner who says something as cruel and negating as what this man has said to you, SAP, either wants out of the relationship or is grooming their partner for much worse treatment to come. If he wants out of the relationship, the verbal and emotional abuse will escalate until you finally leave him. If he doesn’t want out, the verbal and emotional abuse will escalate a bit more slowly, so that, like the proverbial frog in the pot of boiling water, you don’t realize exactly how bad it’s getting and how much damage it’s doing to you – and your kids. I know it’s not what you wanted to hear, SAP, but I’m going to say it anyway: DTMFA. I’m a competent in-person lover, but I’m the worst at Skype/FaceTime/WhatsApp sex. I can’t get the angle right, I don’t know what to wear, I feel shy, I don’t know what to say, I can’t get off, I giggle like a 15-year-old girl getting her first French kiss under the bleachers. I’m going to be away from my guy for most of the summer and I need to figure this out. Any advice or tips? Struggle Keeping Yonder Penis Entertained A 15-year-old girl may giggle the first time she gets French-kissed under the bleachers – or she may not – but a girl who giggles the first time probably isn’t going to be giggling

“QUICKIES”
the 50th. So just keep at it, try to relax and enjoy yourself, and ask your partner to take the lead, i.e., if you don’t know what to do, ask him to tell you what he’d like you to do, SKYPE – but only follow the orders you’re comfortable following.
Are you looking for a new furry friend? Meet Peanut!
What’s the fairest way to determine who should get tied up? Bondage Bottom Boyfriends Whoever was tied up last time does the tying up this time and vice versa. Do you ever wear panties, Dan? Would you post a picture of yourself in panties online? I think you would look good in panties. Panties Are Nice To You While I have no particular aversion to wearing panties, PANTY, and while I will not deny the allure of the models at xdress.com, I’ve never worn panties and have no plans to start. As a consequence, I won’t be able to post a picture of myself in panties online to delight you and horrify everyone else. How much sex is too much sex?

Peanut (A379003) is a 6-yearold male who was surrendered to us by his owners because they could no longer care for him. He knows the commands “sit,” “paw” and is learning “lay down.” Peanut enjoys car rides, and he is greatly loved by our staff and everyone he encounters. He loves eating treats and is an expert at fetch. If you have a ball, watch out – Peanut is coming for you! Peanut does have heartworm disease, which is treatable, and luckily he is sponsored, meaning his heartworm treatment has been already paid for in full. Something everyone can agree on: It’s time to adopt! Bipurrtisan adoptions offered this month with Repuplicans and Democats galore.
