On May 16, we reported on Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ announcement that vacation rentals could soon roll out the welcome mats again – if county and state officials give the go-ahead. This rescinds his March 27 executive order banning short-term vacation rentals to curb the spread of coronavirus.
@Matt Chambless Oh, how I hate the governor. What a waste he is.
@Kate Callahan Does it come with complimentary murder hornets?
market. Houses that are in good condition and priced right are selling fast.
@Lizette Cortes de Ruppert So happy that only the idiots will dive into this vacation option. Cruises and vacation silliness will be filled with … people.
@Beth Baldridge Has anyone thought to send one to Joe?
@Steven Mumby What a novel (whispers “coronavirus”) idea!
@Jonathan Krause Ol’ “C’s Get Degrees” DeSantis still hasn’t figured out how to put a mask on, eh?
@Alex Vaccaro IDK what’s more sad, Carole Baskin or Orlando Weekly supporting this trash bag.
Also on May 16, we reported that Carole Baskin, newly relevant thanks to Netflix’s Tiger King documentary series, has started selling leopard-print cloth masks printed with her ‘cool cats and kittens’ tagline. Proceeds will benefit her Big Cat Rescue.
@Emily DelFavero Fucking love you Carole, get that shit.
@Joe Truhan It’s got to be optimistic speculation about the future of the real estate market that’s causing home prices to increase even though sales are dropping. This may or may not be realistic. We are probably gonna go into a recession over the next year, which will cause working-age people not to want to make big purchases like a home until the economy is more reliable; however, Florida is where people go to retire and a lot of the new home purchases in the area might just not be by working-age people.
@Rachel Depp Well, since the condo unit above me is a vacation rental and is usually always rented out to people who have insanely loud and crazy parties, I am not thrilled about this. @Derek Perron Vacation rentals don’t usually have the resources to keep a place sanitary. @James Hanks Literally every vacation rental has a cleaning service that comes in behind the people staying there. If you have experienced otherwise, you need to step up your vacation game. @RJ Dominguez Good good!!!
@Dustin Brian Krueger Ugh, nightmare fuel! That picture is terrifying. @Seth Landis She is cruising for a bruising. Nope, she is askin’ for a Baskin! LMAO @Katherine Van Fossen Wait, I thought her tag line was about throwing a potato.
@Sean Raines Let Tiger King die.
On May 15, we reported that new numbers from the Orlando Regional Realtor Association show the depressing effects of coronavirus on home sales in Central Florida. To wit, median home price in April rose by 12 percent, while the number of home sales dropped by 28 percent. @Richard Neilan At present, there are no indications that this is a housing crisis. Interest rates are at historic lows, and demand still exceeds supply, especially in the $200-$300K
@Oscar Hernandez In other words coronavirus has not helped drop home prices. Let me put on my shocked face. @Martin Strain They need to lower prices, they are already grossly too high. Landlords and leasing companies are getting more greedy by the minute. @Leann Lu Prices need to drop as well. @Jason Russell I’m calling bullshit, I see nothing but listing price decrease alerts all over Central Florida. @Miguel Perez This is why Americans can’t afford a home … On May 21, Universal Orlando presented a plan for reopening to the Orange County Commission. The company hopes to reopen their parks by June 5, albeit with reduced guest capacity, temperature checks and masks required. Still, some think it’s too early. @Virginia E. Jimenez I just don’t see how anyone would want to stand in line for hours for a ride with a mask on in this Florida heat. The ambulance is going be out there more for heat exhaustion than anything else. @Geoffrey Cravero Temperature checks don’t matter if you aren’t exhibiting symptoms, which could take up to two weeks. @Jeffrey Moll Virtual lines, touch-free payment and masks for all involved are going to be put in place. If you don’t want to comply, don’t come. Simple. If you as an individual believe that it’s too much to wear a mask, don’t go! @Tara Lee Cavanagh Will employees be receiving hazard pay? @Rhonda May Oh the new tan lines are going to be epic!

OUR LONG, HOT, STUPID SUMMER You thought 2016 was bad? Buckle up, buttercup. BY JEFFREY C. BILL M A N
Last
time,
we
discussed
“Obamagate,” a QAnon thread that found life in a presidential hydroxychloroquine hallucination. To recap: Barack Obama and Joe Biden engineered a corrupt FBI/deep state conspiracy to ensnare Donald Trump’s campaign in a Russia-collusion hoax, but – because they are very devious – they didn’t employ this scheme to stop Trump from getting elected. (In fact, the conspirators ensured his victory by announcing an investigation into his opponent just before the election.) They then manipulated his national security adviser into lying to FBI agents, then forced the president to obstruct a special counsel investigation during which a bunch of his associates pleaded guilty to all kinds of crimes. The deep state plays the long game, y’all. This would be funny-stupid if it remained the provenance of an addled conspiracy theorist, his cable news propagandists and an incel chatroom. Instead, the ruling political party, not to mention the politicized Department of Justice, is pretending to take it seriously – or, worse, has drunk the KoolAid – which is more scary-stupid. Either way, dais-pounding congressional hearings into the origins of the Russia investigation and ginned-up prosecutions of the investigators are coming, just in time for the November election. Here, by the way, is what Republicans see as “evidence” of the plot. Just before leaving office, outgoing national security adviser Susan Rice sent herself an email memorializing a brief meeting President Obama’s intelligence team had about Michael Flynn shortly after he promised Russia that Trump would ease sanctions put in place as punishment for election interference. In the email, Rice wrote, Obama said he wanted everything done by the book, which meant the White House should stay out of law enforcement matters. “From a national security perspective, however, President Obama said he wants to be sure that, as we engage with the incoming team, we are mindful to ascertain if there is any reason that we cannot share information fully as it related to Russia.”
FBI director James Comey said he had concerns about Flynn but no evidence he was leaking sensitive information. Obama told Comey to advise him if anything changed. The meeting ended. According to Republicans, this email, which the Trump administration declassified, is proof that Obama was spying on Trump. Sen. Martha Blackburn: “Susan Rice knew exactly what she was doing. That’s why she wrote herself emails in a desperate attempt to cover her tracks.” [Pauses, stares at camera.] With Trump down between 8 (Fox News) and 11 (Quinnipiac) points, our long, hot, stupid summer is just beginning. While Sen. Lindsey Graham will hold hearings on Obamagate, fellow lickspittle Sen. Ron Johnson has taken a renewed interest in Burisma, the Ukrainian energy company that handsomely paid Hunter Biden for a board position, another outrage in search of a scandal.
As vice president, Joe Biden leveraged loan guarantees to force Ukraine’s president to fire a prosecutor. Trump’s Burisma theory – pursued by globetrotting super-sleuth Rudy Giuliani – is that he did so because the prosecutor was investigating Hunter and the corrupt Burisma. Except he wasn’t investigating Burisma – or any corruption. That was the problem. Biden was acting in furtherance of U.S., European Union and International Monetary Fund policy; they believed the prosecutor turned a blind eye to corruption, which impeded economic reform in Ukraine. Trump got impeached after demanding that Ukraine announce an investigation into the Bidens – as well as a crackpot theory about the DNC email server – in exchange for military aid. There’s nothing new now, but Johnson wants to first offer Trump a veneer of vindication, and second, envelop the Bidens in a cloud of vague, ill-defined scandal.
Indeed, the endless Benghazi hearings, though they uncovered no wrongdoing, damaged Hillary Clinton’s approval ratings. Create enough smoke and people will assume there’s fire somewhere. There’s no reason not to call that play again. Again, this is the tip of the (melting) iceberg. Trump just fired a State Department inspector general for doing his job too well, part of an ongoing purge of anyone who would dare hold him accountable, and Republicans cheered him on. The GOP Senate confirmed – I shit you not – a QAnoncurious Trump loyalist named John Ratcliffe as head of the country’s intelligence apparatus, though he has basically zero background in intelligence. The Supreme Court, meanwhile, appears to be leaning into the unitary presidency, blocking access to documents that Congress needs to conduct oversight. We’re nearing 100,000 COVID-19 deaths in three months – many of which could have been prevented if the president listened to experts and/or didn’t have the attention span of a glue-huffing 12-year-old – and Trump is still touting hydroxychloroquine even as science tells us it’s much more dangerous than helpful for COVID patients. Meanwhile, he won’t wear a mask in public – though they actually save lives – because he wants us to pretend that everything is normal. (Besides, those things are for betas.) Trump’s re-election always hinged on a good economy. With unemployment at Great Depression levels, he needs you to Get Back to Work, pandemic or not. To that end, Sen. Mitch McConnell wants to end the federal unemployment benefits Congress passed in March so that you layabouts will stop sponging off Uncle Sam. All over the country, Republicans are ramping up pressure to reopen state economies, consequences be damned. In the likely event of a second wave this fall, Trump says, he won’t shut anything down, no matter what public health experts say. To be sure, Trump doesn’t have a monopoly on stupid. On Friday, Joe Biden told radio host Charlamagne Tha God that if black voters support Trump, “You ain’t black,” which is definitely not something a white baby boomer should ever say. If there’s an upside, it’s that one stupid outburst might head off a more consequential stupid decision. On Thursday, we learned that Biden was formally vetting Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar, a gold standard milquetoast suburban WASP, for vice president. Perhaps needing to make amends with younger African Americans might inspire Gramps to make a slightly less mind-dulling choice. feedback@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

PIE ANXIETY!
The tragic backstory behind Chuck E. Cheese’s phony new takeout brand, ‘Pasqually’s Pizza & Wings’ BY JE RILY N JORDAN
W
hy is it that so many children’s stories are synonymous with suffering? We’re talking lots of dead dogs (Old Yeller), codependent trees (“The Giving Tree”), a dying spider (Charlotte’s Web) and one hell of an existentially doomed stuffed velveteen rabbit. But perhaps no story is as tragic as that of orphaned rat-turnedentrepreneur Chuck E. Cheese – who recently launched a new premium pizza brand so that he and his animatronic pizza party peddlers (and bandmates) could weather the coronavirus pandemic. Last month, Grubhub users in search of local pizza options stumbled upon a new chain called Pasqually’s Pizza & Wings. An inquisitive Philadelphia couple did a quick Google search and revealed that Pasqually’s address was the same as their local Chuck E. Cheese pizza arcade, in what seems like a new COVID-19-fueled business model. In a statement to Food & Wine magazine, a Chuck E. Cheese spokesperson confirmed that the company had branched into food delivery, and said that though Pasqually’s Pizza & Wings is a product of CEC Entertainment, the
pizza is considered a “premium” offering when compared to that of the traditional Chuck E. Cheese pie: “CEC Entertainment, Inc. recently launched Pasqually’s Pizza & Wings nationwide. The inspiration was rooted in the desire to create a premium pizza while staying true to the CEC brand. Pasqually’s Pizza & Wings, named after another favorite member of Munch’s Make Believe Band, shares kitchen space with the Chuck E. Cheese restaurant, ensuring high-quality, fresh ingredients. Pasqually’s Pizza & Wings’ recipes use fresh, homemade pizza dough, just like Chuck E. Cheese, but it is a different pizza that features a thicker crust and extra sauce, giving consumers a more flavorful, more premium pizza experience. While Pasqually’s Pizza & Wings recipes are currently only available for delivery, select items might be added to the Chuck E. Cheese menu in the future.” Orlando Weekly confirmed that the Central Florida Pasqually’s restaurants found on GrubHub and the locations of Chuck E. Cheese listed online are identical. So, who is this “Pasqually”? According to Chuck E. Cheese fandom, based on the company’s website (and a
curiously dark, illustrated origin story trademarked by CEC Entertainment Inc. that we found online), Pasqually is the reason Chuck E. Cheese franchises offer pizza at all. That illustrated story leaves out Chuck’s original 1977 incarnation as a cynical, adult joke–telling, cigar-smoking “Joisey rat,” instead leaning into his tragic-orphan childhood tale. He’s also kind of a loose cannon and will likely prove to be a liability as he gets older and handsier, but whatever. Pasqually P. Pieplate, an Italian immigrant, is a chef and drummer of Munch’s Make-Believe Band. As an adult, he inherited his family’s restaurant where he paired his traditional Italian fare with his lukewarm stand-up comedy routine, which did not go well. Apparently, customers found his jokes to be inappropriate and business began to tank. Pasqually and his nephew Gino faced a harsh reality: They were going to have to shut the place down. Those plans were dashed when Pasqually discovered an unwelcome rodent who had been residing in his restaurant. It was none other than Chuck E. Cheese, a fucking singing mouse and the answer to Pasqually’s business woes. OK, well not quite: Pasqually’s dumped the family name in favor of Chuck E. Cheese’s, where he basically forced the singing rat to perform like he was Judy Garland or something. But being an orphan with little to no social skills, not to mention unresolved childhood trauma, Chuck E. was unable to perform under such intense pressure. People fucking hated him. Without the gift of song, Chuck E. was just a rat in a T-shirt. It wasn’t until Chuck E. saw a child leaving the restaurant wearing a birthday crown (no, we’re not kidding) that he decided to sing his favorite song to the boy, who appeared sad as fuck that his parents dragged him out to degrade a small animal. Chuck E. Cheese’s favorite song is, of course, “Happy Birthday,” because according to his origin story, he always wanted a birthday but never got one in the orphanage where he grew up, St. Marinara’s. (His birth certificate has apparently been “lost to the sands of time.”) However, even more tragic than the orphaned mouse living out his unfulfilled childhood dreams of having a birthday is the restaurant chain’s struggle to survive. From livestream sing-alongs and sad grabs at relevance on Twitter, Chuck E. Cheese, now 43 years old, is struggling to keep his beloved chain afloat. In the first quarter, the chain saw sales take a 21 percent dive due to coronavirus. But things weren’t necessarily smooth sailing before the pandemic, either. In 2012, the chain rebranded Chuck E. as a “rock star mouse,” as, apparently, they were under the belief that business was sluggish because their mascot was an animatronic rat. However, the makeover wasn’t enough and the company was purchased by a private-equity firm for close to $1 billion dollars – not tokens. Oh, and in 2017, the company began phasing out animatronic band characters and band performances at its restaurants because apparently God is dead. So, whether you choose to take a gamble on some premium pizza from a chain you’ve never heard of or you consciously order from Pasqually’s Pizza and Wings knowing damn well that it’s just a sauced-up version of Chuck E. Cheese’s cardboard pie, you can rest easy knowing you’re supporting a nightmare 43 years in the making.

WHEN HOME IS THE MOST DANGEROUS PLACE Central Florida domestic violence advocates struggle to protect those who aren’t “safer at home” By Ashley Belanger
T
he stereotype of domestic abuse is that it’s loud. So loud, somebody around overhears. Violence gets broadcast by signs like doors slamming or constant shouting – maybe eventually violence spills out into the lawn, or family and friends detect evidence of abuse, bruises or bandages. But that stereotype of domestic abuse has never been accurate anywhere, and especially not in Florida, where a sociologist’s recent review showed that in extreme domestic violence cases, murder often happens after a long period of nonviolent abuse that the police don’t take as seriously. Abusers use tactics like intimidation, humiliation and isolation to gain control, threatening violence and dramatizing a sense of fear of the future. During the COVID-19 outbreak, it’s been especially quiet in Florida. Domestic violence centers believe there’s good reason to suspect that this silence could become deadly, if survivors can’t be reached during social distancing.
A STATISTICAL PARADOX The most recent residents of Harbor House, the only certified domestic violence center in Orlando, are a mother and child. “I’m so grateful that she chose to come in,” says Michelle Sperzel, Harbor House CEO, explaining that the risk of death for the new residents was higher at home than in communal living: “I mean, a highly lethal situation,” she says, describing the troubling scene these survivors left. Those running for their lives are the only survivors still seeking shelter during the pandemic, Sperzel says, and shelters like Harbor House are focusing their resources on having space for them. Other survivors seem to be simply enduring abuse at home. In many parts of the country, domestic violence reports have spiked, but in Florida, reported cases have stayed the same or decreased statewide. In Central Florida, the Orlando Police Department, Orange County Sheriff’s Office, Osceola County Police Department, Sanford Police Department and Winter Park Police Department all confirmed either no increase in domestic violence reports or a slight decrease. 12
Instead, what shelters are seeing is that in many areas of the state, including Orlando, survivors are seeking a higher number of protective injunctions as an extra defense against their batterers at home. Unlike police, Harbor House and many other Florida shelters say the domestic abuse hotline is ringing more often now, but most callers are saying they’re too afraid to come in because of the coronavirus risks; they view the shelter as posing the greater death threat. At Harbor House, where more than 50 percent of beds are open, every room that’s occupied represents an extreme case of domestic abuse. “The people who are coming in to our emergency shelter are the ones that are in imminent danger,” Sperzel says. “They know that if they don’t leave that the violence is going to escalate,” possibly to the point of murder. In 2018, there were 104,914 incidents of domestic violence reported statewide, a marginal decrease from the prior year, but while the number of incidents went slightly down, the number of domestic violence-related homicides went up. Close to one in five murders in Florida in 2018 were the result of domestic violence. The most recent report on fatalities from domestic abuse in Florida found that 94 percent of domestic abusers who murdered were men, and in 62 percent of domestic abuse cases that ended in death, those murders occurred at home. Right now, for domestic abuse survivors, getting out of the house isn’t easy, and neither is getting through the end of a phone call. After Gov. Ron DeSantis issued a statewide “safer-at-home” ordinance to limit the spread of COVID19, acceptable reasons to leave the house were reduced to essential activities, like outdoor exercise or grocery shopping. For survivors of domestic abuse in the state – primarily kids and women age 25-59 – these brief windows when their batterer steps out for a jog or a supply run are sometimes the only opportunities they have to place a quick phone call or grab what they can to leave. The 24-hour hotline for Harbor House is 407-8862856. Although some areas of the state, including parts of the Panhandle and Southeast Florida, have experienced a slight decrease in domestic violence calls, Sperzel says that in Central Florida, like most of the rest of the state, their hotline calls have gone up. “A lot of conversations have
ORLANDO WEEKLY ● MAY 27-JUNE 2, 2020 ● orlandoweekly.com
been ended midstream, because somebody walked into the room,” Sperzel says, but when survivors do stay on the line, the most-asked question isn’t how they can come in for shelter now. Survivors are asking how they can prepare to come when the state reopens. Some people want to know if there’s a wait list. Sperzel makes it clear there is no wait list and Harbor House is open, with many available beds. They’ve also got community partners providing quarantine spaces in hotels for anyone displaying symptoms or feeling sick, but it’s hard to know that these options exist when you don’t or can’t call for help. Some people end up avoiding the phone and Googling for help, searching for “victim services.” That’s how they find the Victim Service Center, which also has a helpline. A call to VSC connects domestic violence survivors in Orange, Osceola and Seminole counties with these three shelters: Harbor House, Help Now Osceola and Safehouse of Seminole. “We’re pretty easy to find,” says Lui Damiani, executive director of VSC, which works as a community resource for victims of not just domestic abuse, but sexual assault, violent crime and traumatic circumstances. Their 24-hour hotline is 407-500-4325, and when survivors call, he says they’re connected with a master’s-level counselor or social worker who can help de-escalate the crisis and direct them to safe shelter.
RESOURCES: ABUNDANCE AND SCARCITY “What we are seeing more than before is: The survivors who are coming in have close to nothing right now, just because of the timeframe that they have to escape safely,” says Candice Nieves, Harbor House’s residential services manager. She says supplies have been a key point of stress during the outbreak. Survivors don’t know what to bring or how to gather supplies without attracting attention. That’s why Harbor House provides all the essentials, from food to fresh towels. “We set that all up on the crisis line,” Nieves says. Survivors are assured that “all the food is going to be provided, linens, toiletries … we have kids’ diapers, formula.” In 2018, nearly half the residents in Florida domestic vio-

lence centers were children of survivors, many survivors themselves. Not many people know about Harbor House, partly because it’s intentionally hidden away where no one can find it. Only survivors and staff know how to get there. That seclusion, while necessary and desirable, makes it tough to raise awareness that services are still available during the pandemic. Many assume shelters are closed, but domestic violence centers are federally listed essential services. Certified domestic violence centers like Harbor House are open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. At Harbor House, residents also have access to childcare services and an onsite kennel with vet care. “We’re doing our best to talk to the survivors, saying, ‘We’re still open, please feel you can come in,’” Sperzel says. For those seeking shelter for the first time ever during this pandemic, Nieves says it’s especially tough to make that decision to come in now. “If you’ve never been, it’s all unknown,” she says. Many people have no idea what a domestic violence center looks like. Harbor House, unlike many domestic violence centers in the state, is not set up dormitory-style, but instead has individual rooms. VSC staff routinely visits all three affili-
ated shelters in the area and can accurately describe each environment to callers requesting shelter. “They can speak to what it actually is because they’ve been there,” Damiani says, noting that he thinks “Harbor House, particularly, is a beautiful environment.” Throughout the shelter, there are cheery touches: a Mickey Mouse hopscotch painted on the sidewalk, colorful cube seats in the common room, a kids’ kitchen playset in the playroom – right next to the actual kitchen with its white countertops and stocked pantry. To protect residents through the pandemic, Harbor House has made some adjustments. New residents are quarantined in dedicated rooms after arriving. Rooms where six to eight normally sleep now hold a maximum of four people or one family per room. Nieves says they also supply everyone with masks, gloves and hand sanitizer. Signs with safety guidelines went up and informal rules were put in place to persuade residents to stagger use of communal spaces like the kitchen. To increase transparency, house meetings increased from three times a week to twice daily. All the communal areas – sitting rooms, dining areas, kitchen, playground and childcare program facilities – are being cleaned between uses. Because of this, Lysol and other cleaning supplies are high on the shelter’s list of
continually needed items. In Florida, there are 42 certified domestic violence centers, with facilities ranging from 15 beds to 133. Centers servicing 22 counties statewide commented on conditions they’re seeing for this story. All report operating with reduced capacity due to social distancing, but they have concerns that the longer outbreak conditions continue, the more strapped for resources they will become. Before the outbreak, shelters were already requesting funding to expand available beds, and 29 centers reported needing repairs. Due to social distancing, important fundraisers were canceled. Some shelters who generate funds through donations to thrift stores, like the Sunrise Domestic and Sexual Violence Center in Dade City, had to close shop. “The decrease in revenue has been really tough,” says Sunrise CEO Kelly Sinn. In North Central Florida, smartphones are the most requested item, according to Theresa Beachy, executive director of Peaceful Paths Domestic Abuse Network. In the Panhandle, the Salvation Army Domestic Violence

Program reports a need for laptops and internet services. Because many courts are closed, survivors are being asked to complete forms to request injunctions for protection online, but some of them have no means to do so. “Many of these individuals do not have access to computers,” says Kimberly Garbett, director of the Salvation Army Domestic Violence Program. Several shelters, including Harbor House, have also seen an increase in requests for legal services, with survivors more ready to request injunctions for protection under the shelter-in-place order, but with the courts closed, that particular out requires an internet connection now. Each new consideration raises new concerns. “Another issue is people not being able to get to counseling and not able to maybe get their medicine,” says Leandra Preston, who runs a kennel sheltering pets for domestic abuse survivors called Animal Safehouse of Brevard. Mental health is a factor in 45 percent of domestic violence cases that end in murder in Florida, and getting medications can be more difficult in these days due to lockdown and possible financial stress. At Harbor House, Nieves says donations of items like cleaning supplies, paper towels, baby wipes, diapers, baby formula, toilet paper and canned goods always help. Harbor House was also previously struggling to keep masks, gloves and hand sanitizer stocked, but recently, the Florida Department of Children and Families helped state shelters with shipments of 20,000 masks and 21,000 pairs of gloves, as well as hand sanitizer. These supplies will be distributed as needed based on weekly calls DCF holds with shelters.
A DOUBLE CRISIS On May 1, DCF officially stepped into a new support role for Florida domestic violence centers. Earlier this year, it was discovered that the organization previously filling this role, the Florida Coalition Against Domestic Violence, had diverted $7.5 million in funding away from shelters. The money instead went to grossly overcompensating then-CEO Tiffany Carr for paid time off. Now the state is suing and moving to dissolve FCADV, following a unanimous decision by the state legislature to remove FCADV from a 2003 statute naming it as the only entity that DCF can contract with to manage state shelters. That means DCF is free to contract with a new service provider, but deciding who that will be will take time. State Sen. Aaron Bean, who sponsored the bill to remove FCADV from the statute, tells Orlando Weekly that he expects there will be more transparency around shelter funding moving forward. Sperzel calls the timing of FCADV’s betrayal a “double crisis” because not only are shelters navigating COVID-19 for the first time, but they’re doing it while this leadership transition is taking place and they navigate a new relationship with DCF. The biggest issue was uncertainty: For a while, shelters weren’t clear how much funding they could expect to receive or for how long they’d be funded. On April 30, DCF renewed contracts for all 42 shelters through June 2021, keeping all shelters at their current funding levels for stability purposes. “We feel very heard and validated,” Sperzel says, but she’s also concerned because FCADV provided more than just funding for shelters. “One thing that the Florida Coalition was wonderful at, was getting the word out and making sure they were in front of legislators,” she says. “We don’t have that voice right now.” DCF is working with shelters to ensure no essential

services that FCADV provided are lost in the shuffle, and they’ve already identified additional funds needed to help shelters deal with COVID-19 losses in fundraising and increased demands for supplies and staff as outbreak conditions go on. There is also the possibility that shelters will get some of the stolen money back from FCADV once the state’s lawsuit is settled. (A request for comment on the status of the lawsuit from Florida attorney general Ashley Moody’s office was not answered.) DCF received another influx of funding for shelters from the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act, a federal relief package that includes $45 million in funds that can be used to support domestic violence centers nationwide. Every week in Florida, DCF meets with shelter leaders to discuss shifting needs, and lately those conversations are focused on how to use those funds once the state reopens. That’s when the domestic violence shelters and state officials expect demand for services to rapidly increase, as escape becomes more possible and domestic abuse becomes more visible again.
EMERGING FROM THE SHADOWS “The more eyes are on people out in the community, and the less they’re isolated in their home, the calls for domestic violence, child abuse, we expect those to go up,” says Jennifer Rey, program services director of Aid to Victims of Domestic Abuse in Delray Beach. Worldwide, domestic violence cases are surging. As the pandemic stokes confusion over how to stay safe, the state is already planning its reopening and shelters expect to see more survivors in need of services. “We are already hearing from many survivors the stress is increasing the physical violence in the home,” says Linda Parker, director of victim services for the Peace River Center that serves Polk, Highlands and Hardee counties in Central Florida. Trish Giaccone, CEO of Family Life Center in Flagler
County, puts forth the question everyone has as the state reopens: “Where do victims go when they need help and centers are unable to provide a safe space?” At VSC in the Orlando area, Damiani says more than half their domestic abuse cases involve sexual violence, and during COVID-19, they’ve seen an increase in the number of sexual violence cases where the perpetrator is known to the victim. Last March, the perpetrators were known in 57 percent of sexual violence cases, and this March, they were known in 81 percent of cases. “In this world, they are now assaulting people they know, where it would appear that previously they weren’t,” Damiani says, describing how COVID-19 conditions have emboldened sexual abusers to strike closer to home. Harbor House and VSC are getting more creative with how they’re checking in with survivors. Zoom and WebEx became online portals for weekly support meetings for survivors who live with their abusers or are sheltered in a location they fear their abuser may discover. Sperzel says for Harbor House, there’s been an increase in survivors reaching out via email and Facebook. Next they’re looking into providing a text-based service where survivors can text or chat with advocates on their phones or online. Until then, Sperzel says, “We’re reaching out to survivors, we’re calling them, we’re seeing if they have any services that they need.” Right now, the priority at Harbor House is reserving space for survivors who are in imminent danger. In the most sensitive cases, she says the best way to reach survivors is often through friends and families. Together with VSC and Orange-Osceola State Attorney Aramis Ayala, Harbor House launched a program in late April aimed at survivor support networks called “Don’t Check Out, Check In.” They are asking friends, family and neighbors to look after survivors by checking in daily. “Not everybody is going to call us, but they’re going to reach out to somebody,” Sperzel says. Not every outbreak outreach idea for survivors is so thoughtful, though. State AG Moody recently partnered with Uber to offer free transportation to domestic violence shelters in Florida for those in need (an uncomfortable choice for anyone familiar with how the ride-share company documents thousands of drivers sexually assaulting riders annually, only reporting a third of cases at best last year). It’s hard to know how to stay safe during this pandemic. While many residents stayed at Harbor House this past month, others felt they should leave. So far in Florida domestic violence shelters, there have been two confirmed cases of COVID-19. “Some people just went home because they still didn’t feel like they were protected,” Nieves says. “They wanted to be quarantined in their own four walls, and we respect that.” When residents leave, Harbor House provides them with necessities that can be hard to find right now like toiletries, baby formula and diapers. They also give everyone leaving an assurance. “Our hotline is always up and running,” Nieves says. “If you need us, this isn’t going to keep you from coming back. Just call us and we will bring you back.” If you are feeling unsafe during this time, or if you are concerned that a family member, friend or neighbor may be in danger, please call the Victim Service Center 24-hour hotline (407-500-4325) or the 24-hour hotline for Harbor House (407-886-2856).

DISNEY SPRINGS IS BACK OPEN FOR BUSINESS | PHOTO BY SETH KUBERSKY
BY SETH KUBERSKY
Disney Springs and Universal CityWalk emerge from their coronavirus closures with varying levels of caution from staff and guests Longtime observers of Orlando’s
attractions have noticed that a familiar playbook is usually followed when the theme parks have a big premiere. First, Disney announces an ambitious plan long before its proposed opening date, teasing impressive ideas but providing minimal specifics. Meanwhile, Universal works fullsteam building new things in full view of guests but refuses to acknowledge their existence; then unexpectedly dumps all the details days before the big debut. We’ve seen this dynamic time and again, during the dueling arrival of the Pandora and Potter lands, as well as in the current construction of the Guardians of the Galaxy and Jurassic Park roller coasters. So it was no surprise to see that pattern emerge
again when Walt Disney World announced on May 8 that their Disney Springs shopping and dining complex would resume limited operations on May 20, followed days later by word from Universal Orlando that they were beating the Mouse to the punch and reopening CityWalk on May 14. I attended the reopening days at both resorts, and in many way the experiences were similar. Both Disney Springs and CityWalk re-emerged from their coronavirus closures with only a limited number of third-party venues open, although the number of operating offerings continues to grow. Both complexes are attempting to enforce social distancing measures, and are using screening procedures to help guests feel safer during their visit. But when you look into the details of how the two resorts are wrangling with our new abnormal normal, you’ll find their responses flip the standard script in unexpected ways. Whether you go to CityWalk or Disney Springs, your visit will start inside a parking garage, since the surface lots around Disney Springs are still closed. Universal has waived its usual parking fees and trained the staff directing cars to help guests stay socially distant by leaving empty spaces. Disney, which normally has vastly superior parking procedures, provided inadequate directions to the Lime garage entrance when I arrived to find the Orange one closed, and once I was inside, parking was an unguided free-for-all. Prior to entering either complex, guests enjoy a complimentary touch-free thermometer check to ensure their temperature is under 100.4 degrees. At both places, this bit of pandemic performance
art was conducted efficiently and courteously; curiously, Universal uses their own employees, while at Disney Springs, staff from AdventHealth operate the screening. Guests at both resorts are also required to wear face masks, which has proved to be a partisan flashpoint on social media. At Universal, guests without masks are invited to purchase a reusable one ($6 for one, $15 for three) or offered a free disposable one. I didn’t see similar accommodations at Disney, but virtually every guest I saw had brought their own, and were using them for the most part. The major exception to mask-wearing was among guests who were eating and drinking. At Universal, that was largely confined to widely spaced tables outside the handful of operating restaurants, like Margaritaville – which posted a two-hour wait within minutes of reopening. The walk-up windows that serve alcohol were all closed. But at Disney Springs, a larger number of takeaway locations were operating – including a Starbucks and the Polite Pig – leading to a substantial number of guests strolling around unmasked while slowly sipping (or Instagramming) their beverages. As far as social distancing goes, new markers promoting proper spacing have grown out of the ground like mushrooms across both complexes. Disney ordinarily does a better job at consistent signage, but curiously, here again Universal seems a step ahead; while Universal generally uses its floor markings to indicate where guests should stand, Disney has deployed a mix of “stand here” and “don’t stand here” signs. The conflicting messages feature confusingly identical fonts and color schemes, so orlandoweekly.com

don’t be surprised when you spot people politely standing exactly where they’re not supposed to. Perhaps the biggest difference I noticed between the reopenings of CityWalk and Disney Springs was in the entertainment department. Obviously, the cinemas at both complexes remain closed, and neither Blue Man Group nor Cirque du Soleil (which was on the verge of debuting its new Drawn to Life show) have announced plans to resume performances. Universal, however, has reopened half of its Hollywood Drive-In Golf putt-putt course, and scheduled live performers like stilt-walkers and musicians to enliven the atmosphere. Disney Springs, on the other hand, offered only pre-recorded background music, periodically interrupted by canned announcements promoting social distancing. Ultimately, the families I saw at CityWalk and Disney Springs didn’t seem to mind the limited offerings or safety restrictions; instead, they just seemed happy to be outside in beautiful weather, enjoying the sight of other people for perhaps the first time in months, and dreaming of the day when the theme parks will reopen. Scientists remain skeptical about how soon that should happen (despite what Gov. DeSantis insists), but to be completely honest, I felt far more comfortable as a guest at Disney and Universal than I do buying essentials at my local grocery store. Personally, I’m not yet ready to resume my near-daily visits to the resorts, but for right now I’d say the taste of my first postquarantine Voodoo Doughnut was worth the risk. skubersky@orlandoweekly.com

Prior to taking this trip to bountiful, however, there is some COVIDiana to consider: On both my (takeout) visits, there were no other patrons in the joint except me. The tables were all appropriately distanced, though no hand sanitizers were to be seen anywhere. Also, none of the workers wore masks. When I popped into Tin & Taco next door, I noticed the same thing – tables appropriately distanced, but no hand sanitizers anywhere and workers didn’t wear masks. Not that they’re required to, I should say. It seems some of you care about such things, and others don’t, but, one thing’s certain: It’s getting testy out there, folks. As Manzano’s Deli, like all restaurants, is left to devise its own protocols, it’s important to understand the enormity of not just their sandwiches, but of the effects coronavirus is having on businesses and consumers alike. Stay safe.
I haven’t eaten at a restaurant since March 15. I felt reluctant doing so even back then, but off I went to Sourdough Bread House in Maitland for Turkish breakfast. When I got there, I refused to shake my friend’s extended hand, opting instead to do some awkward foot tap thing. Honestly, it was hard to fully enjoy my meal. I just kept feeling that I was doing something I shouldn’t be doing. Now, more than 10 weeks later, I’m still not ready to dine inside a restaurant, though walking into Bulla Gastrobar really made it tempting. The Spanish restaurant looked absolutely fetching on this sunny and temperate evening. Not to mention they restricted capacity to 15 percent, everyone wore masks, and hand sanitizing stations were scattered all about the place. I made a mental note and headed home with my order. Their special takeout menu offered plenty of items at a 25 percent discount, as well as a “Pick Two” option of a 10-ounce portion of paella and an appetizer for $14.95. I chose the patatas bravas to go along with the chicken paella, but when I got home, the patatas lacked the bravas. The mishap certainly wouldn’t have occurred had I dined inside the restaurant, but no matter; I just saved them for breakfast potatoes the next morning. The paella was great, as were two other dishes I ordered – crispy calamari served with tartar sauce and a bright and gorgeous octopus salad. BTW: They no longer offer 50 percent off takeout orders of wine, though they are offering 15 percent off your entire bill should you choose to dine inside the restaurant. Like I said … tempting.

ROCKS OFF
Perversion is the heavy metal fever dream Orlando both needs and deserves BY MATTHEW MOYER
I
t starts with a scream, as all heavy metal records worth their salt do. Thus begins the turbo-charged head rush of “Sex Metal,” a Motörhead-meets-Priest screech of burning rubber and leather and the first track off new Orlando metal project Perversion’s debut album. Though the band is new, the woman behind it will be very familiar to Orlando metal and punk – and goth! – aficionados. Since she was a teenager, Sarah Patricia has been a near-constant presence in Orlando’s underground, most notably with the gothic gloom of Autarx (RIP), punks Manic & the Depressives and the corpse-painted black metal trio Von Nacht, among others. It was only when Patricia started delving fully into her metal obsessions that all of her compositional skills and shredding chops came to the fore. During the last two months of coronavirus quarantine, Patricia has maintained an enviable rate of productivity; ironically, finally able to devote time to music when there’s nowhere to go. “I’ve spent so many years trying to balance music, a full-time job and my education in the scientific field, and it’s been hectic,” she says. “Right now, I just get to stay home, work from home – I’m lucky – and I have so much more free time to create.” First came a demo from Deicidal Regime in late March, a bleak slab of industrial music that captured the nihilistic instincts of pandemic panic. It was the sound of fortifying a bunker, adding spikes to every piece of clothing you own and sharpening your knives. Patricia’s next release, out earlier this month, proves to be even better. This is a project she’s been threatening to release for a while now. It all began last summer. Patricia “started bingeing on heavy metal for months on end,” and that’s metal with a capital ‘M.’ She was filling her turntable with the sleazy thrills of Judas Priest, Bitch, Jaded Lady, BlackLace, Witch Cross, Warlock and the Runaways. Shelter in place just gave her the time window to finally do the recording needed. And thus was born Perversion, a classic, raw batch of heavy metal tunes unabashedly fixated on sex and the leather-clad search for good times. “Heavy metal is so sexual
in nature to me, so the subject matter just seemed perfect and the obvious path to keep a consistent theme going in the lyrics and song titles,” says Patricia. Double entendre gives way to single entendre, and that in turn gives way to the anthemic “Blood Orgy.” The visual component of the project is similarly over-the-top wonderment. In a promo photo shoot for Perversion’s social media, Patricia – or Sarah Slave, for the purposes of this project – sports finery worthy of Betsy Bitch, Doro Pesch or solo Lita Ford, hair teased up to the heavens and singing into a vibrator. “The idea to use the vibrator like a microphone was funny to me,” Patricia admits. “I love carrying that imagery throughout the art and promo pictures. Someone even suggested I should make a modified microphone out of a Magic Wand!” The album artwork, done by former Orlandoan and Nightmare singer Fernanda Maura, takes the project into straight Manowar and Dio territory with a postapocalyptic landscape, demonic eyes and (yes) a severed head. Put out into the world at this particular moment, the whole package becomes an unintentional testament to the importance of fantasy and escapism as we’re all physically isolated. Oh, and if the world does go all Mad Max, there’s a pretty good chance that Patricia will be hoisting aloft a severed head at some juncture. The lyrics add an intriguing twist to the standard hedonism of metal lyrics. The usual gender dynamics of the genre that brought you “Girls, Girls, Girls” are subverted and toyed with, especially in the songs “She’s a Dancer” and “Sultry Eyes,” with Patricia’s narrator lusting after the protagonists of each tune. Patricia’s confirms the intentionality. “I’m not straight, and I love writing songs as a lady about ladies, and I think it’s cool to flip the script since there are so many men writing heavy metal songs about ladies,” she says. “I have many desires, many fantasies, and I love that I can use this project to channel that energy.” All of these factors, along with the requisite guitar shredding, give Perversion an unabashed celebratory edge that might surprise someone familiar with Patricia only

from the occult vibes of Von Nacht, or her dour Siouxsie-esque presence out front in Autarx. But that’s life; people change. “I’m a punk guitar player who took a nosedive into writing metal several years ago,” shrugs Patricia. “I’ve gotten more feedback on this than anything I’ve done as a musician. It’s wild. People think it’s really old school and fun.” Though she already has ideas for presenting Perversion live, we’re going to have to wait – maybe a very long time – before we get to see the band take the stage. And by that time, Perversion is going to be a Gainesville band. Patricia was accepted into orlandoweekly.com

a master’s program at University of Florida and plans to leave the city this summer. “I am moving to pursue an M.S. in Entomology and a doctoral degree in an interdisciplinary program that blends entomology, nematology, plant pathology, weed science and soil science,” she says. “I found my calling through my love for nature and growing food.” So what’s to be done for listeners who want more Perversion in their lives? “I just got a green screen and I’m hoping to make a music video soon,” says Patricia. Hell-bent for leather indeed. music@orlandoweekly.com

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) I’ve got a message for you, courtesy of poet Lisel Mueller. I think her wisdom can help you thrive in the coming weeks. She writes, “The past pushed away, the future left unimagined, for the sake of the glorious, difficult, passionate present.” Of course, it’s always helpful for us to liberate ourselves from the oppressive thoughts of what once was in the past and what might be in the future. But it’ll be especially valuable for you to claim that superpower in the coming weeks. To the degree that you do, the present will be more glorious and passionate and not so difficult. CANCER (June 21-July 22) When Lewis Carroll’s fictional heroine Alice visits the exotic underground realm known as Wonderland, she encounters two odd men named Tweedledee and Tweedledum. The latter tells her, “You know very well you’re not real.” He’s implying that Alice is merely a character in the dream of a man who’s sleeping nearby. This upsets her. “I am real!” she protests, and breaks into tears. Tweedledum presses on, insisting she’s just a phantom. Alice summons her courageous wisdom and thinks to herself, “I know they’re talking nonsense, and it’s foolish to cry about it.” I suspect you Cancerians may have to deal with people and influences that give you messages akin to those of Tweedledum. If that happens, be like Alice. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) “The less you fear, the more power you will have,” says the rapper known as 50 Cent. I agree with him. If you can dissolve even, say, 25 percent of your fear, your ability to do what you want will rise significantly, as will your influence and clout. But here’s the major riddle: How exactly can you dissolve your fear? My answers to that question would require far more room than I have in this horoscope. But here’s the really good news, Leo: In the coming weeks, you will naturally have an abundance of good insights about how to dissolve your own fear. Trust what your intuition tells you. And be receptive to clues that serendipity brings you. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) For his film Parasite, Virgo filmmaker Bong Joon-ho received Academy Awards for Best Picture, Best Director and Best Original Screenplay. In his natal horoscope, the filmmaker has Pluto conjunct his sun in Virgo, and during the time Parasite began to score major success, Saturn and Pluto were making a favorable transit to that powerful point in his chart. I’m expecting the next six months to be a time when you can make significant progress toward your own version of a Bong Joon-ho–style achievement. In what part of your life is that most likely to happen? Focus on it. Feed it. Love it. 26
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) According to my analysis of the astrological omens, the coming weeks will be a favorable time for you to seek out, seduce and attract luck. To inspire you in this holy task, I’ll provide a prayer written by Hoodoo conjurer Stephanie Rose Bird: “O sweet luck, I call your name. Luck with force and power to make change, walk with me and talk through me. With your help, all that can and should be will be!” If there are further invocations you’d like to add to hers, Libra, please do. The best way to ensure that good fortune will stream into your life is to have fun as you draw it to you.
for myself at my boyfriend’s house and a lyric started pouring out and I had to catch it, so I ran to another room to write it down, but then the kitchen caught fire. His cabinets were charred, and he was furious. But it was worth it for a song.” My perspective: Scott’s level of devotion to the muse is too intense for my tastes. Personally, I would have taken the burger off the stove before fleeing the scene to record my good idea. What about you, Aquarius? According to my analysis, you’re in a phase when creative ideas should flow even better than usual. Pay close attention. Be prepared to capture as much of that potentially life-altering stuff as possible.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Scorpio comedian John Cleese does solo work, but many of his successful films, albums, stage shows and TV programs have arisen from joining forces with other comedians. “When you collaborate with someone else on something creative,” he testifies, “you get to places that you would never get to on your own.” I propose you make this your temporary motto, Scorpio. Whatever line of work or play you’re in, the coming weeks will offer opportunities to start getting involved in sterling synergies and symbioses. To overcome the potential limitations of social distancing, make creative use of Zoom and other online video conferencing.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) To protect ourselves and others from the pandemic, most of us have been spending more time than usual at home – often engaged in what amounts to enforced relaxation. For some of us, that has been a problem. But I’m going to propose that it will be the opposite of a problem for you in the next three weeks. In my astrological opinion, your words to live by will be this counsel from author and philosopher Mike Dooley: “What if it was your downtime, your loungingin-bed-too-long time, that made possible your greatest achievements? Would they still make you feel guilty? Or would you allow yourself to enjoy them?”
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) “Wherever I am, let me never forget to distinguish want from need,” vows author Barbara Kingsolver. “Let me be a good animal,” she adds. That would be a stirring prayer to keep simmering at the forefront of your awareness in the next six weeks. According to my understanding of the astrological omens, you’ll be getting clear signals about the differences between your wants and needs. You will also discover effective strategies about how to satisfy them both in the post-pandemic world, and fine intuitions about which one to prioritize at any particular time. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Writing some Chinese characters can be quite demanding. To make “biáng,” for example, which is used in the name for a certain kind of noodle, you must draw 58 separate strokes. This is a good metaphor for exactly what you should avoid in the coming weeks: spending too much time and devoting too much thought and getting wrapped up in too much complexity about trivial matters. Your focus should instead be on simple, bold approaches that encourage you to be crisp and decisive. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Singer-songwriter Jill Scott is strongly committed to her creative process. She tells us, “I was once making a burger

ARIES (March 21-April 19) “The best of my nature reveals itself in play, and play is sacred,” wrote the feisty Aries author Karen Blixen, who sometimes used the pen name Isak Dinesen. The attitude described in that statement helps illuminate the meaning of another one of her famous quotations: “I do not think that I could ever really love a woman who had not, at one time or another, been up on a broomstick.” In my interpretation of this humorous remark, Blixen referred to the fact that she had a strong preference for witchy women with rascally magical ways. I bring this to your attention, Aries, because I’m inviting you to cultivate a Blixen-like streak of sacred play and sly magic in the coming days. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Taurus music legend Willie Nelson has played the same guitar since 1969. He calls it “my horse,” and named it after Trigger, a famous horse in Hollywood films. Although Nelson still loves the tones that come from his instrument, it’s neither sleek nor elegant. It’s bruised with multiple stains and has a jagged gash near its sound hole. Some Tauruses want their useful things to be fine and beautiful, but not Willie. Having said that, I wonder if maybe he will finally change guitars sometime soon. For you Bulls, the coming months will be time to consider trading in an old horse for a new one.
