orlandoweekly.com ● AUG. 17-23, 2022 ● ORLANDO WEEKLY 7 ¶ Climate impacts are a crime, not a crisis As someone who follows local and national news reports, I must tell you I am worried about the recent extreme heat and wildfires raging across the country. I feel for people who lose their lives and livelihoods to ex treme weather, and I’m scared that it’s only a matter of time until it directly hits me and my community.Seeingheadlines in local news outlets covering these climate disasters made me realize that most news stories show no con nection between them and their main cause: fossil fuels. This is dangerous, because many people will continue to refuse to see that longer, hotter and deadlier summers are caused and perpetuated by the disastrous coal, oil and gas projects — and the fossil fuel industry.Thescience is clear — the longer we allow coal, oil and gas companies to dig and burn, the worse the impacts of the climate crisis will be. With every fraction of a degree of warming, we’ll see and suffer more extreme heat, droughts, floods, wildfires and hurri canes. But the fossil fuel industry continues to ignore these alerts and undermine our chances for a safer future, and CO2 emissions keep rising. We all know this is causing global heating, and resulting in extreme weather events, yet they keep digging, burning and profiting, with zero accountability. Climate impacts — like the recent heat waves and wildfires — disproportionately af fect people and communities who are already marginalized and disadvantaged. People who did the least to cause the climate crisis suffer the worst from its impacts — they lose liveli hoods, hope and worse: their lives — while oil companies continue to hit record profits. This is wrong on so many levels. Local, regional, and national media have an important role to play — and a moral obliga tion to tell the whole truth. It’s time to make one thing about extreme weather very clear: it’s not a “crisis” that just happens to us — it’s a crime, and the fossil fuel industry is to blame. And saying it once isn’t enough. Media has an important job to do to turn the tide of public opinion, and help the world avoid the worst of the climate impacts. Please tell the REAL story about the cli mate crisis. — Andrea Chisari, Titusville

Thelose.only way we are going to protect our elections is to fight back and make our voices heard. If our vote wasn’t powerful, insurrec tionists wouldn’t be working so hard to take our freedom to vote away. It’s up to us to hold election deniers accountable at the polls and elect democracy defenders up and down the ballot on November 8th. — John Dervin, Apopka ON FIFTH AVENUE’ BY CLAY JONES

The January 6th hearings have wound down for the moment but I won’t forget what I learned — that what happened that day wasn’t an isolated attack on our Capitol. It’s part of an ongoing criminal conspiracy to un dermine our freedom to vote and to choose our elected leaders. Trump and his pals worked together to try to stop the peaceful transfer of power be cause the 2020 presidential election didn’t go their way. Now, they’re working to make sure all of our elections go their way in the future, whether we vote in their favor or not. Never before have we seen so many candi dates running for office on a platform that promises to destroy our democracy from the inside out. Worst of all, many of these right-wing extremists are looking to take over election administration, running for offices like secretary of state and county clerk. Once they’re sworn in, many won’t hesitate to over turn future elections if they or their MAGA allies

“Dr. Cassanello has made clear that the foundation of his teaching methodology is not to endorse or advocate the arguments and theories in material he assigns, but rather to foster in his students the ‘critical thinking’ skills that will enable them to think for themselves,” the state’s attorneys wrote Friday. “Because the act prohibits only the endorsement of the prohibited concepts — and expressly permits discussion of them — even if some reading material that Dr. Cassanello assigns expressly endorses one of the eight concepts, his act of assigning the material would clearly not violate the act.”

Pushaw ‘takes the gloves off,’ backers try again for a recreational marijuana use bill, Florida schools are radically understaffed, and other news you may have missed BY ALEX GALBRAITH, RYAN DAILEY AND THE NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA Orange County Public Schools — which, with more than 205,000 students, is among the nation’s 10 largest districts — was scrounging to fill vacancies the day before students returned. “Of our 14,382 instructional staff, we currently have about 100 classroom vacancies. The district is planning to deploy district personnel to fill these vacancies, if needed. These numbers are fluid due to the fact that some candidates may still be going through the hiring process,” Michael Ollendorff, media relations manager for OCPS, told the News Service. The scarcity of educators has led districts to explore options such as offering teachers supplemental pay to teach during planning periods and district-level personnel taking up classroom duties. While school staffing has been challenging for some time, Florida Association of District School Superintendents CEO Bill Montford said the issue has become “much more difficult this year and the problem much more serious” this year. “And there are a multitude of reasons why. You have COVID, and quite frankly the whole atmosphere of being a classroom teacher today is just more challenging than it was even a few years ago,” Montford said.

» Appeals court puts Jones ballot ruling on hold An appeals court last week put on hold a circuit judge’s ruling that would block Democrat Rebekah Jones from running for a Northwest Florida congressional seat. The 1st District Court of Appeal issued a two-sentence order granting Jones’ request for a stay of a ruling by Leon County Circuit Judge John Cooper that said she was ineligible to run in Congressional District 1. The stay effectively means that Jones can remain a candidate while the Tallahassee-based appeals court considers whether she is eligible. The order did not give a detailed explanation but said Cooper’s decision disqualifying Jones “for nomination for election to the United States House of Representatives from Florida’s 1st Congressional District in the 2022 election cycle is stayed pending further order of this [appeals] court.” Jones, a former state Department of Health employee who drew widespread attention when she alleged Gov. Ron DeSantis’ administration manipulated COVID-19 data, has battled Peggy Schiller in the Democratic primary in the district in Escambia, Santa Rosa, Okaloosa and Walton counties. Democrats are trying to unseat U.S. Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Florida, in the heavily Republican district. Schiller and a voter filed a lawsuit in July contending that Jones was ineligible to run because she had not met a legal requirement of being a registered Democrat for 365 days before qualifying.

» DeSantis press secretary Christina Pushaw resigns to work on re-election campaign: ‘The gloves are off’ Conspiracy theorist and one-time unregistered foreign agent Christina Pushaw has had quite the career as Gov. Ron DeSantis’ press secretary. As the state has taken away rights for women, policed language in schools and abetted the rapid spread of COVID-19, Pushaw has been there to bark at anyone who dared mention that the state was going to hell. That ended last week when Pushaw announced that she has resigned from her position as press secretary to become a member of Gov. DeSantis’ re-election campaign. In her letter announcing the change, Pushaw celebrated the state’s attacks on LGBT rights, small government sovereignty and citizens’ abilities to go about their lives without being harassed by police. In sharing the letter on Twitter, Pushaw said the “gloves were off.” We’d say it’s better to put gloves on before handling a giant pile of shit, but we’re not privy to the norms in Tallahassee.

» Proposed amendment would allow recreational use of marijuana This time it’s going to work: That’s what backers of a recreational-marijuana initiative that launched last week say, despite a history of previous proposed constitutional amendments failing. Trulieve, the state’s largest medical-marijuana operator, and Floridabased country music artists the Bellamy Brothers are backing a proposed amendment that would allow recreational use of marijuana by people 21 or older. Supporters of the new proposal, which launched on Monday, told the News Service of Florida they’re confident it will satisfy Florida Supreme Court requirements to make it onto the 2024 ballot and will gain support from voters. The “Adult Personal Use of Marijuana” proposal would allow adults “to possess, purchase, or use marijuana products and marijuana accessories for non-medical personal consumption by smoking, ingestion, or otherwise.” It also would allow “medical marijuana treatment centers, and other state licensed entities, to acquire, cultivate, process, manufacture, sell and distribute such products and accessories.” The initiative would not authorize people to grow marijuana plants for personal use. Justices last year rejected two recreational cannabis initiatives, citing ballot summary language that they argued could mislead voters. The latest adult-use effort comes after voters in 2016 approved a constitutional amendment to broadly legalize medical marijuana in Florida. More than 740,000 patients currently are authorized to purchase cannabis.

While most districts started the school year Wednesday, the challenge of scrambling to hire educators and personnel such as bus drivers continues to linger.

» As the school year starts, more than 9,500 teaching and staff positions are still open Florida students began returning to classrooms last week, but an ongoing teacher and support-staff shortage has some counties still advertising positions and exploring creative options to fill vacancies. A February report by the state Department of Education said that just shy of 4,500 teacher vacancies existed in schools around the state as the previous academic year wound down. A lack of support staff such as bus drivers and food service workers also has presented a challenge. The Florida Education Association in January counted more than 9,500 teaching and staff positions advertised on school websites.

» State targets professor’s arguments on race instruction law Attorneys for the state are trying to convince a federal judge to reject a University of Central Florida professor’s arguments in a battle about a new state law that restricts the way race-related concepts can be taught in classrooms. In court documents filed last Friday, the state contended that Robert Cassanello, an associate professor of history at the University of Central Florida, does not have legal standing to challenge the law and that his request for a preliminary injunction should be rejected. Among other things, the documents contend Cassanello has not shown that he would be harmed by the controversial law — which Gov. Ron DeSantis dubbed the “Stop Wrongs to Our Kids and Employees Act,” or Stop WOKE Act. The law lists a series of race-related concepts and says it would constitute discrimination if students are subjected to instruction that “espouses, promotes, advances, inculcates or compels” them to believe the concepts.

Younger workers, she said, need patience, compassion and training. And she reminds older workers to take a break to eat food and take their medication. “We do have the seniors who have sacrificed their youth to work, and who continue to work well into their advanced age, because they can’t afford to retire,” Cortes says. “That’s a shame, and that’s a travesty.”

In addition to the direct benefits to workers, research shows that raising wages for airport workers can lead to higher job performance, higher productivity, lower turnover rates — and consequentially, improvements in air port safety and security. “A lot of these workers, when there’s an emergency, they end up becoming part of the first response, you know, the first line of defense,” Dr. Enrique Lopezlira, director of the University of California–Berkeley Center for Labor Research and Education’s Low-Wage Work Program, told Orlando Weekly Lopezlira, who’s studied the impact of wages and turnover on airport safety and security, says lower turnover reduces the constant need to train or retrain new workers. This can also reduce any existing gaps in security or safety measures that could pose a risk to worker and public safety. The union’s survey showed high turnover is a big issue at Florida airports. More than 90 percent of workers surveyed said many airport workers were quitting their jobs at their company. Of those, 98 percent said workers left for other jobs that offered better pay and benefits. But in Florida, unlike some other states, wage mandates for private employers are pre-empted by state law. In 2003, Florida lawmakers passed a law prohibiting local govern ments from passing ordinances that would require private employers to pay workers more than Florida’s state mini mumAndwage.in2019, state courts ruled that Florida airports could no longer enforce living wage ordinances established in places like Broward County and Miami-Dade County, for example, that had previously been expanded to include air line contracted workers, although companies at MIA and FLL still do. Most of Central Florida, including Orlando and Orange County, has no such living wage ordinance for airport work ers.The Good Jobs for Good Airports Act, however, would overrule any state pre-emption, Helene O’Brien, Florida director for 32BJ SEIU, told Orlando Weekly. “The fed eral bill would tie higher standards to federal funding,” says O’Brien.Steven Davis, a wheelchair attendant and baggage handler for JetBlue who’s worked at MCO since 1975, says the work ers at MCO “are not getting a fair shake” for the work they do. As the airport’s first-ever contracted skycap, the 70-yearold father of five and grandfather of 11 is a cancer survivor who, over the years, has served celebrities like Diana Ross, Michael Jackson and John Wayne. “I am a part of this airport’s history. Orlando International Airport has changed dramatically over the years, but the one thing that remains the same is the low wages,” Davis, who has a difficult time speaking as a result of his bout with throat cancer, told Orlando Weekly in an emailed statement. When he started working at MCO almost 50 years ago, Davis earned just $2.01 an hour. Up until a couple of months ago, he said he was still making just about $6 an hour, as a tipped worker, when the union helped increase his hourly wage to $10 an hour. “Although I love my job and enjoy working with the public, I am tired. I would like to retire, spend time with my family, and go fishing from time to time,” Davis continues. “Every day, my colleagues and I come to work and provide the best customer service. We help put those planes in the sky. Many of our jobs go unseen, but we are here and we deserve better.”

The union has backed the Good Jobs for Good Airports Act, a bill recently introduced by U.S. Sen. Ed Markey (D-Massachusetts) and U.S. Rep. Chuy Garcia (D-Illinois) in the House. That legislation would establish a prevailing wage of $15 or higher plus vital job benefits for all U.S. air port workers employed by airports (and the businesses they contract with) that receive federal dollars.

Many contracted airport workers, like Cortes, are immi grants and people of color. They perform work that is essential to the operations of Florida’s major air hubs: wheeling elderly, sick and disabled passengers throughout the airport; transporting baggage onto planes; and sanitizing airplane cabins, to help keep passengers safe from COVID-19 and other health hazards. When Cortes first moved to Orlando from Puerto Rico seven years ago, she worked at Burger King. Then she worked in hotel housekeeping, and eventually she found her way to the airport job. Today, she works four days a week, 10 hours a day. She’s a shop steward for her union at the airport and one of the biggest advocates for their older workers.

Cortes herself is also grappling with complications of her own health scare — a condition she’d worried was a COVID19 infection, but turned out to be a bacterial infection of the liver, causing headaches, stomach problems and terrible dis comfort in her legs. Like 90 percent of the Florida airport workers surveyed by SEIU, Cortes does not have paid sick days, vacation days or health insurance through her job. She is, however, insured through Obamacare. She’s still going through testing with a doctor to determine the scope of her liver problem. If it’s just a bacterial infec tion, that can be treated, Cortes’ doctor told her; but if there’s indication of approaching liver failure, that could require surgery.Fornow, however, Cortes continues to work — and to fight with her union, the 32BJ SEIU local, to secure a living wage and job benefits for all airport workers.

“We’re humans,” Cortes says. Airport workers like herself get sick. They lose loved ones. They wake up in the morning sometimes not feeling well enough to go to work, but they force themselves to anyway because they can’t afford not to. For them, Cortes says, benefits are just a basic dignity and a basic exchange for their hard labor. With their union, they’re calling on lawmakers to support the Good Jobs for Good Airports Act — which has already received support from Florida’s U.S. Reps. Val Demings, Darren Soto and Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick, per the union. They’re also demanding that state leadership and Florida’s governor call on the airline industry — which received a $54 billion bailout from taxpayers in CARES Act funds — to pay contractors fair wages and provide vital benefits. “Airlines create thousands of jobs and enjoy billions in profits and government bailouts. But if those jobs don’t pay a living wage, provide paid sick days, vacation time, and health insurance, they’re not good quality jobs,” says Davis. “Without good quality jobs, airports will continue to suffer high employee turnover and delayed flights. That’s not good business for anybody.”

UP IN THE AIR Orlando airport workers are still fighting for fair wages, respect and dignity on the job. Safer airport workers mean safer airplane passengers, say experts BY MCKENNA SCHUELER D alines Cortes cleans 20 to 25 airplane cabins in Orlando a day, with a team of seven or eight other cabin cleaners — sometimes less, if they’re shortstaffed. She works for Delta Airlines at Orlando International Airport, one of the busiest air hubs in the nation, as an entry point to the so-called “Happiest Place on Earth.” Cortes, a 46-year-old immigrant from Puerto Rico, earns $15 an hour cleaning for Delta, which has larger cabins on its planes than some other airlines, she says. Her current wage is up from $13 when she first began working at the airport part-time a year and a half ago. At that time, she juggled sev eral part-time gigs: working for the airport, a Dollar Tree and a gym — the latter two both paid less, but it helped pay the bills.Today, she lives in a mobile home with her son, who works to help cover the skyrocketing cost of living in the Orlando area as he attends school. Although they own the mobile home where they currently reside, they still have to pay rent for the plot of land it’s situated upon in the mobile home park — and that rent has increased in recent years from $540 to $740, a 37 percent increase. The cost of electricity, car insur ance, groceries and gas has also gone up. A $15 wage, working full-time in Orlando, is “not enough,” to make ends meet, Cortes told Orlando Weekly in Spanish, translated to English through an interpreter with her union. “We [at the airport] are sometimes overworked, and we do our very best to clean everything within a certain amount of time to get the airplanes back to the gate so that the passen gers can Airportboard.”workers at the Orlando International Airport are underpaid, and often lack basic job benefits like paid sick leave and healthcare, according to a new survey released by the 32BJ Service Employees International Union (SEIU). The union, representing about 2,500 contracted airport service workers in Florida, surveyed 639 contracted workers total from the Orlando International Airport (MCO), Tampa International Airport, Fort Lauderdale–Hollywood Airport (FLL), and Miami International Airport (MIA) between April and July One-hundred2022. and thirty-two of the contracted workers surveyed — such as cabin cleaners, wheelchair attendants, baggage handlers and others — came from MCO. According to the survey, workers at MCO earn less than $12 an hour — just a bit above Florida’s $10 minimum wage — and spend 63 percent of their income on housing expenses. To afford fair market rent in the Orlando area, MCO workers would need to earn at least $23.79 an hour. Eighty-two percent of MCO workers surveyed shared they had trouble paying the bills. “Despite Florida being a worldwide destination, Florida’s working families are struggling to get by,” the union’s report reads. “With historic inflation levels and exorbitant housing prices eating away little wage gains, working people are being pushed further away from achieving the American Dream.”

“At a minimum, Garland must resign or be impeached,” Hawley continued. “The search warrant must be published. Christopher Wray must be removed. And the FBI reformed top to Floridabottom.”Gov. Ron DeSantis: “The raid on [Mar-a-Lago] is another escalation in the weaponization of federal agencies against the regime’s political opponents, while people like Hunter Biden get treated with kid gloves. Now the Regime is getting another 87k IRS agents to wield against its adversar ies? Banana Republic.” Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene and other far-right types started a “Defund the FBI” campaign. Taylor Greene also filed articles of impeachment against Attorney General Merrick Garland, accusing him of “[overseeing] a denigration of the principles of our democratic republic by politicizing our Department of Justice, and utilizing the Federal Bureau of Investigation as a Federal police force to punish or intimidate who questions or opposes the current regime.” Again, none of these people knew anything about the FBI’s search when they ran their mouths. But they all knew — or should have known — that the DOJ doesn’t comment on ongo ing investigations and couldn’t publish a search warrant filed under seal, though Trump could have released it whenever heWhichwanted.is to say, the calls for “transparency” and “answers” were designed to inflame the MAGA masses, nothing more. And they worked: Magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhart, who signed the search warrant, is facing death threats. Conservative forums exploded with talk of civil war. Then a MAGA acolyte tried to shoot up the Cincinnati FBI office and got himself killed in the process. Even after that, Breitbart published the names of the two FBI agents involved in the search, which, of course, put a target on their backs. The unignorable irony here is that the last time the FBI talked out of school about a politically charged investigation — former director James Comey in 2016 — it got Trump elected. The rest of this temper tantrum, however, reeks of projection. Hawley, who played a pivotal role in trying to overturn the results of the 2020 elections, purports to lecture Biden on taking the republic into “dangerous waters”? Rubio, who in 2016 said Trump could not be trusted with the nuclear codes, says that investigating Trump for illegally keeping nuclear documents is a junta? Scott, who defended Trump’s attempt to blackmail Ukraine into announcing a phony investigation into Biden, believes the Biden administration has a “history” of going after “political opponents”? And not that you’d expect better from DeSantis, but that 87,000 IRS agents canard is a lie.

Besides, the FBI — which is, historically speaking, a shit institution — deserves better critics. CLAY JONES

orlandoweekly.com ● AUG. 17-23, 2022 ● ORLANDO WEEKLY 13 WE NEED TO GET

THIS ONE RIGHT

Soon, Merrick Garland could face the most difficult choice of any attorney general since the Nixon administration: If the DOJ indicts Trump, Republicans will say the charges are politically motivated, and there’s a not-insignificant chance of violence. But if the DOJ lets Trump off the hook because it’s scared of the consequences, then the rule of law means nothing. I don’t pretend to know how this will — or should — play out. But it’s very important that we in the media get this next part right. Don’t tolerate politicians who’ve already exposed themselves as craven liars and hacks. Don’t insult your audi ence by treating those politicians like serious people. A precarious democracy can’t afford to look the other way while self-serving authoritarians pour gasoline on the fire.

A precarious democracy can’t afford to look the other way while self-serving authoritarians pour gas on the fire BY JEFFREY C. BILLMAN T here’s a lot we still don’t know about the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago last week. What we know, or think we know, comes from a mishmash of anonymous sources, Donald Trump’s confirmations via protestation, and the frag ments of information in the public record. Likewise, there’s a lot we don’t know about where this is headed. It’s safe to say things don’t look good for the former president — he had documents in his possession he wasn’t supposed to have, some of which were highly classified and reportedly pertain to nuclear weapons, after his lawyers told the FBI he’d given them back — but we don’t yet know how bad they are. We don’t know whether the Justice Department, having retrieved the documents, will call it a day, charge Trump with a document- or obstruction-related offense, or if this is a piece of something more insidious. (It’s curious that Trump, who wouldn’t read national security briefings if they didn’t have bright pictures, was hanging on to top-secret nuclear docu ments.)It’snot impossible that the FBI and DOJ took a sledgeham mer to an anthill. It’s not impossible that they pulled the pin on America’s political grenade over a small-potatoes process crime. Cops are cops, even when they’re going after someone you don’t like. So let’s leave for another day the questions we can’t answer. And let’s stipulate that what we don’t know now, a week after the search, we certainly didn’t know a few hours after federal agents left the property. That brings us to the most concerning aspect of the last week: the snap judgments, rendered in absolute ignorance but with absolute certainty, that flooded conservative media, denouncing the search as the end of American democracy. “The Justice Department is unleashing political furies it can’t control and may not understand,” the Wall Street Journal’s editorial board warned in an editorial. “The FBI raid was unprecedented for America but familiar to those in Florida who fled nations where political opposition was criminalized,” tweeted Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Florida. “The @FBI’s raid of Mar-a-Lago is incredibly concerning, especially given the Biden admin’s history of going after par ents & other political opponents,” Sen. Rick Scott, R-Florida, the head of the Republicans’ Senate campaign committee, wrote hours after the search. “This is 3rd World country stuff. We need answers NOW. The FBI must explain what they were doing today & why.” “The raid by Joe Biden’s FBI on the home of a former president who is also Biden’s chief political opponent is an unprecedented assault on democratic norms and the rule of law,” tweeted Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Missouri, self-proclaimed constitutional lawyer and Jan. 6 tough guy, the morning after the raid. “Biden has taken our republic into dangerous waters.”

skubersky@orlandoweekly.com ‘Live All in Love’ is creative kismet: an evening exploring the concept of love through spoken word, movement and visual projections, created by a couple 14 years in the making BY SETH KUBERSKY ‘Live All in Love’ premieres at ME Theatre this weekend | photo by Daniel Cooksley

orlandoweekly.com ● AUG. 17-23, 2022 ● ORLANDO WEEKLY 15

I’ve experienced my share of sad milestones over the quarter-century I’ve been involved in Orlando’s performing arts scene, from saying premature fare wells to cherished colleagues to watching beloved institutions go extinct. But the flip side of such longevity in this community is the opportunity to witness artists I’ve fol lowed for years as individuals finally coming together, creating a wonderful new whole that’s more than the sum of their already impressive parts. This weekend (Aug. 20-27), ME Theatre will present a perfect example of such cre ative kismet: Live All in Love, an original “passion project” from one of Central Florida theater’s most photogenic power couples, dancer/choreographer Elaine Hoxie and performer/photographer Daniel Cooksley. I’ve known them both too long to pretend journalistic objectivity, so I recently invited them over for a chat on my porch about their first-ever co-production, and was surprised to learn in the process how I’m unwittingly woven into their romantic journey. I first became aware of Daniel Cooksley in the early aughts, when he attracted attention for his sensitive portrayal of Billy Bibbit in One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest. That was followed by a string of acclaimed perfor mances; Orlando Weekly’s Steve Schneider named Cooksley “Best Young Actor” in 2005. But what I never realized was that prior to that turn in Cuckoo’s Nest — which was only his second on-stage role — Cooksley had already enjoyed a full career as a fisher man in the Caribbean before the acting bug bit and he (unsuccessfully) auditioned for a play in Key West with Kelly McGillis. “I was a licensed captain, 100-ton Near Coastal Master’s, that I’d been working for 16 years. And I said, ‘You know what? I’m going to hang up that hat to pursue acting.’” Elaine Hoxie, who grew up studying dance in the Midwest and credits “a wild hair up [her] ass” for her 2003 move here, came on my radar not long after Cooksley for her work with Casey Saxon’s CineDance, as well as the theme parks and Orlando’s then-nascent burlesque scene. As it turns out, Hoxie and Cooksley first met in 2007 in the Orlando Shakes greenroom for Bent, a Holocaust drama I co-produced through Empty Spaces Theatre Co. With Cooksley playing a tortured concentration camp pris oner and Hoxie performing a dance preshow, Cooksley recalls their contact was “just in passing [because of] the context and the content of the show. It wasn’t like we were backstage and everyone was like all happy andAfterjoyous.”that brief encounter, both went their separate ways. Cooksley became a bird train er and a skilled carpenter, and focused on getting sober after years of struggles with substances, recently celebrating 10 years of sobriety. Hoxie sojourned in Los Angeles and Las Vegas, stunt-doubling for Pink (which she calls “one of my favorite jobs I’ve ever had: We’re close in age, we’re both Virgos, we vibe”) and co-starring in sexy shows on the Strip. But each eventually made their way back to Florida. Cooksley starred in some of Theatre Downtown’s final productions before concentrating on his photography business; and Hoxie has danced with troupes across the region, including her own Foxy’s Den, who are weekly fixtures at Mathers Social Gathering. The pair came together again in 2019 on the cast of Phantasmagoria — yet another show I co-produced — and quickly became close platonic friends, finally making the transition to romantic partners during the 2021 Orlando Fringe Festival. Hoxie has also become the muse for Cooksley’s striking photographs, which he posts on Instagram at @allin_photography1. One of those pictures — featuring Hoxie with flowers Band-aid-ed across her body — was selected for an art expo in Tampa last year, sowing the seeds for their new show after she choreographed a dance for its debut. Inspired by Alice in Wonderland and their favorite art-rock band, the duo nurtured that single piece into an entire evening exploring the abstract concept of love through spoken word, movement and visual projections, all created by the couple. With Cooksley serving as narrator, Hoxie embodies the love-seeking protagonist, joined onstage by Carlos Dimas and Kim Matovina in a dance-driven narra tive inspired by her own story. Since the subject is so personal, Hoxie says she and Cooksley “have literally done everything from the editing, the video, the photography, the promotions, the market ing,” because as Cooksley says, “It’s hard to hand that over to somebody who may not be as passionate, and put as much emotional truthful effort into it.” “We are not in any way saying we’re gurus or life coaches, or anything like that,” Cooksley disclaims in his opening mono logue, insisting “all we’re doing is just telling a story that is important to us,” but don’t be surprised if his and Hoxie’s radiant glow — which is evident in the way each listens with laser focus while the other speaks — rubs off you on a little. “I think that there are times when we focus on the negative, especially in these fucking times,” observes Cooksley in clos ing. “It’s so easy and you get inundated and consumed by that, but there’s just as much love; there’s just as much positive energy out there as there is negative if you choose to focus on that.”

Birria tacos reign supreme in College Park at Mexican street-food spot Quesa Loco BY BAO LE-HUU E ven among the vast and varied field of local Mexican restaurants, Quesa Loco has a distinguishing hook. And it begins with, and ends up soaked in, gorgeous birria. Quesa Loco doesn’t just lean into the famous brothy stew from Jalisco, they validate their nutty name and apply it to ramen and pizza. But even amid the playfulness, there’s some deep, soulful tradition cooking here. Quesa Loco, the restaurant, is the recent brick-and-mortar extension of the popular Orlando food truck of the same name. The relaxed eatery is in the tiny commercial strip on the College Park end of Fairbanks that also houses local favorite Mediterranean Deli. Inside, their spot is festive without frills, with an order counter and an airy din ingThanksspace. to its current popularity, the term “street food” is almost stretched beyond meaning — but Quesa Loco’s street spirit is legit. Case in point, their Mexican street corn: huge full-cob elotes heavily dusted in your choice of crumb coat ing, from traditional cotija cheese ($5.50) to food-porn toppings like Flamin’ Hot Cheetos, regular Cheetos, or Takis in blue or red ($6.25). A stoner gourmet’s fantasy, indeed. The corn’s also available in a cup as esquite ($5), also with the above toppings ($5.50), but never in human history has corn ever been more pleasurable off the cob. Now, on to the birria, which is beef-based at Quesa Loco. As the house specialty, the consommé is offered alongside most of the main dishes as a dip. The birria here is a zesty, slightly spicy broth slicked with that signature red oil. Whichever handheld food you choose, one dunk into this sexy broth and you’ll have a thing of glorious succu lence.The best one-stop tour of Quesa Loco’s forte is the birria platter ($17.50), a gluttonous spread that includes one quesabirria taco, one birria red taco, one birria Tijuanastyle taco, one birria mulita and, of course, a large side of birria consommé. The platter features braised birria beef as the filling, but other choices like pastor, chorizo or chicken are offered if you order items individually. All tortillas on the tacos and mulita are griddle-crisped to be a beautiful textural foil to the dip, and all come dressed tradition ally with cilantro and onion. salsas.twoincludeAccompanimentslimewedgesandkindsoftastyhot If you go à la carte, do the quesabirria taco or mulita. What makes them a little extra is the mozzarella cheese, which provides melted luxury inside and crisped perfec tion on the outside. It’s at once comforting and opulent. For a fresher bite, go with the Tijuana-style taco for its bright guacamole zing.If you’re especially hip to the magic of dunking, the birria torta ($13.50) is the ulti mate. The French ain’t got shit on this dip sandwich. This true Mexican hero stuffs birria beef into a soft, plump, delicately toasted roll that sops up that divine consommé better than any taco. Inside, it’s fresh with onions, cilantro, tomato and the hot pop of raw jalapeño slices. Making it all deluxe, the griddled cheese once again does double duty as gooey andDeepeningcrispy. their Mexican cred, the spice extends into the desserts. Even the fruit cup ($8) comes in sweet or spicy. The mango nada ($8) I had was a crazy fiesta of a sundae featuring lots of lovely and light mango sorbet topped with fresh mango chunks. But the garnishes are where it gets uniquely Mexican. The drizzle, tamarindo stick, spoon candy and chili pepper powder-covered lollipop introduce flavors of chamoy, Tajin and tamarind to edge all the sweetness with some bracing salt and spice. It’s a palate play that’s heady and effective. To quench, they offer huge cups of aguas frescas ($4) in a handful of flavors that change daily. The mango one I had was fresh and wonderfully natural. The horchata ($4) was also solid. While birria tacos are old hat on the West Coast, they’re still catching fire here. Now with a full restaurant, Quesa Loco is pushing hard to be the style’s leading Prometheus in Orlando. Their deliciously fun dunkables are what you get when you balance Mexican heritage and young street flair like this. dining@orlandoweekly.com

PREMIERES WEDNESDAY: High Heat — From Mexico comes a new series about a young man whose investigation of his brother’s death leads to a local firehouse. And I don’t mean Firehouse Subs, because all you get there is a digestive disorder. (Netflix) Look Both Ways — Sliding Doors as a romcom? A young woman who’s about to graduate from college straddles her parallel potential futures as a single mom and (alter nately) a child-free careerist. The implication that she has a choice in the matter means the show qualifies as science fiction in 26 states. (Netflix) Royalteen — Norwegian YA literature yields a romance series in which a girl’s pursuit of a literal handsome prince is threatened by a dark secret in her past. Namely, that she was kind of OK with it when the Maelstrom ride was replaced with Frozen Ever After. (Netflix)

ON (small) SCREENS IN ORLANDO Streaming premieres you won’t want to miss by Steve Schneider

orlandoweekly.com ● AUG. 17-23, 2022 ● ORLANDO WEEKLY 25

PREMIERES SATURDAY: Fullmetal Alchemist: The Revenge of Scar — The second live-action feature in the manga-based franchise pits the Elric brothers against a serial killer with a distinguishing scar on his forehead. But we all knew Harry Potter was going to snap if he got asked about J.K. Rowling one more time. (Netflix)

PREMIERES THURSDAY: Dragons: The Nine Realms — Navigating the dangerous new Fire Realm portends all kinds of jeopardy in Season 3, but there’s also a serious threat to the continued viability of the Crystal Realm. And here you thought meth was never going out of style. (Peacock and Hulu) Glorious — When he dips into a public restroom to try to recover from a hangover, a luckless young guy finds himself trapped in his stall, with the ominous voice of J.K. Simmons speaking to him through a glory hole. Listen, he should count his blessings. Six months ago, it could have been Gilbert Gottfried. (Shudder) He-Man and the Masters of the Universe — Not to be confused with Kevin Smith’s con troversial Masters of the Universe: Revelation, this more traditionally adventuresome take on the He-Man legend enters Season 3 with Skeletor’s ghost conscripting an army of snake men to take down Eternia. For his part, Smith will be back with Masters of the Universe: Revolution, meaning you still might have your chance to see the Sword of Power transformed into a giant bong. (Netflix)

PREMIERES TUESDAY: Chad and JT Go Deep — The socially aware pranksters/podcasters try to stay “stoke” as they take their activism to the streets, only to face a backlash when they pick the wrong cause to champion. Gee, you mean the pursuit of public respectability is ultimately a circular firing squad? Good thing I picked crossfit as a hobby instead. (Netflix) So Vam — Trans teen Alice Maio Mackay directed this satirical shocker about a wan nabe drag queen who falls in with a pack of vampires to prey on bigoted mortals. Listen, not only do I have nothing bad to say about this as the premise for a movie, I’m pretty much ready to endorse it as a way of life. (Shudder) Untold: The Rise and Fall of AND1 —This week’s episode traces the rise and fall of the sneaker company that made stars out of a cadre of scrappy streetballers, including The Professor, Hot Sauce, Shane the Dribbling Machine and Andre Who Wishes He Had Gotten His MBA Instead. (Netflix) [ film + tv ]

Selena + Chef Season 4 — After three seasons of cooking out of her own home, Selena Gomez moves to a Malibu beach house for the next installment of her culinary series. Given that Emmy snub she just suffered for Only Murders in the Building, you should probably take a good whiff of whatever she’s whipped up before you bite into it. (HBO Max) Tekken: Bloodline — The ’90s video-game juggernaut is reborn as an anime series in which driven martial artist Jin Kazama trains to compete in the King of Iron Fist tourna ment. I’m pretty sure I saw that at Southern Nights, and if I’m remembering correctly, they’re going to need to put a tarp down. (Netflix) The Undeclared War — A production partnership with the U.K.’s Channel 4 brings us this cyber-suspense series set in 2024, when online skullduggery by foreign actors threatens to undermine an upcoming elec tion. That only qualifies as a cautionary tale in Britain, where they might still be having actual elections by 2024. (Peacock) PREMIERES FRIDAY: Bad Sisters — The comedy is predictably black as five Irish siblings try to ward off suspicions they may have killed the oldest one’s abusive husband. Suspicions? As far as I understand it, in Ireland that sort of thing is practically an Olympic qualifier. (Apple TV+) The Cuphead Show — Part 2 of the ani mated throwback is dropping just as online wokescolds have discovered that the Disney/Fleischer tropes on which it relies were actually kinda racist. Can’t put anything over on these people! But just wait until they figure out the colonialist implications of India ink. (Netflix) Echoes — Fooling your family is all fun and games until isn’t. And that’s what Australian identical twins discover when their years of swapping identities culminate in one of them going missing. Great, now I’ll never be able to watch The Parent Trap without think ing of Natalee Holloway. (Netflix) The Girl in the Mirror — A bus crash kills a whole bunch of Spanish students, and leaves one of the survivors with both amnesia and the sinking feeling that her loved ones are lying to her about what happened. If you noticed that sounds almost identical to Apple TV’s Surface, which bowed a mere three weeks ago, you clearly don’t take the bus. (Netflix) Kleo — This period-piece crime series about a female assassin seeking revenge after the fall of the Berlin Wall has been described as a German take on Quentin Tarantino. Oh boy! As thinly veiled warnings go, that’s right up there with “Kissimmee’s answer to Chuck Palahniuk.” (Netflix) Making the Cut — The guest judges joining Tim and Heidi for Season 3 are R&B duo Chloe x Halle, stylist Jason Bolden and TikTok fashion plate Wisdom Kaye. If we’re going to do influencers, can’t we have that Chihuahua who owns lots of sweaters? (Amazon Prime) The Next 365 Days — In the third entry in Poland’s universally panned take on the Fifty Shades franchise, Laura and Massimo try to preserve their relationship and not let Nacho come between them. This time I think I’m with the Poles: I mean, hands up if nachos have never ruined one of your relationships. (Netflix) Orphan: First Kill — The adult psycho path who can pass for a preteen comes to America in a prequel to 2009’s Orphan, debuting simultaneously on streaming and in theaters. And maybe in ball pits, so watch the fuck out! (Paramount+) Surfside Girls — The graphic novels by Kim Dwinell come to life, with their overstuffed narratives intact: Besties Jade and Sam find themselves befriending a ghost and trying to solve a pirate mystery — when they aren’t engaging in more typical pursuits, like surf ing or sublimating their true desires into heteronormativity. Sorry, I meant “meeting cute guys.” (Apple TV+) Todo por Lucy — The streaming medium’s obsession with Lucille Ball becomes a full-on epidemic with a Spanish-language update of her groundbreaking sitcom. In one modern twist, the show’s take on Fred and Ethel is a pair of gay men. Now the onus is on every drag queen in Tijuana to work up a spotless impression of Vivian Vance. (Amazon Prime)

The Innocents — Norwegian writer-director Eskil Vogt’s supernatural thriller about a quartet of preteens with fearsome pow ers has been compared to everything from Children of the Damned to Lord of the Flies to The Turn of the Screw. But not, strangely, to The Goonies, which is pretty much my go-to for kids you’d like to take out with a rock. (Shudder) She Hulk: Attorney at Law — Orlando acting legend Peg O’Keef is one of the surprise guest stars as Marvel’s wacky green-skinned heroine Jennifer Walters gets her own series. Oh, and Mark Ruffalo, Tim Roth and Benedict Wong are in it too. If you happen to like also-rans. (Disney+)

LOCAL RELEASES On their recently released sophomore record, Orlando band Fabulous Weapon — the duo of notable underground figures Juno White and Alien Witch’s Dee Dee Crittenden — have already sharpened their knives con siderably. While still retaining their raw art-rock allure, the Highway Killerz EP finds them significantly more crystallized in sound andOnconcept.it,the two members play lawless lov ers like a punk Bonnie and Clyde, and the five songs here constitute a Natural Born Killers-esque story arc that traces their rise and fall. Musically, this sinewy record rum bles with more hunger and purpose like a stalking jaguar. All together, it’s a dark and pulpy misadventure that keeps it stylish and close to the bone. The Highway Killerz EP is available on Bandcamp as a name-your-price download.Earlythis year, Orlando’s Snotnoze Saleem landed strong on the scene with Type Shit, his very fresh full-length debut as a rapper-producer. Now, he’s already returned with a quick follow-up in new album Intifada While it fires out the gate with the same manic energy as his maiden voyage, it quickly becomes clear that his left-field rap’s got some new game. Over its 13 tracks, Intifada trades in much of the lo-fi frenzy of Saleem’s debut for a remarkably more honed sound. Besides the more sonorous and substantial production, his music and delivery are on a new level of penetration thanks to some wiser framing andNonepacing.ofthis means that Saleem’s lost his raw, manic thrill. His raps are still hyper, and his sonic tapestry remains impressively freaky. It’s all just distilled and channeled to hit more like a missile than a bomb. The track “Herpes Simplex,” for example, is a laserfocused, serious-as-fuck roll that is pure, dark swag.While Type Shit was an auspicious debut, Intifada is a quantum leap. Given such an evolution in such a short time, Snotnoze Saleem is already shaping up to be a darkhorse contender coming in hard from the outside lane. Intifada is up on major stream ing platforms now, but it’s also available as both a name-your-price download and superlimited edition cassette on Illuminated Paths’ Bandcamp page.

Crowbar, Spirit Adrift, Fond, Bunaand: Brace yourselves for the return of Crowbar because these pioneering New Orleans sludge hulks are coming here on their first album in over five years, and it’s a beast of doom. Top to bottom, this is a pow erhouse bill between the touring and native bands alike. Austin tourmates Spirit Adrift will ride in like a charging cavalry with their victory metal. Orlando’s Fond will rumble your guts raw with their dire noise rock. And the show will also be a peek at new local band Bunaand. All told, it’s gonna get heavy.

Indie-pop band Snail Mail make good on a promise to return to Orlando BY MAISIE HANEY I grew into adulthood with Snail Mail, blasting their early releases over the sound system of the record store I worked at, always eager to hear their latest angst-ridden guitar balladry. Singer and lead Snail Lindsay Jordan’s vocals cut through the garage twangs in an honest and bold way; the early mini-album Habit and debut album Lush from 2018 both struck a chord with me — and more than a few other young listeners at that time. It’s somewhat unusual and noteworthy that members of Snail Mail were right about that same age as I was then. When Rolling Stone and Pitchfork took notice of the group, singer and guitarist Jordan was just 19. And now, years later, I have new Snail Mail sounds to explore in a new stage of my life, and this time they boast a mature pop sound that mirrors the chiseled indietronica transformations of forebears like Metric and Silversun Pickups.SnailMail were meant to play in Orlando back in late 2021, but that show — and the entire “Valentine” tour — was canceled. Jordan revealed that she had to undergo emer gency vocal cord surgery to remove several polyps. This surgery resulted in a humorously puberty-esque change in Jordan’s voice, necessitating adjustments to the vocal range of older songs rife with angsty cries at a higher pitch. Despite all of these changes — all during the aftermath of a global pandemic — Jordan grew accustomed to singing again, delivering the emotion of earlier songs in a new way by following her instincts. Snail Mail are currently on their rescheduled headlining tour (Orlando date thankfully intact) with L.A.’s mathy altrockers Momma and Minneapolis shoegazey outfit Hotline TNT, whom you might remember from the Ceremony show at Henao earlier this month — or as a last-minute headliner at Stardust Video in November 2021. And postsurgery, the City Beautiful has gone from Snail Mail famine to feast with another show looming, sup porting Turnstile in October. In an interview late last year with the website Vulture, Jordan explained yet maintained the veil of mystery behind songs that are everything you ever wanted to scream from the teen under belly of your evolved personality and acknowledged higher self — just written by a classical music student and Paramore fanatic. It’s pretty much what you’d assume any great song writer would say: When the pieces come together just right, she can feel intuitively that the song is in its final form. For Jordan, having more creative control over the songs as a producer on Valentine is a firm foot down in terms of keep ing that artistic instinct intact: “I don’t trust anybody else to have the same instincts,” said Jordan. Some songs came easier than others, and this speaks to the parade of new genres explored on the album. Valentine’s “Headlock” and “Light Blue” carry melodic nods to earlier work, particularly from 2018’s Lush. In “Mia,” Jordan sings, “I gotta grow up now, I can’t keep holding on to you anymore, Mia I’m still yours.”

Do these lyrics at all relate to Jordan’s current view of her past songs? Snail Mail’s oldies completely capture her teen years, and Jordan (and thus Snail Mail as a whole) grew over time, as a person and an artist. Funny, too, how Jordan wrote the kind of optimistic and dramatic lyrics that she later deemed childish things ready to be put away. The synths in Valentine’s poppier numbers echo the influence of Bon Iver albums like i,i and 22, A Million. (Coincidentally, Valentine co-producer Brad Cook produced these Bon Iver records.) Jordan’s vocals on Valentine are a bit more fine-tuned, reminiscent of Emily Haines’ vocals on newer Metric albums. We’re getting less of the raw juvenile anguish and more polished, though still left-field, pop. “I went from being a teenage indie rocker to a youngadult indie rocker,” said Jordan to Vulture, attempting to sum up growing up as an artist in public, “and that’s kind of weird.” Get weird — and wistful — with Jordan and a few of her musical friends on Tuesday. music@orlandoweekly.com

Maxwell Enigmatic R&B innovator Maxwell is bringing “The Night Tour” to Orlando, and it’s sure to make an already sweaty summer a few degrees hotter. The tour finds Maxwell spotlighting songs from upcoming album Blacksummers’NIGHT, the final installment in an ambitious trilogy that includes BLACKsummers’night (2009) and blackSUMMERS’night (2016). The concert is also an anniversary celebration for local radio station Star 94.5, celebrating 25 years on the FM airwaves. Speaking of anniversaries, the triple-threat singer/ producer/multi-instrumentalist recently marked the 26th anniversary of debut album Maxwell’s Urban Hang Suite. This is the record that made his name as an originator of “neo-soul” — a heady revamp of and homage to classic soul through moreish production — alongside trailblazers like D’Angelo and Erykah Badu. Since that first rush of fame, Maxwell dedicated himself squarely to following his own muse. And like his bespoke threads, it suits him well. 8 p.m., Amway Center, 400 W. Church St., amwaycenter.com, $25$400. — Matthew Moyer Teyana Taylor Decisions, decisions … it’s going to be damn tough to decide between the Maxwell show and this one. R&B chanteuse and dance choreographer Taylor is taking one last musical bow with her “Last Rose Petal 2 … Farewell Tour” rolling into the House of Blues. Taylor says she’s taking time off to focus on her personal life — and the recent arrest of husband Iman Shumpert is a poignant underlining of that assertion — issuing the cryptic statement, “Sometimes we gotta take the time to smell our roses even after the last petal falls.” Despite this maudlin context, early reviews emphasize that Taylor is hitting it out of the ballpark at these shows, pushing her choreography to the limits and nailing hits like “How You Want It,” “Wake Up Love” and “Rose In Harlem.” One thing’s for sure, she’s going out on her own terms at full creative strength. 7 p.m., House of Blues, Disney Springs, houseofblues.com, $39.50-$67.25. — MM FRIDAY-SUNDAY, AUG. 19-21 Anthology

FRIDAY, AUG. 19

Local cultural scene-makers Creative City Project debut a new event this weekend — Anthology — that shifts the focus somewhat from visually immersive to spirits-aided “theater of the mind.” The evening features four area writers affiliated with Orlando imprint Burrow Press reading their works, paired with live jazz from the Will Adrian Trio. Speaking of pairing, bartenders on site will be whipping up four custom cocktails for tasting that will each be loosely linked to one of the four authors. Reading this weekend are Central Floridians Brianna Johnson, Shane Hinton, Melanie Farmer and a mystery writer TBA. Putting Creative City Project into the Renaissance Theatre space — a place also, coincidentally, known for immersive productions — should make for a very aesthetically satisfying and heady evening.

WEEK

WEDNESDAY–TUESDAY, AUG. 17-23, 2022

The Lumineers Folk-rock icons the Lumineers are no strangers to Florida, but their only in-state show this year will be at the Amway Center on Tuesday night. Their first three albums hit either No. 1 or 2 on the Billboard charts, going multiplatinum in multiple countries. Their fourth, Brightside, was released last September. They’ve sold nearly 10 million albums, and their songs have been streamed over 3 billion times, led by “Ho Hey,” which also has about 300 million views on YouTube. Few groups have more effectively fused an old-style sensibility with a modernist appeal, and this show offers a rare chance to check that style up close. And yes, the cell-phone ban will be in effect. Just deal with it. 7:30 p.m., Amway Center, 400 W. Church St., amwaycenter.com, $36-$299.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): “I’ve swung from ancient vines in the caves of Jamaica,” exults Hoodoo priestess Luisah Teish. “I’ve danced with delight around totem poles and pressed foreheads with Maori warriors. I’ve joked with the pale fox in the crossroads, then wrestled with the jaguar and won. I have embraced great trees between my thighs and spoken words of love to thunder while riding lightning bolts.” I offer Teish’s celebratory brag to inspire you as you formulate plans for the coming weeks and months. What exhilarating adventures will you give yourself? What expansive encounters will you learn from? What travels outside of your comfort zone will you dare? The time is right for upsurges and upturns and upgrades.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): “Unless we are creators, we are not fully alive,” wrote Sagittarian author Madeleine L’Engle. She was referring to everyone, not just people in the arts. She believed that to be soulful humans, we must always make new things, generate fresh possibilities and explore novel approaches. The restless urge to transform what already exists can be expressed in how we do our jobs, our parenting, our intimate relationships and every other activity. You are now entering a phase, Sagittarius, when this initiatory energy will be especially available, needed and valuable.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): In his poem “The Pupil,” Virgo-born Donald Justice speaks of how he spent “a whole week practicing for that moment on the threshold.” I advise you to do the same, Virgo. The goal is to be as prepared as you can be for the upcoming rite of transition — without, of course, being neurotically over-prepared. It’s fine and natural to honor the tension of anticipation, using it as motivation to do your best. One other thing: As you get ready, please have as much fun as possible. Visualize the sense of accomplishment you’ll feel when you’ve reached the other side of the test.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Be extra expressive with the people and animals you care about. Be even more amusing and generous than usual. Dare to be abundantly entertaining and engaging and empathetic. Make it your goal to draw out your allies’ dormant potentials and inspire them to love themselves even more than they already do. I’ll tell you about the endearing terms that author Vladimir Nabokov called his wife. Consider using them with your dear ones: “My sun, my soul, my song, my bird, my pink sky, my sunny rainbow, my little music, my inexpressible delight, my tenderness, my lightness, my dear life, my dear eyes, kittykin, poochums, goosikins, sparrowling, bird of paradise.”

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Sometimes, you may feel you’re under the influence of a debilitating spell or hindered by a murky curse. Pisceans are prone to such worries. But here’s a secret. More than any other zodiac sign, you have the power to escape from spells. Even if you have never studied the occult or read a witch’s grimoire, you possess a natural facility for the natural magic that disperses curses. From the depths of your psyche, you can summon the spiritual force necessary to cleanse the gunk and free yourself. Now is a perfect time to prove to yourself that what I’ve said here is true.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): In her poem “Valentine,” Capricorn poet Carol Ann Duffy tells a lover she won’t give her a “red rose or a satin heart.” Instead, her token of affection is an onion, a symbol of multi-layered complexity. “Its fierce kiss will stay on your lips,” Duffy writes, “possessive and faithful as we are, for as long as we are.” She adds that the onion will “blind you with tears like a lover.” OK. I understand the tough attitude expressed by Duffy. Romance isn’t a relentlessly sweet, sentimental romp through paradise. But I don’t recommend that you imitate her approach to your love life in the coming weeks and months. Appreciate the sometimes shadowy and labyrinthine convolutions, yes, but don’t make them more important than beauty and joy and love. How about invoking the symbol of a pomegranate? It represents fertility and rebirth out of the darkness.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Aries filmmaker Andrei Tarkovsky wrote, “All my life, I’ve been going around waiting for something — as if I were waiting in a railway station. And I’ve always felt as if the living I’ve done so far hasn’t actually been real life but a long wait for it — a long wait for something real.” If I could speak with Tarkovsky right now, I would cheerfully tell him that his wait will soon be over. I’d say that in the coming months, Aries people who have been postponing and postponing, who have been standing by and holding on and biding time, will have an excellent chance to begin inhabiting their full, rich destiny. I invite you to imagine what that will feel like.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Taurus poet Sherko Bekas wrote, “Each joy I wear, its sleeves are either too short or too long, too loose or too tight on me. And each sorrow I wear fits as if it were made for me wherever I am.” With this as our starting point, Taurus, I’m pleased to report some good news. In the next three weeks, you will have zero sorrows to try on and wear like a garment. And there will be at least three joys that fit just right. The sleeves will be the correct length, and the form will be neither too loose nor too tight. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Here are some tips on how to get the most out of the coming weeks. No. 1: Create a big spacious realization by weaving together several small hunches. No. 2: Keep a little angel on your right shoulder and a little devil on your left shoulder. Enjoy listening to them argue, and don’t get attached to anything they say. No. 3: Do the unexpected until it becomes expected. Then abandon it and try a new, unexpected experiment. No. 4: Meditate expansively on the question, “How many careers can I have in one lifetime?” No. 5: Enhance your home so it feels even more comfortable.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): “One is always at home in one’s past,” wrote author Vladimir Nabokov. But I encourage you to rebel against that theory, Libra. For now, find a way to NOT feel at home in your past. Question it, be curious about it, re-evaluate it. My hope is that you will then be motivated to change how your history lives in you. Now is an excellent time to reconfigure your life story, to develop a revised relationship with its plot twists and evolution. Revisit and update some of your memories. Re-evaluate the meanings of key events. Enchanting healings will materialize if you do.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Of all the signs in the zodiac, you Scorpios are most likely to regard that old pop tune by the Animals as your theme song. “I’m just a soul whose intentions are good,” croons lead singer Eric Burdon, “Oh, Lord, please don’t let me be misunderstood.” But you may have less motivation to express that sentiment in the coming weeks, dear Scorpio. I suspect you will experience record-breaking levels of being seen and appreciated for who you are. For best results, do this: First, inform your deep psyche that you have no attachment to being misunderstood; then, tell your deep psyche that you would very much like to be well understood.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Be fluid and flexible while still being rooted and sturdy. Be soft and sensitive even as you are also firm and resolute. Be mostly modest and adaptable, but become assertive and outspoken as necessary. Be cautious about inviting and seeking out challenges, but be bold and brash when a golden challenge arrives. Be your naturally generous self most of the time, but avoid giving too much. Got all that, Cancerian? Carrying out the multifaceted assignments I just described might be nearly impossible for most of the other signs of the zodiac, but they are in your wheelhouse. You are a specialist in fertile complexity.

“Because most people experiment with choking without any obvious negative repercussions, they often think they’re doing it ‘safely,’ and that may not be the case,” Herbenick says. “And because people sometimes engage in choking frequently, there may be cumulative effects on the brain — in other words, negative effects that build up over time rather than from a single incident of being choked. Cumulative incidents are difficult to notice as they’re happen ing. However, even mild pressure on the neck/throat is likely to reduce oxygen to the brain because it involves compressing blood vessels. The kinds of cumulative effects that may occur include greater likelihood of depression, anxiety, ringing in the ears, headaches and memory issues, among others, though we need more research to say for sure.”

Q: I have a question about choking. Or should that be simulated choking? I’ve recently discovered that being pinned down by my neck is a huge turn-on for me. I love the feeling of being dominated and controlled, and of feeling my partner’s strength on this part of my body. I’m much more inter ested in this feeling than in actual breath control or oxygen deprivation. I’ve been reading up on choking because I’m trying to make sure I can be manhandled in the way I like as safely as possible. However, all the advice about choking is about how dangerous it is. But most of the advice concentrates on the dangers of restricting oxygen (which is not what I am going for) or on damaging the windpipe by putting pressure on the front of the throat (which my partners avoid). So, my question is … how dangerous is this kind of simulated choking play really? Play where one person is being held down by their throat with only mild pressure? What can we do to make it as safe as possible? I’m having a hard time finding good answers, and given how wet this makes my pussy, abstaining from this activity is not an option for me. Please I Need More Expertise A: “Choking and other forms of breath play used to be very uncommon,” says Dr. Debby Herbenick. “But over the past decade, choking has become extremely common, especially among people underHerbenick40.”

DRAWN BY KIERAN CASTAÑO

So, is there a safe way to create the sensation of being choked without the risk? “Some people who are into choking but who don’t want to take on these risks ask their partner to lightly press against their collarbone but not their throat,” Herbenick says. “And PINME is correct that any pressure to the front of the throat is particularly risky, given how vulnerable the windpipe is to injury. Other people decide to ask their partner to choke them anyway but only rarely, to reduce the likeli hood of cumulative risk.” Obviously, consent to a sex practice as risky as choking is only meaningful if everyone involved is fully informed of the risks. Someone who asks to be choked — a person like you, PINME, who requests to be choked during sex — has a duty to fully inform their partner of the risks they’ll be running. “It’s not fair to put someone in the position of doing something that could accidentally hurt or kill you, and making them potentially criminally or legally responsible, without their full understand ing of the risks they’re taking,” Herbenick says. “All that said, adults can consent and opt into all sorts of risky things — flogging, barebacking, sex with strangers, unprotected vaginal intercourse after forgetting a week’s worth of birth control pills, skydiving, rock climbing and various watersports. Whatever risky activity we enjoy — whether it involves sex or not — we need to learn about poten tial risks, think through potential harm reduction strategies and proceed with caution.” Go to Savage.Love to read the rest of Dan’s answer, and if you have a question of your own, write to Dan at questions@savagelove.net

is a professor at Indiana University School of Public Health, a prolific and widely published sex researcher, and the author of many books, including The Coregasm Workout: The Revolutionary Method for Better Sex Through Exercise. A few years ago, Herbenick’s students began asking her about choking. Some shared harrowing stories of being choked by sex partners without their consent. There was very little data out there about choking, which was all over porn sites, and that inspired Herbenick and some colleagues to undertake the first serious and scientifically rigor ous studies of sexual choking. Disturbingly, Herbenick found that a lot of peo ple — mostly male people — were choking their partners during sex without discussing it first. Meaning, they weren’t establishing mutual interest, they weren’t obtaining unambiguously enthusiastic consent, and they weren’t discussing the inherent risks and how to minimize them. (Minimize ≠ elimi nate.) Many weren’t even cognizant of the risks, which makes sense given the dearth of research on choking (and, again, why Herbenick has been researching this now-mainstream practice). “The reason that so many sites say choking is dangerous is because it is dangerous,” Herbenick says. “That’s not a scare tactic. Although rare, peo ple do occasionally die from being choked, which is technically a form of strangulation, and people have gone to jail for accidentally injuring or killing a partner during consensual choking.”

Most people who’ve experimented with choking describe the act as “consensual, wanted and plea surable,” according to Herbenick’s research. Which raises another concern: the false sense of security many have about it.
