» Can’t make it to the polls in person? Make sure you resubmit your vote-by-mail request

Due to a newish law signed by Florida Gov. DeSantis — using the fig leaf of election fraud, though none was found in Florida — all requests for mail-in ballots made before the 2022 election have been canceled. So if you’re looking to vote by mail in the 2024 elections (or 2023 municipal elections, where applicable), you’re going to have to request a new vote-bymail ballot, and you should probably get on it soon. Under the new law, Florida voters have to turn in new vote-by-mail requests after each midterm and presidential election. So, you’ll need to re-enroll with your county’s Supervisor of Elections for this next election cycle. If you live in Orange County, that’s the Orange County SOE. If you live in Osceola, that’s the Osceola County SOE. And so on. You can resubmit that request online, in person, by mail, by fax or by calling your SOE office to make that request. The voting-rights group Common Cause Florida also strongly suggests that even if you have submitted a request over the past year or so, now might be a good time to double-check the status of your request. — RN, MM

» Florida leaders

pledge to ‘fight like hell’ against decision to block Black history class

Black religious leaders and elected officials in Florida have pledged to “fight like hell” against a recent decision by the DeSantis administration to block an Advanced Placement elective course on Black history from being taught in Florida’s public schools. That decision has gotten national media coverage, and even received criticism from the President. What DeSantis had to say: “We believe in teaching kids facts and how to think, but we don’t believe they should have an agenda imposed on them. When you try to use Black history to shoehorn in queer theory, you are clearly trying to use that for political purposes.” (His mention of “queer theory” refers to the course’s contention that multiple issues intersect, i.e., “intersectionality.”)

He also reportedly said that the course “lacks educational value.” The state Department of Education last week published a list of “concerns found within” the course, focusing on five topics: “intersectionality [which the DOE links to Critical Race Theory] and activism,” “Black queer studies,” “movements for Black lives,” “the reparations movement” and “Black study and Black struggle in the 21st century.” The NAACP said in a statement last week that they’re “outraged” by the department’s “‘whitesplaining’ of Black history and culture.” A coalition of Black religious and community leaders gathered in Tallahassee to announce a Feb. 16 rally that will include national civil rights and faith leaders. — NSF

» Orange County adopts tenant’s bill of rights to enhance protections for local renters

The rent is still too damn high, but Orange County renters can expect at least a few more protections from predatory landlords, thanks to a new “Tenant’s Bill of Rights” ordinance (a local law) officially approved by Orange County commissioners last week. What does it do? Among other things, the local law — effective March 1 — gives the right to a 60-day notice of lease termination and rent increases above 5%; the right to reasonable notice prior to a landlord’s entry; the right to maintenance of the rental unit in line with building, housing and health codes; and requires landlords to provide tenants with a list of their rights prior to move-in. Plus, as Orlando Weekly previously reported, the ordinance prohibits landlords from discriminating against tenants who receive housing assistance (e.g. use a housing voucher). Landlords don’t have to accept you, but they can’t explicitly refuse you based on where your rent money comes from (provided it’s a lawful source of income). At the same time this ordinance was approved, the board of county commissioners and Mayor Jerry Demings also gave the go-ahead for a new Office of Tenant Services to enforce the new law, and to offer other support services for Orange County renters and landlords alike. — MS

» Florida GOP rolls out new housing legislation that’d completely ban rent control

And in what honestly seems like a pointed dig at Orange County, Florida Senate President Kathleen Passidomo (R-Naples) rolled out a sweeping workforce housing bill last week (ahead of the upcoming 2023 legislative session) that would, among other things, ban local governments from imposing rent control, place limits on local zoning laws, and establish

more tax breaks for private developers. Supporters (including the Florida Realtors group, which sued Orange County last year to block rent control from taking effect) say the $811 million proposal, dubbed the “Live Local Act,” would create more housing opportunities that allow workers to live near where they work. Critics say it would do nothing to provide direct relief to Florida renters who are financially burdened. State Rep. Anna Eskamani said in a statement that the bill “smacks Orange County voters right in the face by pre-empting what was a hard-fought measure to stabilize rents in our community through an emergency ordinance.” While rent control was/is already a pain in the butt to try and implement in Florida due to existing law, the new proposal would ban it completely, eliminating any sort of opening to cap rent increases to even a reasonable degree. — NSF

» City mulls over new rules and restrictions on downtown nightlife Orlando City Council last week voted unanimously on some big restrictions to nightlife in downtown Orlando, despite protest from local business owners and the Orlando Hospitality Alliance. The two ordinances proposed would impose a six-month moratorium on new nightclubs downtown, would require current bars and nightclubs operating downtown to get a permit to serve alcohol after midnight, and impose other security requirements. This is ostensibly to increase public safety downtown. But critics have expressed surprise and frustration over the speed of the whole process, and were skeptical that the new rules would make downtown more safe. The Orlando Hospitality Alliance, for its part, has contacted city leaders with alternative suggestions/amendments to the proposals to address public safety concerns (although some critics say they feel safer downtown even at night, compared to other parts of the City Beautiful). The coalition of hospitality business owners and operators has also requested a workshopstyle meeting with city leaders, to discuss the details of the ordinances. But nothing’s finalized just yet — city leaders will hold a second vote on the rule changes in five weeks’ time. — MM, MS

‘WHEN WE FIGHT, WE WIN’ Unite Here Local 737 prevails with historic contract for Orlando hospitality workers

Hospitality workers at the third-largest convention center in the country achieved major gains this week, setting a new standard for hospitality workers in the Central Florida region.

Restaurant, concessions and banquet workers at the Orange County Convention Center, who are directly employed by the multinational company Sodexo, won a new contract that delivers an $18 minimum wage for hourly food service workers this year and a $3 raise for workers above the minimum, retroactive to August 2022.

It’s the highest minimum wage set for hospitality workers in Central Florida, per the workers’ union, Unite Here Local 737.

“We have won a new standard for hospitality workers in Central Florida,” Angie McKinnon, the chief negotiator and financial secretary treasurer for Unite Here Local 737, said of the tentative agreement on Wednesday.

Previously, the minimum wage for Sodexo workers was just $13 an hour, far below the estimated living wage for single working adults in Central Florida, let alone working families with children or other dependents to feed, shelter and care for.

The pay raises offered in the contract, described as “lifechanging” by McKinnon, rise above the standard set by Disney World in 2018, back when a coalition of unions there

won a $15 minimum wage for thousands of low-wage Disney workers. That fully took effect in 2021 and prompted other major tourism employers such as Universal and SeaWorld to also increase employee pay.

The sentiment among convention center workers who fought for the new contract at the convention center was crystal clear. According to the union, workers unanimously approved the three-year agreement with Sodexo, with zero “no” votes.

Altogether, it delivers a $5.50 per hour raise for nontipped Sodexo workers by August 2024, with another raise the year after, and — in what the union describes as a “history-making” achievement — a pension for full-time workers that’s fully funded by their employer.

“This is a large victory,” McKinnon, who has decades of service as a worker at Disney under her belt, emphasized. “Many of these workers have been in the building for 10 to 30 years with no pension until today. Every worker should be able to support themselves after they retire.”

The union had been negotiating a new contract with Sodexo, a global food and beverage services provider, since last August. But, over the course of several months, the union failed to come to a satisfying agreement with the company.

Jeremy Haicken, president of the Local 737, told a radio station in Tampa in November that Sodexo, a company that’s

had a testy relationship with labor unions in the U.S. and overseas, had shunned their economics proposal, which from the start had included an $18 minimum wage within the first year of the contract and a fully funded pension.

Not only that, but the union said Sodexo had also failed to come up with a counter-offer of their own.

So, in November, workers increased the stakes: 235 Sodexo workers at the convention center voted unanimously to authorize a strike upon the expiration of their contract in December, as union workers at other convention centers across the country also considered their own escalations.

“My co-workers and I are ready to do what it takes to win the contract we need,” Jackeline Ponce, a retail worker of nine years’ standing at the Orange County Convention Center, said on a press call first announcing the strike authorization vote last year.

Ponce, a member of the union’s bargaining committee, will now make $17 an hour under the contract, up from $13.60. That’s an immediate raise that’ll increase to just over $18 in August, and rise another dollar next year.

“We fought very hard for almost six months, but we had a victory,” Ponce said this week.

That victory, and the everyday work on the job, evidently required the devotion of significant time and energy. But still, there was nothing but excitement and a deep sense of pride emanating from the group of convention center workers and union staff who gathered less than a mile away from the convention center on Wednesday, outside of an Orange County Fire Station, to share the news with Unite Here union members across the country (and yes, press, too).

Local 737, based in Orlando, represents about 800 to 900 restaurant, concessions and banquet workers at the Orange County Convention Center (and 19,000 other tourism workers in Central Florida) who are directly employed by Sodexo. Sodexo, a multinational based in France, contracts foodservice work out to various entities: cafeterias at universities and colleges, government agencies, hospitals, K-12 schools, employee cafeterias for massive companies like Google and more.

Locally, Sodexo contracts food-service work at locations including the Orlando International Airport, HCA Florida Poinciana Hospital, the Osceola Regional Medical Center, Rollins College and Disney World, where Sodexo workers are represented by Unite Here Local 362.

Sodexo is the nation’s largest federal food service contractor, serving 45.6 million meals annually to more than 160 military and U.S. federal government locations in 28 states. They’ve had a complicated relationship with unions like Unite Here and the Service Employees International Union, which Sodexo actually sued in 2011.

Sodexo has historically rebuffed allegations of anti-union behavior, often pointing to the hundreds of collective bargaining agreements it has with unions across the United States (including with many Unite Here locals).

Paul Pettas, a spokesperson for Sodexo, said in a statement to Orlando Weekly that its new contract with Local 737 was “the result of a collaborative negotiation and strong engagement from both parties,” adding, “We remain fully committed to helping secure long-term vitality for the individuals who have careers with us at the Orange County Convention Center and continuing to be economic catalysts for the greater Central Florida economy.”

At the Orange County Convention Center, workers put everything on the line, and were damn well ready to strike if Sodexo didn’t come back to them with a contract ASAP that could provide sufficient relief for the impact of rising inflation and cost of living increases. Orlando’s high cost

of living has caused many low-wage workers in the local tourism industry to skip meals, fall behind on rent or mortgage payments, and suffer family or relationship problems because of stress about money, according to a report released by the union last year.

Average rent for a one-bedroom in Orlando, for instance, grew nearly 30% from January 2020 to December 2022. And while some neighboring areas in Orange and Osceola counties can run cheaper, rent — let alone a home purchase — is out of reach for many of Central Florida’s working families.

So, the workers, who serve tens of thousands of people through massive events, conferences and conventions, organized.

“I think that in the beginning, they [Sodexo] thought that it was really a little bluff, [that] they could just push us over,” James Robinson, a lead cook at the convention center who’s also on the union’s bargaining committee, told Orlando Weekly about their strike threat.

But they didn’t back down. “We all stuck together and fought for it. I mean, we just weren’t gonna let the company bully us into what they want to give us,” said Robinson.

McKinnon, the union’s chief negotiator, said workers did all sorts of things to demonstrate solidarity with one another. “Any time you’ve got to stand up to the boss, it’s pretty scary, right?”

Workers wore three different pro-union buttons on the job, for instance — something that’s become a contentious issue in union campaigns at some Starbucks stores, despite federal labor law protecting the practice — with the Sodexo workers’ final button reading: “I don’t want to strike, but I will.”

That’s nothing to scoff at in a metro area where less than 5% of private sectors are covered by a union. Not to mention in a state in which Republican politicians (like our current governor) reliably propose legislation year after year to hack away at union rights and workers’ rights more broadly — with, for instance, legislation intended to pre-empt local governments from enforcing living wage ordinances.

Union membership nationwide has dropped to a historic low, despite over 273,000 workers joining unions in 2022, but it’s victories like this by workers in environments that are difficult to organize, difficult to secure major gains in, that inspire and set life-changing new standards across the board, even for workers in non-union workplaces.

Robinson, the lead cook, is 64 years old and has worked at the Orange County Convention Center for 16 years. While he has a stake in the fight, he doesn’t make minimum wage. Before this new contract, he made $31.63 an hour as a lead cook. And after working all his life, he’s on his way out, he says, in the next few years or so.

But he cares about what he’ll leave behind. He told Orlando Weekly he wasn’t as actively involved with Local 737 when Sodexo workers first voted to unionize in 2017, and negotiated a contract the following year. This time around, he made it his mission to be more involved.

“I wanted to, you know, be part of the team, and set the standard for other workers that are going to be coming in,” he said. “We all felt that we needed a raise because of, you know, gas prices, rent, inflation, period,” he said. “So I wanted to be part of that fight. And I wanted to leave some kind of legacy.”

Isabel Castro, a retail worker at the convention center who made $17.50 prior to the new contract, also has an intrinsic desire to fight against injustice when she sees it. She was drawn to the union — despite working multiple jobs and lacking much free time outside of work — to advocate for a life of dignity and respect for herself and her co-workers.

She lives in Kissimmee with her mom, an 80-year-old retiree, and her daughter, who works at Disney. “I love my job,” she told Orlando Weekly, and she is “always working.” When she first immigrated to the country from Peru, back in 1991, she worked for Disney. But today, she works full-time at the convention center and cleans houses on weekends, sometimes doing cleanings after work.

With the $3 raise in this new contract, she says, “Everything has changed now.” She hopes to spend more time with her family and to be able to stick to one job, instead of two or three.

On-call workers represented by the union, who make up most of the workers the union represents, also won the $3 raises in the new contract, in addition to free uniforms (before, workers had to pay for their own), and a better transportation system.

Before, in order to make it to work on time, workers would either have to pay for guest parking, park in a lot further away from the convention center (“which is not safe” when you’re getting off work late at night, McKinnon said) or sometimes get to work hours before the start of their shift to get free transportation over to the sprawling, 7-millionsquare-foot facility.

And those gains in the contract didn’t come easy. Their vote to authorize a strike in November wasn’t just for show. “We were not kidding around,” Francisco “Junior” Cadavid, a banquet worker on the union’s bargaining committee, said on Wednesday, holding his young son, Sebastian, tightly in his arms.

And Sodexo knew it. McKinnon said the company hired something like 400 temp workers after a rumor floated around that they’d be striking in early January. For months this strike threat loomed over Sodexo and the convention facility, which attracts more than 1.5 million attendees and provides roughly $3 billion in economic impact to Central Florida annually.

A spokesperson for the convention center told Orlando Weekly they would default to Sodexo for comment on the contract, and did not answer a question regarding what kind of impact a strike would have had on the facility’s operations, had that proceeded.

Hiring temp workers to cross the picket line in the event of a strike isn’t cheap. But in the end, Sodexo, which had previously drug its heels on bargaining with the union, capitulated to the union’s demands. The company agreed to both the raise for hourly workers and the pension for fulltime workers that the union had risked potentially going on strike for.

This comes as Disney World workers represented by the Service Trades Council Union, a coalition of labor unions that includes Local 737, continue their own fight for an $18 minimum wage. The Walt Disney Company, whose parks division made $28 billion in revenue last year, recently unveiled a “best offer” for workers that falls short, according to the unions, offering a path to a $20 minimum wage over the next five years.

The STCU, representing over 40,000 Disney workers, is recommending that cast members reject Disney’s best offer. Workers will be voting whether to approve the offer next week.

Sodexo workers at the Orange County Convention Center, for their part, are hopeful for what lies ahead, and proud of what they accomplished together — not just for themselves, but potentially for the industry as a whole, should other hospitality and service employers rise to meet the occasion, with or without their own strike threat.

“Dreams can come true,” Castro said to Orlando Weekly in Spanish, which she primarily speaks at home. “If you can come together to fight and not just do it on your own, but get together with other people, you create the strength to be able to fight for a good cause.” mschueler@orlandoweekly.com

UNQUALIFIED IMMUNITY

Incidents like the beating death of Tyre Nichols happen because cultures of unaccountability permeate police stations all over the country

Six years after the end of the Civil War, with the recalcitrant South still under the boot of Reconstruction, Congress passed the Civil Rights Act of 1871, designed to provide a mechanism to enforce the constitutional protections the 14th Amendment — ratified just three years earlier — provided to formerly enslaved African Americans.

Technically, the Civil Rights Act comprised the first section of the Ku Klux Klan Act, which, as the name suggests, targeted the white supremacist terrorist group. Perhaps because the Klan intermingled with the South’s white power structure, the bill’s language was expansive.

It read: “Every person who, under color of any statute, ordinance, regulation, custom, or usage, of any State or Territory or the District of Columbia, subjects, or causes to be subjected, any citizen of the United States or other person within the jurisdiction thereof to the deprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured by the Constitution and laws, shall be liable to

group of white and Negro clergymen” who were praying in the waiting room of a segregated bus terminal. The police said they were violating an anti-loitering statute that, four years later, the Supreme Court held was unconstitutional. The court reasoned that because police sued in Mississippi for making false arrests could claim that they acted in good faith and had probable cause, they should be afforded the same privilege in Section 1983 lawsuits.

The court said qualified immunity didn’t just cover the cops’ good faith that they had probable cause for the arrest, but their belief that the law they were enforcing was constitutional. The ruling made sense: How could cops be expected to know what the courts would rule unconstitutional later?

The court didn’t end there, however. Instead, it vastly expanded qualified immunity over the next two decades. In 1982, the court ruled that no longer did defendants have to “sincerely” believe they were acting legally to receive qualified immu-

Anyone who has covered cops or courts long enough has seen law enforcement seek qualified immunity for something similarly outrageous.

They do so before juries hear the facts of a case, and judges can award it without bothering to determine that the plaintiff’s rights were violated. They can (and often do) skip right to the “clearly established” bit, and nothing else matters. Which means that additional violations stop being “clearly established.”

And on the rare occasions when cops lose a qualified immunity argument at the summary judgment phase, they can appeal immediately, meaning that plaintiffs not only must win twice in court before even making their case to a jury, but that the best-case scenario is a long delay in seeking justice.

The result, as Justice Sonia Sotomayor put it in 2018: Qualified immunity has become “an absolute shield for law enforcement officers.”

I’m bringing this up, of course, in the context of the killing of Tyre Nichols by five members of the Memphis Police Department, a crime so brutal and caught so vividly on camera that the cops are — unlike God knows how many similar but unrecorded events in years past — facing murder charges.

As after the videotaped murder of George Floyd in 2020, Nichols’ murder has prompted another round of calls for police reform. And as after the murder of George Floyd and the protests that followed, few of them will amount to much.

the party injured in an action at law, suit in equity, or other proper proceeding for redress.”

In other words, if a government official deprives you of your rights, you can sue.

This act became Section 1983 of Title 42 of the U.S. Code. For the first 90 years of its existence, it was relatively rarely used. As the Civil Rights Movement grew, however, it became a more popular tool.

In the early 1960s, the Supreme Court ruled that local (but not state) governments could be sued for the acts of their employees if a violation of rights occurred under the “color of law.”

But then came 1967’s Pierson v. Ray decision, when, to shield racist Mississippi cops from the consequences of arresting civil rights protesters, the court invented qualified immunity.

In 1961, Mississippi cops arrested “a

nity. Rather, it would apply automatically whenever “their conduct does not violate clearly established statutory or constitutional rights of which a reasonable person would have known.”

The words “clearly established” do a lot of work there, especially in cases in which police are accused of violating someone’s civil rights. In short, that’s because lower courts usually require a prior ruling on a nearly identical set of facts from the same jurisdiction. This has led to several absurd outcomes.

In one, for instance, a Nashville cop who released his dog to attack a homeless man who was seated with his hands in the air was granted qualified immunity because the court ruled that in a previous case, the person who was unlawfully attacked by a police dog was lying on the ground, not sitting with his hands up.

In 2021, the Democratic House passed the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act, which, among other things, limited qualified immunity for bad cops. It failed in the Senate.

The Republicans who now control the House have already shrugged off doing anything. Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio told Meet the Press, “I don’t know that there’s any law that can stop that evil that we saw.”

Maybe. But incidents like what happened to Nichols and Floyd happen because cultures of unaccountability permeate police stations all over the country. And the longer outrages don’t get a response, the more that trust will erode between law enforcement and the communities they police.

Ending the made-up doctrine of qualified immunity is low-hanging fruit. It won’t stop every horrific act of police brutality, or even most of them. But in lieu of meaningful reforms to policing, it might at least offer cops’ victims an opportunity for compensation.

KNIGHT CLUB

Meet the Florida Fire Drakes, a team of modern athletes putting the ‘hurt’ in the medieval combat sport of buhurt

The sound of metal clashing violently echoes throughout the fighting grounds — referred to as a “list” — as six armor-clad men try to take each other down to the ground and win the skirmish.

Leading the men is Cory Alexander, viewing the battle and ready to step in and offer coaching — or to lead by example by demonstrating firsthand the techniques that he wants his squad of men and women to employ.

Though their armor and weapons are authentic, the scene described is not set in the Middle Ages. This modern-day team of athletes is practicing the sport of buhurt.

Derived from the French word “béhourd,” which translates to “wallop,” buhurt is a full-contact combat sport that sees its participants using blunted steel weapons and mixed martial arts techniques to fight each other while wearing authentic suits of armor.

Orlando Weekly had the chance to visit the training grounds for the Florida Fire Drakes, the premier buhurt team for the state of Florida, and interview the aforementioned Cory Alexander, the owner of the team, as well as some of the team members. Right away, Alexander made clear what the appeal of the sport is for him compared to other combat sports.

“It allows us to use a lot of disciplines of mixed martial arts and apply them in a unique way when we’re fighting,” Alexander said.

Blaine Boone, one of the lead instructors on the team, also shared what makes the sport so appealing to him: “I think many young men dream about being a knight at some point growing up. This gives me a chance to live that dream out in a way.”

Alexander has a deeply rooted passion for buhurt because the sport allows him to pursue two things that he is passionate about at the same time.

“I trained out of the American Combat Club, and I was very interested in a sport that could combine my love for mixed martial arts with my appreciation for medieval history,” Alexander said.

This appreciation helps him with some of the finer details, such as making sure the armor and weapons being used are within regulation.

While there are different styles and time periods to choose from when selecting what armor will be worn into battle, the style of weapon that a fighter chooses must be consistent with said armor — at least within 50 years of the period the armor is emulating.

That’s not to say that the armor and weapons are actually from these time periods, however. While they are made in the style of medieval armor, and are emulating the designs as much as possible, all of the armor and weapons that the Florida Fire Drakes use is hand-forged by modern blacksmiths. Acquiring and maintaining the equipment is but one of the unique challenges that Alexander deals with.

“All of the equipment is authentic, and both the logistics and cost of acquiring them, as well as maintaining them, are hurdles we face as we manage the team. However, one of the biggest challenges we face is showing people that this is a legitimate sport, and trying to address that stigma to get more and more people interested and involved in it,” Alexander said.

Despite these hardships, the benefits that the sport has had even in the day-to-day lives of the team members seems to make everything worth it.

“The community we’ve built here is really special. Our team has an inclusive culture that gives a home to many different kinds of people, which is truly great,” Alexander said.

Improving lives is another part of the passion Alexander has for the sport, and what drives his ambitions for the future of the team. Speaking of the future, Alexander shared the Fire Drakes’ next moves: “We’re fighting in Nashville, Tennessee, on January 14th and 15th at the AMCF national qualifier, and we’ll be competing for the chance to represent the United States national team fighting overseas in Spain. One of our goals is to earn the chance to compete internationally as well … we want to become the number one buhurt team in the world!”

GIRL ON FIRE

Shangela talks community, evolution and self-expression before her ‘Fully Lit’ tour reaches Orlando

Halleloo, Orlando! You have an audience with drag royalty this week.

Drag icon Shangela, known out of drag as D.J. Pierce, has a career chock-full of firsts. She was the first person to compete on three different seasons of RuPaul’s Drag Race, the first person to walk the red carpet in drag at the Oscars and the first person to compete in drag on the American version of Dancing With the Stars — and her Fully Lit headlining tour is yet another milestone to add to this list.

The Fully Lit dates are Shangela’s first go at touring as a solo headliner across the country, with an extravagant production that pulls out all the stops, visual and performance-wise.

“I’m really excited to be able to reconnect with my fans in this way. The Fully Lit tour is exactly what it sounds like. It’s full of highenergy performances, it is full of hilarious, never-before-told stories and also just a great night of fun,” Shangela told Orlando Weekly.

Fully Lit kicked off in Boston on Jan. 19 and is traveling across the United States at a very heated moment, in the wake of much ginned-up controversy and misinformation surrounding the drag scene fabricated by some Republicans and cultural conservatives.

“You know, there is a conservative lot that exists in and around the city of Orlando, and of course in the state of Florida, so returning now at a time where there’s so many pieces of legislation and activity that is targeted toward the LGBTQ+ community and the freedoms and the equality that we hope to exist within that space … I had never experienced that head-on in such a way that I did when we were filming We’re Here,” says Shangela.

We’re Here, the Emmy-nominated HBO show co-hosted by Shangela, Bob the Drag Queen and Eureka O’Hara, recently premiered its third season. The series focuses

on the queens traveling across small-town America. And the final two episodes of the third season were both set in Central Florida.

We’re Here took Shangela and her cohosts to the Villages and Kissimmee, where Shangela said she was shown another side of the Orlando area. These Florida-focused episodes allowed the queens to show viewers some of the realities LGBTQ+ Floridians face in the time of conservative legislation restricting gender-affirming healthcare and the “Don’t Say Gay” law.

“Experience it for yourself first, before you cast judgment. I would encourage each person who has a question about the drag community, before you judge any community, have an experience yourself,” says Shangela, “and allow that to help you build what your opinion or judgment is going to be.”

Out of drag, Shangela is involved with activist organizations including the Feed the Queens initiative, which provided over $100,000 in food grants to out-of-work drag entertainers in 2020.

Shangela says that she hopes her tour can help spread a message of unity and bring greater visibility and representation for her community.

“[We’re Here] allowed me to meet some beautiful people that are true warriors for equality, with regard to the LGBTQ+ community,” says Shangela.

“And now with this show, I’m definitely going to be bringing back that same message that I came with in We’re Here. And that is a message of love, that is a message of hope, that is a message of support and hopefully a message that helps to unite us as a community.”

Shangela is no stranger to the stage — a fact that’s become even more apparent after her recent stint as a finalist on Dancing With the Stars. Shangela said that her time on DWTS

was a definite career highlight, making her proud to be a part of history and represent her community to viewers across the country every Monday night on prime-time. She said that watching herself on the second season of Drag Race and comparing that to her performances on DWTS, she saw definite signs of growth and evolution.

“When I first started out in drag — not even Drag Race, but when I first started out in drag — I was just having fun. It was just about having this amazing creative outlet to enjoy and express myself and a way to do it on stage. When I became a part of Drag Race, it gave me an even greater purpose in drag that I never foresaw myself having, but I’m so grateful for,” explains Shangela.

Further, Shangela says she will never take

the chances that Drag Race has given her for granted. “I’m very grateful for this opportunity and I feel a sense of responsibility to always show up and do my absolute best, not only to represent my community but also to help to give us greater progress to move us forward,” she says.

Shangela says she admires the drag scene in Orlando and cannot wait to be back in the community of Orlando queens.

“I think right now, especially with the political climate that we’re under, that people deserve to have a night of fun and great entertainment of drag,” she says. “And I know that the Orlando scene has great drag and I’m excited to bring an even more fiery experience to add to it.”

resign his chairmanship of the Greater Orlando Performing Arts Relief fund that he helped found and deactivate his Facebook page.

Victory Production’s controversial collaboration with the Garden Theatre — an unusual arrangement in which the for-profit producers and nonprofit theater share the budgetary expenses and revenue — began last summer when Garden Theatre board vice-chair Keith Smith contacted Victory president Fernando Varela, who sang at the theater’s Encore gala a decade ago and served as an artist liaison for a year. In a phone interview, Varela says that before getting involved again, he met repeatedly with board members and “found that each and every single person on the board, at least the ones that I met with, they truly wanted to get it right. They wanted to make sure that the issues that led to what happened over the summer never happened again. And they were committed to creating art on that stage, and making sure that the Garden Theatre continues to operate, to be there, to thrive.”

Even so, CFEA has not advocated a boycott, and Emerson cautions against “shaming of artists who are caught in the crossfire of problematic leadership,” whose positions are unlikely to change until a voting majority of like-minded members join the board. “I think there’s a perception that we are just out here trying to burn down theaters. And that perception is far from true. Everyone should be able to create art in safe, equitable and inclusive spaces. That shouldn’t be a hard ask,” says Emerson. “But people have to be willing to come to the room, and realize that that room is gonna look different than what they may want it to. That’s the very definition of inclusion.”

If you’re connected via social media to Central Florida’s theater scene, your smartphone has surely been emitting smoke over recent incendiary commentary surrounding Winter Garden’s Garden Theatre.

This dramatic dumpster fire first ignited publicly last summer, when acclaimed artistic director Joseph C. Walsh abruptly resigned in June; the resulting wave of resignations and terminations saw the departures of nearly the entire staff and the cancellation of several shows.

Flames were fanned again in December when the Garden announced that, rather than rebuilding their internal team, they would turn to Victory Productions to present four shows in 2023, beginning last weekend with the 1980s jukebox musical Rock of Ages

What really poured kerosene on the conflagration was playwright Michael Wanzie’s widely shared “Wanziegram” of Jan. 19. The e-newsletter promoted Victory’s production and pinned blame for pushback against it on former artistic consultant Roberta Emerson not being hired to succeed Walsh, rather than presenting her passing-over and dismissal as symptoms of the chronic disconnect between the theater’s board of directors and staff.

Wanzie’s intemperate editorial was seen by her supporters as a personal attack on Emerson, a co-organizer of Central Florida Entertainment Advocacy, which has led calls for reform at the Garden — and the intense backlash prompted Wanzie to withdraw from the upcoming Fringe Festival,

Although aware of the organization’s documented dysfunction, Varela says he ultimately accepted the assignment because “if it wasn’t me, it could have been someone from out of town. It could have been someone that just didn’t have the same values and the same vision.” He says those values include paying a “fair living wage” of at least $650 per week to local non-union actors and crew, and creating a space that’s “inclusive and diverse and welcoming to all people in all different walks of life.” As for the Wanziegram, while Varela says he agreed to be interviewed for it “to tell our side of why we’re involved,” he adds, “I did not know that it was going to take such a personal turn.”

Despite the volleys between Victory’s and CFEA’s camps, Varela says, “Being myself a person of color, I think it’s incredible, the work that they do, and very needed.” As a self-described “pragmatic person,” he says that the city of Winter Garden dissolving or evicting the board for breaching their lease by leaving the stage dark “would have never happened,” and also says demands for the entire board to resign en masse are “not a realistic ask.”

But he does support several of CFEA’s calls for action, including ongoing work with the Edyth Bush Institute, “intensive DEI training for not only the board, but for the staff and for Victory, for myself and my team,” as well as completion of in-progress audits of “all their procedures and structures.”

Varela vows that he and CFEA will “sit down and try to have a dialogue and figure out how we can build this bridge and help heal the situation.”

For her part, Emerson says the first and most necessary step is a public acknowledgment of harms done. “Without that, we cannot move to the other steps that involve the work of repairing the damage,” she told Orlando Weekly in an interview.

With a cast that includes reality royalty Bo Bice (American Idol) and Omar Cardona ( The Voice ) alongside Broadway star/ director Justin M. Sargent, I’m confident Victory’s Rock of Ages looks and sounds as good as this lightweight crowd-pleaser possibly can. (If you want to support the show, but are uncomfortable patronizing the venue, consider seeing it in February at the Villages’ Savannah Center, the second stop on its potential multi-city tour.)

Varela says they’ve already “started early conversations about next season,” and that going forward the Garden will probably focus on resident presenting partners like himself, plus rentals and touring acts, rather than producing seasons internally, essentially undoing years of effort developing the theater’s reputation as a professional regional company. Educational programming, essential to the theater’s 501(c)3 status, also remains on hiatus with no firm future announced.

This whole debacle drives home a few hard truths: First, Orlando’s alleged arts “community” is actually only a dog-eared Venn diagram of overlapping tribes; second, discord between different marginalized groups only benefits the monied powersthat-be (who may sincerely profess not to see black or white, but certainly see green); and finally, Facebook is the world’s worst forum for interpersonal conflict resolution since the Weehawken dueling grounds. I typically use social media solely to selfpromote and share cute cat photos, and have refrained from the fray — less out of antiquated notions of journalistic neutrality, more because nobody needs another well-meaning white man performatively proclaiming his allyship.

However, I hope readers of this column understand I’m firmly in favor of listening to and supporting artists — especially BIPOC women — when they stand up and speak their truth.

Perhaps the most positive thing to emerge from this firestorm was the outpouring of support for Emerson, so I’ll step aside and let her have the last word: “I am so grateful to this community for the uplifting that they did of me. … Sometimes it’s really good to hear that people see and acknowledge the work that you’re doing. And because of that, I’m gonna keep doing.”

SPIT TAKE

Crocante Restaurant in Colonialtown has the meats, and their rotisserie porchetta is the most drool-worthy

Those quick to admonish others for playing with their food have clearly never indulged in Yamuel Bigio’s “Kan Kan” porchetta ($34). This boneless round of loin and belly rotisseried for six hours inside Crocante Restaurant’s East Colonial Drive kitchen yields an outer ring so shellacked, so crackling, so … crocante, that one can’t help but pick up a knife and fork and play the thing like Tito Puente on the timbales. RATA-TATA-TAP-TAP-TAP, RATA-TATA-TAP-TAP-TAP and ohh, here comes Celia Cruz with the vocals — Ríe! Llora! Vive tu vida y gózala toda. And enjoy it all we did. There’s a reason for the “Kan Kan” moniker, too — that ring of pork rind is said to resemble the outer frill of a can-can dancer’s underskirt. ¡Azúcar!

So, if it’s the porchetta you want (and believe me, you want it), get a leg up and put in an order sooner than later. They’ve been known to run out of the signature offering now that word about the restaurant, and about Bigio — a Culinary Institute of America grad who ran his own restaurants in Puerto Rico — has gotten out. I’d just as

OPENINGS + CLOSINGS:

soon return for the empanadillas ($9) stuffed with beef and onions as I would for fingerstick alcapurrias ($8) — ground beef-stuffed fritters fashioned from yautia root and green plantains. They dip effortlessly into the provided pink sauce, but ask for a bottle of pique (chili peppers in vinegar) or, better yet, their yellow hot sauce. We bathed the rellenitos ($9), crisp, delicately fried yuca balls filled with beef, into the latter and wowza! what a winning combination.

Then there’s peppery morcilla ($10), a dark, porky, rice-filled sausage that shows off Bigio’s skills as a hot dogger. And hot it is. “Is it too hot?” asked a server walking past my table. “You’re asking the wrong person,” I said. “I like it hot.” But for those who don’t, the longaniza pork sausage ($10) is a rightproper banger too.

No question: Meat rules here, just as it does at Crocante Rotisserie Kitchen, the small diner/take-out operation Bigio runs in Kissimmee. But one dish you can get here that you can’t in Kissimmee is the churrasco ($30). It’s a pretty skirt of meat served with chimichurri and two sides. I chose corn-

bread and boiled yuca with mojo. If I had to order again, I’d go with the maduros and a cup of the pink beans. The latter was more like a comforting soup. Specialty sides of fat sweet potato rounds (add $1.50) and rice with pigeon peas (add $2.50) were choice choices with the rotisserie chicken ($17).

I slurped on fresh passion fruit juice ($5) in between bites but, admittedly, eyed a mojito being made at the striking bar in the center of the room. Next time, I thought to myself, but, then again, I thought that to myself after seeing the pastelon burger (it’s a sweet plantain sandwich) on the menu, and the mofongo with lobster too.

Hell, next time, the restaurant may have a separate take-out wing, a live music stage, additional local art on the walls (Bigio is a real supporter) and, yep, more menu items. Honestly, I don’t know when the man sleeps. “I get here at 6 a.m.,” he said, and it’s clear he loves every second of it.

Oh, he does all the desserts too, like trembly tembleque ($9), a coconut panna cotta topped with bits of dried mango. I scooped a bit, wiggled it in my spoon, then mischievously sucked it into my mouth much to the chagrin on my dining comrade who shot me a chiding look.

“Don’t play with your food.”

ON (small) SCREENS IN ORLANDO

Streaming premieres you won’t want to miss this week.

PREMIERES WEDNESDAY:

Detective Conan: The Culprit Hanzawa — In the Detective Conan anime series, the perpetrator of each crime was shown in flashbacks as a featureless, shadowy figure, to keep the mystery going. Now that storytelling device becomes a full-fledged character who gets to star in his own comedyoriented series of adventures. If you’ve ever wanted to see “Not Me” from The Family Circus go on a killing spree, this is probably the closest you’re going to get. (Netflix)

The Great British Baking Show: The Professionals: Season 6 — Top pastry chefs compete in a spin-off series that’s arriving on American streaming just in time for us to catch the last go-’round for host Tom Allen. As opposed to Tim Allen, who merely wants to show you his cinnamon stick. (Netflix)

Gunther’s Millions — A four-part docuseries exposes the fabulous life of the world’s richest dog, Gunther VI, who’s worth $400 million thanks to his canine grandfather having been named sole beneficiary in his wealthy owner’s will. Great, so now not even being a very good boy is a damned meritocracy. (Netflix)

The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder — In Season 2 of the well-received revival, the kids are mystified when the hot new student they’ve been fawning over has eyes for geeky Zoey. Doubtless there’ll

be a valuable lesson taught about the unimportance of surface appearances, as soon as the writers are done mining the rich comic terrain of anyone with options digging a homely chick. (Disney+)

Taiwan Crime Stories — Tales of fraud, murder and even rape make up a dramatic anthology series that’s presented in Mandarin and based on the true criminal history of Taiwan. Hey, Beijing: You still wanna come get your boys? They sound like more of a handful than George Santos. (Hulu)

PREMIERES THURSDAY:

Freeridge — This spinoff from the teen series On My Block is said to be more female-centric and lean more heavily into the realm of supernatural fantasy. A new quartet of kids find their lives turned upside down after they accidentally revive an ancient curse. Well, of course a show about teens and “the curse” is going to be girl-oriented. Just because the Joker can get pregnant now doesn’t mean we all have to lose our minds! (Netflix)

Make My Day — Tired of anime series based on existing manga? Here’s an original anime series created by … a guy who’s famous for manga. Yasuo Ohtagaki (Moonlight Mile) spins an all-new tale of prison labor conducted in secret on an icy alien planet. Gee, it’s a wonder they were able to find animators who could relate to that concept at all. (Netflix)

PREMIERES FRIDAY:

Dear Edward — Ann Napolitano’s bestselling novel becomes a series, with newcomer Colin O’Brien in the lead role of a 12-year-old who has to adjust to his new life as the sole survivor of a tragic plane crash. But before you start feeling too sympathetic, just know the little bastard had been kicking the seat in front of him the entire time. (Apple TV+)

Harlem — It’s Season 2 for Tracy Oliver’s comedy about former NYU pals navigating their 30s, with our lead quartet facing a host of new challenges both personal and professional. If the show lasts until they’re in their 50s, we might even get to see them pay off their student loans.

(Prime Video)

Infiesto — Two Spanish detectives have a mystery to solve when a woman who had been thought dead turns up alive and well. Pardon me, but I fail to see how this is pressing police business. “I don’t trust happy endings, Nestor … somebody find me a corpse, before I start to question my purpose in life!” (Netflix)

True Spirit — Real events inspired this drama series about an Australian girl who sets out to become the youngest person ever to sail the globe on her own. Life hack from that kid from Dear Edward: Book a Carnival Cruise and let nature do the rest. (Netflix)

LOCAL RELEASES

From stints in bands like Junior Bruce and Vegan Butcher, noted axeman Nate Jones has long been a card-carrying and distinguished member of the Orlando metal scene. His new solo vehicle IAMASI (pronounced “I am as I”), however, is anything but heavy.

Of IAMASI, Jones says the project is a “place I like to visit to keep my mind clear.” Fitting then that IAMASI’s full-length debut is clarity embodied. The newly released Ain’t Life Grand is a 13-track expanse of crystal post-rock waters free of all feedback and filter. Entirely instrumental and acoustic, the tenor is decidedly serene. What it’s not, though, is sonic wallpaper or open-ended meandering.

Rather than just hovering in the ether, these songs unfold with a clear sense of voyage in Jones’ transporting guitar play. Furthermore, while the album maintains a halcyon wavelength, there’s constant motion between Jones’ guitar lines and the rhythmic foil of drummer Matt Schmidt, Jones’ Vegan Butcher bandmate.

Ain’t Life Grand was conceived to be a portal for solitary journeying. Whether that trek is out on a trail or inside your mind with headphones on, it works that design with gentle dynamism. The album now streams on all major platforms.

CONCERT PICKS THIS WEEK

Death Cab for Cutie, Momma: While Death Cab’s case has long since been made over the past quarter-century with a remarkably sturdy career, the indie-rock warhorses sound like a band refreshed on new album Asphalt Meadows, their most salient record in ages. But watch out for L.A. openers

From stints in bands like Junior Bruce and Vegan Butcher, noted axeman Nate Jones has long been a distinguished member of the Orlando metal scene. His solo vehicle

IAMASI, however, creates crystal postrock waters free of all feedback and filter

Momma. Their 2022 album (Household Name, Polyvinyl) handily proves that even among a buzzing class of young indie-rock bands doing the 1990s redux, they are one of the best. Between their chunky guitars and immediate melodies, they’ve nailed both the aesthetic and the appeal of that golden era. With recent tour stints alongside the likes of Snail Mail, Alex G, Wet Leg and now Death Cab, Momma have “next” written all over them. (8 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 2, Hard Rock Live, $49-$200)

Homeboy Sandman, E-Turn, DNA: Underground rap hero Homeboy Sandman is coming down specifically for a special Florida tour, and he’s rolling with Orlando star E-Turn for the limited five-city run. That one-two combo alone makes this dream bill a knockout, pairing a couple of the most distinctive and original voices in hip-hop right now. This Orlando date is particularly momentous because it’ll also feature the debut of DNA,

the new joint between noted homegrown artists Sean Shakespeare and Eighth Letter. Weaving the night together will be the Grand Collab’s DJ Cub and 200 Records a Day. (8 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 4, Will’s Pub, $15-$20)

Lucero, Justin Wells: Lucero’s rocking side has always been sadly overlooked by everyone, even by the band themselves. I know, it’s an unpopular opinion that some of my old drinking mates would gladly fight me over. Their legendary stage reputation, after all, has been built on live marathons of whiskeyed, lacerating ballads. But the Memphis country-rock legends have some punk in their veins and they wear it very well when they rev things up. Their new album, Should’ve Learned by Now, won’t see full release until Feb. 24, but the several songs released so far reveal a newly energized Lucero. So expect to maybe discover that whiskey’s just as good for dancing as it is for crying. (6 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 5, The Social, $35)

Imperial Triumphant, Cloak, Artificial Brain, Couch Slut, Crossspitter: Like some sort of alien priest kings, NYC band Imperial Triumphant cut a striking figure with their costumes. But behind the sick masks and robes is one of the most ambitious and experimental bands on Earth, with a fiercely avant-garde and intellectual approach to metal. In addition to Imperial Triumphant’s arty intensity, this maximal bill will also feature the big riffs and blackened sensibilities of Cloak, the beastly noise metal of Couch Slut, the technical death metal of Artificial Brain and the fantastically profane metal of Crossspitter. You’ll leave this show with face melted and mind blown. (6 p.m. Monday, Feb. 6, Conduit, $20) baolehuu@orlandoweekly.com

Guest curator and Psych Cat member Sapphire Servellon describes the pieces in Eternal Recurrence as “taking aim at life’s boundless development intertwined with the stagnation of monotony.” The eight artists featured are Servellon, Sara Haj Ali Akbari, Trévien Blodgett, East Docht, Sarah Judsen, Alicia Sales, Maria Sardi and Alejandra Tobón. Psych Cat have been putting on multi-genre happenings and exhibitions locally since 2016 with a mission to signalboost creativity.

Cultural Fabric: An Exploration of Identity and Commonality

WEDNESDAY, FEB. 1

Gel, Big Laugh

Punk may or may not be dead, but hardcore seems to be still (spin-)kicking with youthful vigor, and this weekday bill at Will’s features two promising torchbearers of the genre. New Jersey’s Gel and Minneapolis band Big Laugh are in the final stretch of a U.S. tour billed as “the future of United States hardcore,” with just a few dates in the South and D.C. left. Gel deal in raw, thrashy and reverbed sprints that’ve led to opening slots for OGs like Gorilla

Biscuits and High on Fire, while Big Laugh are poised to release their debut album on Revelation Records, full of brief and brutal rippers. Both bands are adding their own boot stomp/stamp to the careworn HC template. 8 p.m., Will’s Pub, 1042 N. Mills Ave., willspub.org, $15. — Matthew Moyer

THURSDAY, FEB. 2

Psych Cat: Eternal Recurrence

New(ish) Sanford art space Hollerbach’s Art Haus continues a hot streak of shows

Snap! snaps back this week with 2023’s first opening night party in their sleek downtown environs, and it’s a banger. In the main gallery, Cultural Fabric features the work of Brant Slomovic, a photoessayist based in Toronto. Slomovic’s cultural identity as a Jewish Canadian man married into an Indian family intersects with his professional identity as a frontline emergency medicine doctor, making his a unique lens focused upon documenting his world travels. Meanwhile, galleries two and three host paintings, sculpture and photography from Mär Martinez, Diana Zhang, Martha Díaz-Adam and Elise Stürup, who variously claim Syrian, Cuban, Chinese, Lebanese and Dominicana heritage, and explore the juxtapositions and power clashes inherent in American lives with global roots. 7 p.m., Snap!

SATURDAY, FEB. 4

Nikki Glaser

Whenever Nikki Glaser returns to Orlando, it is cause for celebration, and perhaps some concern for the faint of heart and thin of skin. And so it goes, again, for Glaser’s gig at the Hard Rock on Saturday. She’s made her name as a rapacious roaster and one of the most indemand talk show guests of her generation, but it’s her solo stand-up sets where she truly thrives. Glaser’s overtly raunchy style is widely imitated, but never duplicated, because all the copycats are normal people, so they have limits. Nikki Glaser most certainly does not, but she’ll be ready to test yours this weekend. 8 p.m., Hard Rock Live, 6050 Universal Blvd., hardrock.com/live, $35-$45. — Shelton Hull

SUNDAY, FEB. 5

Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band

I was raised by working-class immigrant parents and, yet, something always called me to New Jersey’s greatest export, despite our completely different roots — Iran and the Jersey Shore. I’m sure it was because of a truth I know now: Regardless of where you’re from or what you look like, there’s a solidarity to be found among the working class. And aside from class solidarity, there is perhaps no stronger tie that binds us than a damn good sax solo (rest in power, Clarence Clemons). The Boss comes to the City Beautiful six decades on from his band’s debut album Greetings From Asbury Park, N.J., and in the intervening years they’ve upgraded digs and ticket prices to match. Stadium shows don’t come cheap, but the band gives fans their money’s worth with marathon three-hour shows. And you’ll hear all the hits and plenty from Greetings. But it’s no mere nostalgia. Springsteen and co. pull off the rare trick of looking back and moving forward, singing anthems for the have-nots that never really go out of style. ’Cause tramps like us, baby, we were born to run. 7 p.m., Amway Center, 400 W. Church St., amwaycenter.com, $59-$419. — Ida V. Eskamani

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): “I want to raise up the magic world all round me and live strongly and quietly there,” wrote Aquarian author Virginia Woolf in her diary. What do you think she meant by “raise up the magic world all round me”? More importantly, how would you raise up the magic world around you? Meditate fiercely and generously on that tantalizing project. The coming weeks will be an ideal time to attend to such a wondrous possibility. You now have extra power to conjure up healing, protection, inspiration and mojo for yourself.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Before going to sleep, I asked my subconscious mind to bring a dream that would be helpful for you. Here’s what it gave me: In my dream, I was reading a comic book titled Zoe Stardust Quells Her Demon. On the first page, Zoe was facing a purple monster whose body was beastly but whose face looked a bit like hers. On page two, the monster chased Zoe down the street, but Zoe escaped. In the third scene, the monster was alone, licking its fur. In the fourth scene, Zoe sneaked up behind the monster and shot it with a blow dart that delivered a sedative, knocking it unconscious. In the final panel, Zoe had arranged for the monster to be transported to a lush uninhabited island where it could enjoy its life without bothering her. Now here’s my dream interpretation, Pisces: Don’t directly confront your inner foe or nagging demon. Approach stealthily and render it inert. Then banish it from your sphere, preferably forever.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Theoretically, you could offer to help a person who doesn’t like you. You could bring a gourmet vegan meal to a meat-eater or pay a compliment to a bigot. I suppose you could even sing beautiful love songs to annoyed passersby or recite passages from great literature to an 8-year-old immersed in a video game. But there are better ways to express your talents and dispense your gifts — especially now, when it’s crucial for your long-term mental health that you offer your blessings to recipients who will use them best and appreciate them most.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): In esoteric astrology, Taurus rules the third eye. Poetically speaking, this is a subtle organ of perception, a sixth sense that discerns the secret or hidden nature of things. Some people are surprised to learn about this theory. Doesn’t traditional astrology say that you Bulls are sober and wellgrounded? Here’s the bigger view: The penetrating vision of an evolved Taurus is potent because it peels away superficial truths and uncovers deeper truths. Would you like to tap into more of this potential

superpower? The coming weeks will be a good time to do so.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): The ingredient you would need to fulfill the next stage of a fun dream is behind Door No. 1. Behind Door No. 2 is a vision of a creative twist you could do but haven’t managed yet. Behind Door No. 3 is a clue that might help you achieve more disciplined freedom than you’ve known before. Do you think I’m exaggerating? I’m not. Here’s the catch: You may be able to open only one door before the magic spell wears off — unless you enlist the services of a consultant, ally, witch or guardian angel to help you bargain with fate to provide even more of the luck that may be available.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): I trust you are mostly ready for the educational adventures and experiments that are possible. The uncertainties that accompany them, whether real or imagined, will bring out the best in you. For optimal results, you should apply your nighttime thinking to daytime activities, and vice versa. Wiggle free of responsibilities unless they teach you noble truths. And finally, summon the intuitive powers that will sustain you and guide you through the brilliant shadow initiations. (P.S.: Take the wildest rides you dare as long as they are safe.)

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Fate has decreed, “Leos must be wanderers for a while.” You are under no obligation to obey this mandate, of course. Theoretically, you could resist it. But if you do indeed rebel, be sure your willpower is very strong. You will get away with outsmarting or revising fate only if your discipline is fierce and your determination is intense. OK? So let’s imagine that you will indeed bend fate’s decree to suit your needs. What would that look like? Here’s one possibility: The “wandering” you undertake can be done in the name of focused exploration rather than aimless meandering.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): I wish I could help you understand and manage a situation that has confused you. I’d love to bolster your strength to deal with substitutes that have been dissipating your commitment to the Real Things. In a perfect world, I could emancipate you from yearnings that are out of sync with your highest good. And maybe I’d be able to teach you to dissolve a habit that has weakened your willpower. And why can’t I be of full service to you in these ways? Because, according to my assessment, you have not completely acknowledged your need for this help. So neither I nor anyone else can provide it. But now that you’ve read this horoscope, I’m hoping you will make yourself more receptive to the necessary support and favors and relief.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): I can’t definitively predict you will receive an influx of cash in the next three weeks. It’s possible, though. And I’m not able to guarantee you’ll be the beneficiary of free lunches and unexpected gifts. But who knows? They could very well appear. Torrents of praise and appreciation may flow, too, though trickles are more likely. And there is a small chance of solicitous gestures coming your way from sexy angels and cute maestros. What I can promise you for sure, however, are fresh eruptions of savvy in your brain and sagacity in your heart. Here’s your keynote, as expressed by the Queen of Sheba 700 years ago: “Wisdom is sweeter than honey, brings more joy than wine, illumines more than the sun, is more precious than jewels.”

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Your assignment, Scorpio, is to cultivate a closer relationship with the cells that comprise your body. They are alive! Speak to them as you would to a beloved child or animal. In your meditations and fantasies, bless them with tender wishes. Let them know how grateful you are for the grand collaboration you have going, and affectionately urge them to do what’s best for all concerned. For you Scorpios, February is Love and Care for Your Inner Creatures Month.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Revamped and refurbished things are coming back for another look. Retreads and redemption-seekers are headed in your direction. I think you should consider giving them an audience. They are likely to be more fun or interesting or useful during their second time around. Dear Sagittarius, I suspect that the imminent future may also invite you to consider the possibility of accepting stand-ins and substitutes and imitators. They may turn out to be better than the so-called real things they replace. In conclusion, be receptive to Plan Bs, second choices and alternate routes. They could lead you to the exact opportunities you didn’t know you needed.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Author Neil Gaiman declared, “I’ve never known anyone who was what he or she seemed.” While that may be generally accurate, it will be far less true about you Capricorns in the coming weeks. By my astrological reckoning, you will be very close to what you seem to be. The harmony between your deep inner self and your outer persona will be at record-breaking levels. No one will have to wonder if they must be wary of hidden agendas lurking below your surface. Everyone can be confident that what they see in you is what they will get from you. This is an amazing accomplishment! Congrats!

orlandoweekly.com ● FEB. 1-7, 2023 ● ORLANDO WEEKLY 31

I’m a bisexual woman living in a major city. My boyfriend of about a year is HIVpositive. He’s been undetectable for more than a decade, but I’m on PrEP, just to be double-back-flip safe. I trust science and I’m comfortable with this, in part thanks to your clear and honest conversations around HIV. We have been talking about playing with other couples or singles, but I’m super nervous about contracting herpes, and he agrees he doesn’t need that in his life either. I know it’s part of the risk and I’m aware of all the stigma around having/getting herpes and other STIs. The thing is, I would like to have a very open conversation with our future hookups about testing and STI status. The problem: My partner does not disclose his status. Only a handful of people in his life know. Not even his family knows. How do we go about having a transparent conversation with potential hookups about status and risk if he’s not comfortable disclosing his HIV-positive status? We live in a state where it’s not illegal to withhold this information. Is lying the only option?

Risk Adverse Dame

First, a quick refresher on the science: If someone with HIV is taking their meds and has an undetectable viral load, that person is un-infectious; meaning, that HIV-positive person can’t — cannot — infect someone with HIV. An HIV-negative person is at greater risk of contracting HIV having unprotected sex, i.e., condomless sex, with someone who thinks they’re HIV-negative than they are having unprotected sex with someone who knows they’re HIV-positive and has an undetectable viral load. And while some argue it’s inaccurate to describe bareback sex with an HIV-positive person with an undetectable viral load as “unprotected,” since the meds themselves provide protection, HIV meds — including PrEP, which is a pill HIV-negative people can take to protect themselves from contracting HIV — offer no protection against gonorrhea, syphilis, chlamydia and other STIs. So, meds or no meds, PrEP or PrEP, condomless sex still counts as unprotected sex.

A little more science: A study out of the U.K. found that more straight people were infected with HIV in 2020 than gay people. But while there were more total infections among straight men and women than among gay men — slightly more than a thousand new HIV infections in 2020 among straight people (1,010) and slightly fewer than a thousand among gay men (940) — gay men still remain at significantly greater risk. Only 2.9% of men in the U.K. identify as gay men, while 93.7% of the population identify as straight. Which means almost half of all new HIV infections were concentrated in less than 3% of the population, which is why health officials recommend that all gay and bi men get on PrEP.

OK, RAD, so you and your boyfriend wanna play with other couples; you wanna have open, honest and transparent conversations about STIs in advance of playing; your boyfriend doesn’t want to disclose the fact that he has HIV to anyone.

Is lying the only option?

I guess so. If you want to have sex with other people and withhold this information — which means you would only be pretending to have those open conversations — then lying by omission and commission would indeed be your only option.

Now, you can make a solid case for not disclosing — your boyfriend is undetectable, he can’t infect anyone, you aren’t legally obligated to disclose where you live, you would presumably be using condoms to protect yourselves from other STIs — or you could have sex with couples who don’t wanna have a conversation about STIs in advance. But I’m guessing you don’t want to have sex with couples who aren’t willing to have the STI convo with you, RAD, for your own safety and peace of mind. Which means … you want other couples to be honest with you without having to be honest with them. That hardly seems fair, RAD, especially since you’ve made the choice to get on PrEP for your own peace of mind. Denying other people you play with the opportunity to make that same choice for their own peace of mind isn’t very fair either.

Look, I don’t always think HIV-positive people who pose no risk of spreading HIV — people with undetectable viral loads — are morally obligated to disclose their HIV status to casual and/or anonymous sex partners, although they might be legally obligated in some states by misguided HIV-disclosure laws. But we aren’t talking about anonymous

sex partners here. We’re talking about other couples that you and your boyfriend claim to wanna have honest and transparent negotiations with about sexual safety.

There’s a very real chance that straight couples will refuse to play with you guys if he discloses; straight people and oppositesex couples are far less likely to be informed about HIV and far more likely to reject HIVpositive partners who pose no risk to them in favor of presumed-to-be HIV-negative partners who do. Even worse, there’s a very real chance that word will spread. People talk. The only workaround here that comes close to being ethical is for your boyfriend to refrain from having penetrative sex with other play partners. But even then, RAD, you will be failing to disclose information that your new play partners might feel they were entitled to, e.g., that your primary sex partner is HIV-positive.

I’m a 31-year-old straight man from Denver with a general question about finding dates. I’m 6-foot-2, in shape, have sought therapy and I have a six-figure salary — and I can’t get a date to save my life. I primarily use Hinge to find people, and I work from home and have a friend group that isn’t big on going out to events and such. What general advice do you have for people who are looking and just aren’t having any success? Seems like so many people are going on regular dates, finding relationships, etc., and frankly I’m just struggling to figure out how they’re all doing it.

Love Eludes Dude

Whatever else you do — this is so important — don’t succumb to bitterness, as bitterness will make you radioactive to any woman you

might manage to wind up on a date with. Additionally, LED, you should ask your therapist to level with you about what you might be doing wrong. Do you behave in ways that make women feel uncomfortable, unsafe or uninterested? If your therapist isn’t comfortable telling you what you should or shouldn’t do, then ask them to work with you on identifying the interpersonal skills you might need to work on. Also, seeing as what you’re doing now isn’t working — lurking on Hinge, staying at home — try something else Get on some other dating apps, LED, and get out of the house more. You don’t have to ditch the friends you already have, but you do need to make additional friends, e.g., meet some people who like going places, seeing things and doing shit. The best way to meet those people, LED, is to go places, see things and do shit on your own. Volunteer somewhere, join some clubs, find an adult sports league. These aren’t exactly blazing new insights on my part; with the exception of dating apps, I could’ve lifted this advice from a 60-year-old Ann Landers column. But everything I’m telling you has been the standard, go-to advice for guys in your shoes for decades because it works.

Please note: Following this advice does not guarantee romantic success. But the more shit you’re out there doing and the more people you’re getting to know while you’re out there doing shit — the more you enjoy life — the less miserable you’ll feel. And the less miserable a single person is, LED, the more attractive he becomes to potential romantic partners.
