Florida.
For this post, I am going to talk about why I dislike Florida so much, but I will also talk about things I do like about Florida as well. Florida, debatably the worst state in the U.S., to me at least purely due to reasons that could be applied to other states, annoys me to no end. From the crack of dawn to midnight, it is either hot and humid, or hot and humid. It's awful. I see no reason to like Florida based solely on the weather. Another reason I dislike Florida so much is because of the traffic. People in Florida don't know how to drive, and it drives me crazy. The roads are always congested, and the drivers are always aggressive. You could be on the highway or any road, and you can be going 55 on a 55, and all of a sudden you're now at a dead stop because the driver in front of you is stopped for no reason. Florida's abundance of predators is another reason to dislike it. They have alligators, crocodiles, bears, coyotes, Florida Panthers, and bobcats.
The heat and humidity are unbearable, and the bugs can be really annoying too, and I personally really dislike bugs, with a passion. Florida to me, just is not a fun place to go. Oh, and if you're lucky enough to go to Universal, or even Disney, good luck having fun if you don't have a fast pass. The lines are crazy with the wait times. Everything has a line, there is no escape from the lines. Universal and Disney are just glorified standing and waiting in lines all day in the humidity and heat.Oh, and if you're unlucky, while waiting in lines, you'll forget about reapplying your sunscreen, and then end up with massive sunburns. It's impossible to take in all the sights and attractions, and it's a waste of time and money. The experience isn't worth the trouble. Do you know how much it costs for a two-day pass to Universal for two people? I do. It's a stupid amount of money. Roughly 700 dollars and that doesn't include parking or fast passes. It's another 150 EACH for fast passes. Which is another reason I dislike Florida.
However, to give Florida props, it is very pretty and has nice views. The beaches are fun to visit and it's fun to collect shells to bring back home from the beaches. Another thing I do like about Florida is that it has the everglades. I want to visit them this year, as I think it would be cool to visit. The Everglades also provide a great opportunity to observe interesting wildlife, like alligators and birds. I'm looking forward to seeing that up close. I also plan to visit some of the parks and nature reserves in the area. Another thing I like about Florida is that I have family down there, so it'll be nice to go and see them, since the last time I was them was at a funeral.
Florida does have cool places that the Midwest doesn't, such as Gordon Ramsey's fish and chips, which are very good fish and chips, I like the fish more than chips personally though. Hashimoto's which I am excited to attempt to try this year. They also have Disney Springs, which is free to enter, and I had fun last time at Disney springs, they have a hot air balloon-like 'ride'. Disney Springs also has a M&M store where I got my best friend custom-made M&Ms.
Interestingly enough, when I went to Florida back in 2019, I went to Daytona beach, and funny thing, they discovered a possible shipwreck off of Daytona beach. The reason it was discovered was due to coastal erosion, and recent storms. The unearthing of the wreck is the first in about 20 years, so that will be interesting to see, if we go back to Daytona beach this year. Historical preservationists and archeologists are currently researching the wreck to determine its age and origin. It is a exciting opportunity to uncover a piece of history and possibly learn more about the area. The team is hopeful that they will be able to salvage the wreck and gain further insights.
All in all, I dislike Florida, but Florida does have some redeeming qualities to it. I dislike the weather, the drivers, the absurd prices of well-known theme parks, the threat of the amount of predators in the area. But it does have beautiful coastlines, neat ecosystems and wetlands, and family. At the end of the day, I'm most likely going to go back to Florida a few more times, such as for my cousin's graduation or to visit family, it will be fun, but man am I not ready for the weather.

happy we love defending our teammates around here from mr aj "thats one of the biggest things is im very loyal to my teammates and no ones going to take liberties and take any cheap shots towards my teammates" greer
if youd like to know what caused aj to go after kastelic its because of two hits on adam and jesper that happen within 7 seconds of each other and while casters were quick to note the jesper hit they never mentioned kastelic basically riding adam near the benches hard not even a few seconds before that and those within tandem is what makes aj go enoughs enough! and shed his gloves
there has to be something so funny about jesper and uvis hovering nearby as aj just (insert the dog eating cabbage angrily video)
despite wrastling the shit out of a guy aj wants more and honestly a perfect addition to our kitty lineup!! oh delightful little cat!!
boston bruins @ florida panthers | 10.8.24
#aj greer#adam boqvist#jesper boqvist#uvis balinskis#florida panthers#2425#i love how hes on a line with gadjo and yet ajs the one out here fighting#im sure they gonna take turns#oh the 4th line is utterly chaotic if not because paul decided having aj and gadjo together was a good idea#(it is. they are our scrappy 4th line. you can tell paul is has certain dynamics and trops in mind when he constructs the 4th line)#(which is 2 feral gremlins that are ready to fight at all times and their tall calm beauty of a centre that walks them on leashes)#(paul youre a genius)#anyways aj is filling our lombo sized hole if not because he also wears absolutely nothing underneath his underarmour#sliver of skin...#reads books and flashes skin? oh weve got an anamoly over here!!#do you know how funny it is that jesper just pulls up to get an upclose of aj beating the shit out of a guy#you know how dancers in fe have such high evasion so technically they can be in the middle of battle#but because of their low atk they fucking suck and you dont want them in the middle of battle#but also if they stand near units they can give them boons alongside an extra turn if they dance for them...#thats what jesper is to me the little dancer in the middle of battle who should not be there but is there for morale reasons#jesper if you bat your eyelashes a single time i think aj would maul that man for you#4th line dynamics are slowly coming to me as this season will go on but honestly? fucking hilarious

Your tags said that your legacy is Matt's mom? Tell us about her!
This is Jezebel Madeleine Jeevas (but due to the creative cruelty of school children she’s been called Jizzabel one too many times so you can just call her Maddie.)
Idk if people want my full shitty backstories for the Wammy kids but let’s just say that 80% of her problems probably could have been solved if teen mom was a show in the 90’s and that she was the shittiest stripper and con woman the western hemisphere has ever seen.
She loved her son/partner in crime very very much.
Much love to @neallo and @fruitynear for letting me scream about characters that don’t exist.
Lemme know what you guys think and If you want the whole back story
Should I draw Mello’s mom next?👀
#just a single mom and her chuckie finster looking ass child terrorizing all of Florida#some say Roberta is still out there somewhere looking for vengeance to this day#mail jeevas#can you tell i put more effort into one than the other lmaoao#death note#death note Matt#death note headcanon#wammys house#wammy kids#wammys boys#death note fanart#my art#death note headcanons#she’s everyone’s favorite crack smoking coke snorting cock sucking ho

I think the big issue with Harris is that they used up any enthusiasm they had at the outset. When Biden dropped out and Harris stepped up, there was quite a bit of enthusiasm, maybe a hope that something would change. Then Walz was picked as VP, and once again, people were excited because Minnesota was seen as pretty progressive compared to the more institutional democrats. Then, as Novemeber approached, things started to fall apart. Harris started talking about being the most lethal military and securing borders. She got approval from Dick Cheney. And for the lot who were hoping to hear something in favor of brokering peace with Israel Palestine, there was a fake Biden Ultimatum against Netanyahu and nothing was done even while Trump bragged he was talking with Bibi and actively sabotaging Biden's brokering efforts.
I've seen people blame ID politics for their failure, but feminist and queer issues weren't unpopular, per se. Many states—even red states—passed abortion and queer marriage protections. A trans woman was sent to Congress, and this is the first time two black women are senators at the same time.
I think people are tiring of institutional Democrats. There's no excitement with the DNC. Their biggest selling point they keep giving is occupying seats to keep Republicans out of it. Anyone who may have an issue with institutional Democrats are told to fall into rank to keep Trump away. So, even if logically, Trump is a massive blow to a lot of these positions, people don't want to vote for "Not Trump^tm" for the third presidential election cycle in a row. They want and needed someone to get excited about.
I was a sophomore in high school during the 2016 election. By the time Trump leaves office, I will be approaching my 30s. I know there's a lot of finger-pointing right now about who dropped the ball on the presidential election, and we can blame any minor faction we want. "It's the Latinos! It's the progressives! It's the straight white men!"
Honestly, I don't think it's any of the major voting blocks, but, as I've said, the DNC as a whole. For their stuffy suits and constant attempts at reaching across the aisle with people who spit at their existence, demean their identities. When Harris called Republicans weird, people thought we were out of the woods with overly cordial negotiating and finally got someone who was willing to play ball.
I'm in progressive spaces, so it's certainly obvious that my observation that the DNC was too moderate is biased. That said, I think it was a one-two punch of being made to fall into line then losing because of a stark drop in turn out has lead to many believing someone else didn't do their part, almost a resentful "I had to give up my aspirations for the next administration to not be Trump, why couldn't you?"
#i dont normally do political postd#i actively try not to#maybe rb the occasional post about theory or philosophical discussion but i try to keep it light; here.#but ive seen a lot of differing opinions about the fallout of this election. shit sucks.#but i think the least productive part of this is blaming the voters themselves.#shaming people to vote how you want is a fools errand. no one has been shamed into action. at best theyre either shamed into inaction#or they just abandon the source of shaming entirely.#and its fucking infuriating when you are part of the demographic being blamed for not showing up when *you actually did*#people voted for abortion and same sex marriage protections! they do care!#the only reason weed and abortion didnt pass in florida is because they changed the law to demand 60% of the population#and abortion lost by 3%!!!#ultimately the dnc's job was to be something worth voting for#politics#us politics#us presidential election#2024 election#election 2024#this shit sucks so ive included these tags for blocking. im not even going to have notifications on this post

CanesWear Signing | 7.1.24
#niko mikkola#florida panthers#the mortifying ordeal of being known#you can tell how bad i was shaking from how much the jersey moves in my hands oh it was so serious for me its not even funny#“youre my favourite player thats why” “thank you” girl i would eat concrete for you without any hesitation#“new jersey?” me sweating profusely because i have to admit i had this jersey for a while now in front of his face oh god oh FUCK#“where do you want it? here or here?” “anywhere choose where anywhere” “ill do this way”#behold decision paralysis plus the constitution of a doormat with an awful aim to please vs the assuredness of a bull romping through field#“i mean its your jersey at the end of the day”#he says without thinking because he lacks a brain to mouth filter and immediately wants to slam his head into the nearest hardest object#but its okay it got a little smile out of mikksy so maybe my motor mouth can be used for good#my voice is so hoarse because i stood under for 7 hours and also loudly cheered like never before all throughout those 7 hours yesterday#also a lot of people had tickets for both mikksy and lundy or just lundy so thats why the line was moving slowly#so at one point they went OKAY WHO HAS TICKETS FOR JUST NIKO and i raised my hand like oo oo mee ☝️ and got rushed to the front#also a lot of the stuff he was signing was nonspecific posters and hats or other players jerseys (that already had other signatures on em)#which is why the attendant was like oh sweet jersey! and mikksy was like new jersey? because there werent many people at all#comparatively his signing was priced the lowest at 39 out of all cats players. the highest currently is benny at 60#does it suck his line was shorter. there was surprise when someone toddles in with a mikksy jersey. and that his signing was priced low?#yes ofc but also i didnt have to stand in the heat for long got ushered in faster and my wallet didnt cry so lets not kid ourselves here#there are silver lining to everything but anyways first hockey jersey and first signature on it acquire call that a man on a mission 😎👉👉#long tags i love mikksy i lot you understand right <3#also im never wearing this jersey again so i might as well buy a frame and ANOTHER mikksy jersey#to bad it also has my 30th ani cats patch on it too </3

the bittersweet but absolute flood of relief that comes from admitting defeat at living independently, to have to move back in with parents. we tried! we gave it our best shot for almost 3 years! but living like this (being on our own) is just not possible for us at this time of our lives. we've finally proved it to ourselves that we can't do it. it'll be okay to let ourselves rest now
#latimers parents not mine!!!! i am NOT moving back to florida LOL#really hope that the changes will be good for my mental health. this apartment is toxic to us#ive been on the verge of meltdowns Kind Of A Lot lately. imnot doing great#extremely dependent on substances. just to reach a baseline level of functioning. but even that isnt working as much anymore#the only things i do on my phone or tablet these days is like. 2 mobile games. and skirting past my dms to check latimers blog#its too overwhelming to even open discord these days yknow. everything on earth is too much for me right meow#i havent been drawing i havent been social online OR irl i havent been cooking or creating#i havent been keeping up with personal hygiene like at all im particularly ashamed about that one#i've been really bad about doing my T the past few months which is a HUGE shame because im SO fucking hyped to be on it#theres just. too many obstacles in getting it done half the time. and the other half of the time i just forget#anyway. anyway.#our lease ends in july so between now and then we're just gonna try our best to tolerate our living situation enough to get by#there's a light at the end of the tunnel. and its called 'i only have to be in charge of like 2 rooms at most. and not a household!'#we're gonna try to slowly comb through all our things between now and then so the process of moving wont suck as bad#cuz listen. its pretty fucking bad right now#maybe not for other people. but it is for me. and its okay to let myself come to terms with that#im just. so relieved. still very stressed! but theres at least light at the end of the tunnel and its only like 2 months away#ill be able to draw guilt-free again. ill be able to just EXIST guilt-free#i dont think ive felt guilt-free for just existing the way i do since like. turning 20#i know my mom wouldve loved if i stayed home forever. and im sad i cant be there for her#but ever since i had a fight with my dad at 15 or 16 it just really felt like he didnt want me there more and more#maybe as the youngest he was resenting that i was preventing him from becoming an empty nester or something. i dont know#because all the other kids had been moved out and on their own at least once but i had never left home before#i dont know if he'd be heartbroken or not to hear that i feeling like he was resenting me. but thats the energy i was picking up for years#i dunno. i dont know#anyway. back to housing. for now im going to try to relax and store energy for the moving process#the huge pile of things by the kitchen? i dont have to worry about that becoming permanent because we're leaving in 2 months#the general discord of the state of our possessions? we have to go through everything to pack it all anyway. we can move in RIGHT this time#when we moved in here we didnt have a car or license so we were dependent on latimers 3-hr-drive-away parents to help us move#just /across town/. and we had a whole month between leases! but it still had to be done in a weekend

#I have made well over $10k off that Florida shirt#but all it's actually done is fill a massive kangaroo-sized hole that was put in my bank account#and it's still not even properly fixed it all lmao#so it's not really actually profit to me it's just sort of righting some wrongs#because it doesn't even feel like I'm making money / I don't feel the success of it#which like! what a blessing it's happened and those are getting fixed but that also sucks#but anyways I think I really really want a really nice iPad and that would REALLY up my design game#however I also think that I should not do that because I do not have money to spend#but I did just literally make $10k off of a DESIGN I deserve a little treat#but thats not treat money thats just money that was missing that. ahem. should never have left#UGH
