Floridians unite!

We can be a good example for once!

Call Ron's office and let him know you stand against the charges Briana Boston is facing.

Y'all Waffle House closed in Flordia, the weather-man was crying, I don't think the Floridians have enough guns for this one.

(Being serious, tho Hurricane Milton is so massive because of climate change and global warming. If we keep going at this rate we're all fucked. Let's stop Climate Change and hopes to all those affected by Milton.)

"CALLING COMRADES EVERYWHERE!!

Organizers from the Tampa 5 with @tampabaysds the Florida 4 with @sfl_arc and the Young Lords with @newerayounglordsflorida are joining us for a panel on political repression hosted by our chapter!

Florida is becoming an epicenter for the repression of mass movements and organizers, especially those who are BIPOC and LGBTQ, are facing violence from the state as well as from the far right.

We'll discuss the repression our panelists have faced and are currently facing, what it means to fight for bodily autonomy and public education in the era of Ron DeSantis, and how we can begin to fight back with a working class movement!

The panel will be held on Sept 22nd, hybrid and in-person, at Florida International University's Ryder Business Building room 140 and online at

AOTD - Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, who this past Wednesday, signed int law the bill HB1645 which strikes the two words “climate change” from all state law.

Under this new law, climate change - in actual word and in concept - will simply disappear from state statutes.

While the bill will literally erase several instances of the words “climate change” from state statutes, it will also more absurdly restructure the state’s energy policy that to no longer list climate change as a priority when making energy policy decisions.

Making this critical issue political, DeSantis said, "Florida rejects the designs of the left to weaken our energy grid, pursue a radical climate agenda, and promote foreign adversaries…”

He says that instead, the priority now is to ensure “an adequate, reliable and cost-effective supply of energy for the state in a manner that promotes the health and welfare of the public and economic growth…” and then added that, “radical green zealots want to impose their climate agenda on people through restrictions, regulations, and taxes.”

Critics say the move ignores the risks of climate change facing Florida, including rising seas, flooding and extreme heat.

The legislation deletes more than 50 lines of previous state statutes dealing with climate change which have been on the books since Governor Crist in 2008.

And in that classic Republican hypocritical manner of hating big government and big-brother-ness unless they want to use it, the bill also prohibits any local governments from enacting their own energy policy restrictions …

The bill also prohibits the construction or expansion of any offshore windmills. Done. Over.

And again in classic hypocritical Republican fashion, DeSantis indulges corporate insurance companies to go head and keep charging usurious rates to Floridians to insure their homes, based precisely on these realties which DeSantis prefers to ignore and pretend away.

So, Floridians will be subject to incredibly high insurance rates to protect their homes… from a non-existent problem… DeSantis’ bill is another of his nods to corporate fossil fuel companies - and again, in classic Republican fashion, makes legislation that runs against the majority of his constituents…

On the day he signed the bill, a poll of his actual constituents said that 68+% of Floridians believe their state government should do more to address climate change.

THIS is Republican governance�� opposite of what constituents want, serving only corporate interests, and completely dangerously victimizing to the future health and wellbeing of citizens….

I remember one time I was talking with my friend Jacob about me going to Atlanta for a friend’s wedding and he said,

“Bro in Atlanta, be careful, you could get shot.”

…

I live in Florida, I live an hour away from the shark bite, the lightning strike, and the meth capitals of the world.

Two hours south from where I live someone got high on bath salts and ate someone’s face off.

Thirty minutes north of my house, right now, there is a lake filled with over 10,000 alligators. And sometimes during hurricane season those gators get LIFTED FROM THE LAKE. AND LAUNCHED INTO NEIGHBORING BACKYARDS.

SHARKNADO STYLE.

Do you THINK. I’m SCARED. OF YOUR BULLETS?

Hiii I’m sorry that this isn’t art, but it’s very important I feel that I share this around, as a member of the LGBTQ+ community and as a Florida resident.

They have now extended the Don’t Say Gay bill to all grade levels, K-12. This is exactly what we said would happen. You give them an inch, they take a mile. And they will NOT stop here. They will continue to ban us, to the point where I fear that we will be hunted down. Florida is not safe. I don’t know what to do. I have voted in EVERY ELECTION I could since I turned 18, and if anything, the government gets more and more conservative. And I, as well as several other LGBTQ+ people, can’t afford to just pick up and leave. We are in danger.

I don’t really have any sort of solution for this. Just… if you are an LGBTQ+ person in Florida, I recommend getting out of here as soon as you can, and to find safe places to stay. Do not move to Florida, or even vacation here, especially if you’re LGBTQ+. It’s not safe, and we need to protest this where it’ll hurt Florida’s economy. And if you live somewhere else… please don’t let your home end up like this. Vote and protest this so it doesn’t become law.

Please stay safe out there friends. Hold your loved ones close.

From what I understand, statistically, 1 in 4 women in America have had an abortion.

So none of those women who had abortions were conservative. None of the men that ever paid for the abortions one was conservative?

An honest question.

Herschel Walker is stuck in my mind.

So many rich conservative people, especially men, are privately more pro choice than they admit.

Florida!HTTYD Book AU

(specifically Florida Panhandle! AU) 

Like Hiccup, I too grew up around an archipelago of islands full of venomous and dangerous reptiles! (Had a couple of close calls too!) I went kayaking, boating, hiking, fishing, you name it! Unfortunately, growing up in Florida meant I had to deal with Floridians. So, again, like Hiccup, I ran into lots of...characters.

This idea started off from me making a joke to my brother about how Madguts would be a Trump supporter and drive a Ford ages ago. Then it all went downhill from there. (Honestly, I could write a whole post on Florida!Madguts alone.) Someone in the reblogs of one of my posts also wished for it. This one goes to y’all.

Incoming cursed-as-hell long-ish post:
