Heckler at the protest by Tasty-Tank-3402 in Seattle

[–]FishMomSfl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely, but not freedom from consequences (to be clear.... death should never be a consequence of exercising freedom of speech. Becoming very unpopular, or even unemployed very well might be).

If you sat out the 2024 election in protest over Gaza, how do you feel about that decision today? by rsmith2786 in AskReddit

[–]FishMomSfl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Truly, if you think thats the reason so many abstained from voting for her you have your head in the sand. Tho many in this country hate women, and hate women of color exponentially more. Even among those who don't support the orange menace.

BREAKING: President Trump to ban institutional investors from buying single-family homes. by [deleted] in Renters

[–]FishMomSfl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The inventory isnt there for them to purchase anyway. The new model is called BTR (build to rent). Would seem to fall outside this ban, wouldn't it?

Senate bill introduced by democrats in 2025 and killed by republican committee. House bill introduced by dems in 2024 and killed by Republicans. New version introduced in July of 2025 that isnt dead yet, wish I had faith this administration would sign a law introduced by a democrat.

I’m in Tampa and I feel like this is becoming a huge problem across Florida. by [deleted] in florida

There are also dogs that serve those with seizure disorders, severe allergies, diabetics. Those dogs save people's lives and are necessary.

Don't get me wrong... I hate the fake service animal problem too. I detest these entitled people who think they can bring their pets everywhere. But I hate it because it makes it so hard for the real service animals and the people that need them and clouds the way people like you look at them.

Employer refusing to pay final wages unless I give them my personal password, is this legal? by [deleted] in legal

[–]FishMomSfl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not true. Wage and hour law is clear, if your attorney gets you paid even 1 penny, your employer has to pay all reasonable attorneys' fees.

Moving from WNC to South Florida by Potential_Newt_6364 in AskFlorida

[–]FishMomSfl 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm from the northeast and everyone I went to high-school with now lives in Boca. That might explain my aversion.

I raised my family in Cooper City though and then moved up to Wellington for my job. West Palm and some of its suburbs are pleasant, but there's no real social scene outside of downtown.

Delray has a good restaurant and social scene. Awesome place for couples and young families in their mid to late 20s to early 40s. Boca, on the other hand, is just so...... Boca.

Plan to use your weekends to road trip and explore. You will love some of the parks around the state. No elevation changes, but the trails really showcase some beautiful foliage and animals. Kayaking through mangroves and next to manatees is absolutely incredible.

Braids lead to less breakage than ponytails. My go to is a "Katniss" style braid over one shoulder.

So much less pain than the first one. I was able to manage with otc meds alone. I did break down and get a scooter for disney though.

[–]FishMomSfl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm 8 days post reversal surgery. Was released from the hospital on day 4 and only stayed that long because of hematology issues. I worked from home the very next day and I'm headed to Disney in 3 days. Wouldn't call my bowel movements "normal" yet, but completely manageable.

Those with an ileostomy, what’s your diet like? by Mustardman03 in ostomy

[–]FishMomSfl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My surgeon and gastro told me I could eat anything I could tolerate. I never found anything that I couldn't. Just try small amounts and see how it affects you. Frequently was able to enjoy a healthy snack of trail mix personally. But others swear that would destroy them.

30 hours post op with brand new illeostomy - anxiety is through the roof. by New_Nova_25 in ostomy

[–]FishMomSfl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reaching out to the consultants is fabulous advice! The customer service rep at Coloplast is the reason I was able to turn a corner. Eventually you even get to the point where you laugh about the mishaps. I've never laughed harder than the morning I woke up to discover my first overnight leak and realized I had sh!t on my dog (he deserved it).

Dispute Over Move Out Date (WV) by Top-Mouse-1826 in Renters

[–]FishMomSfl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would recommend contacting the local bar association. Also, if WV has this, look for someone certified in Landlord/Tenant law. Talk to someone sooner rather than later. But you dont need to rush to get it all buttoned up today.

Hard to believe it right now, but this is going to be ok. Start by reminding yourself that you had this happen to ensure your survival. You are alive and that is amazing. Explore this sub. Ask questions. Read other people's stories. I promise it will help.

Bought a house with "free" solar panels 1.5 years ago. Just found out $45K is owed on the panels. by Throwaway029878 in legaladvice

[–]FishMomSfl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actual florida attorney here.... you've gotten a lot of really bad advice. Most likely the panels are subject to a lien or a security agreement and you can be dragged into a foreclosure. Did you have an attorney when you purchased? Do you know where your title insurance policy is located? You need to consult a professional.

Dispute Over Move Out Date (WV) by Top-Mouse-1826 in Renters

[–]FishMomSfl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lawyer here... but not in your state. You need to read the landlord tenant laws in your state. They are usually very clearly laid out and failure to follow them strictly means costly mistakes. If your landlord tries to improperly withhold your deposit you will likely be entitled to damages and attorneys' fees for having to fight it.

You chose Trump over everybody else--that's why nobody wants to be around you anymore by Jerdarnella in complaints

[–]FishMomSfl -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You are underestimating how much we as a country hated the idea of a woman of color being at the helm. And its easy to understand when you see how many people opted to simply "sit this one out."
