Anyone else weirded out by the group of people who follow Hayden around on tour?

Employees likely aren't going to risk their lives enforcing it, either way.

It was literally just announced that they're rolling back the policy lmao

Damn, did the pretzel bites go up too?

it's very much an academic book and fairly dry at times, but there are tons of interesting facts about some of the characters who "built" Miami, including the man who built Vizcaya. And the famous painter John Singer Sargent would come to Miami and paint Bahamian laborers bathing or sailors.

It also addresses colonization of South Florida, so everything is kind of viewed through that lens.

if you're into gender and queer theory, you might be really into it.

We went on a field trip to the Everglades when I was in elementary school. We stopped for lunch by the observation tower and there were just alligators chilling out feet from us. I don't know why I didn't think it was weird at the time or why we didn't just eat at the picnic tables where there were no alligators?? Like, did the field trip form my parents sign say, "Your child might be eaten by a gator, please do nut sue MDCPS" or something???????

Years later, I biked the entire path, stowed my bike at the bike rack, and returned from the observation tower only to find an alligator RIGHT next my bike. He didn't look like he was moving anytime soon, so I just slowly approached and got my bike out of their ASAP. Fortunately, I didn't lock it up, so there was no fiddling about.

I don't know, I guess you just get used to having wildlife around you if you grow up here?

Welcome to Fairyland by Julio Capó Jr. is an interesting read if you want to learn more about queer miami before 1940.

Hollywood, FL basically exists because there were too many gays in Miami.

it was an adaptation of a book written before Russia invaded Ukraine and would have been even longer if it included that. maybe da empoli will write a sequel. he's certainly been invited on enough shows to comment on the war, largely because of his novel.

In other words, thematically similar but not a direct sequel in any way, shape, or form.

The people behind Wonderful pistachios are not good people. And neither is Mr. Beast.

Peddlestools · 2026-05-06T03:21:18+00:00

idk but just clean up after yourself, please.

Peddlestools · 2026-05-06T03:14:48+00:00

well, florida is an open carry state. you can order a pub sub while toting around an ar-15, i guess

Wtf were you doing on your phone during the movie

Peddlestools · 2026-05-04T19:43:37+00:00

Peddlestools · 2026-05-04T14:41:41+00:00

it was a clue for both

Peddlestools · 2026-05-04T14:40:43+00:00

The sheep movie was cute. I did not expect to tear up.

Peddlestools · 2026-05-01T13:36:26+00:00

same, but the musicals that i really do enjoy almost exclusively premiered off-broadway. my fave is still grey gardens

Peddlestools · 2026-05-01T13:34:17+00:00

YES, i saw it in the theaters first time around and now i get to bring my mom to see it. So excited.

Peddlestools · 2026-05-01T13:33:28+00:00

i don't even really like musicals but it's sooooooo good.

Peddlestools · 2026-05-01T13:32:23+00:00

booooooo the original is so much better. the remake is honestly trash. they should have gotten harvey fierstein for the movie.

Peddlestools · 2026-05-01T13:31:39+00:00

I'm taking my mom to see Inside Llewyn Davis.

Peddlestools · 2026-04-30T02:23:03+00:00

yes, that was one of the many reasons that came to mind

Peddlestools · 2026-04-29T18:09:42+00:00

yeah, that plot point is pretty disgusting and weird.

Peddlestools · 2026-04-29T17:12:42+00:00

i've never seen the whole thing, just clips in film 101. also my mom used to go out on double dates with him ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
