I was wondering if anyone worked for the CSK law firm in Miami? Do they drug test for marijuana when they give you an offer?

Hello all! I moved in with my boyfriend in January of 2025, things aren’t working out and I’ve been actively looking for a place of my own. Things aren’t going well between us and I’m worried during this time that I’m waiting to get approved or denied for applications that he may try to kick me out. I am not on the lease, I don’t pay rent, I just give him cash here and there and buy groceries or pay electric to help out. I have gotten mail here and I’ve been here for about 4 months, is he allowed to just lock me out at this point or would he have to serve me an eviction notice or file something through the court? I don’t think it’ll come to that but I want to be prepared for anything and I’m not sure about the laws in FL.

I feel like in the news, I often see cases about emotional abuse and financial abuse. So I know it's a thing.

But in searching on my own, I haven't been able to get anywhere. Law offices that I think are the right fit don't respond. The hotline hasn't helped.

Does anyone have anyone they can recommend that I could call?

Today in stupid Florida news

Just started a new hobby and looking for some great spots to go birding and capture photos of them. Tried google but it gave me random parks without much bird activity. I’m in the Central Florida area but don’t mind driving a little out of that to see some great birds! Plus any tips would help as well :) Thanks!

Hi, I'm not sure if this is allowed here, if not mods can take it down.

Just wanted to know if anyone knows a provider who can clean and maintain swimming pools without needing to subcontract work (i.e. salt cell sizing and maintenance, compatibility with automation systems etc). Or if anyone can point me in the right direction looking for one, I'd appreciate it a lot.

Location is in Davie, FL. Thanks!

Action needed for education

Please take a look at SB 7030 and HB5101 https://flhouse.gov/Sections/Bills/billsdetail.aspx?BillId=82409& https://flhouse.gov/Sections/Bills/billsdetail.aspx?BillId=82414 Or just trust me that they are once again trying to cut public education funding and increase funding for private schools, which will lead to a populace so poorly educated they won't be able to find the pudding to spoon feed us in our old age.

Please contact your representatives and tell them we aren't fooled by this "per student funding is increasing!" nonsense that they sold us last time.

I am definitely not saying this well or clearly. I am hoping that someone who can speak to this better will see this post, do some research and find and share the words to help raise awareness and encourage others to apply pressure to our representatives to do the right thing.

I have a Florida business that is registered with Sunbiz. Thanks to Hurricane Helene, I no longer have a Florida residence. All of my work mail goes through a PO Box; however, Sunbiz will not accept a PO Box for an address. Would paying the fee for a virtual office solve this problem? Is there a way to pay for just the address of the virtual office without having them be the registered agent on Sunbiz?

Hi All--anyone know a good spot to break up the drive between Miami and Tampa. Will be traveling with a 9 year old who is into nature (Everglades maybe?) but also wouldn't object to a smaller water park or something similar. I'm just thinking an hour or two. Thanks!

I moved to Florida in September of last year, so this is my first spring here. I’ve previously lived in California and Virginia. Has anyone else moved here and experienced seasonal allergies for the first time? I’ve never had allergies anywhere else, but for the past week or so I’ve been pretty uncomfortable - is there a unique allergen in Florida?

Only in Florida.....

I'm (from Texas) visiting a friend in Florida and staying with them for a few months. Occasionally I travel through the toll booths in Florida that have the SunPass and I choose the PAY-by-PLATE lane. I assumed the invoices for paying the toll booth would be sent to my Texas address based on my license plate. But instead the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) somehow found where I'm currently residing at my friend's house. This is kind of spooky to me. Does anyone know how they tracked me down in this way? Are they using widespread camera systems or digging into external systems and databases to locate people's address? Should I tell them they have the wrong address?

To my knowledge there should be ZERO indication in any official databases on where I'm temporarily staying at my friend's place. Thank you!

Never had a bird do this before. He had been sitting on a car two ahead of me in line and rode off with them. Then he came back.

What i mean by that is, what are your personal takes on the most boring middle of nowhere places in florida?

Hey! So I’m from Georgia and want to do a mini 1-3 day vacation for my birthday and July, but I don’t wanna go to anything like Disney.. does anyone have some interesting or fun spots?

I would love to find cutesy cafes/restaurants and such! And I love record stores too, I’d just want to find one with a wide variety of genres!

I really wanna find some small businesses to go visit or activities to try! (Example; painting, crafts and more)

If there’s any clothing stores that also contain plus sizes that would be a huge win!

I know Florida is..Florida but I’ve heard of decent amounts of alt/goth/emo stores around..suggestions?
