I swear you cannot make this stuff up. They want to allow open carry in libraries and they want to raise the age on when you can get a library card without a parent from 16 to 18. I guess books are more dangerous than guns? You can read the story here.

Hello friends and neighbors! I'm heading out of town for the week to sit next to a pool and not do computer stuff. No event list this week! So it's your turn - comment with any events you're aware of or excited to attend.

Don't burn the place down while I'm out of town!

Have fun!

InfinityCon is this weekend for anyone looking for some anime/nerd themed thing to do! It's small, but it's always fun to see who's vending and chat with the artists. :)

Aka David M Burks Property Management. They deleted their Google listing to get out from under the cascade of bad reviews. In all my years of renting they were by far the worst of the worst. Lying and saying we never paid rent (we started filming ourselves handing them our checks), holes in the roof that they wouldn’t fix, leaving hundreds of voicemails never to be returned. All of the reviews were same story. They have all the same dilapidated properties listed. Please do yourself a favor and don’t fall for the trap

Yes. My neighbors already wished the whole neighborhood a happy July 3, July, 2, July 1, June 30.....

Drive thru is taped off and there's a car that seems to have caught on fire in the bushes.

Damn. I saw him parked there and the guy sitting in it before any fire. There was a cop behind him.

I forgot that today was officially the launch of Breeze's service from Ft. Lauderdale and Raleigh, but early reviews seem to be positive, if only for the price more than anything.

If anyone takes one of the early flights, I'm sure people here would be interested in hearing how it goes, especially if flying to Raleigh. Here's hoping that this is successful and eventually they expand beyond 3 days a week here.

Just a reminder - Breeze is operating in Tallahassee on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays. The city is subsidizing some of this by offering about $1.5 million in incentives as part of the $600,000 a year grant program started to entice new airlines, plus lowering the airport fees for Breeze.

I (unknowingly) booked and flew the first flight to Raleigh yesterday.

Modern, clean plane (Airbus?). Smooth process. Was about 95% full.

They charge for carry-on and... like other airlines, charge for seat selection. Flight alone with taxes was $170 round trip.

1 hr 10 min flight.

Extremely happy to have another option to get out of Tallahassee.

One thing the Tallahassee reddit community regularly references for those visiting/considering Tallahassee for relocation is the quality of natural diversity in the area. That shared, I haven't seen many actual posts showing it. I'm going to give a shot at making a few shares in the coming weeks that do so. Starting with a video that highlights melanistic/black coyotes in our area. Worth noting, the gene for black coloration wasn't found in the coyote population further west that over time expanded into our area. DNA studies have shown the genetic introduction actually was introduced when coyotes expanding eastward mated with red wolves that did have melanistic genes. The state of Florida has one of the highest percentages of melanistic coyotes at 8%, compared to the Carolinas at 5%, Georgia at 3%, and Alabama at 2%. Studies also show that in deep canopy forests and swampy lowland settings, the black coloration helps coyotes hide in shadows better than tan coloration with increased survivability and lifespans. **ALL footage in the video was captured via camera less than 15 miles from the steps of the state capital building!**👍

This is so cool! We have one that frequents our property in east Leon, he was a very happy camper when we were working on eradicating the feral hog population

Does anyone know what the deal is with Mahan Dental? My husband is a patient there. He’s in the middle of getting some crowns. Last week one of the temporary crowns fell out and the earliest he could get an an appointment was July 20th. That’s crazy.

Over the weekend he lost a second temporary crown and now he’s got a full blown infection with abscess. He’s been trying for three days now to get someone, anyone from that office to even just speak with him about this and it’s crickets. They seem only to use an answering service with an AI loop. No one is returning messages at all. He also tried going through the portal and nothing.

He was seen at urgent care over the weekend for antibiotics and his primary on Monday for some better pain management. He was seen this morning by MY dentist and is now in a chair getting an emergency double root canal. He still hasn’t heard back from Mahan.

I don’t see him returning to Mahan after this ordeal but just wondering if anyone else has experienced this bc it’s pretty fucked up.

That is horrible patient care. Please report them to the Florida Dental Association. And thanks for sharing so others know this business is not reliable.

Got my first summons here, planning on what I can bring to entertain/feed myself. Someone who's been through it in Leon County, give me the rundown?

Hello Tallahassee community! I am just posting this to warn any students or anyone looking for an apartment complex near FSU to NOT, under any circumstances, sign a lease at Vertex Apartments off of Jackson Bluff. In my entire time living I have never had such a terrible living situation. The management here is HORRIBLE and they actively let me live in a unit with NO RUNNING WATER for over 70 days and still forced me to pay rent as to not be evicted. The people running this place refuse to communicate unless I actively go to the leasing office every day and they have made no headway in either putting me in a similar size unit with water, fixing my water, or stopping the rent charges. I have never dealt with something like this and that's not even to mention the termite and roach infestation that seems to be running across the entire complex. For 3 months now I've paid rent on a place with no water, it's sick, DO NOT SIGN AT VERTEX! You have been warned.

Have you reported this complex to the Tallahassee Code Enforcement division?

https://www.talgov.com/publicsafety/CodeEnforcement

Drove past earlier and had to do a double take. FHP had the blue lights going in the parking lot off Apalachee Parkway across from Whataburger and there were quite a few Penske trucks backed up to the building. Thought it was a fender bender at first but nope, watched them load what looked like gaming/slot machines straight into the truck.

Turns out it was yet another illegal casino operation getting shut down. Only in Tally lol.

Anyone else catch this or know more details? Curious how these places work as they seem to never go out of business despite frequent busts and never have a shortage of guests- do people actually win real money at these places? I always thought it was a straight scam but perhaps not.

I walk my dog by there at close to sunset almost daily and have been amazed at the number of cars in the parking lot. It makes sense this is illegal activity and not a late night rush on acupuncture and dog grooming…

Did you help an older lady outside HCA who fell on the way to her car?

If so, that was my grandma, and she is so grateful for the people who stopped and helped her get back up, but especially to the Black woman who got a wheelchair and pushed her all the way to her car.

She didn't get your name and feels bad you had to push the chair all the way back across the parking lot, but wants you to know that she really appreciated everything you did for her, as do I.

So please, if you were one of the people who stopped, you have my heartfelt thanks and gratitude. May your souffles always rise and every parking meter you come across still have the amount of time on it you need.

Hello everyone, I apologize in advance for maybe ruining your evening.

https://preview.redd.it/3y4p65oqvb9h1.jpg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2459e04e6a22b3e58b4cb99be3623dcc3f8746fc

This is a long one, so here's the tl;dr:

• The county commission is most likely having an agenda item on Flock on July 14th at 3:00 p.m. Check the agenda on 7/7 to make sure. If you want these cameras out of Leon County, please be there if you can.

• The city commission will receive an agenda item on Flock safeguards/legislation in a future meeting, likely in August. I will make another post when the time comes.

• TPD obtainedFlock cameras through underhanded means and have no pubicly available reassurances of safeguards against their misuse. The policies they do have are redacted. I wouldn't trust them with the more invasive surveillance tools that have just started coming out. "Connect Tallahassee" is just the next step in their surveillance expansion.

• 99.98% of the 108 million license plate reads per year collected by TPD ALPRs were not used for TPD investigations. The massive amount of location data is highly valuable to data brokers and federal agencies and there is little in the way of Flock simply changing their terms and conditions to sell it.

• TPD, LCSO, the RTCC, and other Leon County LE's have access to enough surveillance tools that, with the help of AI, they will likely be capable of predictive policing in the near future. The only thing preventing this from continuing to be built silently is community pushback against this tech.

• Below and in this google drive pdf, I have provided some supporting information for this claim. Please take the time to learn about these new technologies before your 4th Amendment and 1st Amendment rights are legally violated.

July 14th County Commission Flock Agenda Item:

In May, I made a post on the county report of public surveillance tools. Me and another individual (THANK YOU!) spoke on the Flock cameras to the county comission. The commission voted unanimously to come back with an agenda item on county oversight of these systems. Special thanks to Commissioner Caban and Minor for explicitly addressing privacy concerns. That said, at the June county commission meeting, the county attorney stated that the commission would be coming back with an agenda item specifically on Flock cameras in July.

***** For those of you against or ~~unfortunately~~ in support of these cameras, please mark your calendars for the** July 14 county commission meeting at 3:00 pm**. * Be on the lookout for the agenda being posted on 7/7 to read the report and which item it is. The commission will occasionally postpone items so make sure to check before going.

I know the meeting is during typical work hours, but please find a way to be there. At the May county meeting, the primary reason COCA supporters were able to avoid a vote for the organizaitions defunding without much conversation was because 100+ supporters showed up and 50 or so spoke. Nationwide, people have only removed these invasive systems from their town by organizing and showing that the public does not support a third party constantly extracting their location data and selling it to law-enforcement, purchasaed with their own tax dollars.

The address is in the link. Simply go to the 5th floor of the county courthouse downtown. Then, if you are able, get there a few minutes early and sign a speaker card and give it to one of the administrators. I believe you may also be able to speak from an online video call if you can't make it in person.

If you're reading this, thanks also to the group of people I conversed with about Flock at Warhorse, Power Mill last night. Hope to see you all there.

What about the CoT Commission?

At the June city commission, I brought up the underhanded acquisition of Flock by TPD and stressed the need for safeguards on the Flock technology. Specifically, I pointed towards city legislation by Austin TX, the TRUST Act, which instituted some extensive, proactive safeguards. Austin cancelled their Flock contract in 2025 due to public pressure and conversations with the city council.

City commissioners Matlow and Porter are very aware of Flock and have asked for a future information agenda item on what legislation and actions other cities are doing re:Flock. I hope to speak with them in the near future. Feel free to send them an email here.

Why Care About Flock?

Since May, I have done way too much digging on this system and have uncovered a lot more on the growing surveillance state that's in our backyard... Check out the crowd-sourcedmap of ALPR's across Tallahassee (Deflock).

Here's the short version:

If you didn't know, Flock is an Atlanta-based company manufacturing automated license-plate readers (ALPRs) with the lofty goal of "eliminating all crime". The most common ALPR is the Falcon, a fixed camera that also has video-surveillance capabilities. It collects picture and video of every vehicle that passes by 24/7 to be used in a historical, searchable database. This is the device people see on black poles next to roadways. Axon and Motorola both have their own versions of the Falcon with generally the same capabilities.

Older model Falcon Camera

A good chunk (30+) of the Flock cameras TPD has were obtained via the school zone speeding camera program (RedSpeed gives 2 Flock cameras per speed zone). TPD, at the prompting of City Comissioner Matlow, admitted in Dec. 2025 that these cameras are only used for investigative purposes. I suspect that DHS and State (FDLE) grants are also supporting the acquisition of these cameras. This is why the city and county commissions basically had no idea that these cameras existed until they saw them along the road like everyone else. TPD didn't have to get them explicitly approved and kept quiet about obtaining them with the speed zone camera program.

At the Jan. 2026 City Commission Retreat, TPD outlined the number of Flock, Axon, and Vigilant (Motorola) ALPRs currently being used. The number of fixed ones TPD has is 125. TPD reported these cameras read 108 million plates per year (300,000 per day) which supports a searchable database that police can access with only a case number and a one-word reason. Chief Revell states they need a "criminal predicate" to use the system. However, nationwide examples of ALPR abuses by departments with the same policy does not prove convincing that an internal policy will protect people from misuse. Notable examples from those include tracking a woman for obtaining an abortion pill in TX and a Flock employee watching Flock cameras in a children's gymnastics room for several hours as part of a "sales demo" for indoor, community center use.

TPD states that they used the ALPR databases for 24,000 searches and the cameras assisted in 276 investigations. Doing some basic math, this means 99.98% of the data collected by TPD ALPRs was not used in searches. If we assume that TPD used 10 searches for each investigation (very generous assumption), then 99.9975% of the vehicle location and characteristic data was not used by TPD for investigations. Flock has stated they don't sell this data to interested parties, but so has every tech company that has said the same thing at some point (Google, Microsoft, Meta, Verizon, etc.). In Feb. 2026, Flock changed their terms and conditions to exclude "We do not sell customer data". Flock says nationwide that they record 20 billion plates per month. It is naive to think that data brokers, ICE, the FBI, Palantir, Oracle, etc. are not salivating at the prospect of getting access to this information. Why would a for-profit company waste >99% of the data it collects when it is extraordinarily valuable?

If you didn't know, Oracle was sued in 2022 and paid a $115 million dollar settlement for creating digital profiles on over 5 billion people. Digital profiles are being built by data brokers like LexisNexis and Thomson Reutersand are selling this data to law enforcement without a warrant. The House has already bipartisanly passed a bill, the 4th Amendment is Not For Sale Act, that bans the widespread, warrantless purchase of personal data of Americans by LE. It is unfortunately stuck in Senate Hell.

I'm sure all of you have seen the UK arresting people over social media postswhich has already happened in Florida. The UK has already been playing with algorithms that predict criminality based on what data they have of you. TPD and LE across the nation have been adopting data integration tools that give personal and public information on every citizen with the help of one tool, Peregrine. Paired with AI, this, and other systems like it become capable to give "risk-assessments" of behaviors collected about you from different data sources, online and physical. Also FYI, Flock has already implemented some predictive policing systems and will only increase as their system becomes more commonplace.

It is no longer a question whether or not we are on a fast track to predictive policing and precrime as seen in Philip K. Dick's Minority Report. It is only a question of how soon it will get here, unless people push back against it.

For More Information:

Here is thelink to the reference sheet I tailored for the city and county commissions covering the whole ordeal, including some other bits about facial recognition and social media monitoring. Detailed sources are given at the end and some useful links are found throughout. I hope it is useful for you. Please share it if you like.

If you want to ask any questions or reach out to organize against this surveillance tech, feel free to DM or email me at the contact in the pdf.

As I said before: I do not encourage or condone the damage of these surveillance systems as destruction or tampering can be charged as felony criminal mishief (FL Statute 806.13).

Is this a play? Or something else? Thanks for posting but a few more details would be good.

This past week has been crazy with rain and thunderstorms. Was it like this last summer? The amount of flooded roads I’ve seen seems abnormal but it might just be recency bias.

Ponce de Leon Park. 9am-1pm. Something for everyone!

If you can get close enough to read the band on its leg, you can determine if it's wild and being tracked through the following site.

https://www.pwrc.usgs.gov/BBL/Bander_portal/login/reportband.php

Since it has two bands, I'd be inclined to believe it's wild and being tracked.

Here we go again. Story

Tallahassee didn't do it. The state legislature banned adding fluoride and the city had no say in the decision.
