Tallahassee apartment owner pays city $100K for late utilities after city threatens to cut off water According to an email sent by the city to the landlord on March 18, Whispering Pines owed $130,149.98 in utility bills, with $101,009.30 past due.

Cities must stop allowing landlords to manage the complex's only water account.

When they skip out on the bill, they put their residents at risk of losing an essential service, like what's happening in Tampa now and previously in Tallahassee.

It's sickening how common this story is -- and it's completely avoidable! Give every apartment unit its own water account, @cityoftampa.bsky.social.

I hope that’s the case. @wftv.bsky.social will you update your story? There’s a story on your website with a higher death toll compared to other outlets

My Mom called me to talk about the FSU shooting and then made a comment about how this will make more people not want to have kids, because we can’t even keep them safe.

I hate that death by guns, along with death by cars, are just a long-accepted reality of modern American life.

Five people are dead, with their families and friends mourning their loss because you’ve consistently failed to to take gun violence seriously.

Floridians deserve more than prayers and a Governor who erased progress on gun reform by allowing permitless carry.

I’ll keep an eye out for the briefing

I hope that’s the case. I’ve heard the shooter fled campus or that there’s an accomplice. Obviously a lot of reports going around but I hope FSU makes an official announcement soon

My friend is hiding in a classroom right now.

Let’s hope no one is seriously or fatally injured and FSU/Tallahassee can heal from this.

AI's rapid expansion is producing millions in profit for utilities, at the expense of rural Black communities in South Carolina.

@adamlmahoney.bsky.social breaks down how current energy policy exposes these communities to debt & erasure, repeating the failures made under FDR's New Deal.

Before you can even get on a payment plan, you have to pay down 50% of the past due amount. That's not feasible for some people.

Tallahassee Utilities is seriously telling its customers to pay up or freeze if they can't afford their inflated utility bills.

Hundreds, if not thousands, of customers could lose power ahead of the incoming winter storm because their too poor to qualify for a payment plan. That's just heinous.

I'm trying for Houston and every time tickets pop up, they disappear!! I went to Renaissance in Tampa and the ticketing experience was soooo much easier. I really hope tickets open up for the Verizon presale bc it's looking bleak out here ;___;

Glad you got a ticket!!!

The Republicans have kissed and made up, as expected. So I am once again asking why @fladems.bsky.social thought it was a good move to praise the very people stripping millions of Floridians of their rights.

We need party leadership focused on protecting us from our oppressors, not praising them.

The nice thing about Bluesky is I can just share my thoughts openly, without feeling like every word is being scrutinized.

I’m here to share, learn, and find community. Not fight strangers on the internet for having an opinion they don’t agree with

The Left deeply cares about community and social progress. The images of our movement must reflect that.

Here, an outlet is making it seem like Progressives are the main driver of social atomization, because we’re averse to exclusively conservative pursuits, like family and committed relationships.

But our refusal to rehab our image has allowed conservatives to capture voters by simply branding themselves as supportive of family, faith, and freedom (even though they have no real intention to protect these principles).

The Left is being painted as the antithesis of American values, namely family, faith, and freedom β€” which is far from the truth.

Some of the most radical figures to represent the Left, like Sojourner Truth and Stokely Carmichael, were driven by a deep love and commitment to these very values.

Since becoming a mother, I’ve been exposed to more conservative media lately and it’s becoming more clear why we’re continuing to lose elections.

The Left has a public image problem, and refuses to fix it.
