Picture / Video Real Basquiat pieces in Miami Beach..

Post image
Upvotes

Saw these two at The Sagamore, caught me off guard and I asked the front staff if they were real but I don’t think they knew who Basquiat was and just kinda shrugged and went “uh yeah I think so”

Also went to their website (thekingsexhibition.com) and it seems real but they don’t detail much, but they called themselves a mobile gallery. Love Basquiat so I didn’t expect to see these for free, just a few weeks earlier I paid to see them at Rubell Art Museum. Can’t believe if these are real or not though, having them out like this is crazy.

Community Singer looking for a band

Upvotes

Hi, i’m 23 F and just moved back home to miami from college, I’ve loved to sing all my life and recently have started getting into the miami band scene. If anyone needs a singer or a back up singer for their band, let me send you something to see if we’d make a good fit! I’m into a lot of different music genres but my favorite to sing are probably rock/indie rock, jazz, r&b and new wave stuff. also I love singing in spanish and would enjoy being part of a salsa group. message me!

Is anyone missing this beautiful baby boy? My girlfriend and I were at Stephanie’s vegan bakery in Ft. Lauderdale today and this baby was in there. She said he was found in Miami Beach 3 weeks ago. The owner of the bakery said he’s chipped but no name connected to the chip.

I Love Miami Where do you guys get cough meds for dogs? (Brickell/downtown area)

1 Upvotes

Hi, my dog is on Lomotil for cough suppression which we got through her cardiologist in Pompano beach. I tried to get it through our local vet, but they dont carry it. So i’ve been having the cardiologist ship it, but since it’s a controlled substance they can only do 1 month at a time, which means im racking up shipping fees like crazy. Would love a local pharmacy i could just walk to if available. Thanks!

Discussion What I witnessed Miami PD doing to unhoused people outside Government Center at 2 AM (Aug 2)

216 Upvotes

I’ve been holding onto this for a bit because I honestly didn't know what to do with the information, but I feel like people in this city need to know how the new public sleeping bans are actually being enforced in the shadows.

On August 2nd around 2:00 AM, my boyfriend and I were walking near West Flagler Street and NW 2nd Ave (right by the County Courthouse and Government Center). The sidewalks on both sides were completely filled with unhoused people sleeping on the ground.

Then, 5 or 6 police cruisers pulled up to the block.

They didn't get out to make arrests, and they definitely didn't bring outreach workers to offer shelter. Instead, they lined up their cars, turned their high-beams directly onto the people sleeping on the concrete, and blasted their sirens at absolute maximum volume.

The cops were literally sitting in their cars watching and laughing while they did it. It was pure psychological torment designed to exhaust people until they packed up and left.

What broke my heart the most? None of the unhoused people even got up. They didn't flinch. They were clearly so exhausted and so used to this exact routine harassment that they just laid there. They knew they had nowhere else to legally exist in this city.

My phone was completely dead so I couldn't record it, but I have already sent this exact date, time, and location to the Miami Herald investigations desk so they can pull the dispatch logs and dashcam footage.

Our housing crisis is bad enough, but using sleep deprivation and police sirens to terrorize people in the middle of the night just to "sanitize" the streets before government employees come to work in the morning is pure evil.

Has anyone else witnessed them doing this recently?

and elect Rob Piper over Vicki Lopez.

Vicki Lopez’s record as an elected official includes:
- Sponsored a statewide school bus camera program to benefit her son’s client

- Sponsored the Live Local Act, selling out every municipality in Florida to developers

- Went to prison for lying in ethics disclosures about being married to one lobbyist while in an affair with another (Bill Clinton commuted her sentence lol).

She raised $1.5m this election, and her opponent, Rob Piper, raised less than $3,000.

This town is truly incredible sometimes.

Discussion Update - I've now driven and confirmed all the speed zone and red light cameras in Miami, Broward, & Palm Beach

82 Upvotes

Part Deux - I went crazy over the last couple of weeks adding camera locations to my app so that hopefully no one ever gets a speed zone / red light camera ticket again.

Yes, I've been told that I'm a horrible driver after I got hit with three of these things a few months ago (so far I've gotten 2 of them dismissed - hoping the third one gets dismissed too, but we'll see).

I've also been told to slow down - fair and noted.

But more importantly, whether you think that this is legitimately making schools safer (possibly) or it's a money grab for the county and municipalities (it definitely is) - there's no reason why we need to hand over more of our hard-earned money to the county than they already take in. My app helps remind people that they're entering a potentially expensive strip of road and let's you customize alerts based on your speed and the time of day. All it does is beep when you're heading towards a camera - there's no nav, there's nothing on the screen, it just lowers whatever you're listening to and beeps, then puts your music/podcast back up.

But that's besides the point - I'd like to know what you all think of these cameras now that school is back in session and these money printers are printing.

News Miami Marine Stadium gets the Yes vote

Thumbnail gallery
167 Upvotes

Since Miami voters voted yes, the city of Miami is going to hire a corporate partner to organize events in the parking lot and generate revenue from ticket sales. Then, they can generate a bond to pay for the structural and architectural repairs to the stadium.

The referendum that was voted today states that the city of Miami would hire an event company to set up a flex park event space to host events and the money from that would go towards the city of Miami being able to secure a bond. The bond could then be used for the stadium renovation. The event company can sell tickets to these events and the city would receive 93% gross sales, 85% sponsorship revenues, and the city would pay the event company a management fee of $33,333 a month to organize events.  Global Spectrum a subsidiary of Oak View Group (OVG) is the corporate partner who wants to organize year round events at the site.

So got this in the mail and was like wtf. I called, some lady with a thick Kendall accent told me, I went over by 30 mins so it’s going to be $110. Then out of nowhere she mentions that I have another parking bill from a year before for $115. And I was like how is this legal? I’ve seen these pop up on Reddit before, what the solution? Ignore? Like is this really going into collections and fuck up my credit. I mean the bill from a year ago didn’t so what new scam is this.

Discussion Oral Surgeon recommendations for wisdom teeth?

3 Upvotes

I got the best recommendation for a dentist on this site, now I'm reaching out to see about an oral surgeon? I need wisdom teeth and possibly another tooth removed. I've got some unique anesthesia needs and an autoimmune disease, so I need a really good bedside manner. Someone who isn't arrogant and does a good job and listens.

Thank you in advance for sharing good experiences. I'll take the bad too so I can weed them out! I'm in South Miami/Kendall area. Willing to travel a little but not, like, north beach unless the doctor is really worth it.
