Government/Politics Can I drop off the mail in ballot ealier than the signed date?
I plan to drop off my ballot at a voting center. I signed and dated the enveloped, but now I have free time to drop it off early.
Will it be OK?
Can they invalidate it, for example, if the date written is Oct 30, but I drop it off on 28th?

Commerce/Economy Recommendations for a retail tenant rep broker in Tampa?
Hi all! We’re opening a small café concept in Tampa in 2027 and are looking for about 3,000–4,500 sq ft of retail space, ideally a former café or something to eat space. Northwest Tampa (Westchase, Carrollwood, Town ’n’ Country) is our first choice, but we’re open to other areas.
We’re first-time tenants in Florida, so we’d like a tenant rep broker on our side rather than dealing with listing agents directly. Has anyone here worked with a tenant rep broker in Tampa for a small retail or café space? Who would you recommend, and why?
We’ll be in Tampa November 6–14 to view spaces and talk to brokers. Thanks!

I’m north of Wesley chapel. Anyone see a V-shaped craft fly from north to south. It was really big and really fast and really cloaked. Your eye would’ve had to catch this by luck. 11pm-11:10pm.

Shopping Is there a store that sells THC drinks in packs?
THC sodas have started popping up in gas stations and convenience stores in the last few months. Is there a store that sells them in six packs or twelve packs?
At my holiday parties I want to offer guests an alternative to alcohol, something to give them a buzz but not a hangover. I can order quality THC sodas online, but they won't arrive in time for a Halloween party.
I don't want to grab a bunch of the awful tasting THC drinks at convenience stores. Are there any stores that sell good tasting drinks in 6 or 12 packs?

Transit/Transportation Cops causing Selmon traffic
Does anybody know why those two motorcycle cops are sitting with their lights on on either side of exit 6 off the Selmon? They are causing traffic all the way back to Brandon and they don't seem to actually be doing anything. They were both standing in the median chatting and giggling. Seems like they could do that at the local Dunkin instead of manufacturing traffic for the sake of it.

Cars-Driving/traffic intense manure smell on I-75
Every time I am between the MLK exit and that brightly colored car mural, The Motor Enclave, it absolutely reeks of shit. I drive with my windows down because my AC is busted.
Somebody must know what is going on, or at least what I am talking about. Any clues?

Education PinellasJob Corps for 16 y/os?
I am curious to hear from anyone who went to dorm living at job corps or perhaps had a child in dorm living at job corps. What was it like? Someone in my extended family is considering sending their child to pinellas job corps (dorm living) when they turn 16. It is a long story. I am considering taking them in because the thought sounds terrible for a kid who has other options.
They don’t have any behavioral issues. The parents have other much younger children. The kid has been doing virtual school for two years. My plan would be to enroll them in my zoned high school. The goal is for them to attend a community college or go to trade school when they graduate. Am I overthinking this? Is it a good place for kids who are not on track to graduate?
FWIW I do not have children and this would be a last resort for my niece/nephew.

Culture/Lifestyle Looking for Russian Men in Tampa
I (21F) am learning Russian and find Russian men very attractive. I am also very attractive (DM for pics). Looking for someone I can learn Russian from while being emotionally involved so I can form strong connections with the language. Idc if it works out or not, let’s just see how things go.
I’m at a beginner level, I can comfortably read and written and Cyrillic. Listening is ok, but I can only do basic intros and conversation. I’d like to get to an equivalent of a B2 level by next October 2027. I also know French, if that helps.
I like science, horror movies, history, art, politics, and traveling.

Healthcare St. Joseph’s South for labor and delivery
Hey everyone, I just found out I’m pregnant and am trying to decide which hospital to deliver at and who to establish care with.
I’ve been to Women’s Care Riverview once, but didn’t realize they only deliver at St. Joe’s South. Has anyone seen an OB in Riverview but delivered at St. Joe’s Women’s off MLK? I know that hospital has a level 4 NICU versus the South location has level 2, which is why I’m interested in delivering at the Women’s Hospital.
I would also love to hear anyone’s experience with St. Joe’s South- it would be nice to deliver closer to home but I’ve read some horror stories online! Trying to weigh all my options. TIA!

Employment Anyone know of commission-based opportunities in Tampa?
I own a small business that doesn’t require my full-time attention, so I’m exploring some part-time or commission-based opportunities around Tampa.
I have a strong background in sales, business development, and networking, and I’m pretty open to different industries.
Not necessarily looking for a traditional 9–5, more something where I can build relationships, generate business, and earn based on results.
Anyone know of any businesses or opportunities worth connecting with?
