Key Lime Pie

Cameron — Key limes and Florida go together like peanut butter and jelly. Right now, Florida's state dessert is the Key Lime Pie. But new legislation has been introduced that would make Strawberry Shortcake the official state dessert. The Conch Republic Key Lime Pie Council started their petition because they know how culturally important this dessert is in Florida. They're hoping you will join them in calling on the Florida State House and Senate to vote to keep the Key Lime Pie as the state dessert. Keep Key Lime Pie As Florida's Dessert 2,197 have signed Conch Republic Key Lime Pie Council's petition. Let's get to 2,500! Sign now with a click WHEREAS: Senator Burgess has filed a bill to designate Strawberry Shortcake as Florida's Official Dessert. WHEREAS: Key Lime Pie is a native Floridian dessert that originated in the Florida Keys, and Strawberry Shortcake is a non-native dessert that originated in Europe. WHEREAS: Key Lime Pie was designated the Official State Pie of Florida in 2006 and has served proudly as the de facto State Dessert for 16 years, and Strawberry Shortcake has never received a state designation. WHEREAS: Florida has prepared at least four world record Key Lime Pies and served the mammoth pies to Key West, Boston, Atlanta, the Governor in Tallahassee, and Good Morning America, and Florida has prepared only one world record Strawberry Shortcake, served only to people in Plant City. WHEREAS: The current world record Key Lime Pie title is held by Florida. The Philippines holds the world record Strawberry Shortcake title. WHEREAS: Key Lime Pie reminds people of sun, sand, and tropical breezes, and Strawberry Shortcake reminds people of an early 1980s cartoon character owned by a Canadian corporation. WHEREAS: Key Lime Pie is celebrated in song by Kenny Chesney with the lyric: Big white sail / Red sunset / Lobster tail and don't forget / My, my, my – my Key Lime Pie, and Strawberry Shortcake is celebrated in song by R. Kelly with the lyrics: Band-Aids for my knees / Girl set the table / Now let me feast / Strawberry Shortcake. WHEREAS: Key Lime Pie is engrained in the American presidencies of Taft, Hoover, Truman, Eisenhower, Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan, Clinton, Bush, Obama, and Trump, and Strawberry Shortcake is not. WHEREAS: Key Lime Pie and Strawberry Shortcake are both delicious. NOW, THEREFORE: BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA: STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE SHALL BE DESIGNATED FLORIDA'S OFFICIAL CAKE, AND KEY LIME PIE SHALL REMAIN FLORIDA'S OFFICIAL PIE. TOGETHER THEY CAN SHARE THE LIMELIGHT AS FLORIDA'S OFFICIAL DESSERTS. If Senator Burgess and the residents of Plant City contest this bill, the dispute shall be settled under the official bi-laws of the Conch Republic requiring a duel at high noon between the Vice Mayors of Key West and Plant City, each armed with only their favorite dessert. Prepared by: David L. Sloan, Paul Menta, and Sam Kaufman, Key West, Florida. Sign now with a click Visit petition page At Change.org, we believe in the voice of everyday people.

TikTok

Cameron — Nothing prevents a kid who is scrolling on TikTok from seeing mature content. There are several content creators on TikTok that do not cater their content to kids. They usually put "18+" or "not for kids" in their bio, but there is no setting they can click to prevent kids from seeing their content. Casey started their petition because they know TikTok can easily create a feature that would block children from seeing mature content. Add your name to tell TikTok to keep their app safe for everyone. Tiktok: Add the option to not show content and account to minors 1,402 have signed Casey Seth's petition. Let's get to 1,500! Sign now with a click There are a lot of creators on tiktok that do not cater their content to kids. There's a lot of creators that put 18+ and "content not for kids" and the like in their bios. But there is not way to actually bar minors from viewing their content,  as well interacting with it. By adding the option for creators to opt their profiles and content being displayed to kids, this will elevate the platforms safety, regarding minors. This will protect kids from viewing content that they should not see. This will also provide creators with the peace of mind, for those that choose to utilize the feature, that their content is being viewed only by their intended audience: adults. What happens if we have enough signatures?  Tiktok will finally see the need and desire for this function.  It will also force tiktok to pay closer attention to peoples ages. Creators will have peace of mind, that their content is going to the correct demographic.  Kids will not be exposed to content that isn't meant for them. What happens if this petition fails? Kids will continue to have vertually free reign on tiktok. Creators will continue to get frustrated with continuously removing and blocking minors that shouldn't be on their profile in the first place. Its great that tiktok can appeal to such a broad range of people. But we need a greater amount of control when it comes to the minor demographic.  Sign now with a click Visit petition page At Change.org, we believe in the voice of everyday people.
