Malinowski, now known on TikTok as “Lieutenant Dan,” recently moved to Florida and lives on his 20-foot sailboat at the Tampa Bay Harbor. He said he has been homeless for the past 10 years — living on the streets, on his scooter and now on his sailboat.

As officials encouraged western Florida residents to evacuate from Hurricane Milton’s path, several folks stuck around and posted about the storm online—for better or worse.
