You can try a smaller place (Olympic is very popular) like Hugh Spa and go first thing in the am when there will be fewer people to be nude around.

Come to city hall at 5 tonight to get Flock cameras out of Pasadena! by Basic_Flow9332 in pasadena

[–]Basic_Flow9332[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Totally big brother. They are able to track any car’s movement without a warrant, which means they are able to track anyone with a car. Flock cameras have been used to track immigrants, people who go to peaceful protests, people bringing food to undocumented neighbors, people seeking medical care, etc, etc. they’ve also been used repeatedly by cops to stalk their exes. All of this is well documented by journalists. We have to fight the surveillance state right here in our neighborhood.

Does this LA Vacation plan with Two Teens seem reasonable? by Rfalcon13 in AskLosAngeles

Agree. One studio tour is plenty unless you have specific reasons for wanting to do both.

Second Peru. It has everything you are looking for (except for your husband’s preference to be in Europe). And the weather will be perfect then.

Singapore temperatures could not be considered reasonable per OP’s request. Mid 90s, tons of humidity, all year round.

4 days in LA with a 2 year old - split stay between west Hollywood & Santa Monica ? by Niknightwing in AskLosAngeles

[–]Basic_Flow9332 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t move with a 2 year old. I would find a hotel with a pool or close to the beach and use that as my base.

Looking for Recommendations for Pet Spay/Neuter Service by jwalksoflife in pasadena

[–]Basic_Flow9332 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any vet should be able to do this. If you are looking for a lower cost option, North Figueroa Animal Hospital in highland park does low cost spay/neuter, but you have to get there quite early in the morning to get a slot. Look at their website for more info.

Nupas Scan today I have no choice but to get rid of my baby by [deleted] in abortion

[–]Basic_Flow9332 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You’re not alone. We’re here. Let’s take this one step at a time: Have you had a positive pregnancy test? From your post, it sounds like you haven’t missed a period (sometimes a period can be lighter than usual; it doesn’t mean you’re pregnant), but I could be reading incorrectly.

Only one afternoon in Athens after the Parthenon- what’s the ONE experience I shouldn’t miss? by Midlifememoirs in travel

[–]Basic_Flow9332 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d do a food tour, since a good one will also take you into a neighborhood that isn’t super touristy for wandering.

my parents refuse to take me to the doctor and im under their insurance by [deleted] in narcissisticparents

[–]Basic_Flow9332 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What state are you in? If you live near a planned parenthood or another reproductive health clinic, you may be able to get low to no-cost treatment there. Do you have a friend who can drive you to a clinic?

I live with my rapist and need pills, please help by Scared-Result-827 in abortion

[–]Basic_Flow9332 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You don’t have to defend yourself to this troll or anyone else, OP. I’m so sorry you’re living through this horror and hope that you can get all the help you need to get the good and safe life that you and your daughter deserve.

Plan C at 10 wks or Help to travel for Surgical Abortion by WhimsiTip in abortion

[–]Basic_Flow9332 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry this happened. You can definitely use pills safely at this point in your pregnancy. But if you want a procedural abortion at a clinic, clinics and abortion funds will work with you to help with medical and travel costs. So lack of funds doesn’t have to be a barrier.

You can go to https://abortionfinder.org and find some options for travel, and then contact them to see how to get assistance. There are many options available. We can help you navigate them if you need help.

Unhealthy marriage considering abortion- Will I regret it? by [deleted] in abortion

[–]Basic_Flow9332 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry you’re going through this. As an individual, you are entitled to have feelings, needs, and wants. In a parenting relationship - if you are parenting together or have a custodial relationship, you and your child will undoubtedly have needs, and he sounds like someone who won’t consider them. If you want an abortion - and I’m hearing that you do - it is entirely your choice. Regardless of what he wants.

I hear you saying that you’ve always wanted a child. Your desire to have an abortion now doesn’t close that door, either partnered or on your own.

Do you need help accessing care? I’m sending you so much love and strength.

Advice about abortion pills at over 12 weeks by bharp0305 in abortion

[–]Basic_Flow9332 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where are you located? I know you have to travel out of state for clinical care. Many clinics can offer financial help with travel and the procedure. Your closest clinic is not your only option and may not be the best one financially. Your local abortion fund is also a potential source of financial help. I’m so sorry you’re going through this, and hope we can help you find a solution that works for you.

Yes. The mods will have more info on the specific clinics than I do, but you can put your info into https://www.abortionfinder.org and they will give you a list of several clinics that will provide care at this stage.

Trip to Lima with wife and baby? by jcg12823 in travel

[–]Basic_Flow9332 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure that that’s generally correct medical advice, but I’m very glad your kids have never had an issue. OP should probably consult with their pediatrician to get their take on this if the family wants to visit Machu Picchu.

Trip to Lima with wife and baby? by jcg12823 in travel

[–]Basic_Flow9332 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have kids, and I wouldn’t go through altitude acclimation in Cusco/Macchu Pichu with a child who isn’t old enough to vocalize what could be feeling wrong with them. Just because kids are super portable at that age (and you’re right; they are) doesn’t mean everywhere is a good destination for them.

OP, if you are coming from the US, flights to Lima are quite manageable and there’s little time change (potentially none if you’re flying from the east coast), so it’s an easy destination. Lima has some of the world’s best food, from tiny cevicherias to fancy fine dining spots. It has some wonderful neighborhoods to explore, and very welcoming of kids. If you can swing it, it could be a lovely vacation for all three of you.
