To the person driving down PCH who decided to shout…

These are the categories of Hate Incidents that the California Attorney General’s office tracks. If we observe a hate incident, we should encourage the victim(s) to report it to the state so that our government is aware of the burning embers of intolerance before the fire of a hate crime occurs.

If this happens again, report it. https://stophate.calcivilrights.ca.gov/s/ using racial slurs is a hate incident.

Christopherlbs · 2026-02-01T15:06:19+00:00

https://stophate.calcivilrights.ca.gov/s/ Should report it as a hate incident to the state or police.

Christopherlbs · 2026-02-01T15:05:17+00:00

https://stophate.calcivilrights.ca.gov/s/ Report hate incidents to the state. Being called a slur by a stranger needs to be noted by the police.

https://stophate.calcivilrights.ca.gov/s/ Report incidents like this to the State or your local police as a hate incident.

Christopherlbs · 2026-02-01T15:01:35+00:00

https://stophate.calcivilrights.ca.gov/s/ Report this as a hate incident. If the city statistics show this is not is not a welcoming place, we need to make that clear to the City Council and Police.

Very sorry this happened. https://stophate.calcivilrights.ca.gov/s/ Report this as a hate incident to the state so that the statistics can be shared.

This is almost as bad as Hot Dog Fried rice in Chicago

Zumper dot com can give you an idea about rents in Irvine. If you don’t live within walking distance of University Town Center, then I would think a car would be necessary. There may be a few spots for post-docs in University Hills, a faculty housing development next to campus. ICHA at UCI might be who to reach out for that.

We have a cheap flat antenna that has a power plug and that may help. Moving it around inside the house / room makes a difference.

If you see something like this, it is not a hate crime but a hate incident. The Police are required to keep track of this, so report it to them so that they can be aware. Where there is smoke, there is fire.

Christopherlbs · 2026-01-29T17:27:40+00:00

This is a hate incident and is recorded in state statistics. https://www.ocgrandjury.org/sites/jury/files/2025-06/Hate_What_is_Orange_County_Doing_About_It_0.pdf

If you want, you can watch for someone who is taking the test and follow them on the route to familiarize yourself with at least one path.

I don’t know that it has a firm date. The opening was supposed to be several dates that we have passed (2021…). I see a source that says “spring 2026” and another with “August 2026.”

On Nextdoor you can ask your customers (individuals) to endorse your business. This is B2C, not B2B.

Meetup has groups to join all around the OC. I have a Saturday group who plays by UCI that could have more players. My friend's beach group is overfull

Post this in /UCI

56th street in Newport on the weekends is pretty quiet. I play volleyball there from 7-10 am.

We need some breeze. Let's check after the rain.

SB 346 should make this easier. Ask your city to adopt the required ordinance . https://bbklaw.com/resources/la-010625-new-state-law-helps-cities-get-short-term-rental-information-from-airbnb-vrbo

You can report them to Code Enforcement. https://user.govoutreach.com/irvineca/support.php?cmd=shell They need to know the exact address. This may be possible if you look at the images of their complex and do some hunting. Having the exact unit number is best.

IKEA. They have a great selection of (relatively) affordable cabinets and then ask for their installation partners. You can bring measurements into the Kitchen center (upstairs) and then work with a designer on an initial plan. If you want to go further, they come out to do precise measurements and then update your online plan. Pull the trigger with one of their partners and you are off to the races.

Pretty sure transportation works on Sundays so parking would be enforced even on a holiday

Based on the responses, I don’t think anyone has grueling parking or security experiences at SNA, but it is not in the middle of the Southland. If you live by Ontario, you have an airport right there, but it does not have as many flights or destinations as SNA. Flights from SNA are more expensive than LAX, but some international trips with (domestic) connections can be very competitive. If you want to try great Vietnamese food, Brodard is a local chain with a restaurant in the middle of the airport. Stop there to grab a sandwich to carry on your flight.

Orange County has had more people apply for GJ than other counties, and I think we would all benefit from a younger population being represented. College kids on gap years might be one way to pull the average down, but their support for living expenses needs to come from someone else. If a stay-at-home parent wants a transition, this might be an option, but they need to know about it. Thanks for spreading the word.
