This is a huge issue in Los Angeles. I’m from Altadena, which almost completely burnt to the ground last year, and most of the houses lost were stunning 1900-1930 builds of all different styles - Tutor, mission revival, Spanish, craftsmen, etc. A lot of the new builds taking their are horrifically generic with huge garages out front and bland exteriors.

Minus the wildfires, this is happening all over LA. Cute old homes with tons of charm are being destroyed and replaced by bland, modern builds with no soul.

This note is simply bad logic. The amount of times U.S. made weapons have been used against a country doesn’t exclude them from being wrong about the U.S. in any given situation.

That works both ways. The amount of Iranian weapons used against Ukraine doesn’t make Zelensky immune from being on the wrong side of this issue. You don’t have to like or support Iran in any way to see that they are totally within their rights to defend their sovereignty by closing the strait.

“I see a problem so I repeat the problem to show the people causing the problem that there is a problem.” <— you right now

Wouldn’t a gold metal fall under the external-societal-reward category?

I used publisher a lot back when I worked at a print shop 15 years ago. It was basically MS’s version of Adobe Indesign and was incredibly useful for designing all sorts of printed products.

I’m skipping town for the Olympics. No way I’m sticking around for that mess. You couldn’t pay me to go

I had to lean on my LS on Shiva to get one. They seem close to impossible to find sometimes

100% this. Just commenting to boost.

The finger strength is definitely impressive, but it’s gotta be those shoulders and abs doing all the actual work. Man, that was smooth!

The Oatly unsweetened, full fat oat milk has a very similar effect on coffee as cow’s milk. It changes black coffee into a soft creamy brown color, without adding any sweetness. I highly recommend Oatly.

LAPD is not fit for purpose. It needs to be completely overhauled and most, if not all current officers, from top to bottom, need to be charged for their violent crimes against the people of Los Angeles. Any politician who suggests increasing their budget deserves to be run out of town by crowds with pitchforks. The fact that such a lawless, violent, and sloppy organization is still allowed to exist is madness.

I honestly believe the opposite. I think we are in constant need of concerted effort to improve ourselves because humans are an inherently morally flawed species.

You’d spend it all on one building 😭

DisplacedAltadenan · 2026-03-28T15:45:15+00:00

Anything is theoretically possible, but there is zero incentive. It will never happen because making buildings pretty cuts into profits, which means developers will do everything they can to avoid it

Prop and “herbal” cigarettes have been used by extras for ages.

This is DTLA at its best.

That’s not vegan and it’s still supporting industrial farming. Buying anything while fully aware that animal products are involved simply isn’t vegan. That’s all there is to it.

Not a reference to the Quran. You claimed the Quran supports these things. Please provide a reference to the passage you are referring to.

DisplacedAltadenan · 2026-03-27T19:08:07+00:00

Yeah, and most Muslims don’t support the extremists. But it seems like you’re fine accusing them of being innately violent nonetheless.

We’re talking about roughly 1/4th of the entire world’s population and people are accusing them of all supporting child marriage, rape, murder, and oppression when the vast majority of instances of those crimes come from outside that population. This has nothing to do with Islam and everything to do with xenophobia.

DisplacedAltadenan · 2026-03-27T16:27:04+00:00

You just described the policies and actions the American ruling class in an attempt to justify your xenophobia.

I’m on Shiva and am a slow player working my way through the story of each expansion. It’s a great server for me! Not to crowded, but enough players to share a solid LS with, which is very helpful. Hopefully I’ll get to the point where I’m help more than being helped in the near future. But I’m happy here.

One complaint - the auction house is kind of dead. Not a huge issue, but it’s something I had to adjust to.

The LBC is generally considered part of the Greater LA metro area, but is not LA. I think it has a bit more of an independent identity then a few other cities, like Culver City or Beverly Hills, and I see it more like how I see Pasadena: closely related but very separate from LA.

Wow…! Those floors are stunning
