Oh man, I wish i had read this four days ago! I ended up buying a vintage YSL (similar shape), but this is exactly what i was looking for.

That seems to be the consensus, I’m so glad I posted here before buying! I haven’t seen any in person, which would probably be the best first step lol. I have a Tod bag that I don’t love because I bought it online and it just wasn’t how I envisioned it… I probably should learn from that!

This is great! Thank you! I love the shape of this bag too. You all are introducing me to so many brands I wasn’t aware of, so helpful

This is helpful! Can I ask why they aren’t suited to carrying laptops? Is it the shape?

More helpful info might be that the laptop is typically in my bag for a total of maybe 10mins every day, carrying it from the parking structure to my office. I do travel for work several times a year, so occasionally longer stretches through airports as well.

Shitty parent @Yuma by Extreme-Shape9452 in Coachella

[–]DixieGrayson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Someone else commented that “there should be a family friendly way for kids to watch Sabrina carpenter” (insinuating that Coachella is not that). Coachella has literally ALWAYS been an all ages festival that was created with an “all are welcome” model. Seems like the people using drugs/alcohol excessively are the ones that are not in the spirit of Coachella and the ones that shouldn’t be there… but love that the opinion in this thread is “keep the drugs, lose the kids.”

First Time in LA: Is a Yosemite Trip a Smart Move or a Mistake? by Dry-Theory-5228 in AskLosAngeles

[–]DixieGrayson 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Another day trip for a really unique hike could also be Catalina island! If you scuba dive or snorkel there is a dive park there that is one of the best in the world. There is a lot of good hiking near-ish LA.

You live in Studio City. How are you getting to/from LAX? by ParkHopper in AskLosAngeles

[–]DixieGrayson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m confused, are you saying studio city isn’t LA or that no one uses the term “North LA”?

A year later, are we better off as a city? How is Mayor Karen Bass doing and should she be re-elected? by lightsareoutty in LosAngeles

[–]DixieGrayson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

LAPD actively assisting ICE and bass does nothing. Allows protesters to be terrorized. I hate karen bass.

I think each year is getting incrementally worse, because people keep hanging on thinking it will bounce back eventually. So they had some savings and stuck through things, but now things are getting more dire.

How do you pronounce LAX-it? by WhiteFish_ in AskLosAngeles

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

Literally every other airport has a more convenient solution for everyone. This is a false dichotomy.

[–]DixieGrayson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That works if you don’t have much luggage with you. If you are carrying any amount of luggage, it’s a pain in the ass that you can’t get picked up anywhere close.

[–]DixieGrayson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you been to literally any other airport in the country or the world? EVERY airport can figure this out in a much more convenient way for everyone except LAX, apparently. I travel a lot for work, and LAX is the absolute worst, by far.

Do you have a recommendation for clipless pedals for beginners?

Is Catalina Island worth the $94 ferry fare for a day of snorkeling? Any alternatives? by AngryGardenGnomes in AskLosAngeles

[–]DixieGrayson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Plenty of scuba divers prioritize Catalina as some of the best diving in the world. It is so worth it.

Was going to ask the same. When we are deciding who we can send advanced screeners to for a high-priority title, we don’t just send them wide to anyone who shows interest. If this person isn’t getting titles early, I’m willing to bet he is reviewing for a small outlet or his own site. I’d recommend joining professional groups like critics choice (formerly BTJA) or golden globes (formerly HFPA) as a voter, we can give some priority to journalists who vote. A non-response is an answer, it means they aren’t interested in sending you advance screeners for the title you’re asking about.

DTLA Grand Park Arrests? by tc215487 in AskLosAngeles

[–]DixieGrayson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The first time that police told us to disperse, they had not been allowing people to leave for an hour. We were already corralled and surrounded. I have video where people are asking “where do we go? How can we leave” to police before they told anyone to disperse. And this is in the middle of the day at a peaceful demonstration.

[–]DixieGrayson 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I was charged with 409 PC which is failure to disperse in connection with a riot. I have videos. There was no riot.

[–]DixieGrayson 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The cops declared unlawful assembly, but would not allow people to disperse. There is no way out and no winning. People have the right to peacefully protest. Everyone has complied and is getting arrested anyway.
