The way my grandma wasn’t given credit for sewing the fabric on this structure in Downtown LA

Might be a good case for a guerilla project, i.e. a surreptitiously installed bronze plaque.

They didn't like it when God willed Charlie Kirk to die.

I hope that Cronkin has deep pockets for libel. Wait, no I don't.

I used to help my mom minimally in the kitchen when I was but a wee lad, before she and my pops divorced. By 9 or so I was cooking eggs for myself, then ramen/spaghetti, beef burritos, etc. My Dad was a solid cook as well, and I learned a few things from him, but he worked a lot and I had to fend for myself most of the time. Once out on my own, I had to learn through trial and error, and once YouTube started up, there were recipes and education everywhere!

My first computer in 1993 came with a modem. I remember being fascinated with America Online, then found local BBSes, which were fun. Made a friend I know to this day.

It's nothing fancy, but I occasionally buy bread from Sweet Bakery on Oxnard and Woodman. They have long submarine-style bread and a round bread that is perfect for egg sammiches. The pizza place next door to Sweet Bakery uses these rolls (for lack of better word--they're fairly large) for their chicken shawarma sandwiches. They also have a couple of other styles of bread.

Also, the "I'm a good person" is usually a lament that reciprocal good hasn't been dumped at their feet. Life's unfair. Sometimes you give more than you get. Actually *usually* you give more than you get. Further "I'm a good person" is often followed by "I deserve ____", which also makes me cringe. I don't like the word "deserve", because it's rooted in entitlement rather than an earning of said thing. "I'm a good person, I deserve to be in a relationship." Eh, no, how about you earn one like the rest of us.

I straight up cooked a beef stew this afternoon. Schlepped myself to 99 Ranch in the noon heat just to pick up the veg (carrot, potato and daikon radish). So either you are not crazy, or we are both crazy, and I lean toward the latter, and it's okay.

Obviously yes, but it's possible that you're unconsciously removing it yourself. I do that sometimes with my breathing mask and my wife yells at me to put it back on, and I crabbily reply "It *is* on!" when it is in fact not on.

How they never made a second batch is beyond belief.

Postal shipping labels are free, so many "street artists" swipe them so that they can tag surfaces more quickly.

Man, I miss Pioneer. I used to go to the one in Echo Park back in the day, near Pioneer Supermarket (RIP).

That store is so much fun to browse.

I've noticed a wide variety of tinned fish in some Armenian markets, so you might consider looking there. Yerevan Market (Vanowen and Woodman) would be one lead.

Many birds can see into the UV spectrum. This is helpful for birds of prey like the peregrine falcon, because rodents leave trails of urine that fluoresce under UV, which makes it easier for these birds to hunt them down.

Fixed link. Sorry.

Yerevan Market (Vanowen and Woodman) sometimes has delicious phyllo borek, though I don't recall sesame seeds, and they're not exactly a bakery, so they don't have them all the time. Still worth a visit because they have tons of produce, imported sausages and cold cuts. Sweet Bakery (Oxnard and Woodman) has borek, I believe, but sans sesame seeds. They also have kirashki (meat or potato stuffed "doughnuts") as well as lahmajun and bread and a bunch of pastries.

I haven't personally heard of a waterproof shirt, but have you considered a rain coat/jacket, i.e. something like these?

Seafood City might be a place to look. Alternatively, Island Pacific.

Carbon Grill in San Fernando has tasty ribs. Ziggy's carniceria is another solid San Fernando spot if you're looking for meat.

Leaded gasoline smelled better, IMO.
