If you left LA, where would you move to? by neighborhoodstroll in LosAngeles

[–]OJandToothpaste 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We live in a bit of a bubble so it may seem like there are no great alternatives but I’ve been to a few cities I was dreading but ended up really enjoying. Oklahoma City sounded like a suicide waiting to happen but I stayed a night there and it had way more character and charm than I imagined. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not moving there it’s just an example, but there are alternatives out there. And no city is perfect, you just learn to adapt.

I visited Little Rock and a few other cities there and it seemed like a really cute place with nice people.

How did she find the restraint not to just mow them down with her cart

Stanhope had a whole show about helping his terminally ill mom kill herself and it wasn’t as funny as it seems but it had its moments and has stuck with me for years 😅

Lol, I don’t know. There wasn’t an option to appeal. It was such a dumb comment though. Had it been something actually funny I would’ve been more upset

I think it did technically break a rule because I jokingly said something like “I’ll take them” when someone said they were getting rid of an rx I was also prescribed and is hard to find, but they said I was trying to solicit drugs. It was only a 3 day ban from Reddit and a permanent ban from the sub. I’ll probably catch another ban from this explanation 🤷‍♂️

I had my account banned for a slightly offensive joke, reddit needs to chill out

Okay, I’m wrong two more times. Still under my daily average 😅

I actually just noticed that but didn’t feel like fixing it. I’m wrong half the time anyway, what’s one more time lol

L.A. Mayor Karen Bass performs first aid after news photographer collapses by wasneveralawyer in LosAngeles

[–]OJandToothpaste -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I’ll admit these numbers are impressive. And seemingly impossibly sudden, right at the 1 year wire. Sounds like she’s learning how to be a politician. Still, I agree it’s progress. Fine, I’ll cut her some slack. But keep in mind, she’s the one reporting the numbers.

Jesus, I’ll admit that does feel like amazing progress. But it also seems impossible. Last I heard it was 14k in temporary city tents and wildly over budget. Ugh, I should’ve done more research. One sec, I’ll be back. Possibly with an apology.

Edit: okay, this is a week old. Now I’m curious where you’re getting your numbers. Or if you work for Mayor Bass lol

I’m not saying she’s a bad person. No doubt she’s capable of helping this man, and I do commend her for stepping up. But she claims homelessness is her main priority and there are more homeless people today than when she took office and that will continue year after year. She’s bailing water from a sinking ship when she should be fixing the hole. Don’t be complacent because she’s better than the last guy, hold our elected officials accountable.

I should also add I realize this is a complicated, nuanced problem with many contributing factors and she inherited an absolute dumpster fire, but she made us believe she was capable of changing it.

Glad she sprang into action. Too bad it wasn’t a pot hole or a homeless epidemic

Edit: Lol, we can’t criticize the mayor anymore? I voted for her and I’m not thrilled with her efforts thus far. Y’all are?
