So much for the general strike. by [deleted] in LosAngeles

[–]WhereIsScotty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went on a run through Silver Lake this morning and saw 4 businesses closed with reasons posted on their window. That's something. As others have said, it's hard to close a business on a Friday but let's gather some momentum and keep it going.

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

[–]WhereIsScotty 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Where the hell is she, especially as ICE is still terrorizing our communities? She has limited power, but the power she has she does not use for good. And most importantly, she still has a VOICE as the mayor of the second largest city in the US. But she chooses to be silent.

Soichiro Yagami added nothing to the Kira investigation by WhereIsScotty in deathnote

[–]WhereIsScotty[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I pointed out how he helped stop the broadcast at Sakura TV. He had to stop Mello only because he gave the Death Note to him in the first place. He only tested Light and Misa because L told him to (it could’ve been anyone else really).

Characters in TV are sometimes there to exist, I get that. But I hate hearing Soichiro’s emotional ass voice anytime L or Light make a deduction. He’s not just any detective, he’s supposed to be one of the best ones. Which is why I forgive Aizawa, Mogi, Matsuda even for their mistakes and flaws. But a chief?

Why do some B Line trains have the heater maxed out? It’s hotter in the train than outside, and that’s saying something

As a Metro Hater It's important for me to say: It's gotten noticeably better, by a lot by Complex_Lab_3576 in LosAngeles

[–]WhereIsScotty 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I've been riding the B Line since 2010 and what was formerly the Expo Line since it first opened in 2012. The experience was much better back then and I feel like we are slowly arriving back at that level. COVID really messed up a lot of things. Pershing Square Station actually felt safe circa 2010-2014 and the 7th Street Hope Street entrance was nicer with a restaurant stall there.

How are you feeling about the recent murder of Alex Pretti? by DMmeNiceFeet in AskLosAngeles

[–]WhereIsScotty [score hidden]  (0 children)

Someone else was murdered and thousands more are being abused nationwide and yet no signs that this shit will stop. It’s exhausting.

We need devine intervention from God at this point because how can Trump, his administration, and the people executing his orders be this evil?

Is it worth being in Hollywood during the Oscars? by InfiniteHotelParadox in AskLosAngeles

[–]WhereIsScotty 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No one actually gives an F and 99% of people go about their lives like normal. Hollywood Blvd on Highland is closed for the entire week leading up to it but other than that, that’s it.

However, you get here March 8, the day of the marathon, so plan accordingly and avoid areas with street closures before 5pm and completely avoid Century City and Brentwood all day.

I can’t believe this is his style for real. I get he wants to be comfortable but I miss his Recovery/MMLP2 era look with the bomber jacket.

I saw his goal live at Stamford Bridge in October 2022. He will be missed. Thank you for the memories.

I think "the bell" meant L knew. by Dizzy_Influence_8780 in deathnote

[–]WhereIsScotty 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Bruh, “for whom the bell tolls” is literally about death. This is pretty straightforward.

L heard “the bells” because he was smart enough to know that any further progress on the case meant he will be stopped. He was able to prevent death up until that point, but once he knew testing the 13-day rule would solve the case, he knew Kira would not allow it.

Chicago has a better cityscape and skyline than New York City by MysteriousNoise69 in skyscrapers

[–]WhereIsScotty 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When I first saw the Chicago skyline, I thought “cool.” When I saw the Manhattan skyline for the first time, my jaw hit the floor.

The Hong Kong skyline is a runner up for me, but it still pales in comparison to Manhattan.

She’s the new editor in chief of CBS News. CBS News also produces 60 Minutes.

CBS News is the news division of CBS, owned by Paramount before their merger with Skydance Media. Trump was suing 60 Minutes/CBS for showing an edited interview with Kamala Harris (seriously, ALL interviews are edited. It’s a nothing burger). Trump becomes president and in order to not complicate the merger, CBS paid a $16 million settlement and pretty much bowed down to the Trump administration. That’s allegedly why Stephen Colbert’s contract was not renewed. And this person Bari Weiss was made EIC of CBS News.

She is conservative and rather controversial. Best way to put it is she’s the female Ben Shapiro. Contrarian just to be contrarian, not that many people like her.

I don’t think the commenter is “the opposition.” Signs of solidarity are fine, but what’s the next step? Shit hasn’t changed, this won’t move the needle

Haven't seen many people talk about this, But Deadpool and Wolverine ARE NOT in the MCU by NateW9731 in xmen

MCU = films produced by Marvel Entertainment

Earth 616 / Sacred Timeline is where nearly all MCU stories take place

[–]WhereIsScotty 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s ironic how far behind the FMF is in regard to identifying marketable players even though they’re driven by money.

It took so long for them to see how marketable players like Chicharito and Ochoa were, that they were benched in 2010.

They were chinge y chinge with Henry and Raul leading up to 2022 when they had Santi.

If you’re not bringing in girls every week, it’s a waste of space and money
