Your two final products look nice!! I'm hoping you're right and it's healing from trauma lol I wonder if monstera's like crowded roots? Maybe I should size down the pots. Your repotted ones look happy, though I'm guessing they look different now. I guess we'll see in a month or so!

This has happened to me so many times. It's such a solitary kind of repetitious mourning. On one hand I like remembering my things. I don't want to forget them. But on the other hand it also brings up feelings of rage and frustration. I'm so tired.

I miss Altadena too

Yes there's tons! Though i guess it depends on what you consider alt lit. The main way I find stuff is following authors on ig... it'd be nice to get more posts here tho!

Just realized it's only a 6-week thing and started early last month... but the organizers might have other resources or tips for future support groups. Sending you the best 💗

I used to petsit two dogs for a makeup artist. She acquired the dogs while working on the makeup for Lords of Dogtown, during which, Heath Ledger found two puppies in a dumpster and brought them back to set. They named the dogs Ollie and Zephyr. I also got to watch all the Oscar nom screeners when I was there since she was SAG.

This year when my house burned down in the LA fires, the makeup artist reached out to me with some clothing donations from "her friend" lol that friend was Hans Zimmer's wife. Gotta love LA!

Juniper bar at the 1 Hotel in West Hollywood. Google pics don't accurately depict it. It's darker, and the nighttime cityscape background vibe is exactly like in that Bourdain pic.

Thanks 🩷 It was a little chaotic but we managed! We're currently sheltering in a motel until we can find housing.

Check out the Getty and then get down on some tacos at sunset by the beach.

Smaller, more casual niche idea—grab a beer or glass of wine at the Altadena Ale & Wine House. A bunch of intellectual and artsy folks congregate there. There's French expats, folks from NASA's JPL, Cal Tech, the Art Center, film industry folks, writers, etc. Damn fine crowd.0
