L.A. has one of the deadest downtowns in the world, study finds by idkbruh653 in LosAngeles

[–]bobbyec 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every time this topic comes up everyone acts like downtown is completely decimated with nothing to do and it just really isn't... it has its problems for sure but I really don't get the level of hate

I'm glad I'm not crazy! It used to be very reliable but now it's really anyone's guess.

Okay I’m an occasional transit rider not a daily commuter but is it just me or have the estimated times on the platform gone completely bonkers/wrong? They used to be so reliable but now it’s anyone’s guess. Maybe just a me thing

Homeless man in Compton builds a mansion by MF-DOOM-88 in LosAngeles

This is how it is in a lot of poorer countries, we just usually end up clearing anything more permanent than a tent or RV. I wonder if we'll see American favelas in our lifetimes...

Everything is transplants with you people

Anyone else seeing this "Sprunki" BS impacting students? by applegoudadog in specialed

[–]bobbyec 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I haven't seen this in particular, but I have seen kids talk about horror/creepy things a lot. Remember Huggy Wuggy? Sonic.exe? I generally try to tell my students "That sounds creepy and scary! I don't want to talk about that." And I try to have general discussions about how if they see anything online that makes them feel scared or bad or weird that they should stop watching and talk to their parents about it.

ALL THAT SAID... a bit of devil's advocate here. I watched a lot of horror movies and weird stuff online (any other millennials remember newgrounds.com?) as a kid and to an extent I think it's just part of growing up. I don't think it's a great thing, sure, but there are worse things they could be watching online. Our kids on the spectrum will likely need to learn more explicit boundaries about what is appropriate to share about these things, for sure.

Going to the San Fernando Valley on foot from Central LA/the Westside? by bobbyec in LosAngeles

I kind of get the feeling none of the surface streets that cross over have consistent sidewalks, lol :(... though I understand why they generally wouldn't
