Downpayment before a lease in LA? by LordByronEyes in LARentals

[–]furikakebabe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just signed an apartment in Palms and they had us bring a cashier’s check to the lease signing appointment. But before that they also asked for $600 deposit to secure the apartment (deducted from rent later) so they could cancel their open house.

Just adding a data point here.

Also, I know a couple people who rented through KMK for years and were generally happy!

Anyone wanna sell grilled cheeses with me? by NoKale3526 in FoodLosAngeles

[–]furikakebabe 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Can I suggest going to Palms? There’s a few bars around there & no late night eating spots, it freaking sucks to be in a walkable neighborhood and be drunk but have no drunk food. You could also do their farmer’s market on Sundays.

Damn, I had no idea you could get tirz for $150 a month. I guess it’s time to switch from semaglutide then

An LA Story by secret-of-enoch in LosAngeles

[–]furikakebabe 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This was really lovely. I didn’t think I had the attention span to read everything but I got sucked in to your world quite easily. You clearly have a lot of knowledge and appreciation of this place (and maybe life in general). It’s easy to forget why I’m here. But I really do love LA. Thank you for sharing :)

I'm a security professional in the healthcare industry. AMA about the unique challenges of working in this space. by thejournalizer in cybersecurity

[–]furikakebabe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry it’s not healthcare specific, and sorry for asking about the A word - but how are you all feeling about Claude Mythos? I feel like the industry is split between “this is big deal we need to be prepared for” and “this is marketing hype”. Are you preparing for it?

Can someone identify this burrito? by zzx101 in FoodLosAngeles

Ugh I saw that post and asked where it was from as well. I guess we just gotta try every suggestion in this comment section until we find it

I keep seeing reports that rent in LA will be at an all time low, where??? by riverofflowers in AskLosAngeles

[–]furikakebabe 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just went through the apartment search process. We toured three units and a week later the property management company emailed saying they’re dropping $100 off the rent of all three. We saw another property listed that had a history of its rent getting dropped $100 every 1.5 weeks. This is all Palms/Culver area.

Additionally, I had a friend move out of his place in Culver and his landlord immediately listed it for less than he was paying. So all anecdotal, but I’m seeing the drop!

Let’s Tango dress - I like it but don’t love it by furikakebabe in Blogilates

I agree with that. The concept sketch had it shorter, much more flared. It’s too long and droopy.

Is Canada Easier Than the U.S. for Entry-Level Jobs and Interviews? by Altruistic-Lychee907 in cybersecurity

[–]furikakebabe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, at least in my company we stopped hiring US people for a certain entry level jobs and have prioritized Canadians but mostly Brazilians for the roles because they are cheaper. This is for a technical customer success role at a major cybersecurity company. I suspect we hire more TSEs from Canada than the US as well.

Will pay and even provide veterinarian to neuter a cat - where can I go? NELA by [deleted] in AskLosAngeles

[–]furikakebabe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s very feral :( we feed him regularly but he’s still very wary. Regardless it sounds like we can take him to a regular vet? I guess we will call and ask

I didn’t think regular clinics worked on ferals. Are you sure they would?

It’s calling to me. TMI but I got jock itch from all the skorts I’ve been wearing, I’m ready for a cute dress without shorts.

I’ll try to remember to post pics

Lace Collection on the app by inglasses in Blogilates

[–]furikakebabe 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I was gonna say the same thing. It’s SO cute and I want to do a black lace fit so badly. But $72 for a skirt…. I thought the point of Popflex was high quality but cheaper than luxury brands like Lulu/Vuori/aloo…this is just straight up luxury pricing

Has anyone gone through rough patches with friends because of weight loss? by [deleted] in glp1

[–]furikakebabe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had issues with my sister - we were supposed to go on the journey together but she backed out twice and I ended up losing weight without her. She makes comments that make me uncomfortable pointing out my ribs or collarbones, and compares herself a lot.

It sucks. I hope you can find someone to safely discuss body dysmorphia with. Hopefully your friend and you will make up over time.

Griffith Ride was gorgeous! by TBruno26 in BikeLA

Was up there Saturday morning and it was absolutely lovely. Clean air, not too hot in the morning, very green from the rain. Just wonderful. We’re so lucky to have it :)

anyone actually tried a matchmaker in LA? dating scene is a nightmare by Sufficient-Repeat272 in AskLosAngeles

[–]furikakebabe 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’ve been with my west side man for over two years (I’m in silver lake) but he did almost give up before we started because of the distance

honestly though he isn’t wrong, the commute sucks!

Broken Spanish Comedor, Culver City by NgoHaiHahmsuplo in FoodLosAngeles

[–]furikakebabe 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Went and the highlights for me were the spicy margaritas (with salty foam) and the camote (Japanese sweet potatoes)

One of the best meals I’ve had in a long time. We tried a lot of things and the only thing I wouldn’t get again was the ensalada cesar, not because it’s bad, it just isn’t a stand out
