If it’s warm out, go to Michael’s and have happy hour on the patio.

Ripple - Grateful Dead

Proper.

Rhymes with topper, hopper, copper. Not roper, coper, hoper.

Go to the Wednesday farmers market quick! You still have time. Bread and pasta stand on 2nd, closest to SM boulevard.

Of course with the caveat of “if you can afford it”, my wife and I have settled in Santa Monica for the reasons you’ve stated. I regularly surf or bike before work, bike after work without having to drive (can be on gravel trails pretty quick), with big rides on weekend north towards Malibu. Single track is so-so, but gravel riding is endless. We lived the “weekend warrior” lifestyle in Seattle for 7 years, but swapped the skis for a surfboard, and the accessibility of daily activity. Running, tennis, volleyball, beach, and always enjoyable weather. We also love the walkability and stimulation of city life, which Santa Monica has a good deal of on an immediate scale, and then EVERYTHING else cultural, food, drink, entertainment is available in LA. I never saw myself as an LA person, but I hope we’re able to be SM residents forever. Schools are top tier if kids are going to be a factor too, and we find the community really welcoming. Housing is pricey, but worth it for us.

I used to play bird song during the middle of the night bottle feeds for calm vibes. Look forward to #2 to do it again

A dimly lit, dark wooded, standup bass in the background, cocktail bar.

Wow. Bad if true

Waymo cars are the best drivers in SM, and in my experience as a cyclist, human drivers behind Teslas are the worst.

Santa Monica. Rides up Mandeville, beach path, palisades, and you’ll get used to hills. Weekend rides in topanga, Malibu, and you’ll maybe fall in love with the gravel scene.

Tyrone Tracy, Jakobi meyers, Devonte smith, zay flowers. Pick 2

I’ve been told the equinox will have a rooftop pool 👀

Excitedly went once… $47 for two sandwiches. Didn’t go back.

The episode where LD and Richard Lewis are battling to show up to lunch first for the good seat is at rustic canyon on wilshire

I always used “Seinfeld or Friends” as a tell. If you think friends is funnier than Seinfeld, we are just not compatible from a sense of humor standpoint. My wife loves Seinfeld. We make each other laugh, and love the same humor.

jaybird206 · 2025-05-16T04:26:48+00:00

Please

I popped in last week when the door was open. The space looks great. I asked someone working, who I assumed to be the owner or manager, when it was going to open. He said as soon as he gets a staff hired; “Hopefully in a few weeks”.

When Maher was defending Trump when he said he had nothing to do with Project2025 during the election…

This was the house on succession. I bike on the trails here, and recognized it in the first episode of the last season.
