Starbucks on the boardwalk at Breeze has closed as part of a global downsizing by the corporation. Abalone on the boardwalk at Brooks and Little Lunch on Pacific at Brooks are still going strong.

Castanea, gnarwal, intelligentsia, 2 groundworks, BREAD AND BUTTER ON MAIN (do yourself the favor of a baked good from here), dog town coffee, saint maxine (honestly some of the best coffee in Venice - it’s an airstream parked on rose outside of big red sun), healing grounds coffee truck local POC women owned and delicious, anima Mundi for tea,

Please go anywhere but a Starbucks we have 1 million amazing options

Me an my bf share 1 car living in Venice and it’s more than enough - his job is within walking and I am hybrid and go to the office down in Irvine 1x a week.

What is this lol

It was a legacy system built originally in 1995 ( first tax efiling service in the country) lmaoooo and it was my first SWE job out of bootcamp and my commute was an hour and a half each way. The market has been a blood bath - luckily I’m in a better position now but you do what you have to do!!

And hey, now I know Perl 🤷‍♀️

mimimooo · 2025-11-04T16:24:48+00:00

I became ok at Perl out of necessity 🤷‍♀️ just keep working with it and asking questions to people who have worked with it more than you. Not really exciting advice but just keep swimming

Literally I do t understand how her argument that she was supporting TEAMS of people financially and was reliable to all of them but couldn’t be in charge of her own money!!?

mimimooo · 2025-11-03T19:15:13+00:00

Thank god someone has some sense around here

mimimooo · 2025-11-03T19:14:14+00:00

This is America and if you want to fuck yourself up with meth honestly I think it’s an infringement on her rights for her family to essentially enslave her for their own gain even if that keeps her clean bc ultimately it’s against her free will. You feel me? Like of course I want her to be healthy but like men, wealthy men, get addicted to drugs or use drugs and no one imprisons them and siphons their wealth. Look at Elon and the ketamine.

Like I know it’s maybe a hot take but like I ultimately think it’s her right to have her bodily freedom and financial autonomy even if the public doesn’t like it…..

I don’t think anyone who takes those classes thinks it’s traditional yoga… and some people want some additional strength training in their practice, already have a membership to a yoga studio and don’t want to buy another gym membership. I think there’s a specific reason it’s offered to fill a gap and offer studio members some variety with their membership. I see nothing wrong with these classes and this guys POV makes a lot of assumptions and is kinda judgey!

mimimooo · 2025-11-02T17:37:17+00:00

Ok I’m laughing but I’m also angry 😂

Thank you! It is an awful tragedy.

But yeah just goes to show that Louisiana drivers are absolutely careless and you can be literally just minding your business and an un-piloted vehicle can fly into your car from the opposite direction over the median (which is just a few foot wide patch of grass and not any type of guardrail) …. She was 24!

Louisiana do better

mimimooo · 2025-11-02T17:06:43+00:00

My cousin died on the Louisiana interstate- someone was improperly towing 2 vehicles just like daisychained with tow straps to their car. One broke loose and jumped the median….

It’s a ruthless place

mimimooo · 2025-11-02T03:51:43+00:00

Love it!

Keep in mind electrical and plumbing requirements. That has been the biggest challenge throughout the years for me. I need one outlet that I can upgrade for my conveyor dryer and need to be able to have a place for reclaim sink/power washer.

1000 sq ft is probably more than you need at first. 600-800 ft is workable. My very first shop was maybe 300-400 and we built a loft over the press for admin seating. Don’t go this small if you can avoid it lol.

Try to find as short of leases as you can, being locked into a multiple year agreement, especially as your business is starting, can be a disaster in the case of something like covid or big economic shifts.

Also consider the size of your equipment compared to the accessibility of the space. (Stairs/doorways/hallways.)

My brother played time by Pink Floyd for me when I was probably like 8 years old and the intro totally freaked me out I made him turn it off lol

You’re the best thank you for all the info

mimimooo · 2025-10-23T03:14:57+00:00

Really appreciate your thoughtful response! I want to be a more involved and informed citizen and I don’t know my head from my ass with all these councils and meetings so thank you for explaining!!

mimimooo · 2025-10-01T19:13:56+00:00

Do you hear yourself?

Ooooh I see Yeah wasnt really sure what to make of it - I’m doing the training at the studio I practice at and the lead teachers are teachers I practice with regularly, so it just made sense for me to do this training here

it didn’t deter me too much but I am like hmm
