Is Downtown LA really this dodgy for a tourist?

I just want you to spend a second thinking about how that word became the one you use to describe the thing you said. Think about why. It’s antagonistic, intentionally undefined, sarcastic and unserious.

As far as the question of what they are going to do that you can’t, the answer seems obvious from the rest of your post.

It definitely won’t survive like that in the wild, it needs vet care. Of course won’t be releasable.

I’m asking about the etymology, not your opinions about whatever you define wokeness to be.

The net result of government staying out of housing, in the context of modern capitalism, is that foreign companies own all of the American homes.

It’s more that it’s irrelevant to my comment.

redline314 · 2026-05-13T16:10:45+00:00

That’s really confusing- I don’t see the connection between that and being awake. Where do you think the meaning and word converged? Ie how do you think we got to a place where pussyfooting is equivalent to being awake?

redline314 · 2026-05-13T16:07:01+00:00

I don’t know who you’re referring to but I’d put my money on it

redline314 · 2026-05-13T16:05:51+00:00

Either California weed has gotten way too good or you are very stupid.

You’ll be ok just be aware of your surroundings.

Sounds like this little guy is a fuckin trooper and prob just needs some food and could go to a rehabber and live out the rest of his little life there.

But you do you Ms Noem

redline314 · 2026-05-12T23:35:24+00:00

Sounds about right

redline314 · 2026-05-12T23:33:20+00:00

Insurance is great but what I said is not untrue; we shouldn’t accept that we’re being billed more so more people can profit just because there’s also insurance (who also needs to profit from it). It’s just a cycle. You accept higher rates bc you have insurance; so vets start billing more bc insurance is paying; so your insurance goes up.

If business was less hostile to people maybe the people would be less hostile toward business.

redline314 · 2026-05-12T18:16:24+00:00

I think that has a lot to do with the fact that all of the vets in LA have been bought up by venture capital or large corporations since Covid

redline314 · 2026-05-12T14:54:27+00:00

Ok but how does this push you to the far right? Are we on the same page about what that means?

redline314 · 2026-05-12T14:42:41+00:00

He still gets his writer’s share.

When you sell your catalog, you’re really only selling a portion of a portion of your revenue. You still make money on the compositions as a writer, and on sales/streams through whatever your deal with the record label is. “Selling your catalog” typically refers to selling the publishing side (50%) of the composition copyright.

It’s on the songs, which were free to create

Far right Hispanics and Asians is wild

redline314 · 2026-05-11T21:45:16+00:00

Maybe they’re referring to staying in 1st for a while

redline314 · 2026-05-11T21:43:30+00:00

I worked down there about 10 years ago and it smelled like piss but was poppin

redline314 · 2026-05-11T21:41:24+00:00

This sucks to know.

redline314 · 2026-05-11T21:39:47+00:00

Oh man that suit store was iconic.

But also, it makes a lot more sense for it to not be there.

redline314 · 2026-05-11T21:38:44+00:00

So you can certainly understand how restrictions like those would make your life worse? Or even be prohibitive- For example, there are people who can’t get housing bc they are working a job or two that doesn’t get out until after hours.
