Remember when you could walk in, grab an item, pay, and leave in less than five minutes without waiting for the one overworked employee to finally show up and unlock it for you?

This is the Silver Lake Vons, but it could be anywhere in LA these days.

I just want to make sure that everyone that doesn’t already know, now knows, that the reason Ralphs supermarkets doesn’t have an apostrophe is not to save sign money, it’s because IT IS NOT POSSESSIVE. The founder of Ralphs was George Ralphs. With an “s”. I found out cause I made a joke about “What’s if his last name was just Ralphs?”. Then googled it. It is. His last name is Ralphs. Absolutely ridiculous.

LAPD officers forcefully restrained a man, kneed him, and struck him with their elbows. He was later found dead in his cell.

I know hurricanes are there all the time, just posting for fun

I just checked my registration renewal and California wants $701.

SEVEN HUNDRED DOLLARS to renew my tags??? I knew registration was expensive out here, but I genuinely was not expecting that.

Between a car payment, insurance, parking, charging, and everything else that comes with having a car, seeing another $701 bill pop up for registration feels criminal 😭

Like this is what I've been waiting for. If the day is hot it's not a big deal honestly as long as the nights cool but my area is getting nights in the 58-64 degree range this week and I'm so happy. Last week was like 78-80 at night and it was disgusting. Happy first day of meteorological autumn tomorrow! I'm finally going to open my windows for the first time tonight in who knows how long.

Hi everyone! I’m in the cosmetology program at LATTC in DTLA. Starting next week on Wednesdays and Thursdays we’ll be open to take clients now that the semester has officially started. We have a lot of talented people and want to make sure we get as much experience possible before being out in the world with our licenses. All services are monitored by licensed professionals with 20+ years salon experience.

If you’re looking for an affordable hairdresser, braider, loctician, colorist, nail tech, or barber please consider coming on campus and getting services by us.

If you do decide to come by, please come around 9-10 am to make sure we have enough time to service you fully during class time. Thank you!

ETA: there’s also an Esthetician course that does facials, waxing, and certain lash services! I’ll post the price list in the comment

Found near the Culver City Westfield mall.

This is a reminder not to leave anything in your vehicle. Sometimes we all need this reminder.

If it happened to me, it could happen to youuuuuu!!!!!

Downtown

I‘m sick of watching the bodies pile. I‘m sick of bankrupting myself just to travel safely in this city.

I want bike lanes. I want bus lanes. I want the Freedom to take non-car options to get to my destination in a reasonable amount of time, and in a manner that I don’t have to worry about dying to get there.

I’m done with Los Angeles Carmunism.

When it first opened in 2015, Blue Butterfly Village was hailed as a rare sanctuary for women veterans overcoming homelessness. But some tenants now say conditions at the San Pedro townhome complex have become so bad, they’re willing to give up their taxpayer-subsidized rent and take their chances on finding a home they can afford on their own limited income.

The allegations: Twelve current and former tenants filed a lawsuit in Los Angeles County Superior Court last week against Blue Butterfly’s nonprofit landlord, Volunteers of America. The tenants allege the organization has neglected the property, has failed to provide safe and habitable housing and has harassed residents who complain about worsening conditions. The Housing Authority of the City of L.A. has placed at least three units at Blue Butterfly Village under abatement in recent years, meaning they have withheld rental subsidies until housing violations are addressed.

The landlord’s response: A Volunteers of America spokesperson declined an interview with LAist, but emailed a statement saying the organization could not comment on active litigation. “We regularly inspect our properties, including Blue Butterfly Village, and respond promptly to maintenance and safety requests from our residents,” the statement read. “We remain deeply committed to ensuring Blue Butterfly Village serves as a supportive environment for female veterans and their families, and we continue to collaborate with municipal partners and property management to address any outstanding maintenance or operational needs.”
