LA City's Charter Reform has been looking at the question of a public advocate, and @controller.lacity.gov spoke against it saying he should be the only watchdog while asking to also be the CFO.
An elected public advocate and a strong controller work really well together, but he wants the spotlight

@nickandert.bsky.social Please, please please reconsider your take on the LPA.
Look at the Valley west of the 405. How many busses is it going to take for Northridge to get to the stop? Do you really think someone in Woodland Hills is going to go that far to take transit? What about Winnetka?

@nickandert.bsky.social respectfully, you clearly have no understanding of actual transit in the San Fernando Valley, and no experience of what it's like to move around here.
The center of SFV STILL does not have access. West Valley STILL does not have access.

I've been talking about this a lot on Twitter, but this isn't a win for the valley.
The loss of the Sepulveda/Sherman Way stop is HUGE. Reseda, Northridge, and Winnetka have ZERO access to rail. The Sepulveda/Sherman Way stop gave them access.
Now they STILL have nothing & are being ignored AGAIN

You guys, I am a pro at not panicking when I have medical issues.
Like that time my vision drastically changed, or today when I went to urgent care for my leg and they told me to go to the ER.
Getting old is fun.

So I am halfway through season 5 of DS9, and I think I have to agree that it is the best Star Trek series of the 80s and 90s. Maybe of all Star Trek series.
It has the fewest number of episodes I want to skip, and it has the least amount of rape. It also deals with a lot of heavily political issues
