Just a typical childless cat dad married to a childless cat lady. Los Angeles (Koreatown) resident. Originally from Buchannon, WV and Killbuck, OH (my parents had a thing for Bucks apparently).
Just got this in the mail. Plan to read a little of @jayforeman.bsky.social and @markcooperjones.bsky.social new book before bed.

I get that Johnson is an immoral sack of flesh who has made a pact with beings from a hell dimension that makes him incapable of telling the truth....

But with any other job, missing critical information over and over again is a sign of incompetence.

I still hold that incompetence is bad.
Q: What's your reaction to yesterday's purge of senior ICE officials? When is it time for Congress to do some oversight?

MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know any of the details of that yet. I just heard about that, literally I was walking in.

We did our NoKings in the leftist bastion of LA County ... Burbank (obvious joke).

We wanted to spend time with our friends. And this was the best compromise for everyone. It was heartening to see people who I wouldn't expect to have an opinion on this be involved.

Went to the annual LA Koreatown festival. It's still on for Saturday and Sunday.

Moved to Los Angeles from Ohio 10-years ago. I thought the whole LA reaction to rain was over-exaggerated. Then I realized it was real and Angelenos were silly to react that way.

Now I go: OH MY GOD IT'S RAIN!!!!!

This has been around koreatown for a few years now. Do you do you think the person realizes they were wrong and use this as an example for themselves to be more introspective?

The answer is no. If they were capable of introspection and selfdoubt, they wouldn't have printed up a damn sign.

They say having a Siamese is like having a dog. But instead of just "hating" cats, Siamese are just super jealous of other cats.

Our Siamese is super sweet and loving. But the second the other cat tries to muscle in on her turf she turns into an angry mobster.

That's how kids take their enemas now a days. By elevator.

It took a disturbingly long time for my wife to realize I was talking to the cats and not her when I said, "It's hot [pause] as your mom."

I had to have the rules of Lotería explained to me. Much to the amusement of some of our Angeleno friends.

Nothing makes me want to complain more about my fellow Angelenos then when they set fucking fireworks off in the middle of the god damned day.

I really don't understand the appeal. It's like Mr. Beast. Something is popular, but I don't know why and never will.

MEH!

The LA @alamodrafthouse.bsky.social has this outside their bathrooms and it makes me laugh.

Also probably the best public restrooms in the US. If they had bidets they would be as good as Japan.

Real talk. Does anyone put freeze pops in their wine?

Let's hope they don't confuse the the camo shirts the servers at Dan Sung Sa wear as a sign of an actual insurgent army.
COIN is being seen by the community and then stopping by Korea Town for soju and bbq on your way back to the FOB

Or not!

Maybe it is difficult to see, but there is a sign for parking for a church.

So it makes it funny to me.

2 hours until sunset and people are already launching fireworks in Koreatown, Los Angeles.

I can't decide if it wants to to hug you or eat you.

Anyone interested in the history of TTRPGs should give "Daddy Rolled A 1" a watch/listen

He hasn't resorted to the outrage cycle like so many in the YouTube RPG space have done.

It's just long form with no BS.

And he's handled sensitive topic respectfully (Oriental Adventures comes to mind).
A chill vibe, some jazzy D&D lore, and actual research?

If you love longform history about RPGs (minus the clickbait), come check out Daddy Rolled a 1. 🍸📚🎲

My ~80 year old mother is visiting us in Los Angeles. She wanted to go one of the #NoKings rally.

We went to #WeHo because of easy parking and shade.

She has limited mobility.

If it means anything, my mother is NOT a very politically minded person. I'm hoping it's a good sign that she wanted to

I'm going to assume this is legit.

Helicopters fly high in the sky. Can't just let marchers just go on by.

Marchers came down Wilshire. And that's scarwy to LAPD apparently.

Again people doing what they should be allowed to do in any functioning democracy.

Sometimes the comments on YouTube aren't a house fire of bad takes.

I'm going to re-read Pratchett's Night Watch. You know for no particular reason.
