I was hardcore rooting for the Blue Jays just so we can have a reprieve in Boyle Heights. Instead the bombs have increased in quantity and magnitude. So weird to live in a place that normalizes this to such an extent.

Really fucking disappointing that she’s bending to the NIMBY/suburban minded politicians aligned with Spencer Pratt of all people instead of the working class who desperately need LA to be a functioning, affordable big city.

Over the past year I’ve been shocked by how many people who I know who weren’t really into casinos or gambling are full on spending significant chunks of money on weekly sports bets! It’s insane. Even teens betting with their parents accounts!

Ya the rest of us aren’t doing any damn better. Higher Ed, in theory, has more safeguards via your unions and faculty governance. They are failing you and the rest of us! It’s sad to see :/

More importantly I appreciate the appropriate usage of ‘bunk’. We need to bring that back!
