A low-pressure system will bring precipitation today and Monday to much of the coastal and mountain areas of Southern California. With rain in the forecast, it’s important to stay alert to the increased risk of debris flows in areas recently impacted by #wildfires in Los Angeles County.

So much trauma out there in the world, in our people.

Sending love ♥️

Perhaps the real reason all public inauguration events are getting canceled. The crowd size would have embarrassed the incoming child and so he would rather take the transition money and run.

KNOW THIS: Altadena is a predominantly African-American community community where Black families were redlined into. It’s not the Palisades, but losing homes, livelihoods & generational wealth is equally devastating.

Communities targeted by redlining have historic reasons to distrust government.

Seeing video’s of families & elders who lost their homes in historic Altadena is heartbreaking. Here is a compiled list of gofundme’s for the displaced Black families of Altadena.

I think a lot about this quote from Anaïs Nin’s diary from 1939-1944:

“America is in even greater danger because of its cult of toughness, its hatred of sensitivity, and someday it may have to pay a price for this, because atrophy of feeling creates criminals”.

South Korea fought back an attempted coup, a CEO was assassinated, Syria overthrew a dictator.

The season finale of 2024 is popping OFF.

You can hate on “Baby it’s Cold Outside” all you want but my least favorite is “Rudolf.” It’s about an atypical being rejected by his peers until he is deemed a useful commodity by an authority figure and then lauded.

Fuck you, reindeer.
