Even if you are in the Valley, transit is a lot better than it gets credit for tbh. LA Metro's bus lines in the Valley have consistently had some of the highest post-COVID ridership returns/growth. It only recently had a decline bc of the ICE raids.

There was something going on w/ the B/D line last night too. I get that shit happens, but man really sucks how often delays like this occur.

It bothers me that after billions spent building a rail system, we are left with a system that is too slow, too unreliable and too uncomfortable to be useful.

For now yeah just mention LA, SFV, or North Hollywood(NoHo works too). I’ve been debating setting up a bsky list of LA businesses where all of the approved accts posts get on the feed but not sure how I wanna handle that yet

I popped in for a session of Daggerheart here a few weeks back. Great shop!!

I run a feed for the LA area and frequently see posts from local businesses hit the feed like Game Realms in Burbank and Collectors Paradise in NoHo. I presume it's worthwhile since they keep posting but 🤷‍♂️

i bike this route every day to work I don't know how i missed this tbh

but tbh I haven't touched this feed in a while and it needs some maintenance

Continuing from my response to ariel, there's also my LA vs. ICE feed which requires a mention of an LA-area term + an ICE/CBP/DHS term for a post to show up

Happy to chat on the Graze discord or via DMs if you've got questions :)

This is the public feed definition on Graze. Essentially requires a mention of an LA neighborhood, LA county city, a local destination, etc. + some sort of urbanism/transpo/housing term. There are some extra exceptions an such but not enough characters here.

I would say my most "activisty" one is Urbanism - Los Angeles which picks up chatter about urbanism, transportation, & housing in the LA area. Local, on-theme advocacy orgs like Streets for All get all their posts added to the feed, all posts w/ links to Streetsblog LA, keyword matches, etc
