(Palos Verdes; electric utilities refuse to keep on reconnecting homes built on a moving prehistoric landslide that is moving inexorably into the Pacific).
LA Times: A scenic L.A. suburb with ocean views went off grid. How are residents surviving?

I love LA, so spare the bullshit celebrations of its demise.

started a #wikipedia article on US violinist, conductor, Elyse Aehle (1894-1981), began conducting orchestras in the Illinois in the 1930s, continued in Los Angeles from the 1940s to the early 1970s, as conductor of the South Bay Symphony (and her grave is in my zipcode): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elyse_Aehle @wikiwomeninred #WomeninMusic @wikipedia_la #PalosVerdes #Torrance #SanPedro #Violin #TennesseeWilliams

This would make a wicked time lapse photo location, though you'd probably have to use a high precision GPS to align where you put the camera every day. 4 inches per day I think the lady said in the video... Amazed it all doesn't run straight to the sea in one fell swoop. #disasters #landslide #PalosVerdes

Great news piece on the Palos Verdes, sliding into the sea in slow motion. It's like a living, moving disaster movie! https://www.cbsnews.com/video/california-neighborhood-is-slowly-sliding-toward-the-ocean/ #PalosVerdes #disaster #landslide

Today, tomorrow
A Saturday in May?
Ten years from now,
Perhaps a hundred, they say
Aunt Margaret walks out
And the ground rumbles and rolls
The fence falls down
Startles all the moles
The whole neighborhood goes sliding
Out to the sea
Could be the rain, an earthquake
Most important--just flee!(A poem I have composed for the occasion, LOL)

Power shutoffs extending even further in Palos Verdes as landslide vs. humans continues (landslide is winning)

"The Palos Verdes debris avalanche is the largest, by volume, late Quaternary mass-wasted deposit recognized from the inner California Borderland basins. Early workers speculated that the sediment failure giving rise to the deposit is young, taking place well after sea level reached its present position."

Oh hey, look, there's a prehistoric landslide in the Pacific right there. #PalosVerdes

"The Portuguese Bend landslide, in coastal southern California, is an active, slow-moving mass of blocks and debris that extends from the shoreline to moderate altitudes along part of the southerly margin of the Palos Verdes Hills... Ground failure has been widespread in this area. It evidently began in mid- to late-Pleistocene time, and it has continued intermittently to the present." #pleistocene #landslide #PortugueseBend #PalosVerdes https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/0013795289900379

Curious when you just declare a neighborhood a "BAD IDEA" and buy out everyone and make it into a park. This has been a landslide area for A VERY LONG TIME, and homes should never have been built there (IMHO). #PalosVerdes #PortugueseBend #Landslide #disaster https://laist.com/news/rainfall-accelerating-land-movement-in-rancho-palos-verdes
