  1. Whelp, overnight someone vandalized the sole "Spencer Pratt for LA Mayor" yard sign in the neighborhood.

    And this is in a neighborhood where a Trumper had an untouched MAGA flag out front for over year.

    lol!

  3. #LAFires Could Transform Former #Rocketdyne Site into #FEMATrailerPark

    January 2025

    "#Radiation and chemical vapors on 47-acre #CanogaPark site are too toxic for housing, but could be mitigated to safely house residents displaced by January 2025 fires in above-ground trailers.

    - Gross site contamination and development encumbrances prohibit residential housing
    - Hundreds of #FEMATrailers, mobile homes and even shipping containers could be placed on site safely and temporarily house thousands of #LosAngeles disaster victims [Or maybe a potential #DetentionCenter? Hmmmm...]
    - Efforts to clean up polluted west Valley groundwater could emulate 2024 agreement to remediate fouled east Valley aquifer and provide billions of gallons of clean water

    "The former Rocketdyne Canoga Park facility in the western #SanFernandoValley is so contaminated that it is nearly impossible to build anything on it other than light industry even though a developer wanted to construct homes on the site.

    "#Chemicals and #radiation severely contaminate the land and #groundwater in and around the site according to documentation obtained by EnviroReporter.com.

    "According to astonishing information never before covered in the media, areas offsite and around #RocketdyneCanoga are hot with high amounts of gross alpha and uranium radiation."

  12. Heyyyyyy #SanFernandoValley #sfv #VanNuysCA #LosAngeles etc etc etc. Anyone out there both willing and able to help @camilla and I move literally across the yard but at a pace that isn't "so slow a snail could move faster"? Even if it's "just" a "no, can't, sorry-" maybe you know someone who can! Who knows.

    Help us, Obi-Wan Kenobi, you're our only hope.

  13. #Landlords gouge victims of #LAFires

    by Judd Legum and Noel Sims, Jan 14, 2025

    "The devastating fires in Los Angeles have killed 24 people. The fires have burned tens of thousands of acres, and hundreds of thousands of #Angelenos have been forced to evacuate. The blaze has destroyed at least 12,000 structures and thousands of people have nowhere to live.

    "For most people, this is a horrific tragedy. But numerous landlords in the area are treating it as a #MoneyMaking opportunity.

    "A review of rental listings revealed dozens of properties where the landlords have sharply increased their prices since the fires began on January 7. Popular Information used Zillow to identify rental homes in communities near the areas impacted by the fires — including #PacificPalisades, #SantaMonica, #ManhattanBeach, #HuntingtonBeach, and the #SanFernandoValley — that have increased their asking price over the last week.

    "While not every rent increase is evidence of #exploitation, the timing and scale of many increases strongly suggest #PriceGouging is occurring.

    "In Manhattan Beach, for example, Popular Information identified a five-bedroom home listed on December 31, 2024, for $8,750 per month. By Monday, the rent was bumped up 125 percent to $19,750 monthly.

    "But it is not only luxury properties with ocean views whose prices have skyrocketed in the last week.

    "A three-bedroom home in #Tujunga, listed for $4,100 on December 28, was increased to $8,500 on January 7, the day the Pacific Palisades fire broke out, 93 percent higher than its initial listing price."

    Retro SciFi Film of the Week…

    Plan 9 from Outer Space (1957)

    How did this stupid film become the greatest science fiction cult classic ever? Who knows. This is Ed Wood’s magnum opus. Written and shot in a month, on a budget of $60k.

    Here are a couple of excerpts from Wikipedia, “...his ideas tended to be too expensive to film, yet he tried to film them anyway.” and “[Wood’s films were] notable for their campy aesthetics, technical errors, unsophisticated special effects, use of poorly-matched (sic) stock footage, eccentric casts, idiosyncratic stories and non sequitur dialogue...”

    Filmed in the San Fernando Valley, north of Hollywood, the movie contains many shots of historical interest from the area, including Tor Johnson’s house where Bela Lugosi did some unrelated test scenes before his death which were later worked into the film as his “last performance”. (Johnson was a professional wrestler and friend of Wood.)

    Wood continued to make low-budget sensational films in the Valley, later shifting to porn in the late 1960s because they made more money. His productions were at the start of the boom in the porn industry in the San Fernando Valley, where 90% of porn films were make from the 60s through the 90s. (The industry declined significantly at the beginning of the 21th century due to the Internet.)

    The film also starred Gregory Walcott, Bela Lugosi, Maila Nurmi, Tor Johnson, Lyle Talbot and Criswell.

    The title was inspiration for the UNIX-like OS, Plan 9 from Bell Labs.

    A biopic of Wood’s career was later produced, Ed Wood (1994), starring Johnny Deep as Wood and Martin Landau as Bela Lugosi.That biopic covers his productions from Glen or Glenda (1953) to Plan 9 from Outer Space (1957). The former was about transvestism -- Wood himself was a cross dresser and many of his friends were in the LGBTQ community.
