  1. 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.

  2. There are so many gxddamn fireworks going off, it sounds like an old dot matrix printer with the occasional pop-boom.

    And of course the cops have better things to do than idk handle the illegal fireworks. 🙄🙄

    Also, people, setting off your "explodes at tree canopy height fireworks amongst tree canopies" is FUCKING DUMB, THIS IS HOW YOU START FIRES. (Guess what I saw with my own fucking eyes on my way home from Walmart. 🙃 luckily NOT A FIRE BEING STARTED.)

    Also why is *this* the illegal activity y'all collectively decide is cool. Really? 🙄 I thought we don't want to burn LA???

  3. Why the FUCK is it 74% humidity. Who ordered this. Go back to your swamp. #CAwx #SoCalwx #VanNuysCA

  4. ... well that epicenter must have been close, that was jolty as FUCK (like Thunk-thunk!), but not long at all and not strong. #Earthquake #LosAngeles #VanNuysCA

  5. Los Angeles Weird(tm) from today:

    - the (probably unhoused) dude on a bicycle with the back wheel normal adult size for the adult size frame, but a thicker, smaller, white kid's bike tire for the front wheel. Seemed to work pretty okay for him, 0 struggle. Just kind of "what the fuck..." to watch go past. 😅😂

    - the quite possibly high af dude cheerfully running along with a water bottle, fast food & drink, who paused and asked me for a cigarette and I told him "no, sorry" (I don't smoke). He took off again cheerfully enough and kept trying to yell things back at me, but. I'm deaf. Didn't understand a whit of it. Hope you got a cig eventually, dude.

    - the short (maybe my height) dude with this big dog - possibly an Old English Sheepdog in need of a groom? - and *I* might have been the weird one there... I definitely exclaimed, "what a puppy!!" 🤣😅😅

  6. Cringing with your shoulders in your ears as you make the turn doesn't absolve you from making the turn that you knew damn well you shouldn't have *because there was a pedestrian (me) starting to cross*.

    That "GET FUCKED!" wasn't even a tic, just accurate.

  7. Hey #VanNuysCA, have any of you fucks heard of using your turn signal? (Or, even better, using it *correctly*?)

    The last FOUR CARS I have seen actively driving were moving violations:

    - if the right signal worked, it was barely visible, and absolutely did not honk or anything to indicate they were *there* before turning.
    - I didn't see a left turn signal *and didn't yield to pedestrian in the crosswalk* (me. It was me. I should have let them hit me.)
    - turned on their turn signal *after* turning upon realizing "o shit pedestrians. Wheelchair pedestrians." Hi, red car with black stripes, *we noticed that*.
    - no turn signal, 0 fucks. Balloons in the back seat.

    Go back to driving school, #LosAngelesCounty.

  8. Hey actually getting the shake alert before the quake is fancy. Good job. That said, barely a shimmy-shake in #VanNuysCA lol. #Earthquake

  9. What the actual fuck is going down at midnight:30 for cop helos to be circling loudly and relentlessly, #VanNuysCA?

  10. Weather widget this morning: 20% chance of rain in your area today

    Me: o I'll be fine... <*does not take an umbrella or their poncho*>

    (Later.....)

    Weather in my area, literally as I'm getting off the bus closest to home a couple hours or so ago: HAVE A DELUGE!!!

    Me, desperately laugh-screeching the short distance as fast as I can go: WHY IS IT HAILING???

    Anyway that was fun and also v cold and wet. The hail was Highly Unexpected, thanks #CAwx lol.

  11. Oh hey speaking of cyclists... if the #bicyclist who was in Such A Big Rush to cut off two powerchair users to get to the Sepulveda+ Sherman Way bus stop *which wasn't even our destination* on Saturday afternoon/evening is on mastodon: you're an asshole and I hope the next bus had no room for you and your bike. #VanNuysCA #bike #BikeTooter

  12. Fucking COLD this morning.

    (Look there was frost on the roofs at 8am; I'm allowed to call that cold. 😂)

    For reasons known only to #accessparatransit I had to book my pickup at 8am (and wasn't picked up til like 8:15 lol), so there I was, freezing my hands... lol. (But fr brrrrr.)

  13. The rain has apparently arrived per my MiL and possibly my cat. #CAwx #SoCalwx #VanNuysCA

  14. I think the wind over here in Van Nuys was more ICON's forecast than HRRR's today so that was nice. I know that didn't hold out elsewhere so I hope y'all are doing okay. #SantaAnaWinds #windevent #windstorm #CAwx #SoCalwx #VanNuysCA

  15. Hhhhhh okay #sylmarfire is actually in the Valley albeit not Super close; I have a neuro appt tomorrow (if evac zones don't cancel it, thanks Palisades Fire) but I have a feeling I'm gonna be waking up to check on fire updates Often. 💀 #wildfire #windevent #windstorm #CAwx #SoCalwx #VanNuysCA

  16. Thanks NWS LA I definitely need to be told to "stay inside and avoid windows" tomorrow when I quite literally have classes. That have not been precautionarily canceled. Yolo right? 😅 #CAwx #SoCalwx #VanNuysCA #windevent #windstorm

  17. That would be why I'm fucking freezing yes. 54F at 9am. Hoodie weather in SoCal! #CAwx #SoCalwx #VanNuysCA

  18. Oh that's why I feel vaguely sticky. 79% humidity, yuck. #CAwx #SoCalwx #VanNuysCA

  19. Huh. I have a shake alert for a 5.7 #earthquake like 70 miles away at 9:09pm... that I absolutely slept through bc it wasn't super shakey by the time it got here I bet.

    (Alternatively I was just that asleep. 🤣)

    (Tagging #CA #SoCal #VanNuysCA bc location matters on a seismically active planet lolol.)

  20. The number of people setting off fireworks in a residential neighborhood in a county where they're fucking illegal AND I'm pretty sure we're under a red flag warning thru like Sunday is fucking ridiculous.

    Residential neighborhood does not mean immune to fires, you absolute dipshits. <*stares at all the palm trees, then the non-existant camera*> those are wildly flammable, for instance.

    Happy fucking explosion and car alarm day. #CAwx #SoCalwx #VanNuysCA #fireworks #heatwave #4thofJuly #NothingToBeProudOf

  21. Fucking marine layer has moved in so I can't tell if we have any aurora going on over here in #VanNuysCA. Thanks, SoCal. :(

    Tho I did just realise my directionally challenged dumbass was looking south/southeast earlier. Wrong direction for this hemisphere. 🤦🏻

    #northernlights #g5geomagneticstorm

  22. Epic fucking fog over here in #VanNuysCA this (very early) morning. Socked in and absolutely shite visibility, so here's hoping people are remembering their fog lights and not driving like assholes. (That'll be the day.) #CAwx #SoCalwx

  23. I'd like to diagnose the San Fernando Valley with uhhhhh *stares at trees outside* heeeeeeckin wimdy. *wx person nod*

    #CAwx #SoCalwx #VanNuysCA

  24. Me: *eating sushi and listening to pouring rain*

    NWS: EMERGENCY ALERT flash flood warning for this area til 7pm.

    Me: gee, wonder why.

    #CAwx #SoCalwx #VanNuysCA

  25. The rain has finally for sure hit in Van Nuys.

    Like I think it might have drizzled some off and on overnight? But enough off for the walkway to dry up soooo.

    #CAwx #SoCalwx #VanNuysCA

  26. The rain hit here about an hour ago. Started as a sprinkle. Idk if it's still that gentle lol. #CAwx #SoCalwx #VanNuysCA
