AI isn’t replacing local businesses.
It’s exposing the ones with:
weak websites
incomplete Google profiles
generic content
inconsistent information
The businesses winning right now are the ones that are easiest to trust and understand.
That gap is about to get much bigger.

Who’s building on @Replit today for the 10 year anniversary?
I’m adding feature requests and bug fixes to https://t.co/IhcP6NFNhu
Also I’m building out a new parking management and enforcement app!
What are you working on?

Google out here screaming at us exactly what they want on a website for home service businesses to show up in search. I have built a solution: https://t.co/IhcP6NFNhu

Which halftime show did you watch?

@elonmusk Change the age restriction on new hires. Many 911 dispatchers will excel at ATC and retire young enough to continue a career.

Proposal for @DOGE : cancel all Federal NGO funding until the US solves the homeless children and Veteran problem within our borders. Once we take care of our children and veterans then re-evaluate.

Unofficial but this measurement is on the roof of my vehicle, unobstructed, and hasn’t been moved today. 7.75” and still snowing.

@kimt205 We don’t use 65 any longer. We go through Monroeville and Camden.

@mmpadellan Add “cannot pardon family members” while we are at it.

In coastal areas we prepare for hurricanes and are ready when they hit because the great National Weather Service prepares us for them with their forecast. Look what the NWS Los Angeles issued on 1/2/25

100 apparatus OUT OF SERVICE and needing over 60 ADDITIONAL fire stations!! LA City Hall gotta lot of answering to do. #CaliforniaWildfires

JUST IN: LA Fire Chief Kristin Crowley doubles down on throwing Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass under the bus.

Crowley said Bass' leadership did "negatively impact" their efforts to stop the fire.

"Let me be clear. The $17M budget cut and elimination of our civilian positions like our mechanics did and has and will continue to severely impact our ability to repair our apparatus."

"Over the last 3 years, we have been clear that the fire department needs help. We can no longer sustain where we are."

"I have also requested multiple interim budgets... to show how understaffed, under-resourced, and underfunded the LAFD is."

[Dan Wright @danhwright]

The loss of local tax dollars due to the #wildfires will have long term budgetary implications.

JUST IN: Los Angeles Fire Department chief Kristin Crowley turns on Los Angeles leadership, says they failed her.

Remarkable interview.

Crowley called out the city for having no water in the Santa Ynez Reservoir.

Reporter: "Did the city of Los Angeles fail you and your department?"

Crowley: "It's my job to stand up as a chief and exactly say what the fire department needs."

Reporter: "Did they fail you?"

Crowley: "Yes."

They're turning on each other.

[Dan Wright @danhwright]

@DTM_Woodworks Reports indicate the Chief did in fact show leadership. As I said, this is much deeper than the fire chief.

[Dan Wright @danhwright]

Actions have consequences. Kudos to the Chief for making that known.

L.A. Fire Chief Kristin Crowley warned Mayor Karen Bass (D) last month the $17+ million she cut from the department's budget "severely limited the department's capacity to prepare for, train for, and respond to large-scale emergencies, including wildfires"
