We stayed up all night to beat the eviction.
There might actually be a lyric there.
@landlesser aka @rooflesser is helping me out currently.
I am so confident and hours ago I was riding on prayers entirely.
Wild to be alive.
Lastly - I remixed and dropped this song last night.

When people say "Russia invaded Ukraine in an unprovoked attack". 🥱
Remind them of two things, firstly the US Empire ALWAYS lies. Secondly, refer to the first point. 🧐
⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️
340 illegal settlements, “perpetrators are rarely arrested and even less frequently prosecuted, with rights groups detailing that settler attacks are state-sanctioned.”
This coming Saturday we will host again. The time will be announced soon. We will reunite with our friends in Gaza!
The topic will be about how to use social media effectively and respectfully to build a like-minded community of friends and advocates.

Perhaps the most convoluted explanation of 41.18 imaginable.
I know LA residents care about this issue, but why would anyone listen to this dude try to explain it.
The owner of a beloved bar and restaurant in Sherman Oaks is fighting to save the business from being shut down for a redevelopment project.

In 2023, @emptylosangeles wrote about the house at 570 North Normandie left open to burn. A Redditor recently told her about men with dogs running homeless squatters out before fires were set. So how's that arson investigation going? This broken city.

People are freaking out about this, but I don’t really see a huge issue?
Bonds that fund retirements have to make interest, right? Why is this one specifically harmful besides Islamophobia?
”…..they are obligated to pay 2.5% zakat on their qualifying assets. Many financial institutions offering Islamic finance products facilitate this process by….directly managing the payment by distributing funds to certified charitable organizations.”
“Auto-Tithe” to Islam? Out of my pension? That sounds fine.
@nicholasgerda Graves gave a speech re transparency & rules Aug 28 LAHSA Mtg which included action item instructions not on agenda, immediately after went to a closed session not on agenda, voted to extend O'Neill's CEO contract in a closed session & tried to adjourn w/no gen public comment. OK
No evidence supports the claim that Nithya Raman ran the specific LAHSA Urban Alchemy safe sleep program with the double-billing issues, presented or lobbied for its contract, or that her friends received it. That site was LAHSA-managed in South LA. As Housing and Homelessness Committee chair she approved broader city funding to LAHSA, but the scandal details involve agency-level oversight failures, not her direct program control.
NEW: Justin Szlasa exposed a double-billing scandal with LA homeless services and pressed for stronger audits. He was just demoted by an appointee of Mayor Bass, without explanation.
One official says it's part of a “cover-up” of dysfunction at LAHSA.
