Can’t believe I had to write this story, but here it is.
Yesterday I rode my bike around Long Beach and people were OUT and every restaurant (even chains) had long-ass lines. Does this coincide with the fact that this is also first week we see much less activity in local ICE raids? People out here just want to live, man.
It’s been revealed to me that BlueSky is actually referring people to read our stories at @lataco.bsky.social! So first off all, thank you for restoring some hope and seeing that people actually still do read! Secondly, time to rekindle the love I once had to post erratic thoughts on here too.
The only journalism I trust anymore, honestly (as someone who works in tv news)
Yo Los Angeles! LA Taco is not only the best reporting on where the most amazing food in town is hiding, they have been way out in front of everyone with their reporting on ICE and CBP thugs.
This is the kind of independent, local, media we all need to support. I'm proud to be a member.
Am I an asshole for not taking seriously any pr email that has AI art?

Lesson learned: Waiting in line for Chiang Rai here in Long Beach is always worth it, even if the wait is up to an hour. Checked out our old standby spot, cuz we didn't feel like waiting, Spicy Sugar, and it doesn't compare anymore. Wild.

I was born and raised in L.A., so I will always root for our OG teams. Yes, I'm a Galaxy fan. Though a casual one. Watching tonight's game in the background while I write, and man, gotta say it's a sleepy one. Where's the excitement? Nowhere to be seen...yet at the 67th minute against San Jose.

Today's hot yoga was too hot, and for the first time ever, after going at least twice a week for six months, I nearly passed out. Crazy. I still loved it and would do it all over again, even in this higher humidity and heat.

It was my first time doing "infernal hot pilates" tonight, and while it kicked my ass. I loved it. Crazy to be old enough to..look forward to working out? It's a whole new world.

Writing is not dead, and it will never die. It may get harder to find your flow as we doomscroll more (and more), but as soon as you feel it again. It's so damn powerful, and it will remind you that it's not going ANYWHERE and no AI or algorithm will ever defeat a good old-fashioned flow state.
"Silenced" is a masterpiece.
I am working late tonight and bumping Charles Bronson, and it's the first time listening to them in...a decade. One of the most underrated bands in American punk rock that pioneered the omnipotent PowerViolence sub-genre. Still holds up.
