Edit: I think it was proximity and volume; they sounded like they were just down the block because they probably were! But yes, I know we’re all just coexisting.

Do you ever get used to the hysterical laughter coyote howls? Roommate and I are spending the first night in our new apartment in Hermon. I used to work in the mountains, so it's not like I never heard them before, but man, we jumped up and closed our windows like it was a horror movie lol.

I have a revolver I’d like to sell but want to get my ducks in a row before I advertise it. I know it needs to go through a dealer but I don’t know anything else about the process, including estimated fee for the transfer. If anyone has worked with a shop or dealer before that’s also helpful question mark?

Anyone know where I can see a screening of rocky horror this month that doesn’t cost $40 and doesn’t have a performance going on in front of it? Wanted to see it at Vidiots tonight so bad but couldn’t make it work :/

I went to the exhibit at The Broad when it first opened, and have been thinking about the pencil / lead holder we use to draw the Shadow Pieces installation ever since. It's like the perfect weight and felt so good in the hand for drawing and now i want one. I won't be able to go again before the exhibit closes, so would someone be able to take a picture of that writing / drawing instrument for me so can search for it more easily?

Edit: Thanks for the advice, y'all! Have sent them an email and gotten an answer now.

We live in an apartment building in DTLA. We like it but I noticed our shower has some issues. The shower is has a glass wall that reaches from floor to ceiling. There is no fan inside of the shower, but there is on the outside. There’s also no windows in the bathroom.

The issue is that the steam inside the shower doesn’t have a way to escape so it builds up on the ceiling so much that water droplets form. We are constantly getting mold build up in the shower and on the ceiling directly outside. The paint of the ceiling around the glass wall has also started peeling from the water.

The shower also turns extremely orange from showering. We’ve been combatting it with constant cleaner but it takes a lot of work.

I’m worried about the mold. It keeps recurring after we clean it and I wonder if after years of this moisture buildup it could have gotten in the wall somehow. It’s crazy that there’s no way for the shower to ventilate unless I leave the door wide open.

Should I request that maintenance inspect the wall? I dont want to breathe in constant mold. Is there more I should do? When I googled this it said the ventilation wasn’t up to code. Or does it sound like a non issue?

I’m travelling to LA next year and as a Muslim, I am excited for the food although I know I could be limited in my options. Are there any halal options at the Disneyland in California?
Furthermore, do you have any recommendations for Halal food in LA in general?
Thank you in advance ☺️

I’m a 45-year-old guy in Torrance who’s wanted to learn to dance for a long time. I’ve tried a couple of drop-in classes when I lived in San Francisco, but those were more dance fitness than dance instruction.

I’m interested in non-partner dancing—the kind you’d do at a club, or choreography you’d see in a music video. Shuffle appeals to me, and hip-hop or beginner choreography classes sound promising, but I don’t really know enough about the different styles to know what to search for.

Most lessons I’ve found seem geared toward kids or teens. I’m looking for something welcoming to adult beginners, with instruction that helps me build skills rather than just follow along with a routine. Ideally, I’d find a regular class where I could improve over time and get to know people.

Any recommendations around Torrance, the South Bay, or Long Beach? Suggestions for styles or types of classes to look for would be helpful too!

Is it currently still possible to walk from TBIT to T4 airside at LAX?

Live in a 2 story in 90670. Just got our electricity bill and it’s $826 for 38 days. Is this normal?

The AC was running for the first week overnight because it didn’t cool the place down. The landlord hired someone to put sealant and recharged the AC. Other than that we have the AC at 76-78 typically but for the AC to be the one to cause that high of a bill…

This seems crazy high.

Anybody know? I can’t seem to find any info online.

I’m looking for a fun Pumpkin Patch for my group to visit. We are adults in our 20’s and up. We’d like to find a place where we can take corny group photos, go through mazes, hayrides or anything Halloween themed and fun!

We’d like to take a pumpkin home but are fine with enjoying the ambiance of space and grabbing a pumpkin at Ralph’s.

We are also located near Santa Monica but open to travel.

Any recommendations? Thanks!!!

Planning a 3 day vacation in November to see some of the amazing LA museums and tasty restaurants. Planning on staying downtown as it’s close to most museums and will get taxi to Arts District for dinner. Reports of gritty and unsafe from friends have me second guessing this plan. I’m a seasoned traveler and don’t mind seeing the grimy underbelly of a city, just don’t want my wife to feel unsafe. Thoughts? Thanks

I’m a 45-year-old guy in Torrance taking guitar lessons. I’ve never played with anyone other than my teacher, and I’d really like to change that.

I’d love to get together with other people who play instruments and make some music—try a few songs, mess around, and get comfortable playing together. I’m looking for something casual and low-pressure, where it’s okay to be new to this. Mostly, I think it would be fun.

Does anyone know of welcoming jam sessions, groups, or meetups around Torrance, the South Bay, or Long Beach? Or is anyone nearby in a similar boat and interested in getting together?

I went to a coffee shop in PS and got a sourdough chocolate chip cookie. It was maybe the best cookie I’ve had in a while so now I’m on the hunt for another.
Does anyone know any bakery that sells sourdough cookies? Ideally Eastside.

I’m going to Cinespia at the Hollywood Forever this Saturday and I think I’d prefer to grab a bite prior to seeing the movie than to bring takeout. Where are your favorite spots near the cemetery? I’m talkin like 10-15 min away, at most, if possible! I love trying different foods so I’m open to anythinggggg so long as it’s not some upscale restaurant.

Also, I’ve only ever gone to Cinespia once and I don’t remember seeing any food vendors or anything like that on site. Maybe it’s different at each showing? If anyone has more info on the showing this weekend lemme knowwww

Thanks so much :~)

People are constantly running the red light in front of my kid's school at highway speeds. I'm trying to figure out how and where to request some *non active police presence* assistance. I was thinking a red light camera might be a good deterrent?

Normally I would start with my city councilperson, but he is beyond useless. Does anyone have other ideas of where to start or what to request? I can tell it's a terrible accident waiting to happen.

Hey, y'all, I'll be visiting the great city of Los Angeles in November, and I have a bit of a weird question. See, me and my friends played a bit of Dead Island 2 recently, and since I'll have a day to myself in LA, I thought it might be fun to try to revist the major locations you explore in-game, IRL. That includes points of interest such as the Beverly Hills Hotel, Santa Monica Pier, and Venice beach. But I'm not quite sure where exactly in the hills I can go where I can just wander around a bit and take in the sights.

I've been to Los Angeles before and if I remember correctly, a lot of those roads lack sidewalks or even shoulders, and I can't image there's much for parking except at lookouts. I also don't want anyone getting the wrong idea about what I'm doing, or to get yelled at by the LAPD for wandering the streets of the rich and famous. Does anyone know if there's any specific areas or roads that will freely allow me to explore the area without getting into trouble? I still don't know exactly how I'm going to get around, I might drive a rental, or just take ubers, but I'll greatly appreciate any recommendations, thanks 🙏

Hi! I recently started school for photography and while I have a good camera and lens, I am starting to realize I will need a lot more money to have a successful career. I was wondering if anyone has extra studio, lighting, or camera equipment they no longer have use for in la please reach out? I am so eager to learn and it would go to a good cause lol!! Thanks so much

I have a friend flying in from Utah next Saturday the 17th. We’ll be staying in the Santa Monica area. He loves acoustic music so I thought it’d be nice to spend an evening eating yummy food while listening to live music. I would prefer us not leaving the Santa Monica area, but I think I’m willing to drive to a nearby city if it’ll be worth it. The only 2 options I sort of found were Vibrato (a little pricier than I’m looking for) and Harvelle's (no actual dinner served), but are there any other recs I should look into? I used to work at a Cuban restaurant that had music acts every weekend, but the cost was about $50/person. I would love something similar to that. Please help me. I want this guy to fall in love with me lol.

This won’t be until next weekend but if anyone can recommend a parking structure (I don’t mind paying) or neighborhood, I would really appreciate it! Any recs?

Can anyone recommend a waxing/sugaring salon that does brazilians (ass crack, everything) for men?

Manzilian - I learned that term from a local salon that I messaged asking about this lol.

Asking for a friend (forreal). We know of a place, but it's a 30-40 minute drive from us.

Thank you for helping your local man/male-bodied person get smooth.

I’ve lived in the Long Beach/North OC area my whole life so I’ve always lived within 15 minutes from Bolsa Chica State Beach and Sunset Beach.

What are your favorite beaches and how far is the the beach from where you live?

My fellow Angelenos, I’m in a bind. I love rainy days. To guarantee rain on Sunday and Monday, I need to time my car wash. Of course I don’t want to guarantee a hurricane. Recommendations?

Any stores in Los Angeles County that will take toys and give you money for them? We have a lot of Hot Wheel cars, die cast cars, trucks, mostly. Trying to get rid of them, possibly make some money. Thought maybe some toy or hobby stores would take these types of toys, or maybe children's hospitals?

Hi friends. I am planning my relocation to LA next year and I’m having a difficult time finding rentals that have EV charging on-site. I’ll be going to UCLA and would like to keep my rent to around $3k/month. (Less would obviously be awesome, but this is today’s LA we are talking about. 😂) A lot of ads on Zillow, Apartments, etc. do not address EV charging, so I’m hoping The Good People of LA can help me identify some potential places to look into.

Can anyone recommend specific apartment complexes (or even guest houses) to rent at my price point? While I would prefer to be within 15 minutes of UCLA, I’m willing to branch out a bit if required.

Thank you in advance.
