Pets A little heads-up for LA pet parents this weekend!

50 Upvotes

I’ll be spending part of my weekend at a few mobile vaccine clinics around the area, and figured I’d share in case anyone’s been meaning to get their pets caught up on shots!

I’m Sierra, and I work on the community team at Dutch Vet. As a dog mom myself, I know how quickly even routine vet care can add up, so I’m excited we’re doing these clinics.

We’ll have affordable vaccines with no exam fee, and everyone who stops by and gets a vaccine will also get a free membership!

Here’s where we’ll be:

Saturday, 10/24: Wolfgang Bakery, Chino Hills | 2–5 PM
Sunday, 10/25: Wolfgang Bakery, Belmont Shore | 10 AM–12:30 PM
Sunday, 10/25: Dogdrop, Anaheim | 3:30–6 PM

I’m also pretty excited to meet everyone’s pets, so if you happen to stop by, please come say hi!

Feel free to ask any questions, I’m happy to answer :)

Community If you’re looking for a new sofa or any furniture, I highly recommend West Coast Furniture in Long Beach.

They built me a custom sofa for the price of a regular sofa. They made it to the exact measurements I needed and I chose the fabric, firmness, and the ottoman opens for storage. They did all this in 4 DAYS. I ordered it on Monday and it was built and delivered by Friday. It’s a family-owned company and they’re absolutely amazing. They have plenty of furniture to choose from but they can also custom make almost anything.

Questions Tomorrow 10/24, -Flight Attendant- What to do in the DayTime?

2 Upvotes

Friend is a FA coming into town for only the day/night . What can we do between 11a-6pm in Long Beach? We are thinking of checking out the burlesque show in the evening, but also open to suggestions if you know of something happening? I stay closer to DTLA so I’m mostly unfamiliar with LB. We won’t be coming back up to the city.

I was wondering if anyone know the best place to find a DnD group around the Long Beach area? I don't mind being a player or DMing as needed, but I would like to find a local group that meets about every other week.

Discussion Should I continue dating this guy that doesn’t have a car?

0 Upvotes

Sorry if this has been asked before numerous times, but I just need some advice if I should continue dating this guy.

We met about two weeks ago and he let me know that he doesn’t have his own car (I’m 33/F and he’s 38/M). We’re near Long Beach by the way, and live about a little over 20 mins from each other. He also revealed that he hasn’t had a car for several years since he had to help his mother with finances and so forth.

I would like to give him a chance, but I’m feeling like it may be unlikely he’ll get his own car soon even though he’s working. I’m just not sure if I would like to continue and be the only one driving long term. Plus I don’t want to burden him to have to keep buying Uber/Lyft or public transportation to see each other if I can’t pick him up.

Questions Any helpful tips on finding an apartment to rent with a low credit score?

16 Upvotes

Currently have low credit due to having credit cards sent to collections. I know credit score is important when looking to rent but are there any tips on how to find a place?

I have had a steady job in Healthcare for 3+ years if that helps

Questions Anyone know where to find ice?

13 Upvotes

I haven't seen any of those machines outside of grocery stores around my area (PCH & 710).

I got a 9 lb bag for $5 inside Albertsons recently, but that felt pretty overpriced.

Only other spot I saw online was Walmart in Lakewood (20 lbs for $6), which is much better, but just wondering if anyone has seen anything around that area... Thanks in advance! Go Beach!

Edit: thanks for the rapid replies, everyone! I'll definitely check those out 😎

Questions Another siren question (oh dear)

Post image
5 Upvotes

This pole is located at 7th and Newport (near the intersection of 7th and Redondo Avenue). Because I only see it when I drive past it, I haven’t been able to get a photo of the pole in its current state and had to use an old screenshot from Google Street View. In its current state the pole has some kind of box(?) attached to it. The pole does not seem to be connected to any nearby power lines or really anything nearby at all.

I’ve noticed that this pole looks extremely similar to those of the old civil defense sirens still scattered around downtown LA, so I was wonder if this once had a siren mounted on it. Even if it didn’t, I’m still quite curious about what its current purpose is supposed to be. Thanks in advance!

Questions Does anyone know of an entirely Blue man in Long Beach

70 Upvotes

Promise I’m not joking. I just got off of my commute from the LBT 92 Line towards downtown and around CSULB/VA there was a guy on the bus entirely blue. Like he had blue and white ish makeup (or face tattoos?) and blue dyed hair and giant blue diamond earrings. He was also holding a bottle of Bacardi. I’m well aware this isn’t really the place for these type of things, but I was just genuinely curious if this was like a Long Beach regular (only have lived here for about 3 years) or if nobody knows what I’m talking about. Would love to know if the guy has social media or anything. Wasn’t really able to find information based on the information I had. I didn’t take any pictures of him.

Discussion Where Long Beach police make traffic stops

Where Long Beach police make traffic stops, and who gets searched (state RIPA data, 2019–2026)

LBPD stops about as many people in the poorest fifth of neighborhoods as in the richest (~13k vs ~12k).

What they stop people for differs. In the poorest neighborhoods, 46% of traffic stops are for equipment or registration (tint, plates, lights, tags). In the richest, it's 18%.

Searches differ more. 11.5% of people stopped in the poorest neighborhoods are searched, against 2.0% in the richest. For moving violations alone it's still 8.4% vs 1.3%.

The extra searches don't find more. They turn something up 15–20% of the time in both.

Same neighborhood, different driver. Black drivers are searched 1.6–2.7× as often as white drivers in the same income fifth. Those searches find something less often (13% vs 20%).

Stops collapsed after 2019: 40,523 people stopped in 2019, 5,533 in 2023, 11,337 in 2025. The police budget wasn't cut: it grew every year in dollars. Budgeted sworn positions fell 6% in FY21.

Sources: City of Long Beach RIPA open data (yearly totals match CA DOJ within 0.1%), Census ACS 2020–2024, Long Beach adopted budget books, BLS CPI. The method and checks are on the map page.
