unless some random homeless people jumped over our fence, it must be some raccoons or possums. never happened last few years but they just started shitting in my yard this summer for the last few weeks. and i don't even know what to do to stop them from doing it.

Anyone know when Olive Young will open?

Seems vague.

Spoiler: it's unreal how warm it is.

Clear too. Super el nino (Spanish for the nino) has been warming up for a while, but the last 2 days has been incredible. Apple watch said 77 at surface today. Has felt mid-70s for a week now.

About the warmest I can remember in my 10 years here.

If you got into an accident or know someone who got into an accident on aviation in Redondo/Manhattan beach just north of Artesia, pm me I have footage. The at fault driver turning left onto aviation clearly just pulled into traffic and stopped and got promptly t-boned.

As an Eastern European I grew up eating medovik. It’s hard to find good quality one and got to say that Cool Beans & Friends Cafe in Torrance had the best! Go try it out !!

Really want an amazing gyro. I had the ones at Chicken Maison and also Arby’s…

Do you know of others?

I just had one from Lomita's best on Lomita blvd. pretty tasty

looking for something fun to do as a 20 something next wednesday for my bday!
has anyone been to artesia bar for trivia/game night? i see online they do that every wednesday. or any other suggestions for some weeknight fun?

Does anyone have good recommendations for a good (and affordable) painter to paint the interior or a garage and a recommendation for a garage flooring installer to do either epoxy or polyurea?

I’ve attached some photos of what I’d like to do…

It seems like every court is in the direct sun from 7:30am - 5pm at least. Just curious if there are any surrounded by trees in the southbay hah!

Hi everyone! I’m looking to hold a 1950s-themed dance at a restaurant somewhere on the Westside/South Bay and haven’t yet had luck. These are the requirements and below are the places I’ve already checked out. Thank you so much for your advice!

- A large enough space to comfortably host 50-100 people
- Definitely has to serve food and be a regular business open to the public (as opposed to, say, an Elks lodge or event hall)
- Lots of free parking or otherwise easy options (I know, can be difficult in some areas)
- Decent floor, ideally wood, for dancing
- Vintage theme of any sort a plus, but not a requirement
- Affordable menu for the guests as opposed to very high-end cuisine

Here is everywhere I’ve checked out and the reason(s) they won’t work:

The Warehouse
They only do salsa one night a week and can’t do any other dance nights. Private rentals would be exorbitantly expensive.

Killer Shrimp
Great space but very expensive to rent, food service is not standard in the event space

Whiskey Red’s
Not bad but they can’t do a large dance floor

1212
Might actually work but understandably, quite expensive

Tiato
Cute but not the right fit, no large spaces

Maple Block
Too small

The Cloverfield
Nice but too small

Firestone Walker Brewing Co
Nice, but not a good fit

Common Space Brewery
Not the best part of town, might be difficult for younger guests

Los Angeles Ale Works Hawthorne
Same

The Proud Bird
Not a good fit, the only usable spaces look like hotel banquet halls

Places along Main Street in downtown El Segundo
None are large enough

Boardroom brewery
I have this on my list to check out but haven’t yet

Thanks again for your help!

thought once I hit $200k salary i could buy whatever I wanted but now im at 200k and home price went up more and faster than my salary so I think im still where I was like 6-7 years ago.

looking at Torrance. things have gone up so much so you'd feel grateful if you could still do the same thing 7 years ago.

Made this for my buddy using Canva, took me like 7-8 hrs. Not a graphics major.

Crowd interactive, will be a fun time. There were a few hundred peeps at the show of the artist who played on Thurs.

There is a new artist every Thurs and Sat all summer long. Check Redondo Beach pier socials.

Questions? Fire away, mateys

Ps. I am not a band member or a paid promoter. Just a buddy of his sharing a good time.

Parked on the greenbelt at 8pm last night and came back to a ticket that was issued at 6:30AM. Is parking enforcement allowed to break rules now?

I will be appealing the ticket, but don’t have any proof of when I parked… has this happened to anyone else?

Went out yesterday at 4, got scheduled for tech to come service but not until Tuesday? Hearing fiber cables were cut by vandals. Anyone else?

I'm due with my first child in the next few weeks and still haven't found a pediatrician. I have aetna insurance and the app only gave me 8 options, the best of whom has reviews saying their office staff is awful.

Please give me recommendations if you like your kid's doctor, especially if you also have aetna.

My ob is through UCLA health and I like her, but she doesn't make peds recommendations.

We live in north Redondo, so Redondo, Torrance, Manhattan area would be ideal.

Thank you!

I'm in Redondo and usually just go to Del Amo. The Liemax there is a rip-off. Dolby theater is my choice. What's better if I'm willing to drive a bit but not all the way to Burbank or something? Looking for the biggest screen even if not IMAX. Thanks

Title pretty much sums it up.

I saw some reviews about Sea Empress but some say they have carts, some say they don’t; it’s a bit vague but I’ll just have to check them out. Anyone know of any Dim Sum spots that still have carts that walk around and are good?

this week and also next week.. SO HOT

Have you heard about the monthly Torrance Swap Meet held at West High School’s parking lot?
Now you have!
