One of the weirder parts I find living in Los Angeles is that my grocery store receipt has a coupon on the back for a local cannabis dispensary.

It’s funny if you call PayPal or visa lines and bring this up asking why they claim β€œadult illustrations” is against their regulations but betting on the death of kids is totally fine. They don’t have an answer.

In fact yall should call them at least once a day with this :)

When Gavin Newsom says "the Democrats need to be more culturally normal" with "less focus on pronouns" what he's actually saying is "the trannies aren't normal and don't normalize them."

Love that PokΓ©mon posts news so late into the night. It’s after midnight and I’m crying nostalgia tears of joy on my couch. Child me is so happy.

Los Angeles Police Department Encourages School
Attendance Amid Recent Downtown Activity
Los Angeles: In light of recent activity in the downtown area, the Los Angeles Police Department would like to take this opportunity to remind parents and students of the importance of staying in school.
School attendance is mandatory in the City of Los Angeles and there may be legal consequences for parents and students for:
β€’ Day time Curfew violations - It is unlawful for any minors under 18 to be in public places, streets, or amusement spots during school hours (typically 8:30 am
to 1:30 pm. The only exception includes being with a parent, authorized school activities, or emergencies.
β€’ California Education Code violations:
β€’ Mandates that all children between the ages of six and eighteen, unless exempted, must attend a full-time public day school for the full designated school day.
β€’ Middle and high school students are legally permitted one excused absence per calendar year to participate in a "civic or political event," provided advance school notification (emphasis added).
β€’ Additionally, Los Angeles Unified School District policy states that three or more unexcused absences or tardies of 30 minutes or more, can trigger a School Attendance Review Board (SARB) intervention for disciplinary action.
Parents and students are also reminded that presence at school promotes intellectual growth. It becomes more difficult to fill knowledge gaps with student absences. Attendance builds good habits and healthy routines; and provides structure and stability. Lastly, school attendance also increases student safety, which includes safety resources provided by the Los Angeles Unified School District.

Any adult that collects or picks up a child and transports them to participate in any illegal activities may be responsible for Contributing to the Delinquency of a Minor and is subject to arrest and prosecution. This law applies to actions like providing drugs/alcohol to minors, promoting truancy, and for parents failing to exercise reasonable supervision.
Community members, parents, and students may contact their local Community Police Station of the Los Angeles Police Department for additional guidance specific to their community.

The LAPD is citing truancy laws in an attempt to squash the ongoing school walkouts against ICE. The LAPD is also threatening to arrest any parents or adults who support the kids in their acts of civil disobedience.

Glad to say that Super Space Sheriff Gavan Infinity had a really good first outing. Kamen Rider Zeztz didn’t have to do me personally so dirty this week, though. #SuperHeroTime

Love that this happens at 1:30 in the morning. And the return window closed 11 days ago. Also the one time I don’t save the warranty info 😭. I know Anker has a solid warranty but I needed to save the box. Woops.

So β€œglad” that my wife’s cousin (a fed) got us a ring camera as a wedding gift nearly 4 years ago, and even more glad it’s been sitting in a box the whole time.
