This post referenced a podcast episode about Measure A I recorded with Scott Frazier but had not posted anywhere. "Where is the podcast," people asked, rubbing their tummies. They were hungry for the podcast! Well it's at the link in my bio now

This was the day eight years ago that I started trying to learn and do more locally in LA. It was hugely good for me and I think everyone should do it however they can. It is not a "retreat." Wrote about it at the link in bio

George Gascon lost the LA DA race after being nationally spit-roasted for crime, even though it was relatively low and falling. So I was very shocked to look back at the '92 DA race -- when crime was exploding -- and find that nobody talked about crime *at all*. ~link in bio~

LA is wrapping up its eight-year plan to build new housing right now. Lots of city leaders are pretending otherwise, but it's going to fail hugely and they know it. I wrote about some of the people and the policy behind why. Yes it's at the (everyone goes crazy) LINK! IN! BIO!

Went by one of the old Skid Row Housing Trust buildings that was sold to a developer. Two tenants were locked out because their keycards failed, one with a dog in his room. No staff on site to help for two days. They were all getting evicted because of black mold. (link in bio)
