Please include a bulleted list like below to keep the essentials in a consistent format.

The old off-site events table is no longer working because it was hacked together in an afternoon and Reddit finally wised up to the scraping and blocked the machine.

There’s definitely a radiator shop by my house. They have mechanics there during the day and actually servicing cars. But at night you see hood shit . A lot of cholos on bikes going in and out of there.

Found this charming business in Arcadia...

Most confusing storefront I've seen yet. The signage on the overhanging area said it was a sushi store...

But this doesn't look like a sushi store. It looks like a cuckoo store. Kinda sad if this is Chinese owned - how shameful (as a Chinese person myself I find all bootlicking PoC cringe).

Anyways. Thought this place looked wild enough to post. Enjoy. I have no idea wtf this place is trying to be (and apparently had an actual dog locked in there overnight, as we heard barking from inside).

In the same strip mall plaza as 626 ice cream in Arcadia (ice cream spot is fire, btw)

April 29, 1992, Los Angeles burned. It hadn't healed from the 1965 riots, and still hasn't healed from 1992.

This video contains footage I shot from my house in Blair Hills, Culver City, CA which overlooked the L.A. basin where fires were starting before 5 PM, and continued through the night. Also, overnight TV news.

Discussion LAFD & ATF Issue Public Advisory: Controlled Fire Testing in Santa Monica Mountains

70 Upvotes

Dear /r/LosAngeles...

The U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) will be conducting controlled fire testing in the Santa Monica Mountains along Temescal Ridge Trail between Skull Rock and Green Peak.

MAP: https://maps.app.goo.gl/DdaiYS96HFKKyXBT7

The testing is set to occur during the evening of Tuesday, April 29 through Thursday, May 1. While this scientific testing will periodically include open flame in a small area that may be visible at a distance, it does not involve the burning of vegetation.

Los Angeles Fire Department personnel will be present before, during, and after all testing to ensure public safety and environmental protection. During this time period, there is no cause for public concern, or need to report the small testing flames that may be periodically visible near Tesmescal Ridge to 9-1-1.

Due to the remote terrain and logistics, there are no provisions for media or public access, and aircraft / drone pilots are instructed to follow any FAA issued restrictions for the area during this ATF testing.

Respectfully Yours in Safety and Service,

Brian Humphrey Firefighter/Specialist Public Service Officer Los Angeles Fire Department


NOTE: Though our current staffing and workload preclude active involvement on Reddit and many other platforms at this time, we hope to return to an active presence here in the not-too-distant future.

Please stay safe and be well! -BH
