Official Southern California Thread

Hollywood hasn’t had electricity since halftime of the Buc’s game yesterday.

Living in the dark ages over here.

 

I’m at blue heaven, waiting in line to get my dad his first dose. Just a remarkable example of coordination and organization.

 

What are restaurant/beach restrictions currently + what are they likely to be in April

looking at San Diego trip end of April

 

generally - you can go to restaurants for outdoor seating and take out

beaches are open and have been for a long time

 

Don't eat indoors, even if you can.

 

Newsom is just hanging himself at this point:

I'm on the city council call tomorrow - should be an interesting one to say the least.

 

pretty sure i talked about newsome being a fucking dipshit a few years ago in here

sucks it took a pandemic for it to come to light

 

Outdoor seating open everywhere. Some restaurants allowing people to sit inside at tables and the bar.

I’ve also seen a couple bars open with no food service. Beaches are open.

 

Lopez looking rough.

 

Perfect. Yea just wanted to make sure there'd be places with outdoor options rather than everything being to-go. And the beaches obviously.

 

He's really been a dumbass during the pandemic. There's not much worse than politicians making up rules then thinking they don't apply to them

 

Garcetti is arguably worse - and our council is one foot out the door so doesn't care at all. Really fucking annoying.

The CRA (California Restaurant Association) sued for the county to provide reasoning or proof of potential harm to justify the deviation from the state plan when they banned outdoor dining. The county had zero evidence of anything as proven in court - but still appealed which kept us closed for outdoor even longer.

Clown show.

Got my vaccine by signing up here. Plenty of open spots right now. All you need is ID, insurance card, and proof of employment. They don’t seem to care where you work or what your occupation is. But I signed up under ‘entertainment’ as my profession

 

Are you sure they won't ask for proof of employment at the site? I have escorted a few older family members at various sites and they required proof of eligibility.

 

Also, the available appointments have already passed. I did reg'd for an expired appointment and then chose to reschedule for waiting list. Maybe they'll alert me to an available dose. I'm willing to travel.

 

My wife got on last night and got us both appointments for today. I would keep checking appointments for a new day and then just register again

 

they ask for employment but I work for a production company and they took it. My wife doesn't even have a job right now, just showed an offer letter from last year and they accepted it.

 

Are you seeing this screen when you click on the link?

 

Have some fun protests and vandalism in my hood at the moment while having to walk several women a few blocks.

Another day in Hollywood.

 

Yes, but all of the 3/13 times have already passed.

 

Big pimpin', huh?

 

staff - nothing interesting

 

I'm pretty hardcore on making sure female staff are walked to their car when they leave and sometimes they will park pretty far away.

Hollywood isn't exactly the safest area.

 

I would just wait till tomorrow and keep checking for the site to update

 

my friends have been telling me besides ID nothing else, they aren’t asking questions or probing deeper beyond the questionnaire online u fill out for the appointment

 

Just get an appointment if you can. If you are an essential worker then you won't be turned away

 

This stolen Uhaul chase is wild. Truck is on fire.

 

Where are you watching it? Can't find it on TV or youtube for some reason.

 

It’s over. Ended just before 7:00am

 

Finally found a youtube upload - pretty damn ridiculous thus far.

 

Anyone into pickleball or know of good spots to play? Just started playing and realize I need a challenge somewhere between playing my wife and getting smoked by the regulars at Darby Park

 

Absolutely beautiful driving down PCH to Laguna this afternoon. Days like today are why we live here.

 

Yea. It’s fun… make sure you get in line at least a hour earlier than they start letting folks in. Depending how much you love Lord Huron

make sure to bring a blanket and chairs that are low enough enough you don’t get in peoples way of their view. And bring food and drinks of your choice for sure.

 

I haven’t done the Hollywood Cemetery in two years but it’s a good time. I used to live near it so an easy trek

 

Also, depending on where you are. Drive and don’t waste money on an Uber. You can find parking, and they offer parking I believe. But I always found street parking

 

Yeah, everything fsuNizz said. I've been to probably ~3-4 concerts there and a bunch of the Cinespia screenings at the cemetery. Key is to drive and park a couple blocks away or Uber drop off a couple blocks away - parking on-site and Uber drop-off on-site is a cluster. Also, people get to these things insanely early, its almost like a 'running of the bulls' situation at gate opening and there's a huge queue. If its a doors at 7, show at 8 type situation, I'd get there at least 6:15ish to line up in the queue. There were a couple cemetery movie screenings where we'd get there at like 7:10 with a 7 PM door opening and there would already be hardly any spots to put our blankets down.

Not sure how much has changed post-COVID but bring plenty of food/drinks and enjoy it

 

Lord Huron would have a concert at a cemetary

 

I saw taxi driver there, but it was so long ago, I don’t have anything else to add

 

Last screening I saw was Chinatown a couple years ago. We showed up a hour early and still like 40 people in front of us I think.

 

I’m just saying their songs generally fit with the cemetary mood

 

maybe The W on Vine, but prob need to Uber
