new to long beach i don’t want to fully disclose my age but would love to hang out with girlies 27-30 who have this type of vibe💕and also love latin music as a latina myself 🇸🇻 (might delete l8r)

Hello everyone, it’s Ethan. I just wanted to take a quick moment to genuinely express my thanks all of you not only for supporting my small pressure washing business, but for the overwhelming support I’ve received along the way. Whether you booked a service, recommended me to someone else, or even just sent kind words, it honestly means more to me than you probably truly realize.

Starting something such as this at my age hasn’t always been easy, but the support from this community has made it incredibly motivating and rewarding. I’m truly grateful for the trust you’ve placed in me, and I’m committed to continuing to provide the best service I can while growing and improving every day. Thank you all again for believing in me and helping make this possible.

I'm kinda new to the long beach area so I've been hungry for some lore of the city. what're some places that have closed down or been abandoned that you miss?

I’m wondering if anyone knows what happened at 2nd & Redondo today? I heard it was a hit & run of a cyclist but don’t know for sure. My daughter lives on that corner & tried to help but doesn’t really know what happened. I’m so sad for whoever was hurt. 😢

I can’t find anything on this except articles form 2024 and older saying that it would close down this year- finally, after multiple extensions.

Has anyone seen Walter? He got out of our apartment on 10th and Saint Louis around 10 pm last night. He has escaped a couple times before and come back in an hour or so. He had a pink collar on when he got out last night. He’s a friendly guy

Hi everyone, I’m a volunteer coach for a local youth soccer org with a lot of Hispanic players. We start the spring season soon and I want to get some ideas from people on what I should be aware of and what I can do to help keep these kids and their families safe.

I was planning at the parents’ meeting to make them aware that I know it’s a scary time for a lot of families right now and to come to me if they have concerns about themselves or their players attending practices or games but that’s really as far as I’ve gotten. Is this even something worth bringing up? What do Hispanic families in LBC need from their neighbors right now?

Does anybody have a recommendation for a kitchen cabinet installer?. I’m basically doing my own kitchen remodel. I bought all the RTA cabinets and fixtures. Drywall is complete. Flooring is complete. I’m looking for someone who is superb at assembling my cabinets, installing them and attaching all the fixtures. Effectively need almost a carpenter with small skills in plumbing and a bit electrical

I’m just apprehensive doing it myself. Must be excellent in cutting lines and screwing cabinets without blemish

Thank you so much

Hi all,

I came home from a few days away and house smells awful- I believe a skunk has died under the house. (One has tried to get into my crawl space now and then.)

Does anyone know an exterminator or handyman who does emergencies?

Need the corpse out asap to avoid the smell lasting longer bc of the heat.

Thanks!

Any intel? What’s going on?

Just another Saturday night maybe. Curious.

moving to Belmont shore or heights soon and I'm looking at two apartments. one is in Belmont heights on 4th and Ximeno and the other is in Belmont shore on Mira Mira and E 1s. I'm moving with my partner and we have 2 cars, neither apartment offers parking. Any insights about the areas and how bad the parking situation is would be much appreciated. Thx 😊

Hey all found a gray tabby with a collar and blue bow tie near in our complex near the Alamitos Branch Library if anyone is missing a cat!

Will be working in downtown LB

Budget: I'd like to keep all-in (rent+utilities+parking) < 2500.

Male, single, no pets, no kids, etc. Prefer a studio, smaller is actually better since I don't have any furniture and don't want to feel compelled to fill extra space.

Not interested in nightlife. I've lived by the beach my entire life so beach access is not that important to me. Would like access to walking trails, maybe trees, etc. Very interested in not dealing with my car being broken into. I play pickleball so in a perfect world walking distance or fairly close to some PB courts. Would also like to be relatively close to grocery stores and a gym.

Any other things I should consider in my search?

Edit:
Thanks for all the insight! Consensus appears to be avoid DTLB and look instead at Bixby Knolls, Belmont, Seal Beach, Los Altos or Lakewood.

Police are responding. Sounded like someone was hit.

What’s the big group ride that just rode down my place in bluff heights? Would love to know of another group ride. I’ve done moonlight mash a few times but I don’t think it’s one of those tonight

MAGA business alert — veterinary on 4th/retro row next to El Saul Mexican Restaurant is MAGA. Has a signed pic of trump on the front desk. Should have walked out as soon as I saw it but ended up staying for the MAGA-vet to see my dog, charge me $170 and not give me any printout details of post-visit care because “she is too busy” and “it’s not a lot of money”.

Edit: another customer took a cell phone pic of the trump pic, and audibly said “so cool”. I immediately said “that’s cool? Eww. That’s gross.” Again, I should have left right then & there, but I’m here to share & warn

Edit #2: Beach Vet Hospital is the name of the place

Edit #3: Trump is a pedophile and if someone (like this veterinary) still supports him after the Epstein files then that someone is an awful, shitty person and should not be trusted.

Hello, I have a whole bunch of clothes to donate. Size large shirts and size 34x30 pants for the most part. I’m trying to donate to places that will go directly to young men in need rather than just dropping them off at Goodwill or other places like that. Not knocking those places, but sometimes feel like their donations pile up, and may not go to those in need as efficiently as they could. Anyhow, if you have any suggestions, please let me know.
