#USA #SiliconValley #LA #LosAngeles #PaloAlto #History #Marxism #Socialism: "In Palo Alto, the city that grants Harris his sociogeographic frame is less expansive than Los Angeles, Davis’s subject in his two best-known books, City of Quartz: Excavating the Future in Los Angeles (1990) and Ecology of Fear: Los Angeles and the Imagination of Disaster (1998), but all three books share a method. They each express a pair of concentric, dialectic stories in a single California place. Both authors articulate a history of their chosen site in such a way that the place in turn articulates a history ranging far beyond itself. These are all books about how the absolute aberrance of somewhere paradoxically enables its culture to permeate everywhere: in one sense, one could not imagine a book more clearly “about” Los Angeles than City of Quartz or “about” Palo Alto than Palo Alto, yet it would feel a reductive misdescription to call either of them so.
Davis writes in City of Quartz that “Los Angeles in this instance is, of course, a stand-in for capitalism in general. The ultimate world-historical significance—and oddity—of Los Angeles is that it has come to play the double role of utopia and dystopia for advanced capitalism.” One need only swap the place names to be left with a perfect descriptor of what Harris seeks to demonstrate about his own subject-city."

The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence are an tremendously effective support and care group and they have served the LGBTQ+ Community for DECADES. they have shown the most charity, love, healing, compassion, and support for people in need than any other group I know. Why Senator Marco Rubio of Florida feels the need to harass them disgusts and angers me. Haters like him, and the others who complained to the Baseball Commissioner, are so rigid in their thinking they could never understand the beauty of the sisters' humor+love ways. And why should he even care what happens in Los Angeles. FUCK OFF HATERS!

Two weeks ago, Los Angeles public health officials warned people to ASSUME "tranq" - the flesh-eating street drug adulterant - is in #losangeles .

Hi #fediverse. Hi #mastodon friends. I need some assistance finding legal resources for #Alzheimers and #dementia, and I’m hoping you amazing people will find this and help me.
My beloved (God)Mother has early onset. It’s just starting. Now it’s time for us to get ready for the long term.
I need to find a good lawyer who can help us put her long term care wishes into place. Bonus points if you are in #SanDiego or #LA #LosAngeles. Please reach out if you see this.
Thanks guys. 🙏🏽💜
🎬 "Godard & Me"
▶️ Spring, 1985, I took this shot at the #NuArt #LA.
I tracked the director down in Paris (with help from a bestie at Columbia) and sent him a C-print of the image about 1988. Months later I got an obviously-from-Europe-size brown envelope. The director sent me a #Polaroid of the framed image in his home with a note card. Both lost.
