For Sale/Free Anyone want a monstera?

56 Upvotes

I have a big 4ft x 4ft monstera that needs a new home! Dm me

I have a toddler and he keeps getting into it, otherwise I'd keep her. She's healthy with new growth. I have it attached to a trellis, but you could easily attach it to something else.

I put her in the side yard temporarily today and she got a bit burned. I've never had that happen before, but I'm sure you can just clip off those fronds

DM me if interested! We can meet up somewhere

EDIT: Thanks for all the replies! The first person who dm'd me followed through and picked her up this morning. Can I just say how much I love this community? Posting on FB marketplace would've been a bombardment of wishy washy dm's with no one actually committing. I'm so glad this plant has a happy new home, and I'm so glad to be in a city with so many plant nerds as enthusiastic as me hah...I got SO many dm's it was hard to keep up!

As for the pup, he's baking in the sun right now in baked potato mode 🐶 he ain't going anywhere!

Housing Landlord is selling our Apt Complex

41 Upvotes

I’ve been in the process of building my credit back up bc as we know, it’s hard to even be considered for a place to live when your score is bad (i’ve been so rudely turned away and spoken down to) so I was very fortunate to find my current spot, the landlords being husband and wife who also lived in the complex, very warm and intentional vibes. They were willing to look past my bad credit and just asked for double the deposit (pretty standard IMO) as they saw I had the income to sustain what they were asking for. Well, I JUST marked my first year living here and came home to signs in all our doors that Ernst & Haas Management will be taking over. i’m bummed to say the least… concerned about how things may change. i’m currently on a month to month and have plans to move in December, but still…

So if anyone currently lives in properties managed by them, I would love to hear your experiences.

thanks in advance!

Food Local LB Espresso Bean Roaster?

14 Upvotes

My wife recently bought an espresso machine. Her birthday is tomorrow and thought I should buy her a bag of high quality beans. Obviously I could go to Starbucks or Coffee Bean. Just curious if there are any local roasters that you guys have tried and liked.

I think that makes a better gift than a popular name brand.

Thanks

Road between 2nd and Loynes was completely blocked off with a big police presence. I’m sure some sort of accident but I see nothing about it anywhere.

Questions Long shot: does anyone have dashcam footage of the accident that happened on Ocean & Elm on Monday July 20th?

Upvotes

We were driving on ocean and some dude suddenly turned left from the middle lane (we were driving next to him same speed in the lane left) trying to make it onto Elm and they hit the side of our car.

Does anyone happen to be near this accident and has dashcam footage? I would appreciate it!

Questions Could someone recommend a children’s dentist?

8 Upvotes

My oldest, M14 is autistic and needs a good deal of dental work, my youngest m11 has add. They’ve gotten better about sitting still but I’d still would prefer a provider that has experience with non neurotypical kids. I’m near poly high but am willing to drive some for an understanding practice.

Edit: thanks guys 3 solid choices now I just need to check which accept my insurance once regular people business hours come around. (As I type this at work at 5am)

Questions Seeking dashcam footage — 405 North near Palo Verde Ave / San Gabriel River, Tuesday 7/21 ~6:05 PM

Upvotes

On Tuesday, July 21 around 6:05 PM, I was driving northbound on the 405, close to the San Gabriel River crossing and about half a mile before the Palo Verde Ave exit, when a large truck tire came across the lanes and struck my car (a white Porsche Macan) broadside. The tire kept rolling and continued down the freeway afterward.

Traffic was heavy, so many drivers likely saw it or caught it on dashcam — especially anyone who saw where the tire came from or the vehicle that lost it.

If you saw it happen, have it on dashcam, know where the tire ended up, called 911 about it, or can confirm it with the police, please reach out via DM. Also, if you know of another incident nearby around that time that might be related — a truck losing a tire, another car hit, debris reported — please let me know. Even a partial detail would help enormously. Thank you.

Food Breakfast on Monday for large group Recs

3 Upvotes

hi!

my 40th birthday is coming up and a group of us are going on a cruise! we dock back monday morning, and, as that’s my actual birthday, I thought it would be nice to treat whomever is still down to keep going, to breakfast- as a thank you for coming on the trip.

soooooo any good recs that are open on a monday, hopefully take a reservation, and open to about 20-30 people?

ideally the would serve booze. but since it’s not a traditional brunch i know that may be rare; so totally open to somewhere more mom and pop / diner-y, if the food is good and the vibes are right!

only restriction is that it be in long beach- the closer to the harbor the better. i’m trying to make it as easy for everyone as possible. i don’t want to ask them to drive too far out of the way.

thank you!!!

Discussion ISO local medical/graduate/ professional school study partners

3 Upvotes

Hi all! 26 M here, back home for the summer currently studying for Step 1 (first of three board exams for med school) and wondering if there are any fellow medical students (but open to other graduate level students or maybe residents studying for step 3? lol) in the area that would like to get together for study sessions. I have seen some people studying for the same exam at various libraries but unfortunately never traded info. I prefer a library setting because that is where I am most focused but also open to a cafe environment if you know any good ones. DM me if you would like to set something up, my only responsibility right now is to study so basically available whenever!

3 Upvotes

As the title states. Bought a storage unit. It came with a couch and queen bed set. I have a 3 piece sectional that is brown and a queen bed set. On the head board, there is a small corner that got damaged if the piece didn't break off, it can be glued. I suggest cleaning prior to using. Its free to someone who is in need or if you just wanna give me something, ill take $20 for either the sectional or the bed set.
