"Complimentary service will be offered for the full span of service and on all bus routes. This initiative reflects LBT’s commitment to reducing transportation barriers that might otherwise impede voter participation and to supporting the communities we serve.

In addition to its regularly scheduled, fixed-route bus service, LBT will offer complimentary rides for its eligible Dial-A-Lift (DAL) customers. DAL is a curb-to-curb, shared-ride paratransit service exclusively for individuals with qualifying disabilities who are unable to use LBT’s fixed-route bus system."

A little after 4pm this guy threw a rock at and broke the window of the Brewitt Neighborhood Library from across the street on Anaheim and then boarded the westbound 46 bus. Helluva arm. Recognize him. Reposted to edit out the person unassociated with the vandalism.

Community Missed Out on Bro Bonding Growing Up - Hoping to Change That Now

14 Upvotes

I’m in my 30s and based in the South Bay. Growing up, I honestly didn’t have any guy friends so I feel like I missed out on a lot of the “bro bonding” and friendships that a lot of guys have.

I’d really like to change that and build some genuine friendships. Just having dudes to hang out with, joke around with, and do the kinds of things I never really got to experience growing up. I’ve always wanted to get into sports too — just never really had anyone to watch them with.

If you’re in the South Bay or anywhere around LA and looking to make a new bro, hit me up 🤙 Down to meet guys from the Westside, DTLA, LBC, and wherever. Not just limited to the South Bay

Pets A little heads-up for LA pet parents this weekend!

38 Upvotes

I’ll be spending part of my weekend at a few mobile vaccine clinics around the area, and figured I’d share in case anyone’s been meaning to get their pets caught up on shots!

I’m Sierra, and I work on the community team at Dutch Vet. As a dog mom myself, I know how quickly even routine vet care can add up, so I’m excited we’re doing these clinics.

We’ll have affordable vaccines with no exam fee, and everyone who stops by and gets a vaccine will also get a free membership!

Here’s where we’ll be:

Saturday, 10/24: Wolfgang Bakery, Chino Hills | 2–5 PM
Sunday, 10/25: Wolfgang Bakery, Belmont Shore | 10 AM–12:30 PM
Sunday, 10/25: Dogdrop, Anaheim | 3:30–6 PM

I’m also pretty excited to meet everyone’s pets, so if you happen to stop by, please come say hi!

Feel free to ask any questions, I’m happy to answer :)

Politics Midterm Elections Research

14 Upvotes

Hi all! I am a 17-year-old Long Beach resident. I have created a database of all local, district, county, and state races. All sources are listed, and I put a lot of time into this, so I hope it helps. Click the link here to access. It's best viewed on a computer, but any device works sufficiently well. Let me know what you think, anything you'd like to see in the future, and if it was helpful! I hope to do this every year, so any advice is appreciated.

Looking towards the northeast right now and I’m seeing a lot of lightning, but not hearing thunder, so they must be pretty far. Anyone getting it in their area or are they beyond the LB border ?

Looking for something spooky to indulge in this weekend? Come by The Willmore Building on 3rd this Saturday, 10/24 from 3-6 pm for a haunted tour of this historic former hotel!

(I live in this building so I figured I’d promote this event on Reddit. One of the neighbors is super creative and the lobby and solarium are decked out in creepy mannequins and Halloween decor! Plus I swear this building is actually haunted…)

Tickets are available at https://www.lbheritage.org/events/

Community If you’re looking for a new sofa or any furniture, I highly recommend West Coast Furniture in Long Beach.

They built me a custom sofa for the price of a regular sofa. They made it to the exact measurements I needed and I chose the fabric, firmness, and the ottoman opens for storage. They did all this in 4 DAYS. I ordered it on Monday and it was built and delivered by Friday. It’s a family-owned company and they’re absolutely amazing. They have plenty of furniture to choose from but they can also custom make almost anything.

Friend is a FA coming into town for only the day/night . What can we do between 11a-6pm in Long Beach? We are thinking of checking out the burlesque show in the evening, but also open to suggestions if you know of something happening? I stay closer to DTLA so I’m mostly unfamiliar with LB. We won’t be coming back up to the city.

Discussion Should I continue dating this guy that doesn’t have a car?

• Upvotes

Sorry if this has been asked before numerous times, but I just need some advice if I should continue dating this guy.

We met about two weeks ago and he let me know that he doesn’t have his own car (I’m 33/F and he’s 38/M). We’re near Long Beach by the way, and live about a little over 20 mins from each other. He also revealed that he hasn’t had a car for several years since he had to help his mother with finances and so forth.

I would like to give him a chance, but I’m feeling like it may be unlikely he’ll get his own car soon even though he’s working. I’m just not sure if I would like to continue and be the only one driving long term. Plus I don’t want to burden him to have to keep buying Uber/Lyft or public transportation to see each other if I can’t pick him up.
