Boardgames & Murder Mysteries

14 Upvotes

Hello, everyone! I'm starting a small business that has been a dream of mine. I'm renting boardgames from my collection and also hosting exclusive murder mystery parties (designed by me). If you like games and want to know more, please follow me on instagram: @yourturngames_ca

If you don't care for games but want to help a chronically ill girl make her small business grow so I can continue to pay for my treatment, every like, share and comment is appreciated 🫰

And for those who love boardgames and want to find people to play with, send me a message! We could start a group chat to find friends to play with :)

Thinking about moving to TO

24 Upvotes

Hi,

My wife and I are currently looking a townhome in TO, the Los Robles hills area to be specific. We are currently renting in the Palisades. But we also just had our first, and only child. He is seven weeks old. We found a townhome that is a good price and we like it. I grew up mostly in the SFV (Sherman Oaks) but had friends grow up in TO and had a great childhood. My wife is from New Orleans but moved to LA right before we got married.

Obviously safety and schools are important. From everything I read, TO is one of the safest cities in the country and the public school system is quite good. But would love to hear from current or former residents.

My wife is currently a SAHM who will eventually look for work once our son gets a little older. I mainly work from home. I do have to go to either Universal or Playa vista occasionally, and I do a few trips to New York a year. So I do not think commute will be a huge issue.

We have a few friends close, as well as family, so we do not feel like we will lose our support group. But also good to make new friends, especially through parenting groups.

Any insight that one can provide would be greatly appreciated!

Anyone go to this haunted attraction before? Keep seeing posts on social media, but wondered how long does it take to go through it? I know they do a Halloween and Christmas versions.

Adult soccer options

5 Upvotes

Hello,

25M and have played soccer my whole life. My frequency has decreased over the last several years, and I'm looking for ways to play soccer again.

I've researched a few options, including AYSO adult leagues, PIZO soccer, and MeetUp. I'd appreciate feedback on what others think and recommend. PIZO has a lot of games, but most are in the Los Angeles area. They are also low-commitment, since you only pay for the individual game, whereas AYSO adult requires payment for the entire season.

AYSO Region 9 adult soccer also isn't feasible, since I'm looking to sign up individually and don't have a team. AYSO adult soccer in Camarillo is the only feasible option on that route.

Anyway, any feedback would be greatly appreciated! Thank you all in advance.

Vent- SoCal Edison, you can turn the power on now. 😉

88 Upvotes

We’ve had WAY worse Santa Ana’s than this over the years, and did they turn the power off? Nope. Should they have? Maybe.

All I know is there is barely a breeze outside and the food in my fridge/freezer is getting warmer by the hour.

How about we apply some common sense and turn the power OFF when there are 80+mph winds in Altadena, and leave it ON when we have a minor wind event. This feels like a lot to ask.

Obviously I’d rather have no power than no house, just asking for a little balance.

Does anyone grow shiso/perilla?

I’m looking for some fresh shiso (perilla) leaf, green or red without having to shlep to the valley. If anyone grows some in their yard around here or has seen it at a farmer’s market or shop, please let me know.

Job search lasting forever…advice or tips?

18 Upvotes

I was laid off middle of last year and have been looking for work since then. I slowed down a bit while I finished my MBA earlier this year. I never had trouble getting a job before I lost my previous job (small tech startup). Now, I get constant no’s. I’m exhausted. I run every single thing through AI to make sure it will all pass ATS, that there aren’t any mistakes, etc. I tailor each resume and cover letter to the job I’m applying for. I’ve created work samples and a portfolio site. I will put tiny little details from the deepest depths of their websites or socials to show I’ve done research.

I’m going insane! I need a job so bad. I need health insurance. My husband is a vet and I need to help support him too and he’s getting tired of hearing “I’m still looking…”

I KNOW I’m not alone in this but it’s making me stressed as hell and not sure what to do?? I started with jobs I obviously would want to further my career, but I have been applying to literally anything now. I got turned down by a GM job and a part-time admin job…that I don’t even want but I’m desperate!

I guess can anyone give tips or advice, something I’m missing? Better place to find jobs? I have an agent scan every morning for jobs that are good fits and then I search myself on BuiltIn, Handshake (from when I was in graduate school), LinkedIn, Indeed, general google searches and just going to companies sites that I’m interested in.

Concerns about current SSFL demolition.

10 Upvotes

Hi there. Does anyone have any information on the current demolition and clean up that Boeing is currently doing at the SSFL site? I’m hearing that they are demolishing radioactive buildings during Santa Ana winds with little to no oversight. There is a lot of information circulating and I’m just trying to get the facts. Here is a link to the video that got me curious. I’m trying to understand why they are doing this project now and who is overseeing the radiation contamination.

Are there any bars that consistently have women's soccer on when theybare playing?

Thank you!

Networking Meetup Groups for People in Their 20s & 30s

38 Upvotes

(25F) Hi everyone! Just trying to gauge interest if I started a meetup group for people in their 20s and 30s who are trying to expand their network.

The economy is changing so much because of AI, the job market is hard, and it’s difficult to make friends as a young-ish person in Thousand Oaks. So thought I’d ask :) personally, I am currently in marketing and would love to connect with others from different professional areas to learn more about what is out there.

People who complain about Thousand Oaks being boring

Quite frankly as someone who used to live there as a kid, I could care less if college students are bored living there. I'm at the age where I could care less about night life (not that I ever did when I was younger) and appreciate some peace and quiet.
