Cyclists suck. They ride in the street and dont follow any traffic laws, blow stop signs, don't signal turns.

Dont get me started on e-bikes and scooters.

That is all. Thank you for your time

Edit:additionally as someone that has move here from Phoenix in the last year the streest are kinda crazy on Broadway that e-bikes can speed at 30+ in a bike lane behind parked cars amist turn lanes

Community People are making left turns from the wrong lanes and making right turns in front of cars that have the right of way and not using proper signals or common sense! You almost caused a horrible wreck out there today man in the blue truck that turned right onto south into oncoming traffic! Ughhh!

Community What's going on with Veteran's Pier (Belmont)?

42 Upvotes

Decided to go for a walk down the pier the other day and genuinely do not understand how the city allows it to persist in the condition that it's in. Why do other beach cities have pleasant piers, and ours is a collection of porta-potties? I couldn't even walk all the way down the pier because of the smell. The city could totally clean it up and put something useful and educational there. Am I being an asshole? I do not understand why the pier is like this.

Questions Need help finding niche organizations

• Upvotes

Hello all, I am planning on working on a documentary about some sort of niche organization around Long Beach or surrounding areas. I don't want to make the documentary about a super dark organization, but I don't want it to be something surface level or ordinary like "Cactus Club" or just a charity/nonprofit. Does anyone know of any organizations that could be intriguing to dig into and potentially make a documentary about? I was picturing it to have a non-lighthearted or more mysterious atmosphere at least. Absolutely open to all suggestions, thank you!!

Questions Seeking further info on this siren

I’m not sure if anyone else here is an air raid siren enthusiast but I figured I’d take a chance and ask

This is a Federal Signal Model 2 located at one of the onshore processing areas from the THUMS Islands (next to the Queen Mary). From what I’ve gathered this siren is still active, despite its rather decrepit appearance - the fact it’s the only siren in the vicinity definitely seems to support this. But I’ve never heard it be tested. Does anyone have any further info about this siren?
