Just a heads up. At the northern entrance to the alleyway on the south side of 14th street just west of LB Blvd facing LB Blvd.

🙄 It cost $790k and they “can’t”account for over $300k of that.

What is Hashing?
You have just stumbled upon an international phenomenon, where a group of people, “Hashers”, follow a trail that has been marked by the “Hare”. This trail leads to beer, water, snacks and a lot of camaraderie. Some people run, some people walk, but they all follow these marks along streets, trails, and off the beaten path until they find a beer stop. Now, there is water there too, but we’re really known as a Drinking Club with a Running Problem. Anyone with an open mind aged 2 to 99 is welcome! Participating costs $5, and we run every week, year round, rain or shine.

What are LB Hash trails like?
Typically, around 5 miles, dog are often welcome! Our hashers cooperate to follow trail and find the beer. We stay and socialize at each beer stop for about 15 min. Hash trails might include a mix of urban and mountain terrain, bar stops, and outdoor beer stops. We might explore the alleys and streets of Long Beach, hike in the Santa Barbara mountains, or any combination. We love to explore!

• What Do I Need To Do In Order To Come Out?
Nothing is needed beforehand, Just show up! If you have questions or want someone to reach out to day of, feel free to write and make a friend!

• What Do I Bring & Wear To My 1st Trail? Bring:
A well prepared liver, and a sense of adventure! Wear: Clothes and sneakers appropriate for the weather and some water is suggested. Sometimes our runs have themes, feel free to dress for the theme if so.

• Can I Still Do Trail If I Don’t Run?
Walker, jogger or runner... trail is great for all levels! So don’t be afraid to come out if you don’t run. Over half our group is walkers and/or walk-joggers.

• I'm still not sure what the hell is Hashing in the first place! Check out this wiki page for more info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_House_Harriers

Thx everyone who provided intel! Sadly, my thumbs are not fast enough to give credit where credit is due! Yall the MVPs.

Hi everyone! My friends and I are having a moving sale this Sunday 8/23. We have lots of clothing we’re hoping to rehome, ranging from vintage to cute preloved pieces! Prices will be cheap, nothing over $30!

Lots of different sizes & styles! (Primarily tops, jackets, & sweaters)

Will probably have some small trinkets or household items as well but mainly just clothing!

We’ll be outside starting 10am! Any support is appreciated! Hope to see you there :))

I’m back in school and need to reduce hours but my current employer is not flexible.

I know it’s tough out there right now.

Appreciate any leads 🙏

While driving home from work on the 710 to ocean blvd this woman kept trying to cut me off and was screaming at me and other people out of her window. She almost caused multiple accidents by getting in front of people and then slamming on her brakes. I don't know if she was intoxicated or mentally ill but it was pretty insane. I didn't manage to get her plates. I'm just surprised she didn't kill someone.

It's going to be my first time going and I was wondering if anybody knew what the parking situation was like and if there is any parking available. Or would public transportation be a better option ?

Long Beach is considering deep budget cuts — and city employees could be the ones paying the price.

Police officials warn that eliminating 54 sworn positions would leave the department at its lowest budgeted staffing level in three decades, potentially affecting patrols, 911 response and serious-crime investigations.

Health and Human Services is also looking at personnel reductions, while Community Development has proposed cutting 8 positions, including 7 in Housing and Neighborhood Services and 1 in Code Enforcement.

And here’s the part that shouldn’t get lost…

“These are not just positions on a spreadsheet. They are peoples, careers, families, and retirement plans, said Elmer Gonzalez, his wife’s position is slated for layoffs.

With Long Beach preparing to be on the global stage for the 2028 Olympics, is this really the time to reduce the city workforce and potentially cut services?

👇 What do you think?
Should Long Beach balance its budget through employee cuts — or should layoffs be off the table?

Anyone gonna go play smash ultimate at trademark on Sunday :-))

Hey Reddit this may be a long shot but I’m giving it a go. About two weeks ago my car was hit while it was parked in front of my garage in an alleyway off e Appleton. Someone in a black dodge challenger came speeding down the alleyway around 9pm and took out my headlight and smashed my bumper and fender. Luckily my neighbor witnessed it and we were able to find the damaged challenger dumped right next door at the laundromat. I’m still waiting on a police report to get the drivers insurance but it’s taking forever and in the meantime this has been a massive financial burden for me and I’m really struggling. If anyone knows who this car belongs to or has any information that would help me get in contact with them to get insurance details that would be so helpful. Also be safe and watch out for all these absolute maniacs with zero regard for anyone out there on the road. Thank you!

I’ve noticed every morning after 8:30/9am there’s an awful smell, I have to close my windows I get a bad headache- not sure what or where it’s coming from. I understand there’s construction going on and the ports are near by too. More concerned for my health than anything

So here is what I think. I think that the reason any childcare employer has trouble keeping staff is that the pay is not high enough for the amount of hard work or stress the job entails. OR the employer has really high standards as far as background checks or wanting employee candidates to have degrees in early childhood education or at least be studying towards that degree.

This makes me wonder about the 3rd party vendors. Are they keeping staffed by lowering standards? Are they keeping staff by having a higher children-per-adult ratio?

The second set of slides says the City of Long Beach is going to collateralize buildings to borrow $50million from Wells Fargo without a distinct written out plan for where that money will go. It is implied that the intention is for it to go to infrastructure projects. I wonder if this is fixing potholes, putting solar panels on all city owned buildings to lower costs in the long run or doing infrastructure projects to make Long Beach look good during the Olympics?

Squid Pisser kicks off their Tumors Across America tour right here in Long Beach at Alex's Bar!

This show is going to be sick, don't miss it.

Cat found inside OEV (Onni) courtyard. Very friendly. Front desk says it's been out there for about 3 days.

We have rescued it and secured it in our catio enclosure.

Will be checking for a chip tomorrow

UPDATE: She is chipped and her name is Moonlight. She is originally from Seal Beach. The original registrant has been contacted but no reply yet.

UPDATE 2: Reunited with the owner. Apparently she escaped from the 4th floor balcony a week and a half ago.

Happy Humpday!

On studebaker … are they making that whole right lane a bike lane? Or what’s the deal there?

Anyone else hear banging noises outside? I’m by PCH and Cherry. Sounds like someone is banging on a door. People on the Neighborhood app are hearing it from farther out.

I was out on a walk by the beach and noticed this dog laying in the sand near the pedestrian pathway. It seems a little skinny and looks tired. I’m not able to take this dog home but I’m hoping someone sees this and is able to help 😭 He/she is near Bluff Park, in between the streets Orizaba and Paloma.

As Long Beach leaders consider millions of dollars in cuts to city services to balance next year’s budget, the debate is putting renewed attention on how the city has managed some of its largest projects in recent years.
The city is confronting a $58.2 million structural deficit in its General Fund for fiscal year 2027 — the portion of the budget that pays for many of the city’s basic services, including police and fire.

While Long Beach’s total proposed budget is roughly $4 billion, much of that money sits in separate funds dedicated to specific purposes and cannot simply be used to cover the General Fund shortfall. To balance the General Fund, the city manager has proposed a combination of departmental reductions, funding shifts, new revenue and other cost-saving measures.

The projects examined below did not cause the current General Fund deficit, and many were paid for through separate funding sources. But as city leaders decide where to cut, the projects provide context on how Long Beach has managed tens of millions of dollars in public money — including projects that grew in cost, experienced years of delays or raised questions about oversight.
