@therealburns3 Basically

So Kanye basically had the greatest concert of all time last night?

@FrankMagana15 It’s number 1

Fans are calling Ye’s performance “the greatest show of a lifetime” 🤯 How did you feel about his show? 🤔

YE STRONGER LIVE AT SOFI STADIUM 🏟️ "Y'all know who you came to see. Can I talk my sh*t again?"

Ye thanks his fans for sticking with him 🫂 "I wanna thank y'all for sticking by me all these years... through the high times, through the low times..."

No but when you can’t compete on price you lose you’re most valuable revenue lever while your costs are significantly higher I pay more for lease, insurance, parking, labor than most cities Not even including the marketing angle where your costs are super high for increasingly diminishing return compounded by declining foot traffic because everyone leaving. It’s a doom loop

@cbboyer @amirofLA @WestsideLAGuy The internet is downstream from leftist policy?

There’s ZERO excuse for L.A. to not be a thriving city. We have the raw ingredients to make it happen but decline is a choice. Leftist policies have failed L.A.

@cbboyer @WestsideLAGuy Nah these are issues systemic on a national level. Only blaming leftists is simplistic. Both are two sides of the same coin where neither incitivize the private sector enough

@amirofLA @WestsideLAGuy Everything you just described is downstream of leftist policy

@zerohedge Past it

gas prices not yet at I Am Legend levels, except in California of course

What does the resurrection look like? Felt like fires were final nail in a lot of people’s coffin. Not really confident in Bass or Pratt to understand all the areas that need help. LA used to feel like entourage by the Hollywood Roosevelt Pool… Now I don’t even want to go near the parking lot 😞

I was speaking at The Getty Center back in October and was blown away by how bad Los Angeles had gotten. Sunset boulevard, where I used to live, was full of “for lease” signs all over the place. It felt so eerie. And I say that as someone who lived in West Hollywood throughout the 2010’s. LA in the early 2010’s and probably 2000’s in general was so much fun. The best parties. Everywhere you went, people were shockingly beautiful and health conscious. It slowly started deteriorating in the late 2010’s only for the nail in the coffin to happen during COVID. When I bring it up, people are like “what do you mean, LA is great!” And they live in like Silverlake or wherever. You cannot compare how incredible of a city LA was to how it is today. And it’s a shame because California is such a beautiful state. You land and the air is mesmerizing. “LaLa Land” really was the last ode to what made Hollywood magical and they snubbed it for best picture just to nail it in the coffin.

@itsfedex Should have hit right center. Made the mistake of hitting the first entrance off dodger express

I waited 15 min in line, smooth transition 💙😂 🤷‍♀️

@edware32 @Lorey082 I’ll see ya there

@Lorey082 I’ll post a picture When I get there today lol

Lines for tonight’s game , people already waiting outside the gates LOL 😂

If Kawhii is a FA due to contract void, I see GS and us in play. I’m not sure Rob could turn down signing Kawhii… Maybe a far fetched dream but I think it will come down to those two with Miami in play too.

We’re not mad, I assure you. We’re dismayed at the state of media. The Lakers just beat NYK, MIN, DEN, @HOU x2, @MIA, @ORL in the last 2 weeks — 9-1 with a 121.3 ORTG and 57.6% eFG. But the “not a good team” argument persists because it’s anchoring bias from a preseason narrative nobody updated about an old team that can’t shoot or play defense. Instead Lakers fans get a doubling down on a bad take for engagement under the pretense of “journalism.” Your take was, is, and has been chopped.

there are going to be Lakers fans mad at this, but whatever. LeBron and Luka are INCREDIBLE TALENTS — this is not a championship team. there’s nothing about this team (as a whole) that has championship written on it.

@Yinoma2001 Who wrote these rankings? Pete Hegseth?

How do we feel about this?

@Yinoma2001 I see them going after Peyton Watson

IF LBJ is brought back (say 20-25m range): 1. centers (assuming Ayton opts in, and no IHART): Mitch Rob, Ayton, Hayes. 2. POA defenders: assuming Smart is back, but I would chase Keon Ellis. Goodwin also a name. Lakers may be interested in Dort.

@theseoguy_ The GPS targeting is my favorite black hat strategy I’ve seen so far

one of the best interview questions you can ask an SEO agency is to explain black hat SEO to you not because you want them doing it to your website but because the ones who truly understand the algorithm can explain exactly how it gets manipulated if they look at you with a blank stare or get uncomfortable, that tells you something it tells you they learned SEO from a youtube video and a blog post and have never actually gone deep on how the machine works the best SEOs i know understand black hat tactics in detail they know how people build private blog networks, how they manipulate review counts, how they use exact match everything to game relevance, how they build spammy links at scale they know all of it and because they know all of it, they understand the algorithm at a level that someone who only plays by the book never will you want someone who has gone down every rabbit hole, tested things they probably shouldn't have, broken a few things along the way, and came out the other side with a complete picture of how google actually works then you want them implementing everything completely clean on your business this is true in every marketing channel by the way the best google ads people understand the behind it fraud inside and out the best meta ads people understand how accounts get banned and why mastery of any channel requires understanding the dark parts of it. dont get me wrong, i am not advocating your agency does anything illegal / immoral you just want someone who knows not only what the rules are but also why they exist cookie cutter agencies are dangerous because they are just repeating what someone else told them you want someone who figured it out themselves, and then implements all the good on your assets

@bigmonkeong This year’s movie slate is insane

i still dont think people understand how insane it is that we're getting these 2 in the same year

Always remember that your calmness under fire is your best defense in any argument or discussion.

@HisandHerLakers I think Kleber or Vando will get situational minutes too

JJ has shortened the rotation to 9 guys here during this stretch. Looks like barring injuries these are the guys we are going to battle with in the playoffs: Luka, Bron, AR, Smart, Ayton, Rui, Jake, Hayes, Kennard.

@MitcheIl Thanks for teaching me a bunch of stuff I didn’t know explicitly but make complete sense as you sequentially break them down. 🙏
