wish my neighborhood was cleaner

walked past like 3 dead animals today

Reminds me of the time my gf (now wife) and I lived in Cambridge and Somerville - streets would get super dirty late winter before they ran street sweepers.

One block we would walk all the time was particularly bad, so we spent a good part of a Presidents’ Day picking up trash along one or two blocks - multiple big trash bags and enough cigarette butts, Dunkin’ cups, and airplanes to really question society.

‘‘Twas nice waking along that stretch for the next month or so.  

Good use of our energy and youth.

Sounds like depression. It makes me think about those people who do cleanups like this as philanthropic work

there's just so much trash everywhere, i'm usually not sensitive to it but there's a point where it feels unsanitary and it impacts my enjoyment of just walking

yeah i'm east hollywood / los feliz, it's really dependent on the block tbh, some are totally fine 

think it's a matter of time before i end up in OC or Pasadena but can't really beat the heart of LA rn

went from Playa Vista (lived there 4 years) to Koreatown back in 2022. Only lasted 8 months before I left for OC. Really can't beat a clean neighborhood when going for a walk/run

not for a little bit, i enjoy the sun too much rn

but maybe in a few years, with kids it would be nice

😭 i don't even need palm springs clean i just need manhattan clean

this is why our parents move to palm springs

saw a an obese man with ambulance and everyone recording a fentanyl death in the heat 

last week doing my part to clean up helping Trump and Elon
