We Straddle LA, Bitch 11 years, 11 months agoDoes anyone here have experience with a tailor in the Silverlake area? I need some simple alterations to a menswear suit but would like to keep it masculine. I have nightmares of taking my awesome tux-styled suit to a tailor and ending up with a Hillary Clinton pantsuit. EEK! All suggestions are appreciated, even if they are outside east LA. thanks!

We Straddle LA, Bitch 11 years, 11 months agoYo, L.A. Straddlers! Planning on going to Truck Stop this Friday night? PASS ON THAT GRASS and instead come see radical folk-rock in the form of the OAK CREEK BAND (http://oakcreekband.com)! Not only are they great, but they’re my little brother and sister. They’re adorable and wonderful and the Mint is a killer place to catch a show. I will…[Read more]

Digging 1934. Any song with whistling is a winner, for me. Will it be 10 at the door? Hmmmm.

Far as I know! COME. BRING FRIENDS. LET ME SLING MY ARM DRUNKENLY AROUND YOU.

DEAL. Hahah, I’ll try to round up a crew. No, the best part of this was I forgot I had their music streaming, and I was like: What Pandora station is this? I like this.

That is fabulous. I’ll be posting whatever the hell I have on at some point tomorrow so Straddlers can ID me and say hi.

I’ve tried 4 or 5 times to be a vegetarian but the most I have lasted is 7 days..any tips?
-
Watch Earthlings, it’s streaming online at earthlings.com. It always helps.
What are you slipping up with?
-
I always slip when I am in a hurry and have class for the next 4-5 hours and just need something fast.

Plan ahead–pack some snacks in your bag (trail mix, nuts, lara bars or other types of bars, primal strips, whatever), have ingredients for PB&J or some other easy to make meal at home, and figure out what the nearby veg options are out. You can do it!
-
Thanks for the advice! I have actually made it to 2 weeks and I don’t see myself going back to eating meat. I did accidentally eat soup that was made with chicken broth but other than that everything has been good. Definitely been eating a lot of PB and J though!

I guess my question would be why you want to be a vegetarian if it’s something you can easy break? And I don’t mean it in a judgey way. I went on and off for months at a time and until I have finally reached being pescetarian for about 3 years now. Plan ahead and think about what you can eat. In a rush is tough, but I give myself the option of…[Read more]

I think it comes down to you really wanting to do it. I tried to be a vegetarian a few times but it didn’t stick. I never ate a lot of meat so I didn’t think it would be too difficult. Then I started reading some different books about all the horrible crap in so much of our food, meat included. First I stopped eating all processed foods which cut…[Read more]

For me, it was really helpful to have friends/roommates who went vegan at the same time, slightly earlier really. We could work together in figuring out good places to eat. Maybe see if there’s some sort of vegetarian club in your area/ at your school, and if not there are tons of online communities.
I also ate a ton of convenience foods, like…[Read more]

I can make it Monday if it’s later in the evening near the end of usual happy hours. Other than that, Thursday or Friday always works best for me.
I could do Mon if its later or Weds…where at?
What side of town is good for everyone?
I’m near Silverlake. Thursday is the only day that doesn’t work for me.
I’d love to go to one of these meetups, but, alas, Monday is out for me :( I’d love to go if it’s later on that week :D
I am super horrible at this! Seeing that it’s Monday evening NOW, how’s about Wednesday evening in Los Feliz somewhere?
That would be so perfect for me! And hopefully for everyone else, too. 1739 on Vermont in Los Feliz has free pizza during happy hour until 7PM.
I’m down!
i’ll be there. i will also update the top of the newsfeed thing.
