Hi, I'm a grad student at CSU Fullerton working on a podcast project examining the connection between the Port of LA/Long Beach and Long Beach's high asthma rates.

Feel free to comment any questions below. We appreciate your time & participation!
Found a few hatched egg sacs (very unique and easy to identify) and the surrounding area with immature spiders on the inside of the garage door. I disposed of the egg sacs and sprayed the spiders I could see/reach. Has anyone else in the area had to deal with this type of spider? Two years ago I found some egg sacs and spiders on the outside of the window and I’m afraid the backyard might have an infestation.
Are there any go players in Long Beach that get together and play?
All my friends are cities apart and schedules have been hard to line up. I'm looking to form a local group of dudes to meet up on the regular. Looking for casual super low stakes game more focused on social aspect and banter than Money. Im willing to go to .5/.10 blinds or even just play for fun and street cred idgaf. Essentially a friendly home game to chill out with some mobile games and poker. I play wild rift right now and used to play cod mobile. I also play PC but would like to focus on mobile so that we can keep the social aspect going. Down to go meet at the coffee shop or bar to play some mobile games first before arranging poker. 420, alcohol friendly. DM me if anyone's down.

Looking for some low key activities. Anything special?
I bought a magic key for Disney but don’t have many friends to go with. My husband also has a magic key but he’s not a huge fan and only wants to go once a month or every other month if he could.
I love going to Disneyland and going on all the rides, so I’m looking for friends to go with or is there a group that I need to join on Meet Up or Facebook?
I’m 30 F and have been in Long Beach since 2020!
I have a friend visiting from France for two whole weeks this summer. We're on a budget, so we're going to stay at my place and not do overnight trips. What are some good day trips we can take from Long Beach, aside from the typical tourist stuff in Hollywood and downtown?
Big neiborhood garage sale with about 100 houses participating. Lots of Vintage, furniture, clothes etc! Cruise out!
Hey y’all I just moved here about a month ago from OC. don’t have many friends. Where are some cool places I can hang out to talk to people and make friends?
I’m 30 female who enjoys art, theatre, and reading.
A few hours ago a neighbor saw someone squatting by the back tire of our car. After looking closely at the video it looks like they were reaching up into the wheel well as my neighbor pulled out of the driveway. We had parked there just 10 min prior. A car did a slow down suspiciously while parking but didn't think much of it at the time. I briefly checked for a location tracker but didn't find anything. Maybe my neighbor spooked them? Non emergency police line called and I placed a mobile security camera next to the tire should they return. I plan to do a more thorough inspection in the morning.
Has anyone experienced something like this?
Ideally someplace easy to find! Don't really know my way around!
Hey everyone, my girlfriend and I have lived here about 6 months and struggle to find stuff to go do Friday nights. We’re not big clubbers or bar people, but we’re both nerdy but extroverted. We’re usually willing to drive out towards OC or up to LA as well. Any ideas?
Does anyone know if its possible to make your property exempt. Could you change or do anything that could Exempt your property from AB-1482 (1947.12 , 1946.2) besides removing it from the rental market , remodeling, or owner move in? ( Long Beach)
Gonna be flying in hella late n hoping to obtain a thc cart not into delta 8 or any sketchy nonlab tested non official thing. Any reliable sources? Seems like everywhere is shut down by 9
Getting a new job soon and I want to start a gym membership. I’ve never had one before so any advice on that would also be greatly appreciated :D
Does anyone know if/where this is possible or am I cooked? I need a dress hemmed and the shoulders taken in for a wedding out of state by next week and would appreciate if anyone knows somewhere to go! Thank you 😊

Do you know this dog? Seems super friendly but skittish and won’t let me pick him up. We’ve seen him over the past few days on E Nevada St. I feel like someone must be missing him.
Hi, does anyone have a recommendation for a head shot photog that has a knack for working with a subject who is soooo not comfortable being photographed? Thanks in advance
I prefer a company that does both fire and burglary monitoring.
