What is going on this week in the 818?

Anyone one know whats happening on belliningham ave and victory where the wells fargo bank and old movie theater is? New development? Are they filming something?

23 looking for some raves for me n my friends can go to.

My 26th birthday is coming up and I’m looking for someone local who decorates custom cookies! Please let me know if you or anyone you know does!!

Howdy! Please delete if not allowed, but I’m looking for a new roomie in Sherman oaks! It’s a 2/2 in a great neighborhood, and it comes with parking and shared laundry. Please check out this CL post and reach out if you’re interested! Prefer to live with another woman in her 30s, but I’m open minded!

Rent : $800, but it’s about to increase 5%, so thinking it’ll be closer to $830, but I’ll confirm once I know.

Utilities: $100/mo depending on the season, sometimes less

Deposit: $800

I live in North Hollywood, bordering on Sun Valley near Lankershim and Tujunga. Has anyone heard any small explosions? Possibly gunshots or fireworks? My dog’s hiding and I’m assuming it has something to do with the protests. A lot of ambulances as well today.

Looking to get a sleeve done in black and gray preferably.

Most importantly I'm looking for a artist that specializes in original artwork.

The theme I want it done in is Gothic cyberpunk, if that even is a theme. I got a few ideas but I'd rather save my ramblings when I talk to the artist.

Drop there instagram in the comment section please

Located behind Maclay Middle School on Borden & Gain. I attended Maclay in the early 90s, and I can remember it being abandoned back then. Easily approaching almost 40yrs of abandonment. The way real estate prices are now, the lot itself has got to be worth a nice chunk of change.

As a native Valley Rat, I understand the tension that exists between us and our neighbor to the East. Long have the elites on BOTH sides of this divide pitted us again each other, and both sides have fought valiantly.

And yet, I posit that this is ALL a smoke screen for a larger issue, and one that those in power would rather us not face.

If history is any indication, soon Santa Clarita and Simi will begin to seek an alliance, seeking to further enforce these satellites of Orange County, entrenching their MLM Moms and Q’Anon Quacks in our very back yards.

They will bring their lifted white pickups with their LED headlights, their dated Oakley’s and MAGA hats, and poison our fair metropolis with too much hair gel and casual bigotry. These Neo-Neanderthals never made it out of 2002, as their Salt-Life decals so proudly make clear.

I propose an immediate ceasefire between the SFV proper and Burbank. In exchange for Burbank supplying the arms for said armistice from “Gun Alley” (Magnolia) we will promise NOT to correct them in front of their friends when they talk about being from the Valley. We will let them enjoy vastly superior Mexican and Vietnamese cuisines and call them their “favorite local spots” and we will be allowed open use of the Los Angeles Zoo, and well as Universal Studios, thus ending the humanitarian crisis in Studio City.

Now is a time for unity. We must come together against the Upity Horse Girls and 2 Stroke Dirt Bros. We must make a stand for the valley culture that Unites us.

PS. most cops with beats in the valley are from Santa Clarita and Simi Valley. Just sayin.

What Say You??

Can anyone recommend a good greeting card shop in the Valley? Or someplace that has a good selection beyond what a grocery store/drug store would carry? Looking for a very special birthday card. Thanks in advance for your help.

Does anyone have any info on this place? I can’t seem to ever find records of it online. It’s in Northridge!

There’s lots of live theater (and bars) in NoHo, which is great, but it seems weird that there’s no live music venues anymore. Or at least I’m not aware of any, what with the passing of the Knitting Factory and the CIA, and Kahuna Tiki closing in a couple weeks.

Some of the live theaters have closed – can bands play in them, or is there some city Licensing /government regulation that says you can’t have theater and music in the same space?

C’mon NoHo, I wanna get my rock’n’roll on.

Alright San Fam, with all this talk about the U.S. imposing tariffs on Canada, I think it’s time we take a stand together. We need to hit our northern neighbors where it hurts. No more supporting their businesses, no more giving them our hard-earned Valley dollars.

I’m talking, of course, about r/SantaClarita.

That’s right. No more Valencia mall trips. No more Magic Mountain season passes. No more eating at their chain restaurants when we have perfectly good ones right here in the 818.

For too long, we’ve let those "Awesometome" folks act like they’re part of LA when we all know they’re just a glorified outpost of Orange County. They don’t have our traffic, our smog, our culture. And yet, we let them infiltrate our Valley economy like a bunch of tweens partying at Sherman Oaks Castle.

It’s time to stand in solidarity with your fellow r/SFV residents. No more trips past the border (Newhall Pass). If you must travel north, pack snacks from home. No buying gas up there. No stopping at In-N-Out off McBean. And definitely no dating anyone from Santa Clarita unless you’re okay with their parents asking if you have a “real job.”

Stay strong, Valley warriors. The 661 shall not profit off of us any longer.

Anyone know some good spots? Tried doing it at the Van Nuys/ Sherman Oaks park and it did not work out well.

Valley mentioned! That’s all (:

It’s official fam, PACOIMA, PAC-Town, PACA$, is THE city representing the entire SFV 818 subreddit! That’s it, that’s the post!!!

Kendrick shouted out the valley and named Pacoima. We the BEST

Any idea what this was?

Random Question for parents of troops...

I live in SD and Girl Scouts contracted with abc bakers instead of the other company. I buy every year to support but I also do enjoy the ones I buy.

ABC sucks. They don't have tagalongs or samoas, only weird tasting vegan versions. But the whole area of SD got them.

If there's any girl scout parents on here, can you tell me if the cookies are from little brownie bakers? Ty!

I like to imagine they just estimate the number of rats you have and do nothing else.

My friend, who is a single mom and going through a tough time, lost her dog as construction workers left her door open and the dog ran outside without her knowing until it was too late!!

Her dog was last seen on 2/1/25, city of San Fernando, near Glenoaks & Vaughn.

His name is Puma.

If any of you are in that area and has seen this dog, please let me know ASAP. This dog means the world to her.
