Photo of Lety and the Creature Mastodon stuffed toy standing in front of a mastodon museum exhibit under warm, indoor lighting. From top to bottom, Lety is shown wearing a short, white, long-sleeve dress with red floral print and brown sandals. Her body is roughly facing the camera, the Creature in her arms, as she turns her and the Creature back towards her left to look up at the massive fossilized skeleton of an American mastodon. On the floor between Lety and the skeleton is an exhibit sign reading “American mastodon”, “(Mammut americanum)”, “2 million to 10,000 years ago”, with a map showing the species' historical range across North America and some other out-of-focus text. In the background are several other museum visitors viewing smaller fossil displays in glass cases along a back wall.

Little Tokyo (where Newsom's press conf is) is, of course, historically and symbolically significant because of the history of Japanese-American immigrants being rounded up and incarcerated in an earlier (but not past) era.

Pets have emerged as collateral damage of immigration raids in Los Angeles County that picked up this summer under the administration of U.S. President Donald Trump, when their owners get detained or deported. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/08/06/world/society/pets-la-shelters-immigration-raids/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #society #losangeles #california #pets #dogs #cats #animalwelfare #immigration #migration #us #donaldtrump

Anyone here that lives in LA and uses Metro?

I cannot find what I'd think would be the simplest of maps: one that contains streets and roads, but also Metro stops and stations.

Every Metro "map" is an abstract schematic, completely devoid of any physical information.

Example: I'm home. I want to get to 1234 Main St. What line station is closest to that address?

All of the map apps attempt to get me step by step... All o need to know is which is the closest station. I'll figure out re there.
