After losing 60,000 rabbit-related items in the Eaton Fire, The Bunny Museum vows to reopen Owners Steve Lubanski and Candace Frazee plan to rebuild with fire resistance in mind.

Losing everything in a fire is the hardest. But Candace and Steve of The Bunny Museum in Altadena are resilient and trying to reopen ASAP. Talking to them was pretty inspiring.

We're having a Bad Bunny listening part at work for our Latinx/Latino/Latine employee group. Someone said they haven't heard the DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS album yet.

Who else hasn't heard it!!!

I'm editing a video where I visit Latino eateries in LA and I can't find Mexican music (no copyright) that's not the Spanish guitar or regional folk music... I'm looking for some Peso Pluma vibes, definitely non-folk-ish.

How do video creators tell authentic stories with limited music libraries??

Some San Fernando Valley residents can get up to $500 in wildfire relief The L.A. City Council set aside $25,000 to help self-employed workers in District 6 who lost income due to the destructive wildfires.

This includes domestic workers, gardeners and other self-employed folks

I cannot vote because I'm not a U.S. citizen. And this story is mostly about domestic workers who are immigrants, and majority of them are not U.S. citizens. Please don't come here with those comments.

Las trabajadoras domésticas también perdieron una comunidad en Pacific Palisades Los trabajadores domésticos -niñeras, jardineros, asistentes para personas mayores- son una parte enorme de la economía de la región.

Domestic workers lost a community in Pacific Palisades too Homes that needed cleaning, yards that needed tending, families who needed caregiving. In Pacific Palisades, so much is gone. What has also disappeared are domestic workers’ livelihoods.

I have a few resources for domestic workers at the end of the story.

I'm looking at ways folks (in and outside of LA) are showing up for fire victims/first responders that are not funds or donations. Artists painting pictures of homes, photographers taking portraits, etc. Please let me know if you see anything out there. Gracias.

Can anyone here point me in the direction to a press contact at #TikTok? Not for the legal proceedings, but for a local LA story about a tagged location.

Any leads appreciated :)

A tiny IKEA has opened in Arcadia. Here’s what you can find It's the latest “small-format” concept store by the Swedish furniture giant to open in the country.

Just in time for your last-minute gifts: I went to the IKEA "mini" in Arcadia and reported back what I saw. Spoiler alert: No Swedish meatballs
