God bless our @lapubliclibrary.bsky.social for paying @lataco.bsky.social for advertising.

Other self-funded City agencies (looking at you @ladwp.com ) should dump money into our local press and valuable institutions.

Layoffs in January were the highest to start a year since 2009, Challenger says With the recent narrative centering on a no-hire, no-fire labor market, the data suggests that the layoff part of the equation could be stepping up.
