Okay Elsa is annoying but … any Elsa thoughts on the future?

i also agree that elsa is annoying but u know shes a good mom honestly. also we all know casey is non binary in our hearts so. here's something i guess :) also on ao3

////

the morning gates stay open (i’d be there)

i’m born to be somebody, then somebody comes from me i’ll tell you about the rabbit moon and when to keep walking

— clairo, ‘reaper’

you see izzie — and no one else — waiting for you when you head out of the terminal at lax.

‘hey elsa,’ she says, giving you a hug when you open your arms, even though you’re a little confused. ‘casey’s in the bathroom,’ she rushes to explain, rolling her eyes fondly. ‘they had like six la croixs today, even though i said it was a bad idea, and —‘

you don’t really process much else because then casey is barreling into you, even though ever facetime call has ended abruptly with an adamant refusal to return any sentiment about missing each other. ‘hey mom,’ casey says into your shoulder, and when you back up you have to smile at the sun-kissed freckles and cutoff shorts fraying at the hem, even though it’s february and snowing in connecticut. casey looks happy, and links hands with izzie, who tries to take your suitcase for you before you glare at casey, who sighs and takes it instead.

you’ve visited before; you helped both of them move into their dorms, and then you’d flown out with doug for a weekend in october. casey and izzie came home for thanksgiving and winter break, but you have some miles saved up now and casey hadn’t sounded too annoyed at the idea of you visiting for a few days to get out of the cold. they drop your things off at the hotel you booked near campus, and then izzie levels casey with a look and then says, ‘i have to meet with a group for a midterm presentation, but i’ll see you for dinner.’

you give her a hug and she kisses casey easily, quickly, and says, ‘i love you,’ far too seriously for an afternoon apart. you don’t know what’s going on but you think back to what izzie had said earlier — not about casey drinking too many la croixs; listening to rules has never been a strong suit, after all — but, you think, if you were listening, maybe izzie didn’t say her, which might mean—

‘let’s go to the palisades,’ casey says, then starts to ramble nervously about how they’re closer to the west side than laguna or manhattan but not as crowded as the pier, and who wants to be around that many tourists anyway, and there’s a little cafe if you wanted some snacks. you listen patiently and agree to any plans, because it’s a beautiful day and you don’t, actually, want to drive that much in la traffic or be by so many tourists. eventually casey runs out of things to say and turns on the radio to some music you don’t know but honestly don’t think is half bad. the windows are down and the sun is bright and you’ve been to pflag meetings in new haven for over a year now; you think you’ll knock it out of the park if casey tells you anything.

you do stop by the cafe, which is cute, and pick up a few snacks. casey had packed a big beach blanket, one you’d given as a joint gift to izzie and casey for christmas, which makes you smile. casey’s hands are shaking, a little, though, and so you don’t mention that it was, in fact, a great present that apparently they use all the time, according to izzie, who always politely and enthusiastically returns your texts and calls with all sorts of updates.

you sit down in the warm sand near the water and you know casey; sometimes, you just have to wait it out.

‘so.’

‘hmmm.’

casey fiddles with the edge of the blanket and then with some of the fruit you got at the cafe, before staring straight ahead at the waves. ‘i’m, uh. whew. well.’

you don’t laugh, will your body not to. instead, you squeeze casey’s hand, just once.

‘i’m just your kid, okay?’

you sit with that for a moment, try to process what you think casey is saying, but you don’t want to get anything wrong or jump to conclusions. ‘today, at the airport, izzie said they, when referring to you.’

casey sits for a second, shoulders tense all the way up toward the sky, and then says, ‘oh.’

‘i don’t think she was even thinking about it.’ casey nods. ‘but, is that what you’re talking about?’

casey sighs. ‘yeah. i guess. is that — is that okay?’

‘of course it’s okay,’ you say, because it definitely is okay, and also it’s not the most shocking news you’ve heard. casey hasn’t wanted anything to do with femininity, really, for as long as you can remember; you’ve grown used to, and proud, so often, of having a queer child — and another bonus queer child, too, which is what you consider izzie now, no matter what.

casey sniffles and then leans into your shoulder. ‘i know you’re, like, bursting with questions.’

you laugh, just a little, and feel a small smile against your skin. ‘not if you don’t want to answer them.’

‘depends on the questions.’

‘do you have any term you like, or any concept or something? i’ve been doing a lot of reading, and i’ve met a lot of other parents in pflag who have children who are also gender non-conforming, and—‘

‘whoa, slow your roll,’ casey says, but seems to deflate a little in relief. ‘non binary is fine, i guess. i’m just — not a girl. i’m just casey.’

that makes you smile. ‘your name is still casey, then?’

it produces an eye roll but then a begrudging, ‘it’s a good name. i like my name,’ so you’ll take it as a win.

‘i have great taste.’

‘ugh.’

‘you use they/them pronouns?’

‘yeah,’ casey says. ‘but, like, it’s okay if you don’t always get them right or whatever.’

‘no, it’s not,’ you say gently. ‘i’ll try really hard. i’ll get them right. it’s important.’

that produces a fresh round of tears that they try to dismiss by saying the sun is really bright and they have a hangover, which you know is false because casey had been asleep by 9 last night after an all-nighter and cross country the day before. but you let them have it, eat a few grapes and then toss one their way.

it elicits a reluctant laugh but it works all the same. ‘izzie corrects people all the time so she’ll love you more than she already does.’

‘i’m so glad you brought my favorite child into my life.’

‘wow, thanks elsa,’ casey deadpans, but then digs their hand into the sand and smiles. ‘izzie’s been so awesome, with all of this. i really love her.’

‘i know you do,’ you say with a smile, pat their hand.

‘and i’ll tell sam and dad eventually, but i want to tell them in person because sam won’t care, i’m sure, but dad is… you know.’

‘he loves you,’ you assure them. ‘i won’t say anything, of course.’

they look at you suspiciously.

you hold your hands up. ‘i swear i won’t. i know i love to meddle but i would never out you.’

casey sighs and nods. ‘i believe you,’ they say. ‘but, for the record, meddling is your most toxic trait.’

‘yeah, yeah.’

‘i don’t really want to talk about this anymore,’ they say quietly after a few moments. ‘it stresses me out, sometimes.’

‘okay. any time you want or need, though.’

they nod. ‘love you, mom.’

‘love you, casey.’

they pop up off the blanket, then, which whips sand into your face and all the food, and then take off toward the waves, laughing. you let them have a little space for a moment, watching your brave child chase off into the surf, fearless as always.

you take izzie to lunch the next day; casey has class during that time and you like to spend time with izzie anyway. she sits straight and proper but you see how she’s relaxed a little too, here, maybe getting to have a childhood for the first time ever. her hair is long and perpetually wavy from her runs by the ocean, and her eyes are bright.

‘thank you,’ she says, ‘for being so good with casey yesterday. they told me that you were awesome.’

‘casey, my child, said those words about me?’

izzie laughs, delicately takes a bite of her quinoa bowl, then shrugs. ‘not those words exactly. but they meant it. and they were so happy this morning, like a weight was lifted or something. i told them they didn’t need to be that anxious to tell you or anything but it’s been a process, you know. i think it’s been hard for a while.’

‘they like to let things stew, don’t they?’

izzie huffs. ‘it’s the worst.’

‘welcome to my world.’

‘casey is… quite the person, that’s for sure.’

‘thank you, too, izzie. for loving them so completely.’

izzie blushes, looks down at her hands. ‘impossible not to, i think.’

you think back to all the times casey has driven you up the wall over the years, the tantrums and fights, and then reach out to squeeze izzie’s hand. ‘impossible not to,’ you agree.

casey and izzie come home for spring break, and casey is pacing around and so you order food, send izzie to go get it, who thanks you quietly with a little squeeze to your shoulder.

you sit down on the couch and make sure that sam and doug are actually paying attention and then casey sighs.

‘is this an intervention?’ sam asks when casey doesn’t say anything. ‘i don’t know who it would be for.’

casey sighs again. ‘it’s not an intervention.’

‘okay,’ sam says, ‘good.’

casey tries to still their hands on their thighs and then says, ‘i’m not a girl. or a boy. or anything else, really, i guess. uh, if that makes sense.’

doug looks genuinely baffled but sam just nods.

‘there are many animals that don’t fit into a gender or sex binary. most commonly, it’s referred to as sequential hermaphroditism.’

casey nods contemplatively and your heart warms a little.

‘one of my friends is trans,’ he says, then takes out his notebook. ‘what are your name and pronouns?’

you can tell casey is trying not to cry, but they just clear their throat. ‘uh, casey, and they/them pronouns.’

sam writes something in his notebook and then nods. ‘got it. sibling? is that okay?’

casey is really trying not to cry now. ‘that’s great, sam.’

‘cool,’ he says. ‘is that all?’

‘oh, uh, yeah,’ casey says, ‘thanks, sam.’

‘sure, i’m just glad this wasn’t an intervention,’ he says, then stands and leaves the room without another word.

casey is smiling but then they turn to really look at doug, who has a furrowed brow.

‘i’m sorry, case,’ he says, which might not be the best start, but you’re fully prepared to jump in anytime they need. ‘i don’t — i don’t understand fully.’

he doesn’t sound angry, and he gets up to sit by them on the couch, squeezes their shoulder once.

‘i love you, though, and i guess, uh. you’re my kid. i just want you to be safe and happy. i’ll try to learn, okay?’

casey swallows once, and then again, and then hugs doug tight. ‘please never quote this, and only remember it for your sake and not mine, but mom knows a lot. she can definitely help explain stuff.’

you beam and doug nods. casey rolls their eyes.

’not now, though,’ they say. ‘izzie’s back with the food.’ they flash their phone. ‘she’s just been waiting outside until we were done talking. elsa, i see what you did there.’

‘you’re welcome.’

‘that pizza better not have pineapple or else i’m taking back everything i just said.’

‘extra pineapple, believe it or not.’

casey stomps off, and then makes a little noise of satisfaction from the kitchen when they discover that, in fact, you had actually ordered pepperoni. you hear izzie laugh.

‘so… we don’t have a daughter anymore?’ doug asks, quietly. ‘that’s not what i should call …’

‘them,’ you supply. ‘casey is our child,’ you say firmly, ‘they’re just casey.’

he takes a deep breath and then nods. ‘okay.’

‘we can practice. i’ve been practicing.’

doug looks relieved. ‘okay, good.’ he waits a beat and then laughs, just once. ‘you know, of all the things casey has ever come to us with, even though i don’t understand the details, really, this might be the one that makes the most sense.’

you smile, lace your fingers together. ‘i thought the same thing.’

when casey and izzie come home for a few weeks in the summer before preseason training begins, casey has a few more tattoos and a buzzcut and the biggest smile you’ve ever seen. izzie is in a crop top and long, flowing skirt and they’re both as enamored with each other as always, sweet and considerate and happy. you make peace with it all, because casey is kinder by the day, it seems, even to you.

zahid comes over one night and smiles and says, ‘sick shoes,’ to casey and leaves it at that, even though earlier you had told them that you thought they looked like geriatric shoes — not even in jest, you were worried about arch support or something — and izzie had laughed and casey had spluttered, ‘they’re jordans.’

it’s not hard to realize, as the weeks pass, that casey is better than they’d ever been; you’d read that a lot of trans and non binary teams have a really hard time during puberty, especially, and casey had been going through so much on top of trying to process this part of their identity. you fight the urge to wish you had known more then, even though they’re healthy and thriving now, it seems.

they get everyone to help organize a slip n slide in the backyard made with tarps and soap and water, and it’s genuinely hilarious when they set up an obstacle course. for two division i athletes, casey and izzie do terribly, falling all over each other and getting bubbles everywhere. you’re pretty sure casey is wearing a binder instead of a swimsuit or sports bra, and when they finally finish their ridiculous game, they lie back on the grass with izzie.

they’re both breathing hard and laughing periodically, not really talking. you bring them popsicles and it’s been a while since you’ve seen casey look this young.

things settle.

you miss your kids, of course, but they seem very genuinely happy. but one night in the fall, you’re just sitting down with a glass of nice merlot, ready to watch the newest episode of the bachelor even though casey relentlessly tells you it’s ‘misogynist garbage’ — which you know, obviously, but it’s mindless — when your phone rings.

it’s casey, and casey never really calls you for a good reason, and your heart jumps in your chest. you put down your wine and pause the tv.

‘case?’

you hear them sniffle on the other end of the line.

‘what’s wrong?’

your mind runs through a million different scenarios, each worse than the last.

‘izzie’s hurt,’ they say, finally, and casey has been known to be a little dramatic so you don’t know how hurt, or what you need to do.

‘what happened, honey? what do you need from me?’

’the trainers are taking her to the hospital for an mri right now but they think she tore her achilles in practice today. i don’t — she was running next to me, just intervals, and then i heard a pop and then she was screaming and — can you come? i’m sorry. they think she might need surgery, i guess, and, i just. please? can you come?’

you put down your wine and walk to your laptop. ‘i’ll look up flights right now, case. i’ll be there as soon as i can, okay?’

they let out what you can tell is a very relieved breath. ‘okay.’

‘i found one that can get me there tomorrow morning. i’ll find a hotel and keep you updated.’

‘mom,’ they say, ‘thank you.’

‘i love you, and i love izzie.’ it’s firm, but you mean it like that: there is no question; you will be there. ‘i’ll see you both soon.’

izzie does need surgery, you find out by the next morning when you uber from the airport to the hospital. casey is hunched over in a hoodie, trying to stay awake with a cup of coffee, but izzie smiles sleepily and happily when you come into the room quietly.

‘i’m high,’ she says, giggling a little.

casey rolls their eyes, clearly exhausted, but gets up to hug you tight. izzie squeezes your hand back when you kiss her cheek.

‘you didn’t need to come,’ she says suddenly, a little furrow to her brow.

‘of course i did.’

her lower lip starts to wobble and casey rolls their eyes but huffs a little laugh anyway. it’s an uncharacteristically chilly, rainy day outside and it’s surprisingly easy to convince casey to go back to the dorm to shower and nap for a few hours before they come back in the afternoon. izzie mostly sleeps, but you take careful notes when the surgeon comes to speak to you, because izzie really is out of it and, although they promise to come back and explain things later, you don’t want them to be missing any information. plus, they always process information better when it’s written down anyway.

izzie eventually gets discharged and has to come back a few days later for surgery. you have savings, so you’re lucky enough that you can stay for a bit. izzie is groggy but gets to have an outpatient procedure, and you help casey get her situated back in her dorm afterward. she has a big padded boot on her foot and ankle but you picked up pain medication for her and so she mostly sleeps. casey settles in next to izzie on the small bed and kisses her forehead, then looks at you, eyes big. their hair has grown out so that it falls floppily over their brows; it makes them look young and you have to fight to not want to kiss their forehead or hold their hand.

‘just — thank you, mom.’

you leave after a few days because izzie is doing better, taking just tylenol and very coherently getting around fine on crutches and so therefore casey has relaxed as well, their easy smiles back and their posture relaxed, slouched like normal.

they both come to see you off at the airport, casey doting carefully and izzie swatting away any attempts. you kiss izzie’s forehead and then do the same to casey, even though they fake gag.

within a few weeks, izzie is walking again, tenderly at first but then without any pause. casey actually gives you studious updates about her recovery; from what you can tell, they go to every physical therapy session they can possibly make it to. you know izzie has gone to therapy for years, now, and all of the drama from when she and casey first started dating seems to have faded into the background. but injuries are difficult, you think — scary and painful, especially because of what running has been to izzie. but eventually she sends you a selfie of the two of them by the beach, clearly having just run, with fly away hair and casey’s cheeks flushed red, huge smiles squinting into the sun.

a year passes, full of holidays and casey complaining about finals and izzie sending you pictures of pies she tries to bake in the tiny dorm kitchen. they run; sometimes when you’re pretty sure they’re a little high, casey will facetime you just to say hello. you and doug help them move into a small duplex together at the beginning of junior year, a bright sunny kitchen and the breeze from the ocean floating through the windows.

casey takes you to get coffee when they visit for thanksgiving — so you know something’s up, because they would never voluntarily spend time alone with you unless they really needed to talk — and when you sit down they smile at you, gently and openly, a rare occasion, and say, ‘i’m gonna have top surgery in the spring.’

you’re not surprised, and you’ve done casey’s laundry enough times when they’ve visited that you know they’ve been wearing a binder most days; you know they love being an athlete, and izzie has sent you enough articles about non-binary athletes in women’s leagues that you know casey has a place in sport.

that this surgery is happening, though, is a little different. you feel scared, because casey is your child, but mostly you feel excited for them. relieved for them.

‘that’s so wonderful, casey,’ you say, and they blink just once and then a grin lights up their face.

they tell you about their surgeon, and the type of surgery they’re going to have, how izzie has gone with them but how, they admit, they would love if you facetimed in for their next pre-op appointment in a few months.

‘can you help me explain it to dad? sam and i already talked, to be honest, because he asked me. which is, like, inappropriate from anyone else, but he’s sam, so it was mostly just so he could research statistics and stuff.’

you laugh, squeeze their hand. ‘i’ll help, absolutely.’

you go out to la a few months after casey’s surgery with doug and sam; everything had gone well and casey had cried in joy and relief when they’d seen their chest afterward for the first time, which had set izzie off, which had set you off too. you’re pretty sure doug had even sniffled.

when you’d left, though, they still had bandages and bruising but now it’s almost the beginning of their senior year and when you go to the beach they take their shirt off and then shove sam into the sand with a laugh. sam grumbles but gets up to dust himself off, izzie rolling her eyes as she helps you set out the blanket.

casey races off into the surf, turning back and yelling at all of you to come join them. you always have; you do.

5 Tips for Finding The Best LAX Airport Parking Rates

Los Angeles parking is pretty hard to come by. The same holds true for LAX airport!Los Angeles International Airport or LAX isthe busiest airport in California and one of the country’s busiest too. More than 80 million passengers travel through the LAX Airport each year. With these numbers of passengers, it’s no wonder that LAX is pretty notorious for traffic snarls! The other problem that arises from the enormous traffic volume is that LAX often runs out of parking spaces! Finding a LAX Airport Parking spot that won’t bust the bank can be quite a pain. Keep calm and carry on parking, though! We’ve decided to let you in on some tried and tested tips and techniques to find the best LAX parking rates and save some moolahwhile you’re at it.

Tip 1 – Book Your LAX parking spot in advance

This is the easiest and most effective way to get cheap parking at LAX airport. For instance, LAX parking spots will be in super-high demand during holidays. More demand will drive up toLAX parking rates, making airport parking in Los Angeles a rather expensive proposition. If you need to be away from Los Angeles for a few days, the best thing to do will be to book your LAX parking spot as soon as you’ve booked your plane tickets. Most of the lots that offer parking near LAX have bulk booking offers and advance booking discounts that’ll help you save money if you book early enough.

Tip 2- Parking at LAX airport will be costlier than parking near LAX

The rule of thumb is that the closer your parking lot is to the LAX Airport, the more you’ll end up paying. This is why parking at LAX airport is way more expensive than parking near LAX. Parking at LAX Central Terminal Area, for instance, offers easy access to the airport terminals but will set you back by $40 a day! Since most offsite airport parking lots will provide you with free shuttle bus transport to and from LAX, you don’t need to park right next to the airport to save time. Parking a little away will actually help you avoid the usual crowds and congestion near the official lots.

Tip 3 – Offsite parking is cheaper

This is true for bothLAX long-term parking and LAX short-term parking. Offsiteparking at LAX airport is usually provideda little further away from the airport and, hence, cheaper. For instance – the cheapest onsite long-term LAX parking, which is available at the Economy Garage, will cost you a neat $12/day! LAX Central Terminal Area Parkingwill cost you a whopping $40/day. Compare this with the offsite lots that offer pretty much the same parking facilities plus a free LAX airport shuttle for around $7/day! Here are the facts – LAX parking lots can get quite crowded and run out of spots during peak times. Furthermore, airport parking in Los Angeles usually offersmuch more limited parking options and amenities.Offsite LAX parking lots, on the other hand, have more parking spaces andare much less crowded. This means you won’t end up waiting for eons in a queue either before or after landing. Some offsite LAX parking lots offer valet parking, a very convenient option, especially if you are in a hurry. If you choose LAX valet parking, you can drive up, grab your luggage, leave your car with the valet,and proceed directly towards the terminal. Several offsite airport parking lots also offer add-on services or like carwashing and car detailing so that you can come back to a spotless car on landing. Most offsite LAX parking lots have 24/7 camera surveillance, gated entry, secure fencing, and security personnel guarding the lot at all times.

Tip 4- Research before you book

Spend some researching your LAX parking options, whether it’sLAX short-term parking or LAX long-term parking. Compare the rates offered by various lots, their distance from the Los Angeles Airport, and if they provideshuttle service to LAX. You should also make it a point to check out discounts, seasonal offers, and amenities/services offered by various online airport parking providers.Don’t forget – LAX parking rates vary according to season and demand. The easiest way to have all these details at your fingertips is through websites like Way.com. You can also see all the ongoing promos, deals, as well as the number of parking spaces available at each parking lot near LAX. The site offers some pretty sweet deals on Los Angeles hourly parking too.

Tip 5- Look for hotels that offer parkingnear LAX

Parking near LAX can be quite cost-effective if you choose to park at hotels near the airport. Several LAX airport hotels will allow you to park in their lots, even without a hotel booking. Hotel parking lots are usually well-maintained, secure, and have free airport shuttles (some even run 24 hours a day). You also have the option to bundle an overnight stay with extended LAX long-term parking. This can be quiteconvenient if you live a bit far from the airport and your flight leaves in the early hours of the morning or arrives very late at night. You can find plenty of hotels that offer airport parking in Los Angeles on the Way.com website. Some more LAX parking tips • Run a quick Google search for LAX parking coupons. You can also check coupon sites like Groupon for discounts and deals. This is an excellent way to save money on Los Angeles parking – both at the airport and in the city. • If you’re driving down to the airport on a motorcycle, you can park it for free motorcycle parking at LAX airport in the Central Terminal Parking Garages. • Read up all that you can about LAX airport and parking options to be well acquainted with what you need to know about parking at LAX Airport. • Free street parking in Los Angeles is hard to come by.

Uber and Lyft drivers are striking at LAX: ‘We’re being paid starving wages’

Uber and Lyft drivers in Los Angeles launched a 24-hour strike today to protest wages they say are too low to make ends meet.

The strike is one of many protests planned across the nation this week in advance of Uber’s long-anticipated initial public offering on Friday. Several dozen protestors picketed in front of the arrivals terminal at Los Angeles International Airport Wednesday, waving to passing cars and heckling ride-hail drivers who disregarded the strike.

“We’re being paid starving wages,” says Laurel Hirschmann, a strike organizer who’s been driving with Uber for 1.5 years “When I started with Uber I was making five grand every month.”

Now, says Hirschmann, she’s driving every day of the week and bringing in $3,000 per month. “After an $800 monthly gas bill, not to mention the car maintenance, that’s $2,000.”

The company announced plans last month to award cash bonuses to longtime drivers, but Rideshare Drivers United, an LA-based coalition of Uber and Lyft drivers, is asking for a longer-term commitment to higher pay.

In line with a minimum pay requirement now in effect in New York City, drivers in LA are asking for a guaranteed $28 hourly rate, which they say amounts to $17 after necessary auto expenses.

Earlier this year, Uber restructured its pay formula for Los Angeles drivers, cutting per-mile rates by 25 percent. That move inspired a day-long strike in March outside of the companies Redondo Beach offices.

About 100 drivers rallied at a park near at LAX before marching back to the airport’s arrivals level.

Elijah Chiland

Uber driver Rosalinda Cabrera says low wages are only part of the problem. She says the company’s practice of treating drivers as independent contractors—rather than employees—leaves drivers with little recourse if Uber suspends their account.

“One complaint from one rider and you can be let go,” says Cabrera. “There’s no recourse. This person might be the primary rent payer for a whole family. How does the company have the right to do that?”

In documents submitted to the Securities and Exchange Commission, Uber estimates that nearly one-quarter of its business comes from just five cities, including Los Angeles; 15 percent comes from trips to and from an airport.

“We provide an essential service, but Uber and Lyft investors are only ones reaping the benefits,” Lyft driver Karim Bayumi said in a statement.

In a statement released Wednesday, an Uber spokesperson said that the company is working to improve the experience of drivers.

“Drivers are at the heart of our service─we can’t succeed without them,” reads the statement. “Whether it’s more consistent earnings, stronger insurance protections or fully-funded four-year degrees for drivers or their families, we’ll continue working to improve the experience for and with drivers.”

The strike is scheduled until 12 a.m. Thursday. A simultaneous strike is underway at San Diego International Airport, and shorter actions are also planned in San Francisco, Chicago, New York, and other U.S. cities.

James Hicks, another strike organizer who’s driven for Uber for three years, says he hopes the demonstrations will catch the attention of the company’s executives as they prepare for Friday’s IPO.

He says potential investors should also be taking note, after Lyft’s underwhelming arrival on the stock market earlier this year.

“We don’t want Uber to go bankrupt,” says Hicks. “The gig economy is not really our enemy. We don’t want to kill it, we just want it to be regulated.”

A woman let her dog shit on the airport floor. So I shit on her plans.

warning: long story

While walking to my gate at LAX, I noticed a woman whose dog was in the middle of doing its business. The woman was loudly face-timing with her back to the dog, so I assumed she didn’t notice. That was likely the thought shared by the gentleman who tried to get her attention.

“Excuse me, miss?” he said, in a polite tone. The woman glared at him. “Your dog,” he sheepishly continued, pointing to the mid-poop pup.

The woman rolled her eyes and went back to face time as the man slinked away, seemingly embarrassed.

“Some people,” she bellowed to her face-time companion with no hint of irony, “are just so damned rude.”

When her dog finished, the woman started walking away, leaving everything right on the airport floor. Another woman tried to stop her.

“You’re not going to clean that up?” she asked, as shocked as the rest of us were.

“They have people for that,” the offender replied, disappearing into the crowd, as much as someone yelling into their phone can disappear into a crowd.

I stood near the pile and warned people to walk around it while someone else got a maintenance worker’s attention. No one said anything – we were so shocked that anyone could be that horrible.

When I got to my gate, the woman was there, too. Great – we were both going to Tokyo. When I travel abroad, I get embarrassed by other Americans doing things one hundred times less embarrassing than leaving animal feces on the floor of an airport. To make it worse, her dog was now barking at everyone who walked by.

I have nothing against people flying with their dogs, I do it often. But it is a privilege I take seriously. My dog is well-trained and behaves better than most people. He certainly behaves better than that a**hole.

Speaking of a**holes, there is a pet relief area inside LAX, past security, just two gates away from where The Party Pooper let her dog go to town. It didn’t matter - she was the type of person to litter three feet from an empty garbage can.

While her dog barked at the world, the woman had moved from face-timing with no headphones to listening to music with no headphones. I don’t like to throw around the word “sociopath” but I don’t know how else I could explain just how selfish and terrible of a person she was. I’d bet her car was somewhere in long-term parking, parked across three spots with paint on the bumper from the child's bike she hit without leaving a note.

Everyone else tried to ignore her, sitting as far away from her as they could. I am not everyone else.

I sat down right next to the horrible woman. “Are you going to London on business?” I said.

“I’m going to Tokyo,” she responded gruffly, annoyed that I interrupted her DJing.

“Oh, I said. Then you better hurry. That flight got moved to gate 53C. This is the flight to London.”

I figured I could give her a little moment of panic as payback for how terribly she was treating everyone. I didn’t predict what would happen next. She grabbed her bags and her dog in a huff, and stormed out of the gate without even checking. She was so self-involved, she didn’t notice that the monitor at our gate still said Tokyo and almost everyone at the gate was Japanese.

Based on her actions, she believed me that the flight had been moved, so she’s also an asshole for not thanking me. “Some people,” I thought as I watched her rush away from the gate without stopping her, “are just so damned rude.”

The flight to Tokyo was at gate 69A, so the 53 gates were on the other side of the next terminal. And I felt guilty knowing she probably berated some poor clerk who had to explain to her that there was no gate 53C.

I don’t know if she made it back to this flight before we took off or not, but I didn’t see her board and I don’t hear her dog. Her missing her flight was not my original intention, but it would be a fine punishment for her being so rude to everyone and making a low-paid stranger clean feces off the floor. What makes me wonder if I went too far is the knowledge that Delta only has one flight to Tokyo each day. Whoops.

Maybe she can re-book on another airline. I hear they have people for that.

Airport Parking versus Airport Hotel Parking - A Personal View of the Benefits of Airport Hotels

Air terminal Parking the Old Way

I am certain we have all done it. We have staggered out of bed at 4am as our caution shouts at us that the time has come to get up. We host packaged our tired get-together into the auto for possibly a 100-mile adventure to the air terminal, leaving significantly more time than extremely vital just on the off chance that we are held up by activity issues. We have landed at the air terminal with a long hold up in front of us, tired (however ideally still energized) before our vacation has even truly started. Despite everything we need to leave the family at the terminal with the baggage, drive to the long stay auto stop, at that point get the transport back to the terminal before we check in.

Air terminal Hotel Parking - the Relaxed Option

I have been changed over! With a group of five to sort out, I am presently an extraordinary devotee of leaving the prior night and unwinding in a lodging near the air terminal. The occasion begins multi-day sooner, and the children appreciate the fervor of an additional night in a lodging with the five of us comfortably loose in a room truly implied for four (you don't need to be that comfortable regardless of whether you have a family our size - The Moat House at Gatwick, for instance, has family rooms that can rest up to 7 individuals).

I can appreciate the drive to the air terminal, as there is no requirement for me to be worried over conceivable activity hold-ups as it truly doesn't make a difference - we have an affirmed in booking and can touch base at midnight if the most noticeably awful happens.

Not any more Early Alarm Calls

We can likewise have a substantially more restful begin on the morning of our flight. There is a lot of time for breakfast, the auto is as of now stopped, and we simply bounce on the transport for the exchange directly to the air terminal. We don't have to leave heaps of time for 'possibility', as there is next to no probability of us getting held up for long between the inn and the airplane terminal.

'Meet and Greet' Service

On landing back in the UK you can likewise make your life simple by picking an inn offering a 'meet and welcome' administration, whereby they convey your auto to the terminal prepared for your arrival (despite the fact that you are probably not going to discover this administration offered by the exceptionally least expensive inns).

Airplane terminal Hotel Parking - A Great Value Alternative to Simple Airport Parking

Furthermore, the best part is, this is frequently considerably less expensive than you would suspect. There are various Airport Hotel Parking Packages for every airplane terminal, and when you take out the cost of the air terminal stopping you would need to pay in any case then the additional cost is little. For me and my family, the choice is a basic one. We'll pick the restful begin to our vacation without fail!

17. Tamar C.

Meet Tamar, who works in Westwood and lives in Culver City with her husband and two cats. She spent her childhood between the Los Angeles suburbs and rural Kentucky.

In Los Angeles, I walked everywhere. I walked myself to school and it was about a mile from our apartment. I walked my little brother and my little sister. My little sister was in kindergarten and my brother was in first grade. It was just the three of us and I walked the three of us to elementary school every day. I did the same thing in Chino. LA was really about a lot of walking for me in elementary school.

In Kentucky, it was a lot of driving. Getting to and from school, it was by bus because we were out in the country. I'd be waiting at the end of our gravel driveway for the bus. Rain or shine, it didn't matter what the weather was. You had to be out there or the bus would just leave you and then you'd be in really big trouble because you missed school because my parents were already going to work. If I missed the bus, I'd miss school and then I'd really be in trouble [laughs] And because it was rural, there weren't any sidewalks in the countryside. Everywhere we went was a long drive. My dad really loved that, though. He loved long drives through the countryside, on back country roads. He really hated the freeways in LA, so it was something he really enjoyed.

But I can't say that I did. It made me carsick sitting in the back. In California, my mother and my stepfather were both really heavy smokers and they loved to go on these long Sunday drives. Like, we would drive from Burbank all the way to Santa Barbara, just to get donuts [laughs] It was our Sunday thing, our Sunday drive. It was really an old way of thinking about driving. So we'd drive all day and the windows would be up and they'd both be smoking very heavily and I didn't enjoy that.

And long and winding country roads are little carsick-inducing. I didn't really enjoy getting around by car. The times I enjoyed it the most were the summers in Kentucky, when my oldest brother had a pick-up truck – I'm really really dating myself here -- back then in the 1980s. All the kids got in the back of the pick-up truck and we would drive down to the lake. I loved being unbelted and no roof and air in my hair, slapping me in the face until it was a rat's nest [laughs]

I think it's so interesting that you walked so much as a kid in Burbank and Chino, which people consider very suburban.

Yea, they are suburban. And in the 80s, they were especially suburban but I also had a different childhood. I don't know if the world is really all that different, I think parenting was a lot different. My parents were like, “You're responsible, be responsible.” I was like, “Okay.” [laughs] So I acted accordingly. I have such an enormous family that I actually really liked walking to and from school because it gave me a little alone time and privacy. Even when I was walking with my brother and sister, they were behind me and I could just kind of zone out and my imagination would just go wild on the walk. It was nice.

How did you decide to walk? Or rather, was it the easiest choice?

It was the only choice. I suppose my mom could've driven me but parents didn't do that in the 80s. If you could walk, then get your ass out there and walk. I don't know anybody whose parent did that unless they were an unwalkable distance from the school. Both of my schools had buses for those kids but I was within the radius that could manage the walk. My mom was just like, “Here's how you get to school. Now do it. And by the way, your brother and sister better make it too. Don't leave them behind.” [laughs] It was a little bit crazy when I think about it now because there I was, 11 years old, and I had a six-year-old and a five-year-old in tow. That would never happen today.

After high school, Tamar enlisted in the U.S. Navy. She went to Palmdale, CA; Orlando, FL; and Great Lakes, IL to train as a diesel mechanic before getting assigned to San Diego, where she would live for nine years.

Do you remember how you got around San Diego?

Yea, I had a car. My first husband and I were a one-car family out of necessity. You don't get paid much in the military. We were just a smidge over the poverty line. He was in the Navy also and just barely over the poverty line. Having two cars was not an option for us but it made sense anyway because once he finally got stationed in San Diego, they put him on a ship and took me off of mine. His ship went out to sea frequently, so it didn't make sense to have two cars because he was gone a lot.

It was totally fine. And when my current husband and I got together, we had two cars for less than a year before I sold my car and we went down to a one-car family here in LA. As an adult, I don't really have an experience being in a house with more than one car for very long.

In 2002, Tamar moved to LA with her husband. They lived near Westwood Village, and she went to graduate school in Long Beach while working in Westwood.

How did you get around LA at this time?

When my husband was looking for his condo, he told his real estate agent he had two rules: to be close to Trader Joe's and to be able to take the bus to UCLA, preferably only one bus. That was a really smart choice on his part. I worked at UCLA after I finished undergrad, I got a job working on south campus in administration and started graduate school down in Long Beach. Since we were had just the one car, it worked out really well that we could both get to and from UCLA without a car and I could take the car down to Long Beach for school.

How did you guys decide on one car?

Parking in LA [laughs] Both of our cars were paid for, so there was no financial impetus. Well, I guess it is financial because you get enough parking tickets on street sweeping day and suddenly, you start to rethink whether or not you need that car. We had these discussions about, like, if I'm not using it so much so that I leave it and forget to move it and it gets a parking ticket for street sweeping, then maybe I don't need it at all because I haven't really been using it. It just seemed like a no-brainer to downgrade to a single car because we only had one parking space at the condo. It just made sense.

What was it like driving to and from Long Beach?

Well, not great. Luckily, I met one of my very best friends in the program and she happened to live in Brentwood and so, we carpooled together. I was really lucky because I think within a week of commuting, I was like, “This sucks!” After one of my seminars, I just said, “Hey, anyone else drive down here from LA?” My friend was like, “I live in Brentwood. Where do you live?” and that was it. We took turns driving down and shared a parking permit.

What sucked about driving down to Long Beach?

The traffic, definitely. I think it's much worse now than it was then. I was in grad school in 2003 to 2007, but it was still traffic-y. I think the only thing that made it fun was that I was carpooling: the fact that I wasn't by myself, we talked about our research, our course work, fashion, food, and all kinds of other things. So instead of being alone, exhausted, frustrated on the 405, I got to develop this wonderful friendship with my colleague. By the time grad school was over we were best friends and still have a deep connection.

I think especially in LA, Angelenos think in terms of “Oh my god, we should get married because you drove me to the airport or you picked me up from LAX.” Braving traffic in LA for someone is a big deal!

Tamar and her husband later moved to Culver City, and she worked as an independent tutor after finishing her master's degree.

What were the other houses that you were looking at? Were they in the same area?

Outside of what kind of house we wanted, we stuck to the westside because we wanted to stay close to campus. Going north was not an option in our budget on the westside, so we had to go south. But we didn’t want to go further than the 90 FWY -- and you just can't get much closer to that than we are right now -- mainly because of our commute time. For this move, my husband had the same criteria as he had before, he had to be able to take the bus to work at UCLA. That criteria was all his doing, because at the time I was an independent tutor, which meant I was driving all over the Westside from the Palisades to Malibu back to Brentwood. That was my daily grind, which left my husband with having to rely on the bus.

When we saw our house I just knew it was the one. I just fell love with it. And he was eventually won over by the fact that it was a less than 10-minute walk to a Rapid [i.e. an express bus] that he could take directly to campus. So that was really nice, not to have to take more than one bus, but also be able to catch a Rapid. He didn't like that it wasn't near a Trader Joe's, but Trader Joe's was on the Rapid route, so was something we could also work with.

How long did you do the tutoring?

I did it for seven years and it was a lot of driving. Because typically, I'd only spend about an hour with a student and then I'd have half an hour driving between students’ homes by the time you get to the car and you get to where you're going. I got to know that part of the westside really, really well: shortcuts, when to take Chautauqua and when not to, things like that. Driving was actually a sense of calm. It was calming experience for me during that time. It was such a high-stress job that being in my car, I would often listen to- I should tell you that I'm a historian and so it's not that random really - but I would listen to medieval choral music. I couldn't sing along with it, but it was just so soothing and calming to me.

What's your commute now? What's the rapid bus that you guys take?

We take the Culver City #6 bus from the corner of Sawtelle and Sepulveda, and it takes about 45 minutes roughly give or take, to get to UCLA. It's almost exactly what it took when we used to have a car. Door to door, it's almost exactly the same because if we drove, we'd have to park in UCLA’s far-flung parking structures, then walk to our office. But the bus lets you off much closer, right in the middle of campus. When we get off the bus, it's a quick walk to our office. It was a pretty easy trade-off.

And then when did you guys decide to go from one car to car-free?

I had a mini-midlife crisis. My dad died when I was 40. After my dad died, I was just experiencing a lot of anxiety and it was manifesting mostly when I drove. I don't really know why. I have never, ever been afraid to drive. I am a really good driver, a pretty safe driver but not a granny either. But for whatever reason, it was manifesting when I drove and not always when I drove, just in really specific situations. So that prompted me just to think about: what if I didn't drive? What if I just took a break? I wasn't even thinking of giving it up, but this anxiety planted the seed, and then my husband and I started just doing less driving.

Was a deliberate thing to try not driving as much?

Just a little. I don't even think I said it like that to him. He was like, “Want to go to the store?” and I was just like, “Yea, care to take a walk?” When we started dating, one of the things that we did as dates was we took long walks in San Diego and that would be our date. For us, going for long walks is been an intrinsic part of our relationship, so I didn't seem weird to say, “Want to walk there?”

Then, I mentioned “no car” to him and he was like, “No. I would love to but you can't live in LA and not have a car” and I was like, “I know! It sounds crazy, but what if we just did?”

I said, “Okay, before we leave for Norway [for vacation], what if on the weekends, we just do our grocery shopping on foot? Sprouts is a 15, 20-minute walk from our house. What if we just see what that's like?” and he was like, “Okay.” And it happened that two weeks later, I found a little granny pushcart at a thrift shop for 15 bucks. We started walking to the grocery and we were like, “This is pretty easy. Why were we driving to the store? This is great!” And then I was like, “What if we just do no-car on the weekends until we leave for Norway?” so we started running other errands on foot.

And then while we were in Norway- public transit in Scandinavia is remarkable. Well, most of Western Europe is. While we were there, we were just like, “We're so much nicer to each other when we're on vacation. Is it because we're on vacation or is it because we don't have to be in the car? It is because neither of us has to drive?” Because we see public transit as a team effort, not like “you missed a parking spot!” or “why didn't you turn in there?!” Instead, we have this team approach to public transit.

We came back from Norway and I found myself really angry that I had to get back in the car. I was angry that if I had to take the car somewhere, whereas I found myself having this Pavlovian response to taking the bus in LA. I tried to meet a girlfriend for lunch, she works over by Bundy and Olympic, which is a tough place to get to from my house. I have to take multiple buses, it takes about two hours. It was super hot, I missed my bus. I should have been miserable because it was inconvenient. But I wasn’t and that gave me pause. I was like, “Why am I not angry I just missed the bus? It's a million degrees, I hate this heat. Why am I not lamenting not having a car right now?” Because we still had the car, but I was choosing not to use it. Experiences like that should have made me give up on being car-free. Instead, they caused me to think about my own motives behind my transportation choices.

I realized that over the years, our travel in Europe had developed this response in me: public transit feels like vacation. I don't have to be anywhere in a hurry. I know my route and I've planned for things to go wrong and in the meantime, I can space out and look at this little five-year-old next to me singing “Twinkle Twinkle Little Star” on the bus or whatever [laughs]. I could enjoy myself. After realizing that, it became really easy. We came back from Norway and did 30 days with no car, we just parked it in the garage and said, “Let's see if we can go 30 days.” Within two weeks, my husband came home one day and he goes, “Let's just sell it” and I was like [breathes a sigh of relief]. After that, we just couldn't get rid of it fast enough. It felt liberating, really really liberating, and it still does. I still feel liberated from a lot of things not having it.

How long of you been car-free?

2 and a half years.

So it coincides with going zero-waste. [Editor's note: Tamar and I met through a local zero-waste group.]

It does! They were connected to each other because my midlife crisis. I had a lot of “search for meaning” in my life during that time, that's normal. But, how you find your meaning and how that meaning manifests is going to happen in different ways for different people. Around this time, one of my nieces posted something on Facebook about sea life being strangled by plastic and she's wrote something like, “What are we doing?” When I read that, I was like, “What am I doing?” I felt responsible to my niece, to the next generation. That garnered my interest in learning about zero-waste. Being car-free just really cemented it because suddenly you’re looking at trash everywhere. You can't ignore it because you're not in this little steel-and-glass bubble with your iPod on anymore. I'm walking a couple of miles a day and I just see it everywhere. I found car-free first and then very quickly zero-waste. They just worked really well together.

So once the car was gone and it was really no longer an option, what was that like? You already have a bus commute, you're already walking to the grocery store, was there anything else?

No, I guess there were just a couple of other things. We both have bicycles and we ride them a lot recreationally. We don't use them for transportation. I suppose you could call it transportation: we do go to the farmers market and do our grocery shopping there on Saturdays, and that's by bike. Sometimes we'll ride them to downtown Culver City but I would never try to ride my beach cruiser to UCLA. I don't even have handbrakes, we have coaster brakes.

We like to ride our bikes a lot. One of the selling points of our house was that we're near the Ballona Creek bike path. That was a big deal for us, to ride our bikes to the beach really regularly, so we do that. This has been a benefit because if we had a car, we'd be less likely to ride our bikes to the beach. We'd be like, “Well, let's drive the beach” but then as an Angeleno, the beach is right there and how many of us actually go? Nobody really does. In a way, being car-free has put more impetus on us to use our bikes for what they're there for, which is to enjoy the world around us and therefore we get to enjoy the beach a lot more.

I think the hardest thing not having an option of the car is going to see my mother-in-law in Seal Beach. It's difficult but at UCLA, we're very very fortunate. We each get an account with Zipcar and we each get four hours with a Zipcar per month, so we go down there every two weeks and one week we'll take my husband's Zipcar and in the next week, we'll take my Zipcar and we'll trade off. It's nice because it allows me to do other things I can't do. We love to stop at Habitat for Humanity ReStore in Torrance, which I can’t get to by bicycle. Those are the times having access to a Zipcar is really helpful.

Besides getting handbrakes, what would get you to to bike more?

We do use the Creek a lot, but my husband used to bike when we lived in the condo and he would cycle sometimes to campus. He was hit three times in less than three years. Drivers are not looking for cyclists. I don't know if we would cycle more. I'd be open to it but I think he's a little shaken. I don't blame him.

We tend to keep a pretty tight radius anyway. One thing that my existential crisis did for me – and looking for mindful living and zero waste helps with that – is I don't really want to go very far, to be honest. Not having a car has slowed my life down significantly and I love it. If I'm going to hang out with friends, I make plans with one person for the day, not three different people in three different locations, because I can't ping-pong about the city and I really like that. I like that we can walk from our house to downtown Culver. It takes about 45 minutes, it's 3 miles, and I know neighbors along that whole 3-mile stretch. I know people from my house to downtown because of walking. When they're out in their yard and I might comment, “Your poppies have come in, they're so beautiful!” and then we have a chat. Now my community, while the radius is smaller, it's also more dense, more tight-knit. I know people, and people know me. LA feels less like a metropolis and more like a small town.

We were walking by a house the other day where the owner is renovating his rental property, as we're walking by and he goes, “Hey! Good to see you guys! Where you off to now? Are you getting brunch at Sage?” I love that sense of community and I think even if we go by bike, that wouldn't happen because we'd still be moving too fast to really have an exchange like that. Also, we get free stuff all the time.

On your walk? What would you get?

Well, yesterday, we walked to downtown Culver to go grocery shopping at the farmers market and then to the co-op and on the way, two neighbors on that walk had giant buckets of sweet lemons out and they were on my grocery list, actually! I needed six lemons, so I just put them right in my bag. Another neighbor that we've gotten to know, has a key lime tree and they always have a bucket hanging off the fence with key limes to share. My husband loves key limes with his gin and tonics so of course we always grab a few when we can. Just little things like that. We get free stuff all the time and I can't wait until our fruit trees are in enough abundance that we can share because right now, they’re still young and we're still able to eat everything they yield. Someday, though, I’ll have a bucket or a basket filled with fresh produce in my front yard too. I’m looking forward to giving back to my community in the same way that I’ve received.

What do you like most about transportation in LA?

I love that it's growing. I love that the public transit system is moving very quickly toward positive changes. I think having the Olympics coming here is going to be a real impetus for change to happen even faster as we get closer because already, you can see in the last two years how fast things have been moving. It's pretty impressive. I was reading the other day that they have plans to change the Expo line to give it priority at the lights. [Editor's note: you can read more about that here.] This is one of the problems that makes it quite slow and people are like, “Why would I take it? It's so slow!” But they're going to change and that is going to alleviate traffic because then the incentive will be to take the train, not to take the car. And why would you want to take your car if the trains are faster?

So I love that LA is innovative enough to see that this is the future and to be making moves toward it. I lived right near Santa Monica and the 405 when they widened it the last time and I was like, “Why are we doing this? This is so backwards, to widen this damn freeway!” so it's nice to see movement elsewhere, where things are changing in a positive way.

For example we don't go to Santa Monica all that much but when we were there recently, we were at a Big Blue Bus stop that had electronic marquees showing when the next bus was coming. Those kinds of marquees are at EVERY single bus bus stop in Oslo, in Norway. Imagine if every bus stop had that. People would be so much less disgruntled, just knowing that the bus will be here in three minutes or whatever. I love that we're moving toward that, the apps that exist for transit that are helpful but they're not quite there yet. I am often baffled that my Uber app can tell me exactly where my car is coming from and how long it will take to get to me, but I don't know where the fuck my bus is? This doesn’t seem like rocket science. [laughs] I do love that LA is open to change, though, that this city does see that there's a future in public transit. I read an article recently too, that was laid out all the ways that LA is poised to have the best public transit in the world in the next 50 years. If we're not underwater in 50 years, that'll be awesome!

What do you dislike the most about transportation in LA?

It's not fun missing a bus, it's not fun to see it pull away when you’re just out of reach. That's no fun. It's hard sometimes to change your mindset from, “Damn it! I just missed the bus!” to “I'm early for the next one.” [laughs] That sometimes is challenging, it can be frustrating.

The thing I dislike the most, though, is the perception people have about transportation in LA. While our city is demonstrating that we’re making positive movement toward growing our public transit system, I don’t know many who individually like or even use public transit here. I hear so many people speak so badly about public transit while also really defending individual car ownership. I wish that perception about transportation in Los Angeles could change because we are such a car culture and it seems clear just how much damage that culture has done. I wish there was a better way to show others that you don't have to be chained to your SUV; it's not actually providing you with the freedom that you think it is. The best way I can think of to do that is just by modeling what I think real independence looks like: by not owning a car myself and living in a way that makes me feel truly free and unencumbered by cultural dogma.

I often don't share bad experiences that I have with public transit for that reason. It's like zero-waste in that way, if you talk about how many times you fucked up your toothpaste DIY [laughs], no one would ever try to kick packaged toothpaste. So I tend not to talk about those things all that much, but they do exist. I once sat down on a bus seat that was wet, like, it had a puddle. It turned out to be just a bottle of water, but it was still pretty gross. We've all had those experiences where things don’t go perfectly.

The homeless population on buses really bothers a lot of people. Some of my friends worry about the mental capacity of those riders; they feel like they’re putting themselves in harm’s way when they ride on buses and encounter homeless riders. But I often think about how there are about 50 people here on this bus to help me if something goes awry. If I’m driving on the 405, what’s to prevent someone with mental illness from driving right into me? And who could help me? Driving is like “every man for himself,” whereas I see the bus as community with more possibility for good than bad just like any other community. Essentially, the homeless aren’t the problem. The issue is that people see public transit as only for those who are down and out, those who are broke. Like, if you're middle-class, you shouldn't be taking it. There's a disdain for it and in a sense, that disdain kind of creates the actuality that they're afraid exists. I wish that weren't true, but I think if I hate anything about it, it's when those moments are true and I wish that they weren't.

What is the one thing you'd want to improve in transportation in LA?

The bus system is quite good and I don't think it's as bad as people think it is. If I could improve anything, I think every bus stop should have those stinkin’ marquees. Or an app that legitimately will address every bus and train line on one app because the Culver City bus, for example, isn't really on the transit map so the app isn’t accurate at all. I just can't wrap my head around why that's so difficult. I know, again with the Uber and Lyft analogy, it doesn't seem that hard to do this. Can we throw a transponder in those things? [laughs] That's negligence on Culver City's part.

This is definitely something that the City Council is contending with. It's a real fight in our community. They want to talk about bike lanes in Culver City too, about how to make more secure bike lanes that work for the community. It's something that's on the city's mind and I think, like Santa Monica, they have a lot of locals who are very active in local politics, so anyone can go to the city council meetings and to be a part of that. I definitely plan to be a part of it too because one of the reasons we gravitate toward Ballona Creek is because it's really safe. There are no cars allowed, it makes it really safe.

From your perspective, what has been the conversation like in Culver City about bike lanes?

There's a rift. My understanding is that they watch what happened down Venice Boulevard and are like, “To hell with that, I don't want that! Think of the traffic!” This is where they gravitate. Los Angeles communities gravitate to “How is this going to affect my commute?” and traffic in Culver City is really abysmal. Once we were walking to downtown Culver for dinner during rush-hour, and we got there faster than the cars. We were walking down Culver Boulevard and it was just gridlock all the way and we were walking faster. It was like something right out of the opening scene of Office Space [laughs] It's on everybody's mind but people generally go to “How's is this going to affect traffic.” I find that interesting because why don’t they instead go, “What if I rode a bike?” or “Hey, wanna take a walk?”

I went to a sustainability conference here on campus just a couple days ago and the head of the sustainability department was talking about how they got the permit to build a new power plant here on campus. When they did the permit for the City of LA, which would never allow something like this, the City of LA said, “Well, if you can take 10,000 cars off the road, you can build your plant” and UCLA was like, “Well, we'll do you one better” and we took something like 50,000 cars off the roads by creating a carshare program here on campus, as part of how Zipcar came here to UCLA.

I think that mindset is something that Los Angeles is thinking about. Like, how do we reduce traffic? And that's also happening in all these little municipalities too. In my view, I think those in Culver City who are against it because of their own commute… well, frankly, I think their way of thinking is kind of in the past and that's not the direction that we're heading thankfully. I'm glad for that. This is one of the perks of living in a more liberal community, I think.
