Venice Healer Daisy is officialy running for Santa Monica City Council. A Santa Monica that builds systems rooted in care: meeting basic needs with dignity, strengthening community bonds, protecting our environment, and ensuring no person or neighborhood is left behind.

"I've lived the survival stress of homelessness and the long path of recovery. I've learned firsthand what it means when systems are built on scarcity instead of care—how loneliness multiplies suffering, how shame replaces dignity. But I've also experienced the healing power of community, the resilience in human connection, and what becomes possible when people are met with compassion instead of judgment."

"I'm running because I want to build a Santa Monica where fewer people have to survive the way I did. Where everyone belongs. Where our systems are designed to meet needs, reduce suffering, and lift people up with their dignity intact. That's what a caring city looks like."

Around 11:35am on Thursady, a flatbed work truck carrying a load of scaffolding driving downhill on Chautauqua towards Pacific Coast Highway crossed over the oncoming lane and into the building that is at the corner of Chautauqua and West Chanel Road where they meet PCH.

The driver was trapped inside the truch for about 2 hours as a crew of roughly 35 Los Angeles Fire Fighters worked to free him. Using using hydraulic tools, known as the Jaws of Life, to cut into the trapped flatbed truck's cab, they pulled the driver out, and he was taken to a local hospital. No information on his condition is avaliable.

“It’s not your typical traffic accident,” said LAFD public information officer Captain Anthony Tubbs. “You have the building issue and the concern of stability, and then you have the vehicle, which is in itself impaled and damaged.”

No one was inside the building at the time of the crash.

The truck belongs to IVO Wall Experts, a drywall contractor based in City of Commerce. It was removed from the building with a crane.

As of Thursdsay afternoon, the streets remain closed as the cause of the accident remains under investigation. Photo above is fron LAFD.

Checking out the cars at the 2026 Killer Shrimp Killer Rides Car Show in Marina del Rey

Rip City Skates has been in the same little building on Santa Monica Boulevard since 1978 — and it looks like it, in the best possible way. In this one, I take you inside one of the longest-running skate shops in the world: the shop you've seen in the Bones Brigade Video Show, packed floor to ceiling with nearly five decades of skate history. And I stop by the Skateboarding Hall of Fame and Museum, where founder Todd Huber explains just how rare it is for a skate shop to be inducted.

Trash everywhere. Two days after the end of the controversial "FiFA World Cup Fan Zone" at Venice Beach the area is still littered with garbage.

The grass has been destroyed, trash is still everyone on the ground. The organizers have left abandoned the site, the city workers are left cleaning up their mess, with locals steppong in to help out.

Huge sections of the grass is now dirt, because the booths and installations left over the 5 days have killed the grass.

Venice Healer Daisy and her fiend, singer/songwriter Jaida Henley visit a new shop on the Venice Beach Boardwalk, Sprayed, where you can learn how to make graffiti art.
