A drug for diabetis, but used for weight loss. (Maybe some bad side effectsm, but ...)
See how well it worked in Paris.
Soon will work better in LA.

Maybe 2032 is looking better. But it'll be in Brisbane, Australia. Maybe I'll finally be able to watch it in 2036 because it won't be held in the decadent West.
Gonna try too top the ‘24 events in gay pairee? Big pumps to fill.
Why am I not surprised the mayor would pull such a stunt like that?!
BASS is out for re-election in 2026.
SHE may have screwed herself out of that job with this announcement.
I lived in LA in 1984. I had to WORK-—EVERY day & on weekends. NONE of MY income could take a hit & I COULD NOT WORK FROM HOME DOING BOOKKEEPING & PAYROLLS FOR SMALL BUSINESSES. Neither could my clients....Maytag dealer —ENGINE builders (2)...restaurant....roofing company-— fastener hardware supplier-—horse boarding stable-—Advertising company-—Machine shop-—small boutique-—ETC.
One thing that was done & worked well was a shift in businesses hours.
Companies were asked to shift to 6 Am or 7 Am hours instead of 8 Am or 9 Am. That really cut down on traffic & opened up movement for attendees of the events.
BUT all CARS gone???
I am pretty sure that the population of almost 4 million people who work are not going to be able to “WORK FROM HOME”.
Contractors have deadlines with penalties for over running time...They cannot do that.
The housekeepers for all those guest rooms cannot do that.
The servers & bartenders for all those meals & parties cannot do that.
The purveyors for all that entertaining cannot do that.
The laundries & dry cleaners cannot do that.
Firemen cannot do that.
Law officers cannot do that.
The people who replenish supplies EVERYWHERE in LA cannot do that.
Those who actually MAKE THINGS——welders—machinists—carpenters-—cement finishers—roofers—CANNOT DO THAT.
The farriers who shoe all the horses in LA COUNTY CANNOT do that. Also the veterinarians who care for them....THERE ARE MORE HORSES IN THAT COUNTRY THAN YOU WOULD EVER GUESS.
The nurses & doctors & maintenance workers in the medical facilities CANNOT DO THAT.
The sales persons who staff stores & other businesses cannot work from home. The staff at Home Depot—Lowe’s—Grainger, etc. cannot work from home.
NO ONE can order everyone to all take their “VACATIONS” in the same 17 days.
I would guess that 95% +++ of working people in Los Angeles CANNOT work from home.
The bigger problem is: WHERE ARE THEY GOING TO HIDE ALL THE HOMELESS? THE VISITORS to the Olympics may wish to see “Hollywood & Graumanns & other local sights.
Can a lifeguard “WORK FROM HOME”???? SO they are closing down all the beaches?????
The Hairdressers & manicurists cannot work from home.
The PARKING ATTENDANTS & VALETS cannot work from home.
MAYBE THE BUS DRIVERS ALSO NEED TO :”WORK FROM HOME”.
NONE of this is going to be acceptable.
THIS IS TOTALLY NUTS....But BASS has never been very bright.
The city will be better off if she is replaced in 2026.
Karen Bass is a commie. She can’t help herself.
The HOMELESS and their poo and urine cannot be disinfected off the streets.
The DRUG GANGS and their shoot-outs cannot be eliminated along with their narcotics.
And the RATS along with the DEMONKKKRATS . . .
let the games begin...
That I’ve seen. The rest I ignored.
Jill Biden was in Paris chortling over the prospect of the ‘28 Olympics being “all Hollywood”. Given the current state of Hollywood, that isn’t good news.
F the Olympics. A pervert parade.
Hopefully Bass will lose her reelection and someone with a brain can change this abortion in the making. But I doubt it.
I was in LA also. Watched the marathon and that was it.
California is well known for its abundant public transportation and for the fact that everything is pretty much within walking distance.
I am every day amazed at how out of touch, out of any good reason, out of common sense, and out of their friggin minds these people are. Just one example...”She says that on top of the new transportation, she would encourage businesses to allow employees to work from home during the 17 days that the games were in the area, hopeful to avoid traffic jams.” Has this dim witted cretin actually considered how many workers cannot do this? Tell the repair man to work at home, and the landscapers, construction worker, truckers, mechanics, and the Amazon dude who brings you your junk to just take a vacation. Without pay of course.
BelgumNigerian boxer who sparred with khelif said she was told by Algerian national team that he lived in the mountains and it changed his chromosomes and hormones and gave him male powers
Boxing will certainly be a mess at the LA Olympics in the heart of wokedom.
Sounds like a real snafu, situation normal, all uh fouled up.
