Oh, and she ended up demanding I call the cops.

Karen Chu @karenchu.online · 15/09/2026

She should thank me for even warning her that there’s someone lurking around…while she hangs out by herself out front distracted by the phone with her back to the entry way. 🤦🏻‍♀️

I just heard a stranger walking thru my backyard. Went to frantically ask my neighbor if she saw anything/anyone & she got mad at me for interrupting her call w/ her daughter even tho i said “excuse me, can i ask you a question?” first. Btw her daughter (on speaker phone) was more helpful than her 😒

If you can’t figure out that aluminum soda cans can’t be composted, I don’t think you should be working at Apple. Just sayin 😒

It’s 100° in LA right now 🫠 and it’s climbing

Thanks for that. Sucked to come home late after a hospital visit with no one really to debrief with. I couldn’t sleep all night. My empathy levels are off the charts.
