About Los Angeles

Lemme paint it—dim lights, smoky air, tacky velvet. Girls in heels clickin’, laughin’ too loud. Some cat in the corner, drunk, yellin’ “You’re mine!” Hilarious, right? But it’s sad too—damn, that hits. “The knife cuts both ways,” like in *Moolaadé*. These chicks, they’re trapped, but they hustle hard. Respect, yo—I’m shook by that grit. Little secret? Back in 1800s Paris, brothels had *menus*. Yup, like freakin’ McDonald’s—pick your flavor! Wild, huh?

Denby Fawcett: The Brothels of Chinatown

Remember that old fountain near Ross Court? Man, I used to sit there on sultry nights, thinkin’ about passion, relationships, and how sometimes love is messy but oh-so-beautiful. Crazy how this city, it makes ya feel all inspired and alive. I mean, what? It’s like a scene straight outta "The Royal Tenenbaums" – quirky, odd, imperfectly perfect.
