Been watching the news RE the Fires in Pacific Palisades?
Do an AI search on the Area RE Insurance
- In July 2024, State Farm reportedly dropped approximately 1,600 policies in Pacific Palisades, affecting nearly 70% of their policyholders in the area.
- In 2022 alone, 732 fire insurance policies were not renewed in Pacific Palisades, accounting for 11% of such policies in the neighborhood
As a result of these cancellations, many homeowners in Pacific Palisades we're forced to seek coverage through the California FAIR (Fair Access to Insurance Requirements) Plan:
- By 2024, roughly 1,400 of the town's 9,000 homes were covered by the FAIR Plan, more than quadruple the number in 2020 and many were underinsured.
And Look at the Prices of the Homes. 😬
it gets worse
you need to pay the City of Casey Council $500 for a Tent 🤣
i smell a rat (and i'm not saying this is what's happening here) but let's do a mind experiment
and I say this for all Councils in the State of Victoria under the new Act
lets say you were a liberal minded councillor
with a Monitor watching your every move
the best tactic wouldn't be to comply
the best tactic would be to take their 'principles' and rules and implement them fully
the thing about the whole regulatory thing, is the proponents are doing it for control. So they drip feed it out... causing outrage as they go, and winning the arguments
well what if some smart councillors did the opposite
they looked at the Monitor and their regulations, and they said screw this
and they implemented fully what they want
but in doing it, they made it so ridiculous - and so egregious they knew it'd blow up
the City of Casey in this example is charging home owners $500 to erect a tent
and the wording is so vague and broad it couldn't possibly (in my opinion) be held up in court
they must have known this would create a circus
if they didn't i'd be gobsmacked
that's why it's so funny and engaging
it's curious that what was once a Liberal Stronghold area out east that's gradually gone to Labor - 3-4 months from an election over Christmas has dropped this
if this is political strategy its utter genius.
I've been saying for years. The best thing we can do, is not incrementally move to the end point of this absurd ideal base
it's to move directly there
implement it in full
then you get to see it in reality 😆
500 hundred dollar permit for a Tent...
LOL - and it also includes a Caravan.
So if you own a Caravan in Casey you probably should also be upset 😂 A special shout-out to a keen observer for finding this.

As I embark on my AskBeevs learning journey - I found a new way to express how an image makes me feel.
When I see this Tray, I find it quite aggressive. Look it's coming at me. Keep off my tail it says.
Look at it. It's amazing. You can only accentuate it in a digital world.

You can thank AskBeevs for this one. I'll do a better analysis of it tomorrow.
not a bad retail experience
did you realise, that Canva has a service to make your own clothing? its 30 bucks for a mint quality shirt delivered. Honestly thats cheaper than almost any Tshirt one level above Kmart and it actually fits. And if you Put a business Logo of Yourself on it, and Your a millionaire you can Probably write close to Half it off on Tax which definitely makes it Cheaper than Kmart. So in Actual Fact, Its the Best Deal in Retail. thats Beevornomics at work. And if the Post Goes Well you can earn that back to. And that income you can use to buy more Clothes. Its purpetual.
Today I had a look at Perplexity Spaces
This is Legit now, worth the $20 USD. I actually signed up for it. Not sure if I'll keep it -
but this offers some cool functionality.
it fuses the GPT upload concept, but this time it lets you upload 5 25mb text files to include in it's knowledge window
then it also can be tuned into it's knowledge repositories that are absolutely massive.
So say for example, you wrote a Strategy. You could upload that Strategy. Upload - all the other Enterprise Strategies - Then ask it to look at those, PLUS what it knows from all it's knowledge to improve what you've written.
Deep Deep knowledge Capabilities - all in a user friendly interface. And the Space can be shared with up to 10 people.
This is actually really wicked. Check it out.
