#CulverCity is home to #SonyPictures and #Rainbow by #TonyTasset. At 94ft, it's visible throughout the city and takes inspiration from imagination, optimism and #TheWizardofOz, which filmed on the then #MGM lot in the late 1930s. #photography #americana #wa #california #architecture #californication #canon80d #colorphotography #blackandwhitephotography #movies #trivia #funfacts #hollywood

Nobody ever go to Southern California Hospital in Culver city, or anywhere.

They all seem like they have matching gang tattoos from a Mexican cartel, it seemed like the zombie apocalypse up in that ER-bullshit, and they tried to steal my stuff.

So I beat one of them up and they didn't call the police, and the police officer in the lot just said "Oh you got beat up? Don't steal people's shit," to the guy.

It's cartel run!

Official hospitals!
