The purpose of the (Wednesday) meeting is to put on a charade.

They're asking for a $79 million increase with no restraints on how they're going to spend it.

It's driven by the government doing a regulatory taking on a piece of property.

I just think it's obscene to scare the public with public safety cuts. They need to prioritize the budget.

I've heard from a lot of people, mostly small-business owners, about how they feel neglected by City Hall. It's a way to get the city's attention.

When you go on your Twitter or look down your Timeline and it's all great positivity - I love that. But at the same time, it can really divert you from what your purpose is or what you're trying to do. And I've seen artists get caught up in that.
