   Who’s Really to Blame for the LA Fires

   The Los Angeles fires were not preventable, virtually nothing could have been done to prevent the devastation. While it’s natural for people to seek someone or something to blame—often focusing on the response to the fire—the truth is that the root cause runs so much deeper than that.

   My response: human hubris is the cause, on so many levels. :blobfoxupsidedown:

   At the same time, I also know a ton of people who have this assumption that 'the only places worth vacationing in' are those that are 'clean' and 'luxurious'. I saw someone say they didn't think Lombok was worth visiting because it was 'full of sad poor people' unlike 'Bali'. If someone is going to say that, and outright says they don't want to see that poor people exist, there's no reason anyone should encourage them to see the world outside of the world's biggest luxury hotspots. Let them have at it. Even if they are in a 3h traffic jam in Bali to get to like, Potatohead or something like that.

   My own thoughts on recreational travel have also changed, in that I'd like to do less of it, especially by air, but at the same time India is always 'home' for me in some way: my friends, family friends, and the organization I have built over the last 13 years there (an education nonprofit).

   I'm thankful to have this deep relationship with a place that has so much to offer.

   Voters want change. For better or worse, they've elected a president who will certainly deliver that.

   No, you assumed that.

   My choice would be that she would rot in prison in the Hague for the rest of her life.

   I crammed in SO many tasks and errands to secure a day off tomorrow for vaccine recuperation. I got three tonight. Three.

   Found #Novavax nearby! 🎉 Also got flu shot. AND they already had the Mpox vax so I got that, too.

   Unlike many in my generation I never had the smallpox vaccine so I didn't even have residual immunity from that.

   My kid is not old enough for #Mpox (you must be--not 18, but 19!) so they only had two. Still, I am feeling okay so far while they are already sore.

   I absolutely acknowledge that.

   My only concern is that a Palestinian whose seen his entire family get wiped the fuck out and his land bombed, burnt, & then taken by an army and armed settler militias explicitly glossing themselves as "Zionist" may not see things with the same outward broad analysis as we looking in on this atrocity do. Their perspective may be shaded by rage of being targeted, but it is there nevertheless.

   Not trying to pitch a battle; just thinking aloud.
