no i didn't start the fire in santa monica
before anyone throws around accusations
no i didn't start the fire in santa monica
started getting santa ana winds (fast dry wind come from the south east) so this fire is going to likely be uncontrollable for the foreseeable future
if you were hoping the raytheon's campus would burn down, it won't
but you can watch an interactive 3d map of malibu burning down
@ekis Every time there’s a storm heading towards Florida I watch to see if it will hit Mar-a-Lago. They keep by-passing that area. Depending on your point of view, that’s proof there is no god or proof that - like in Buffy and Angel - someone made supernatural deals for “protection”.
basically where the fire is, my guess is it will be using primarily mansions as tinder
dont even need to say im fireproof
i may suffocate from asthma tho
@ekis
"no i didn't start the fire in santa monica"
- she hacked you
if you are really nerdy, calfire provides the best maps
It is now a named fire, Palisades Fire
510.7133 hectares burned (idk americans, you gotta learn sometime)
0% containment
Also interesting to watch flight tracker data aggregator around the area rn
ever laugh at a picture of fire?
im far more sympathetic about the ongoing genocide in palestine and war crimes done in in lebanon than this fire
this is like new orleans; or las vegas; these are cities that should no longer exist, and their existence is a monument to the fact that we have zero intention of doing any thing about climate catastrophe
become a climate refugee or have your house burn down every year
the disaster is not coming
http://iscaliforniaonfire.com/
this will never be no in my lifetime or yours
and now we have a second named fire, Eaton Fire, 202 hectares
Both are still 0% containment, not an expert, but i suspect that means they are growing
the Eaton Fire, this will affect people without second homes
it will be interesting to compare the two responses
so, yes both fires cause is still under investigation, who cares
I probably have an alibi
trees i burnt
winds are pretty fast right now, this is a really bad mixture of things
new named fire just dropped, Hurst fire 🚒
all three remain 0% contained, so they are expanding; so not its a matter of watching the rate of growth
all joking aside, these fires are probably due to sce (our local energy monopoly) incompetence and if they kill me im going to be so upset
someone better avenge me
everything is fine
@ekis
Thinking about you. Especially during the news cycles. Try to stay safe.
@ekis its for the best
@alloydflanagan There is another option? Running pumps 24/7 is a practical thing to continue doing?
While we engage in multiple wars?
While mass extinction occurs?
Like when then? Its already too late, so when? I know, when the poor have no choice but become refugees?
@ekis I’ve seen an estimate for the cost of abandoning New Orleans of 10 trillion dollars (not a typo). I don’t think they’ll do it until there’s no other option.
@alloydflanagan Decision has long been made, we going to walk off the cliff knowingly
I have family in New Orleans, I have family history there; but what about your families future?
Should they all wait till there is literally no choice but to walk away with the clothes on their back or starve when the government fails to help them?
You have found a new named fire(s): Woodley fire obtained.
Olivas fire obtained.
Your inventory is full.
And, well the Mansion (Palisades) fire continues, becoming more dangerous by the second
leaving, it wont be a choice eventually
and the companies that will push be directly responsible for actively pushing people out will be the insurance companies not giving people policies for fire
its an inevitability
@ekis
Fuck.
😰 😿
Good luck.
the Olivias fire, is located in Ventura County; I'm not going to draw lines of what to determine which vestiges of white only suburbs is included in LA or not
3 people from the area upon hearing the location of the fire said "great" or "awesome"
It is right next to the harbor filled with expensive boats
thankfully, olivas is extinguished
my trees are burning tho
if you are not aware, when CA has fires like this; we use prison slave labor in incredibly dangerous places, with limited support
when i was last here it was something like 3 dollars an hour, people who were hired to this position by the state started at more than 25; cant imagine this disparity got any better
dont look to this like reporting, before you do this; you must realize i posted the wrong picture of what weed i was smoking
i misreported important information, this morning I started smoking this, not the other one posted earlier. this is an important correction I want to get right, the rest of my mistakes whatever
@eemmaa i worked for the state, scientists i worked in the same building with went out with the prisoners when it was safer to do brush removal
it is a good thing we didn't pass prop 6 to outlaw prison slave labor
otherwise, might have had to pay closer to a living wage for incredibly dangerous work
In California, the most "progressive" place in the empire, we reject Prop 6
"Remove Involuntary Servitude as Punishment for Crime Amendment"
We are complicit in a genocide, and the key to our soft power, and global economic significance is at risk of going up in flames
But I can get weed and hash at the highest quality, with effect profiles at match the resulting reactions
going swimmingly
California sold their souls for weed legality, if they resisted even a tiny bit, they could get LSD legalized.
My countrymen are cowards
They are not even using this opportunity as cover to rob banks or armored truck facilities
first arrests for "looting"
🌧️_🌧️
dont loot, but if you do, dont do it, but if you do do it, dont get captured
dont do it, i said not to do it
@ekis
They weren't stealing, they were playing short-necked plucked guitars.
trees updates, good thing these chemicals advertise to put me at ease, while keeping me focused enough for work
its fine, everything is fine, it would costs too much to solve climate catastrophe, stop asking already
You have found new fire(s):
Sunset Fire
Lidia Fire
You are now encumbered, you can no longer move
@alloydflanagan So what is the price of the people who lose their lives, their homes
Right now there is zero plan. just let the billionaires build bunkers while the clock runs out
Five people have died, but don't worry none were CEOs far as I can tell
just from the way air resources are being deployed you can tell the biggest concern is the sunset fire, b/c the santa anas winds will likely blow the fire right into beverly hills if it does not get under control quickly
