#Random ramblings for this morning.

I have a very strong "Cassandra" sense (also "GTFO" and as my friend @densaer @densaer.bsky.social calls it "Sentinel Chicken" instinct)

I have learned not to ignore that sense. Most of us live in a world of "Normalcy Bias", where we think things are normal and everyday.

I had a huge sense of that on both the Palisades Fire and Eaton Fire, and discovered that even seasoned fire trackers DO NOT HAVE that same ability to "see" (or predict) the future. When your senses are yelling GTFO, and people say "oh it's not that bad", DO NOT IGNORE YOUR INSTINCTS. In these fires this week, it was fatal. DO NOT WAIT FOR AUTHORITIES TO SAY GO.
