    Things happening because of climate change and people still believe it's everything but climate change

    I mean, not the best move for the government, but I doubt this wouldve been immediately fully contained even with the right resources. People would still be blaming the government even if everything was in place.

    When ppl say climate change (which is legitimate, this aint a denier post) it’s turned into a scapegoat that’s given government officials a get out of jail free card and I dont really rock with that.

    Extra funding abso-fucking-lutely woulda helped. Making the LAFD not damn near halfway ran off slave labor woulda helped.

    Not consistently cutting the budgets to a department that is needed for a state that HISTORICALLY needs said department abso-fucking-lutely woulda helped. They said there was hydrants that had no goddamn water in em.

    Addressing the city’s problems of addiction and systematic neglect (allegedly, hollywood hills fire was started via arson) instead of “uh um..the homeless did it!”abso-fucking-lutely woulda helped.

    Yall gotta stop letting these motherfuckers off the hook. Yes, climate change is real and knocking on the goddamn door. The government can be…NOT splurging money on the b**** ass police force. Wtf them hoe ass niggas doing when a fire come out?

    Karen Bass is 110% gone. You know she feels the heat cause she was bought to fire the LAFD chief for (rightfully) dissing her but after a meeting she didn’t.

    Newsom might have to change up policies.

    Dems in the wake of a red wave across the country are doing a great job at…showing why they been losing for the past few decades.

    Doesn’t even matter the cause the person you quoted is still right about insurance companies being evil asf throughout this whole thing.

    Y’all love dividing mfs at a time when unity is desperately needed

    I’m taking the actual LAFD Chief’s words over somebody that dont even live in LA on twitter you weirdo.

    Damn the family at the end. Didn’t consider how extra f***ed over you would be losing a rented house. Losing all your stuff without any insurance aid for the house itself

    Renters insurance probably even worse to deal with than regular homeowner insurance

    Renters insurance is cheap af. I never assumed it would cover a lot

    Man we are so f***ed once the winds come back this weekend

    https://twitter.com/DBoHi_C/status/1877971186929291733

    Santa Ana winds blow offshore, pushing fires toward the ocean. Because of its relative proximity to the coastline, this is a better scenario for containing the Palisades fire than if winds were blowing the fire directly inland.

    I'm worried about the Eaton fire. There are many communities near Pasadena that are going to have a scary 72 hours.

    If you're interested in the subject, I really like ventusky.com for wind info. It has a great interactive wind map for your location with forecasts.

    The absolute lack of any precipitation is crazy.. no signs of any rain out for the 10 day forecast

    , I’m curious for locals how bad has this drought been compared to years past?

    It’s pretty crazy — we’ve had wayyyyy less precipitation on average the last 10 years than normal (obviously a result of Climate Change) but this year has been crazy low

    Funnily enough, last year was by far the most precipitation we’ve had that I can remember since I was a kid tho (because of El Niño I think?) — there was rain (and a lot of it) like at least once every week from November to April
