    This shit is crazy.

    Nursing homes are on fire, they're rolling people out in hospital beds and wheelchairs.

    They're asking for people with fire fighting experience to call or report in.

    There’s chatter about this being arson. I wonder if it’s true or bullshit.

    One tiny silver lining is that this happened while Biden is still in office. Trump would’ve withheld assistance because they didn’t vote for him.

    I left northern cal in 83 after a decade of fighting at least 7 major fires around my property. It’s still going on. I hope folks got out safely

    I guess the lack of water in the region is really hindering firefighters ability to fight the fire

    My friend's sister lives in Pallisades and her family lost their home. Completely destroyed. Horrible.

    Why doesn't southern CA supplement it's water supply with desalination plants? There were 150 in Gaza, and California only has 12.
