Our Taco Bell burned down too. But it's okay because I eat Rancheritos or Betos anyways.

“the new day brought gruesome discoveries and a grim new record. As of late Friday, officials said nine people have been killed, and more than 6,700 buildings – the vast majority of them homes – have been destroyed in Butte County, making the Camp Fire the most destructive blaze in state history.
In 24 hours, the fire has reached 90,000 acres – more than 140 square miles. Fire containment is at 5 percent.”

-Sacramento Bee


“what’s happening here is that it’s the ultimate example of Trumpian corruption. We have good reason to believe that Trump and his associates are selling out America for the sake of personal gain. When it comes to climate, however, they aren’t just selling out America; they’re selling out the whole world”

^ Wow. The forces of nature are just brutal: this disaster has happened so fast, with fires at one point expanding at a rate of one football field per second. The confusion about escape routes seems paricularly tragic to me. In the movies, the hero hops in a car and escapes as a matter of course. The reality is that ordinary people find themselves making split-second life or death decisions without having the overall picture; just horrible.

^ Yes, and as for catastrophes that are increasing because of global warming, Trump's response to mass shooting incidents shows a similar lack of accountability. Did you see the grieving woman this morning, who lost her son at the Borderline Bar, saying, "I don't want thoughts. I don't want prayers. I want gun control." ? IMO she is right to be furious at the politicians with their glib condolences who won't shift from their NRA (or from their fossil fuel) agendas. I wish those politicians would just one time the victims, "That's bad luck. Today, for your sake, I'm going to put on my serious face on all the way to the bank."

I read about it.

I don’t care how utopian or unreachable this is: the entire government needs to be disarmed and so do the citizenry

Repeal the Second Amendment

Defund the military to zero. Disarm the police.

No I’m not joking. This is what must be done.
