Many of California’s native ecosystems evolved to burn. Modern fire suppression creates fuels that lead to catastrophic fires. So why do people insist on rebuilding in the firebelt? An excerpt from Ecology of Fear: Los Angeles and the Imagination of Disaster by Mike Davis.

I read an interesting story from Dropsite that I'm not going to link because it's on Substack. But it was a deeper dive into the LA Fire Dept budgeting over the last few years.

I'll just say that decisions were made that look pretty stupid today in light of the destruction of entire sections of the city.

But what strikes me is the difference between the discussions of fire dept budgets vs police dept budgets.

We have a priorities problem in the USA.

Hey Hollywood! Hey Actors! Hey Producers and Writers!

Exxon just took your stuff and home. Ruined your world, and they're paying rapists to lie about it.

Thats as true as anything ever written. As solid as a rock.

What are you going to do about.

Exxon and the oil cons aren't done burning your world.

What are you going to do about it?

Canada is helping California fight the devastating wildfires! Several provinces AND agencies are providing support. Quebec has sent two of its CL-415 water bombers, pilots & their crews to assist in the firefighting efforts. Ontario and Alberta have announced plans to deploy resources, including water bombers and firefighters as well.

It's heartwarming, THANK YOU, CANADA. 🇨🇦

Southern California's water supplies are well-equipped to support local communities fighting the wildfires. Many of the state’s largest reservoirs are currently at or above their historic average storage levels for this time of year. #LAFires

Los Angeles wildfires: Families return to search the ruins for memories

Some Los Angeles area residents have begun returning to their still smoldering neighborhoods to search for memories even as the threat of new fires persists. For many it has been a first look at the staggering reality of what was lost.

Megan Fan Munce: CEO of California’s third-largest home insurer says state will still be insurable after L.A. fires

"The ongoing Los Angeles wildfires are the pinnacle in a series of bad blazes that have plunged the state’s insurance market into a state of deep crisis.

But the CEO and president of the third largest home #insurance company in the state believes that #California, and its wildfires, are still insurable."

What blows my mind is that so many people who have lost everything are still offering to help others in need.
Los Angeles has proven to be a stand up community in the face of extraordinary adversity.
Jamie Lee Curtis has posted these places to help on Threads. We have already donated to the Fire Department and will continue to donate to other relief efforts. If you are able, please help. #lafires #lafires2025 #losangeles

What governments need to do whenever there's one of these gigantic insurable disasters is distribute money (billions) divided appropriately within the insurance industry so that the burden doesn't create insurance premiums like we're seeing in places like Florida

Victims of the #LAFires: don't let the insurance companies gaslight you. After trump is sworn in, the government will be against you like it was against Puerto Rico during #HurricaneMaria. Get together and make a plan and set sail for #Lenai and take it from trumpist Larry Ellison. No jury in the land will convict you. #VivaLuigi!

The Los Angeles fires have devastated the historically Black neighborhood of Altadena. This was perhaps the first middle-class Black neighborhood in California, as it was a rare area not subject to redlining. Many whose homes were destroyed lived in homes passed down for generations 💔

Historic Black neighborhood of Altadena reduced to ashes in Los Angeles Wildfires

Amongst the thousands of acres set aflame by the Los Angeles wildfires, Altadena, a historically Black neighborhood, is left incinerated.

People with disabilities are so often not considered or only minimally so in almost everything that happens in society.
Natural disasters amplify that.
A terrifying recounting here by a man who fled the fires in his wheelchair on the street, as wheelchair-accessible cars couldn’t get to him and the sidewalks were inaccessible.
Most of us will be disabled at some point in life, even if only temporarily due to an illness or surgery.

The Great Fire
Friends,
The following is the best account I’ve read of the fire that’s consuming Los Angeles. It’s from Steve Schmidt’s substack, The Warning. (steveschmidt.substack.com.

“….The scale of the conflagration is biblical. These epochal fires will join Chicago and San Francisco atop an infamous registry of American destruction….”

There are sanctuaries in the area taking animals, but there is a need for foster homes for pets affected by this.

We don't live there anymore, but we have an emotional attachment to it—so it hits home for us. Please disseminate widely. I want to be sure people are able to reach legit resources.
