Leave it Fox News to point out that 'everything these people worked for their entire life is reduces to ashes - but hey, the statues are in great shape. Must be an act of 'divine intervention'.

My takeaway here is - why don't we build homes out of whatever those statues are made of.

(Preliminary) damage maps if you're interested:

Eaton Fire: https://recovery.lacounty.gov/eaton-fire/
Palisades Fire: https://recovery.lacounty.gov/palisades-fire/

Red = destroyed, black = not destroyed

They take a while to load.

The good news is that more was spared than it sounds like.

Why in the hell was Leon in that meeting? I mean who is he in this thing besides some random rich troll?

He bought Twitter, he bought Trump. He thinks he owns the USA now and everything is his business.

If anyone watched 60 minutes last night, the fire chiefs they interviewed said there weren’t enough fire trucks in the entire state that would have helped to take this fire down. It was far too massive with the addition of the historic winds spewing huge embers in every direction.

I don't often look at Your Logo Here and I post about it even less often, but I looked in tonight and I couldn't help but notice both MDD and Dr. Whom inadvertently acknowledging climate change. "Why, when I was a boy, we didn't get Santa Anas in January. They were a November thing. And they were warm." But it's not like something has changed, I guess.

The latest estimate for the Hughes fire is over 9,200 acres.

Please! I'm begging you, Governor Newscum! Turn on the imaginary tap!
