The final image from the other camera at the same site looked somewhat dire as well 😔

Same guy posted a longer video this morning. Showed him running down the street and disappearing down the long driveway before reappearing with the bicycle.

So a resident, rescuing his bicycle 🤗

I made the mistake of clicking on one of the FOX livestreams (LiveNow). Immediately saw the "reporter"/camera looming over the mayor of Los Angeles: "This is all your fault, what do you say to the people who lost their homes because of you? What do you have to say to them?"

Utter scum.

Yeah, concrete construction and roof tiles should be required for people who want to live right next to a giant pile of tinder in a dry climate 😬

It's also great for temperature insulation.


@me_valentijn @evilotto @argv_minus_one @ai6yr it's a bit challenging to understand the scale of what's happening but this photo from Wednesday night gives a good idea for Altadena. The fire went a couple miles into the town and burned out the downtown. Trying to remake all of that in concrete will be difficult and concrete is not great for CO2 emissions 😬

Hopefully calm enough for firefighters to be able to get caught up with it 😬

Soon as you set one of those up, they start bulldozing and eating boomers 😔


@me_valentijn @MsMerope I built one of those, you know! I'm going to go to sleep until the fire pager goes off, LOL.

Generally isn't much to unravel when it comes to femicide in a relationship. Dude thought he owned her, her behavior challenged that, and now she's dead and he's all sad because he broke the thing he liked and is going to prison.

"Why did all these cars get abandoned in the middle of the road by antisocial jerks??? Ohhhh, shit, we gotta run!" 😂

(Road is blocked by said cars, and looked to be imminently engulfed by the fire. People ditched them to avoid being barbecued.)


@me_valentijn @W6KME @ai6yr Traffic management is super important in these events. This was a cluster.

KTLA 5 has live coverage from just north of Santa Ynez Lake. Majorly backed up, a lot of people walking, probably after abandoning vehicles.

Also two obligatory burning palms along the evacuation route 😬

"I haven't been able to think of anything useful to invent, so here is yet another death bicycle which is massively less safe and efficient than a normal one 🤗 "

I'd suggest a contest to design the worst bike, but these guys don't need any incentive apparently 😂

For a frame of reference, warnings for strong tornadoes get upgraded to PDS when they're about to hit a pretty populated area.

High risk of people getting splatted 😬

It seemed like it was one of those nearly-unpaid because skiing is FUN jobs even in goofy movies from the 80's 😔

Sounds like they think it might be on par with the 2011 Pasadena wind storm. That one does look like it caused some serious mayhem 😬

Costco gave the anti-DEI brigade a big "fuck you" in response, which is what all these cowards should be doing instead of appeasing bigots.
