Containment finally begins with the Palisades Fire along with growing Containment of the remaining fires. We are not out of the woods yet but this is a step in the right direction.

Thank you to the firefighters (including the incarcerated people who are out there risking their lives)

Note from OP: I will be undergoing two procedures on Thursday and Friday. Updates will be slow and spread out. Please use local news channels (KTLA, ABC10,ect), CalFire, and the Watch Duty app for updates 🙏🏽 Stay safe, everyone (you can find links at the bottom of this post)

really depressing as hell that people are clowning around about these fires. especially the Eaton fire, these are normal neighborhoods, with families that have lived here for many years. it's not just millionaires vacation homes burning down. especially pasadena and altadena, many parts of them are historically black neighborhoods that date back to the area as an industrial hub in the early 1900s. and almost all the public schools in Pasadena are title 1, meaning they serve student populations at or below the poverty line. these are my neighbors, this is my neighborhood. and it's all gone now. Also!!! the news keep on rolling the same footage of these mcmansions on fire, but won't show the apartments (like mine) and small homes that are burning and gone. it's unbelievably tragic

Please be kind to wild animals they want to live too. Please keep your pets indoors and if you evacuate please take them with you.

LA is running out of water‼️

“There’s no water in the fire hydrants,” Caruso said. “The firefighters are there [in the neighborhood], and there’s nothing they can do — we’ve got neighborhoods burning, homes burning, and businesses burning. ... It should never happen.”

When there’s a fire in LA we can talk about the loss of life and the near irreparable harm done to the communities living there.

When it’s Ukraine, Palestine, Afghanistan, etc we only talk about it through a lens of politics. Please treat all loss of human life as loss of human life. A war is a wildfire as well.
