Twitter used to be extremely helpful for following local news but now not….

Hard to process the devastation I’ve witnessed in the last two days. Still in a state of shock for those who have lost so much in such a short period of time. 💔
urgh I've done it, after 17 (!) years I've just deleted my Facebook account for good
probably a bit pointless as I still plan to use Instagram but you know, better than nothing, probably
Imagine watching disaster movies like The Day After Tomorrow or 2012 and thinking that the apocalyptic weather scenes were the “unrealistic” part.
Turns out those scenes were almost bang on.
The unrealistic part was the humans working together to overcome the problem & save the world. Sigh.

That's how much Big Oil has spent over the last 30 years paying off Congress to look the other way on climate action while the planet burns.
Well, the planet is burning.
Don't let them look away.

In 1850, the California government banned the controlled burning that Indigenous people had been doing for centuries. The practice controlled the forest density, scaled down undergrowth, and promoted fire-resistant species. It reduced the severity, mileage, and overall number of forest fires. 1/5

The devastation in California is apocalyptic. The images are heartbreaking.
At least 5 fires continue to burn without containment.

Everyone likes music that someone thinks sucks.
We all suck.

Who tortured the innocent, wrongly accused
For the price of promotion
And justice to sell
May the judged be their judges
