Live updates: Brush fire burns in Pacific Palisades as Santa Ana winds blast Southern California - Live video at link

[The Nothingness]

Fun fact: the city in the music video is meant to be LA.

 

[Hungry Fox]

Couldn't have happened to a more deserving group of pricks. A great start of a new year seeing the wrath of God come for that misbegotten shithole.

Where's Nero with his fiddle?

Sadly the modern version of this is a zommer flossing

 

[SaidNoOneEver]

Watching the Eaton fire area right now, and these homes might be valued at high prices because of location but these homes don’t look luxurious or 1% at all.

Regular split levels and single family homes with Kias in the driveway, not exactly the liberal elite.
Praying for them all.

None of these people whose homes are burning will be allowed to rebuild them the way they were before. CA building codes bear no resemblance to what they were when most of those structures were built. Even with insurance payouts many won't be able to afford the rebuild.

Controlled burns burn trees and might kill an endangered species and think of all the co2! You don't want to make the lorax cry do you chud?!

As a weird aside, there's a small eco-system of special flowers that only grow in California, that also only bloom after a wildfire, very funny evolutionary path if you take people out of the equation.

 

[Sithis]

Can any LA kiwis confirm if the air smells like melting sex lube and dildos?

 

[Strix454]

We aren't even a full two weeks into 2025. How could this escalate this quickly?

Its the power of Sonichu working through Dax.

This song always makes me think of my mom. Arthur Brown is in his 80s and still performs too.

Where's Nero with his fiddle?

Its Kevin Spacey and he's fiddling a young boy

 

[Fuck Bankers]

Null's music choice was pretty good too. What are some other good bangers in the theme guys?

[Mr. Pestilence]

Pretty much most of these wildfires on the West Coast wouldnt have happened to the extent they did had controlled burns been done to control detrius buildup decades prior. No detrius = No fuel for wildfires. This is what mindless climate activism brings.

 

[WelfareNiggerQueen]

I'm going to say this very slowly: Californians are still fucking American and having Los Angeles engulfed in flames is a tragedy, both in human life and in historical structures/artifacts now being destroyed

The last Americans fled Southern California back in 2010 to Colorado to shit it up and turn into California.
What remains are hordes of various foreigners and their anchor babies left to their own devices.

 

[SpergioLeonne]

My old people are here

Confirmed, nobody else in America speaks as homosexually as that, not even massholes

 

[Mr. Manchester]

As someone who hates most of the retards in LA, this is funny. As an American this is just embarrassing. The worst part is that all the rats have already fled and will get bailed out anyway.

 

[PyrrhicRustle]

I am guessing they refused to do proper managment of their forests and clear the dead wood?

It’s not dead trees in woodland, no, it’s thousands of acres of dry brush and grass in extremely difficult terrain, there isn’t really a practical way to deal with it all. Not that there aren’t some steps they could have taken, especially in creating fire breaks between settled areas and the remote wilderness where hear things often start, but you’re not stopping these fires in a dry year with any level of responsible land maintenance.

 

[MembersSchoolPizza]

Its so cute how little Republican spergs like you start celebrating that Californians are going to die as a result of this wild fire but when the shoes on the other foot you start seething and crying. Never gets old.

California is a problem of their own making. Hence the lack of sympathy.

I lived in San Diego up until I was around 10 or 11. A year or two before my family moved, there were a series of wildfires on the edges of the county. I wanna say it took two weeks for the fires to be properly contained. Some couple my parents knew lost their house. I remember waking up one morning and the sky was a bright neon orange and being told that school was cancelled and not to go outside. Horrifying stuff. We lived about a 45 minute drive from the closest fire and there was a layer of ash on everything. When we did go out, we had to wrap damp rags around our faces. It's hard to feel bad for California on a whole though as 1) these niggers voted for this and had it coming, 2) 100% chance the responsible parties said some snarky shit when NC residents were denied aid due to the blood boiling myriad of reasons that have already been mentioned, and 3) why the fuck would anyone of sound mind worth feeling sorry for still be in L.A.? Any Kiwis caught in the crosshairs, I hope you're ok and can leave the state permanently afterwards. Facing down a blaze mere miles from your home isn't anything I'd wish on most.

 

[Justa Grata Honoria]

Can some Burger knowledgeable with the subject educate us Euros why those huge wildfires can't be properly prevented?

They refuse to do proper controlled brush fire to clear the underbrush and remove the dead wood even trump knew about it and talked on joe roagan show I shit you not . Notice how this shit doesnt happen in red states where they do proper forest managment and dont have paperwork to file in the name of saving the planet and shit.

I can’t post from either channel - I guess because they’re live (?) - but tune into LA Flights and Airline Videos for some really good footage. I know, plane autism, but.

AVL’s livestream from yesterday showcased the fire’s start until well into the night. It looks like literal Hell.
