Water in California. It is the most crucial resource in California and the state's existence and wealth depends on it so by all metrics it's completely fucked and controlled not by the state or federal government but by literal California oligarchs. The subject could fill a book, and loads of books have been written about it. This is not the first time people in Southern California have had their lives ruined and/or died as a result of botched water management by the snakes that run California, no sir, not by a long shot.

And then they came for the water in Northern California.

So it turns out Fury Road is an accurate representation of Californian politics.


An indoctrinated people, a ruler that can care less if the people underneath him died and on top of that, controls the water.

LA traffic warden slammed for 'issuing parking tickets' as wildfires rage​

A Santa Monica traffic warden has been slammed after appearing to issue parking tickets as the Los Angeles wildfires continue to ravage the area.

In a clip posted to X, formerly known as Twitter, can be seen leaning over a car, although it is not clear whether they are placing a ticket on the windshield.

In the background, dark gray smoke billows menacingly in the sky.

Desperate residents have been evacuating the area in recent hours with the parking warden sparking outrage for the seemingly callous act amid the devastating blaze.

The video, which has been widely shared online, claims to have been taken on January 7, 2025 at 3.15pm.

'The world is literally burning around us and SMPD is still out here giving out street sweeping tickets,' user Suzi Mellano wrote.

Shocked users shared their thoughts online - although it is not yet clear if the video is legitimate.

'This perfectly exemplifies living in LA,' one user declared.

'This is so on brand omg,' another responded scathingly.

Others suggested it could have been for the greater good.

'As much as I hate parking enforcement, and I hate them a lot, maybe it's to keep the streets clear in the event emergency vehicles need to access those areas,' one man pointed out.

'They're only getting tickets if illegally parked.'

'Are they parked in front of a hydrant though?' questioned another.

DailyMail.com has reached out to the City of Santa Monica for comment.

In recent days, footage of cars abandoned on the road as desperate residents fled the area has been widely-shared online.

Clips shared by NBC journalist Katherine Picazo earlier in the week on X showed a bulldozer clearing the roadways by shoving abandoned vehicles into piles near Sunset Boulevard.

Firefighters have been battling an enormous blaze in Los Angeles that broke out Tuesday evening near a nature reserve in the inland foothills northeast of LA.

Evacuation warnings have already spread to the areas of Malibu and Calabasas.

Tankers full of water had been dousing the inferno from the skies all afternoon yesterday, but all aircraft were later grounded amid deteriorating wind conditions and visibility.

Less than 48 hours on from the initial spark, the wildfire is on track to be the most destructive blaze ever, having ripped through the glitzy celebrity mansions and causing an estimated $48 billion in damage.

According to UCLA experts, after years of severe drought, dozens of 'atmospheric rivers' – long, narrow bands of water vapor in the atmosphere – deluged California with record-breaking rain in the winter of 2022-23.

Following a second wet winter in southern California in 2023-24, last year brought a record-hot summer.

The combination of wet and hot conditions spurred the growth of more vegetation, and now with record-dry start to the 2025 rainy season, that greenery is 'tinder-dry.'

The Santa Ana winds then fanned the flames through this dry vegetation leading to the out-of-control fires.

Huge swathes of iconic California real estate from Malibu to Santa Monica, and from Pacific Palisades to Runyon Canyon, are ablaze - impacting millions caught off guard by the unprecedented spread and carnage.

As of Thursday morning, the largest inferno has consumed nearly 12,000 acres in the picturesque Pacific Palisades neighborhood that is home to many film, television and music stars.

How long until bombs show up? Hawaii had a whole separatist terrorist group pop up in under a year. If we’re 3x Hawaii already how long will that resentment boil? Will Cucklifornians be goycattle like usual?

People like them never like to admit they were wrong. So they'll blame it on Trump.


Have the fires reached where all the twitch streamers live yet?
I hope so.

That's just LA, the Central Valley is its own clusterfuck, as well as some others like the Hetch Hetchy reservoir and the destruction of the valley in Yosemite so faggots in SF can wash down their AIDS pills with clean water.

It's not just any gated community - Hidden Hills is where people like Madonna and the Kardashians live. Or at least they have lived there at points, celebrities seem to constantly buy and sell $50 million homes

The saars are fleeing. But they are about to be redeemed in the Tesla loo by battery fires if the wild fires don’t get them. The world is healing.
