Any other urban rats get an Evacuation Warning around 4:12PM Pacific Time?
I got mine, despite having about 20 miles of dense concrete urban jungle between me and the nearest fire. Turns out, the idiots in charge sent an Evacuation Warning to every man, woman, and child in the entire county (an area larger than the nation of Jamaica), scaring people and making a mess of things.

So naturally, I went to the website linked to the warning only to find the website down. When it came back up again after 15 minutes, it wouldn't show me where the fires were because it thought that I lived somewhere in the middle of the Pacific Ocean (yes, I gave it the necessary permissions to detect my true location). There are old angelfire sites from the 1990s that still function better.
This is third world stuff. Any you know what? Wait until those folks burned out of their beachfront homes try to apply for permits to rebuild. The Coastal Commission is gonna tell them to get stuffed. I've long argued that California, once a proudly red state, would eventually turn red again. People laugh at me for this, but the 2024 elections showed half the state turning red, and nothing makes a man feel red more than having a bunch of lesbians on the Coastal Commission tell him that he is SOL in rebuilding his beachfront home. This fire may be just enough to at least turn the city red again. What's left of the city, I mean.
