@elonmusk Sorry to burst your bubble but there aren't enough men, women, or equipment to deploy enough water to stop wind driven fires like this.
Why don't you take some of that "go to mars" money and actually help rather than Monday morning quarterbacking during a live fire?
this is also sad because why i asked my uber driver last night if the drivers benefit from the surge rates and he said no….. like he only got $11 total for my ride that i paid $70 for, he assumed my fare was $30-40 bc of that amount and was so gagged when i told him
it's fundamentally violent to starve so many people in this world by hoarding so much wealth, exploiting so much labor, stealing from frankly all of us

The Daniel Penny “not guilty” verdict is a capstone to a saga of tragedy in which the City could and should have intervened at countless points over the lifetime of Jordan Neely. He deserved a better life. He deserved to not be killed on the floor of a subway car. New York bears the responsibility to care for our most vulnerable neighbors and ensure this never happens again.
NEW FEATURE: The Celtics might just be the most family-friendly organization in sports.
Bringing your kid around is encouraged, and it's a culture that starts at the top.

lowering drug prices, improving nutritional standards, and reducing pesticide use are causes that could genuinely improve public health. Colorado’s experience with prescription drug importation and pesticide regulation shows that we need leadership willing to stand up to big corporations, and it’s easy to see why RFK Jr.’s bold talk on these issues resonates.
But there are significant concerns about his track record. Beyond his vaccine stance, RFK Jr. has also promoted scientifically unsupported claims about HIV/AIDS, suggesting that HIV doesn’t cause AIDS—a view that has been widely debunked and has caused harm in communities affected by the disease. He’s also pushed conspiracy theories about 5G and Wi-Fi, alleging health risks that extensive research hasn’t supported. These positions reflect a pattern of promoting claims that can erode public trust in critical areas of health, even when the science is clear.
The risk is that, with a track record like this, he could bring these same tendencies to HHS, diverting focus from evidence-based health initiatives. I fully agree that we need reform in areas like drug pricing, nutrition, and agriculture policy—but we need a leader who’ll pursue these reforms with rigorous science and public health as the top priority, rather than personal beliefs or fringe theories. I am disappointed to see this level of support from you. We’re losing our institutions to people who professionally degrade trust in them and that causes real harm. That’s this guys whole bag. Be very careful here.
