speaking to friends and colleagues in the UK, and they’ve had the same sort of issues but with…air conditioning

relatively few homes there have central air, but they’re more and more dealing with extreme summer heat

fuckin democrats
Have we fallen into a mesmerized state that makes us accept as inevitable that which is inferior or detrimental, as though having lost the will or the vision to demand that which is good?

Great job!
I know, right. Silly me. I should just ask the supremely competent L.A. Mayor, Karen Bass, who recently announced that we can find all the information we need "at URL." Brilliant.

Be honest. If Trump said something that dumb, you’d be all over it.

california is a $#!thole for sure. but i do not think that federal aid should come with any strings attached. nor do i believe that the republicans truly think it should either. they are just having some fun with those morons. jerking them around for grins and giggles.

when the fire is out. california will receive billions and billions of the great folks hard earned money. and waste the phucque out of it. they are california. the land of fruits and nuts.

In excess of 100,000,000,000 people have existed. I would imagine that a vast, vast, vast majority of them would be pissed to learn you can irrigate and sustain life with seawater!

They clearly are not blessed with the problem solving minds of our resident experts.

Their minds perfectly honed producers of solutions, unbridled by the nagging load of science…practicality….execution….or even common fucking sense.

There are firefighting planes built to dump seawater on fires.

https://www.pbs.org/newshour/science/pl ... ast-resort

"...when the winds are calm enough, skilled pilots flying planes aptly named Super Scoopers are skimming off 1,500 gallons of seawater at a time and dumping it with high precision on the fires..."

Nobody is saying you can’t use seawater to put out fires. But there are lots and lots and lots of reasons you shouldn’t except as a last resort.

California is a net provider State, compared to most of the Red States who are net takers. Give us back the money we send to Mississippi, Louisiana, Alabama, Florida and Texas and we’ll call it even

Go back and count the number of posts you’ve made on this thread alone, and then think about your response above.
