The National Guard have been called in to help exhausted firefighters battling six separate fires as the apocalyptic skies of Los Angeles continue to fill with smoke.

Two new catastrophic blazes broke out late on Wednesday night in the Hollywood Hills and Studio City - forcing first responders to redeploy their already-scarce resources to the hellish, burnt landscape.

The latest fires mean huge swathes of iconic southern California real estate from Malibu to Santa Monica, and from Pacific Palisades to Runyon Canyon, are ablaze, impacting millions who were caught off guard by the unprecedented spread and carnage.

The epicenter of woke Hollywood is now sitting down to a banquet of consequences.

I couldn’t be happier.

Two new catastrophic blazes broke out in the Hollywood Hills and Studio City; huge swaths of iconic California from Malibu to Santa Monica, from Pacific Palisades to Runyon Canyon, are ablaze.

Millions were caught off guard by the unprecedented
carnage as Mayor Bass sap happily celebrated in Africa.

People are lighting fires in otherwise non-burning urban areas of LA. Saw this happen first hand at 302 Pico in Santa Monica. Called it in & fire dept & police responded. Stay safe and call in any activity ASAP. We don’t need more flames out here. pic.twitter.com/AZ4GLr6N3q— Andrew D. Huberman, Ph.D. (@hubermanlab) January 9, 2025

I’m not worried. After all, Joe Biden had a kitchen fire and we made it through that alright.

TV channel just aired a charred human body in the fire rubble live on television without even realizing it. #SunsetFire #PalisadesFire pic.twitter.com/DQfclJvUPl— Lunar Surfer (@TheLunarSurfer) January 9, 2025

Studio City is home to lots of hard working middle class people. It’s not the woke epicenter of Hollywood.

“A lot of sick puppies on this forum.”

Why do you say that? All of this was predictable. The vast majority of LA County voters put these people in power. And the vast majority of them voted for the current “leaders” of the State of California. Some are pointing this fact out.

How does that make them “sick puppies”?

Because the “vast” majority isn’t everyone.

That is what makes gloating sick.

I wondered how fire started in Studio City. Not only is it nowhere near the fires, it’s north of the hills, and the Santa Ana winds are northerly.
