quite interesting how the valencian government cut the emergency services and last october there were unprecedently catastrophic floodings there, and how the city of los angeles cut the funding for the los angeles fire department and now there is a catastrophic fire going on. almost as if there was a pattern going on here...

#california #valencia #obviously climate change played a big part in this as well #but the damage wouldn't have been so huge - and by damage i mean human damage - if there were better public services available #to the public. also prevention !!!!! in valència the prevention systems failed. no idea what is the situation in la but prevention is key #also in the case of la. it doesn't help that for some fucking reason usamericans insist of building out of wood and not brick #anyways. i hope any people who reads this from la is safe. i am sorry for y'all and only y'all #i am also very angry for the getty mansion getting burnt #i know this wouldn't have happened if all those art pieces were publicly owned and managed #we have protocols in public museums that's kinda what i'm studying #private museums or art galleries or cultural institutions are incompatible with its own supposed function
