There's nothing funny about arson.

Weird how the Texags filter blocks out words in a Tweet handle.

Interesting article from this past March. Reading the article now and taking into account all the events that have occurred since then seems to validate the need to aggressively manage the forest and keep the fuel levels low. They did not properly manage their risk and had no plan once the controlled burns were suspended. Disappointing this fact is not owned by who made this decision and another crisis is politicized.

Excerpts.

The U.S. Forest Service announced last week that it was suspending all new controlled burns on land it manages around the country in an effort to further reduce air pollution and protect fire personnel amid the spreading coronavirus. Included in this decision are the 20 million acres the agency oversees in California.

But following one of the driest Februaries on record in parts of the Golden State, the move highlights the difficulty in decision-making that pits wildfire preparation and adapting to the virus against each other.

There is nothing as efficient as prescribed burns," said Marko Princevac, a professor of mechanical engineering who researches wildfires at the University of California, Riverside.

"National Forests contain 6 million of the total 9 million acres of highly volatile brushland in California found mainly in the foothill country where urban expansion is increasing and many developments lack adequate protection against wildfire," according to the Forest Service's website.

With burns on Forest Service land temporarily on pause, other mitigation measures will need to be emphasized, but details remain scarce on the agency's plans.

Where is the tape of Trump saying Corona virus is a hoax? That would sort of complete the funny.

It's easy to tell when Vader posts a meme. They are the posts that never turn blue

Most don't even have a number by the star.

So, is that "haHA" at the end the equivalent of a laugh track.

yep. I like scanning this thread and just looking at memes/twitter posts, but know others comment quite a bit also. What's great about this thread is even non paying customers can scan and ignore terrible posters simply by looking at blued posts with images and ignoring the others (those are Vader and OAM moron posts)

For those of us who have these libs on ignore, it's kind of annoying when you guys quote them anyway. Just ignore them. Stop giving them the attention they so desperately want.

What's the point of a politics board if you don't want the full spectrum of opinions in here?

Apparently, it appears that the laughing isn't even out loud let alone on the floor.

It seems to me that laugh tracks are generally used because either the jokes aren't funny or there is no audience. I believe both apply here.
