And it’s such a bizarre non sequitur. Like, even on the racist premise that aiming for a more diverse Fire Dept automatically entails lowering standards, are we supposed to understand that WILDFIRES are out of control because… individual firefighters aren’t skilled enough? How?
i’m kind of amazed at how this is just the crudest, most obvious n****rbaiting you can imagine. “the people you don’t like, yeah, they are responsible for everything bad.” and it works!

I cannot stress this enough: if you have any physical contact with a bat—especially a bite—get treatment immediately. If it gets into your central nervous system, you will die horribly.

More consequences of Putin’s war in Ukraine - he’s overcommitting troops to try to make progress in Ukraine and leaving himself vulnerable elsewhere.
Losing in two theaters at once is pretty impressive.
