Here's the reality about the #LAFires this week: this isn't the first time ANY of these places have burned. Not even close. In 2018, we mapped CA fire history to look at fire frequency across SoCal. Santa Monica Mtns area burns more than anywhere else -- up to once per decade in a given spot. 🧵
Map showing the number of times a location has burned in SoCal and which kind of fire it was: one burning under Santa Ana winds, or one that was a summer, fuel-driven fire without Santa Ana winds. Malibu area had burned at least 8 times from 1900-2017, and has burned twice now since. Image from Kolden and Abatzoglou (2018): https://www.mdpi.com/2571-6255/1/2/19

Oh my god. This looks like a really awful idea. Disappointed in my dear UCLA. Have we all just given up?

For anyone who is dealing with loss, trying to heal or feeling lost, this #Wuxia story could be one to enjoy. "Snowy Night, Timeless Love" explores many kinds of love, it's beautifully shot and the martial arts choreography is excellent, not to mention great script and lovely soundtrack. 2/2
