Well All My Gear Maybe Destroyed...

I lost everything in a flood a number of years ago so I completely empathize with you.

People like to say it's just things, and at least you're safe. While the most important thing is that you and your family are safe, no one understands the true gravity of things unless they've been in that situation. You're standing in front of a pile of rubble and it hits you. It's not just things, it's a representation of everything you've worked for your entire life just gone. It's a devastating feeling.

I'm glad you're safe and I truly hope all turns out to be best case scenario for you.
If not, it will be a tough time. Just try to keep in mind the tough time will be temporary and you'll be able to make it back to where you were.

Well I’ve been in that situation 2 months ago. And it seriously readjusted my priorities and especially a stern reminder of the difference between need and want.

Many are just sharing facts. Others are offering free gear or gear to borrow to the guy. If that’s all you see then logout and don’t fucking come back.

What is the implication of sharing such "facts"
 
While I noticed people complaining about ‘politics in the thread’, is it really politics or is it just incompetence?

So while insurance companies are removing policies and screwing people who are just trying to keep their homes, what the hell happens with the government employees who fucked everybody while they were getting paid way more than the normal people are?

When is it ‘appropriate’ to talk about these clowns?

Nobody gets held accountable, especially when it’s bad taste to discuss it 🤦

I live in the heart of Pacific Palisades, CA and half the town is on fire as I write this. Most of all my favorite guitars were left under an emergency evacuation (I couldn't get to my home before the fire department shut down the area). I suspect I won't know if my house burned down until tomorrow. I'm safe in a hotel in the South Bay, grateful to be alive...Sometimes you just have to live in acceptance I guess.

I saw videos online and the scene looks horrifying. I can't imagine living through that. Happy you're okay. Sorry you have to think about that and wait and see what happens.

Sick people, consistent with this forum, choose to turn it in to a political issue. Disgusting, pathetic and moronic. Just makes you look small and stupid.

sick people, consistent with this forum, choose to ignore reality and hold those responsible accountable. Disgusting, cowardly, and feckless. Just makes you look like a whining, sniveling, complacent idiot.

maybe if you held those responsible accountable this wouldn't happen as frequently or as extensive?

Instead… they will again vote for the same trash… get the same trash result… feign indignation and pearl clutching.

I’m sure there is some social injustice he’d be better off fighting.

When you cut millions from a large city fire budget… give the money to homeless people… and fail to properly manage the water supply… this is the result.

Facts.

They might not have to vote for these people with the amount of fraud present. Same thing in the shit hole of the state that I’m in.

Rather than fires, we get solar panels that the wicked three get kick backs on. There you go, I got ‘political’.
