    Sadly you are right.

    How do I know I'm not wearing VR goggles as we speak?

    Life is no longer trustworthy!

      Just one of many videos, thought this one gave a pretty close look at what it looks like driving around. Forget the fact that he starts out by saying he's speechless and then narrates it for 4 minutes. Good quality video, though. Loved his use of "that tesla is finito", LOL

        My IG is just lit up today, reel after reel, people posting close up videos of fires destroying their homes and neighbours. Just an observation, but we have wildfire season here too. Last year, a good portion of a major tourist town burnt. People got out asap stat even with 2 roads available. There was little IG posting of people’s own homes burning. People just didn’t know what happened to their homes until after the fire. RCMP military etc. shut the whole place down. Is the military in LA doing the same? Are these areas so populated people can’t get out?

          Not enough evidence to prosecute or arrest at Woodland Hills.

          The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                I read one story about this where the cop said he was pretty sure the "suspected burglars" didn't know it was Kamala's house.

                I also read they were caught just walking by the house, not in it.
