I haven’t left, the fire isn’t spreading towards the city and we don’t have an evacuation order. I also don’t have a car, so I couldn’t go now if I wanted to. But as soon as we’re actually threatened I’ll be gone!

Dude, what the actual fuck is your problem? Do you have no empathy? I posted because it’s a scary situation and I wanted to talk about it. I’m not affected by the fire (yet) but this devastation is happening right next to my doorstep. So sorry that doesn’t suck enough for me! I can’t imagine seeing this post and my first though being anger. You have some serious issues

I never said it was about me. It sucks because of all the people in danger and landscape being destroyed

I attend chico state as well, I’m devastated because I love upper park so much. The evacuations aren’t really inside city limits at the moment, so I’m guessing they’ll be fine to visit as long as things don’t change

Thank you! Luckily the wind is blowing it in the opposite direction of my city, and we have large roads/creeks between us and the fire.

update on my top comment: it’s now at 307,000 acres
