Mike Luckovich for August 31, 2021

The joke around here (w/ both) is that if we’re LUCKY, the floods will put out the fires.

PS: The reason it’s a joke is because it doesn’t actually happen.

Well I’m not joking, my Fire The Caldor has cut two Highways cutting Tahoe off from the Valley, 22,000 Souls had a mandatory evacuation order out of the Tahoe Basin today. The 1st time in history, 186,000 Ac 15% contained. Real chance Lake Tahoe area will burn in the next few days, the Caldor has been burning for 14 days and counting. Things Suck in Kalifornia Big Time from Newsom to the Fires we are burning.

^ Good thing there’s no such thing as the climate crisis.

The good thing about northern tier living is you don’t have to leave your home when a blizzard is tracking toward you.

“No”, says one driver, “We’re evacuating because the Taliban just took over D.C.”!!

“It is because of the aliens dear!” Scene from ‘The War Of The Worlds.’

Yes.

Cue James Taylor’s Fire and Rain.

Just call the latest devastation another natural disaster aggravated by climate change and you’ve got it covered.

No matter, just get used to it.

Climate change causes both disasgters

Whoever is running the Sim City simulation has gotten bored and they are clicking on all the disasters. Waiting on that monster attack….

How are all those electric vehicles holding out? Saw a lot of folk stocking up with jerry cans of gas.. Nary a one picking up a spare battery.

Can’t wait till the whole response team is driving EV

The MBS knows full well that decisions to evacuate from natural disasters are made at a state level.

Or perhaps he’s disingenuous enough to be suggesting that Biden is responsible for natural disasters? That wouldn’t be a big surprise, would it?!

Welcome to the new reality that right wingers already deny.

Where are they?

I was thinking we see Trump on a billboard asking “Do You Miss Me Yet ?”

This would apply to California and other parts of the West, not to the Southeast.

Let’s just settle on “impending doom”.

Gonna have to change the expression: Out of the forest fire, into the flooding

Entertainers and politicians think their poop smells like chocolate chip cookies. Keep those masks on.

Locusts and flies.

At least they are learning where they really Need High Speed Passenger Rail to get them out of town.
