Thank you. Can't believe the devastation these fires have caused. I don't have any close family in LA anymore, but used to visit my grandmother there every year growing up. I'm not sure if her old house is still standing but she wasn't far from the Eaton fire. So devastating to see how much loss there's been, I will definitely share this Google Doc.

Thanks for posting. I read the other day about how Altadena had a fascinating history. For various reasons, it was more welcoming to black homeownership. So a vibrant black community grew over generations. And that will have to be rebuilt.

So, the CDC removed the Covid guidelines. I’ve never had Covid. I’m afraid people will come into work not wearing a mask and be inconsiderate… ughhh so distracting and disgusting.

Not even sure if I should ask for accommodations to continue being able to wfh at least most days of the week to reduce risk. Idkkkk 😩This is so unprecedented. I always wear my mask at work.
