There Is Hope...
It's nice to know that no matter how fucked the world is, America's west coast is connected to a beautiful and mysterious other land called California. In this part of the world, everything is perfect.

So, basically the Southern California wild fires sucked because of surfing infringement. Or something. Brah.
