I walked outside today, and after coming back immediately bought 5 thermal jumpers
Try focusing on life in general tbh. At age 80/90 (hopefully!) You’ll likely be so done with life its easy to accept its end. At least, thats what it seems like talking to the older folk in my life.
Sometimes I just gotta say that to continue the conversation

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•When people die in wildfires, is it that the fire spread too fast for people to mobilise escape? Or more that people were delayed leaving?
3·10 days agoFor the box:
Birth certificate, passport, emotionally important and irreplacable things. Bringing some food / water ofc is important, given the risk of heat strokes on hot days.
In terms of where I flee, I pick some nearby towns that are basically kilometers of concrete and ashphalt, and not right next to a forest. Talk to some friends that are in safer areas before hand about potentially staying over.
Another option for me is to go the city, and just book a hotel.

12·10 days agoFrom Australia.
So there are many reasons people die in fire. It can happen if they’ve chosen to protect their home, and so stay, and unfortuntely just arent’t prepared for it.
Another common way, is leaving far too late, and getting cornered off, being unable to leave.
Sometimes the window for leaving can be very small, I recall last fire season that some people got a warning of the fire and it was already basically ontop of them, as the fire traveled very very fast.
My methods for dealing with fire season are:
Pack important things in a box. I.e ID. Idea is, if i read “leave now” i simply grab the box, and flee. Dont want to be fucking about finding shit as the sky turns red. Also, pet carriers. Dont forget your furry friends.
Know my exits. If the fire is coming from the west, what is the eastern exit?
In australia, theres a rating “catastrophic”. In that event, I just leave.
Also check any emergency service information constantly, maybe chuck on the radio (in australia the abc reports fire developments)
As you eluded to, check up on your neighbours. Disaster response is a community effort.
Fortuntely been lucky enough to only deal with the one proper fire scare, where we had to leave. We were very unprepared for it, coming from the city.
EDIT: final one I swear: in australia, there are shelters of last resort. Not sure if other countries like spain or italy have that, but figuring out at least an equivalent and knowing where they are is important aswell.

29·23 days agoSaying its for CSAM detection purposes is so devious. People absolutely see that and support it because naturally if your against this your supporting the proliferation of CSAM, which of course ridiculous given more then 1 minute of thought.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What would realistically happen if universal healthcare went into effect in the US and healthcare was no longer tied to jobs?
5·23 days agoThey aren’t socialist and the govs that oversaw the decline were conservatives.
But yeah, I agree it would be one hell of a logistical and political undertaking. I suspect they could try state by state. That might make it more politically managable at least.
