Ugh, this is just so tragic
... I mean, I know we all expect some level of risk when living in areas prone to natural disasters, but 18 people losing their lives and thousands of homes being destroyed? That's just crazy! The government's response has been slow, and it's hard not to feel like they're not doing enough
.
I'm not saying the military taking control is a bad thing or anything, but sometimes I think these situations highlight how quickly emergency services can be overwhelmed. Like, we expect our firefighters to work in extreme heat, but 38C? That's just brutal
.
It's also concerning that some people are feeling abandoned by the government. We need to talk about this more and make sure they're getting the support they need
. It's a tough situation, but I'm sure we'll get through it... eventually
