I'll tell you a bigger tragedy in America.
Over 30,000 homeless veterans in the US per 2024 statistics
Over 6,000 veteran suicides from 2020 to 2024.
No I'm not really broken up at all about some ugly houses and some art that burned up because people live in an are that is prone to fires every year and the state is mismanaged on purpose.

No. That would be the destruction of native mound complexes that rivaled the pyramids but early American settlers. Some of them were legit small cities that got flattened out for farm land.

Berlin
Then don't put a fanatical megalomaniac in power with the ability and the people's blessing to start a World War and who decided it was all the Jews fault in the first place and killed them by the millions just for shits and giggles.
The Germans perpetrated atrocities on every country they invaded and conquered from the onset until the end of WWII.
The classic case of FAFO.

There's probably not a greater concentration of architecturally significant homes and significant pieces of original artwork than in these neighbourhoods, mate.
As with most of my posts that don't initially receive good reception on TD, this will likely be another thought of mine that is eventually proven to be correct.
first off you are still a douche
but yea this is up there as far as loss of art and architecture for sure. Sucks big time
what i cant stand though is all the people pissed off at the insurance companies, mainly the one i see catching hell is state farm as they are the biggest for pulling out the state last summer after the state said....can never raise rates no matter the risk.
i see people saying they shouldnt be allowed to do that, etc etc its like people want companies to bankrupt themselves. its dumb af.

It is so sad, mates...
Warhols and Harings lost in L.A. Fires

When he returned a few days later he found that his home had been destroyed, and with it his considerable art collection. Rivlin said he had lost more than two dozen Warhols — he owns a gallery in West Hollywood that specializes in Warhol — along with works by Keith Haring, Damien Hirst, John Baldessari and Kenny Scharf.
“It’s dust at this point,” Rivlin said on Monday as he returned to the site of his former home, which was built about five years ago, specially designed with his art collection in mind.

Jet fuel melting the steel beams is probably a bigger one.

If they can get the architectural renderings (plans), build it back the same.

How will we ever go on! (Sobs)
Society is back to the Stone Age!
If Andy Warhol had never existed, my life wouldn’t have been changed (specifically lessened) one whit.

Pretty sure the French Quarter burning twice was a more historical loss.

What is happening in Los Angeles is a millionfold worse than that.
