Hey, everyone.

I just wanted to check in with folks who are or might be directly or indirectly impacted by the fires in Los Angeles.

Whether you've been directly impacted, like having your home, school, or the homes of anyone in your immediate circles damaged or destroyed by the fire, or if you're states or even whole continents away, but are feeling impacted because of your empathy for those suffering, or how scary it can be to live during this timeline of great climate change, if you need or want any support, I just wanted to let y'all know we're here for you. <3
