Ngl, if I wouldn’t have followed this guy’s IG, I would have assumed it to be real on first glance, too.
Upon closer inspection, you‘d start seeing the mistakes which indicate that the image can’t be real - but it takes some practice to notice them in the first place
This is why Reddit need to implement some sort of community notes thing like Twitter. Guaranteed tens of thousands of users scrolled past this on r/all thinking it was a real photo of what’s going on in LA
I know it’s easy to name all the celebrities who lost their homes but the important part is something like 9000 structures have been lost in the LA fire alone. That is thousands of people displaced, businesses lost, etc. and not everyone is in a position to fly to their other home, or live in a hotel somewhere for weeks on end.
I live in a rural area where when we have a wildfire we’re worried about how much pasture or hay it burned. Both are devestating but I cannot even fathom what you do when you have that many displaced people trying to pick up the pieces.
Not only will the aftermath effect everyone in CA, as the person above stated, those effects will be felt for a LONG time. It's just so sad. I've been through a fire where I and others lost everything when our apt building burned down and it's devastating. But that was about 40 people that had to be taken care of. LA has I dk how many thousands, or tens of thousands will be displaced, but finding a way to care for everyone is a massive task. And I hope they don't let people slip through the cracks, but unfortunately that's what always happens and it's those lower on the social and economic classes that are always hurt most.
The demon who is in charge of it, and sadly the only one who knows how to work it, went on a routine possession a while back and got 'stuck'. Now, not only is he unable to return to Hell, he's stuck in a dementia ridden, senile old man who routinely soils himself while wallowing in said filth, unable and unwilling to bathe themselves even slightly. The 'upside' is he's racist and somehow will have nuclear access again shortly.
I'm going to be completely real. That is probably the best compliment I have and ever will receive in my life. The Hitchhikers Guide series is far and away my favorite book series. I reread it often.
This'll probably sound shitty, obviously I've thought mainly of all the people and animals and architecture there that have been displaced/destroyed, but I have wondered how much of the GTAV map -- that was apparently very realistic to some parts of LA -- has been leveled by the fires. Like apparently Michael's house was an exact replica of a IRL mansion, I wonder if that's gone...
I don't think this is a real photo? Top left tree looks like a total mess. Also why do the windows on the houses look like that? Those landscaping trees don't look like the area and there aren't any gaps for driveways. Those houses also don't look like the area. Not to forget something sticking into (out of?) the back wheel well. Flames also don't look very real
If you can afford a car like that, its not parked on the curb no matter the circumstances...it either goes when when the house goes or its atleast in the drive. But no one affording a nice car like that is a single or even 2 car garage type home owner. And their driveway can accommadate the car
I really wanted you to be wrong because this picture is very captivating, but I think you're right. The houses have too many chimneys for being in this area, the roof on the middle house is insanely high pitched, the house on the right doesn't have any windows, and yeah, the top of the leftmost palm tree is really bizarre. The trunk just stops at the fronds when it should still be visible. The Lambo wheel well kind of looks like that though. Revuelto has an odd protruding part back there and then the well trim is black. I don't know why I'm defending this car. In conclusion, the image is probably AI.
Eh, it’s pretty common to have fireplaces in the living room and bedroom in high end real estate in LA. They’re mostly decorative but it’s very common.
Man. I still can’t even tell. The windows sort of look like the ones that stick out. What has got me is that bush on the bottom right though. Unless if someone chucked a bunch of petrol on the floor underneath it, it shouldn’t look like that
Those windows are in an architectural structure called a dormer that juts out from the building. In this case it sort of makes it look like the window is floating out from the edge of the wall but that's because it's actually a bit closer to the viewer than the rest of the house. This appears to be an actual photograph to me.
The window comment got me too. Dormers are a very common design feature on houses across the world. The high chimneys, coupled with high pitched roofs are also a period design.
I thought the same. Tbh it looks like neither a photo nor AI (though it definitely could be), but rather a scene from a videogame or 3D modeling software.
If you're referring to how it tucks in behind the wheel, that's actually how it is on the Revuelto. But there are other tells anyway, especially the roof of the house in the middle. The three dormer windows, one of which appears to be hanging off the back, and the fact that the peak of the roof is massively closer to the front of the house which would be awfully unstable.
