At first glance it almost seems like an ash-covered survivor is surveying the ruins of her home. Then you realize it’s a silly statue put up by some bourgeois dumbass who decided to buy an expensive house in an area where forest fires are common. Still, it’s an interesting photo.

The bottom half of the photo shows a lot of crap the humans brought up.<\/p>\n

So far this looks like a nicer traffic map than TANN’s<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" At first glance it almost seems like an ash-covered survivor is surveying the ruins of her home.
