I've been raking my yard. So I don't have...you know....a forest fire.

"Don't blame me, I voted for HER" is on a mug I ordered after the 2016 president election debacle.

So funny and so freaking sad at the same time. What a blithering idiot 45 is. I’d love to see his out of shape butt get out there and start raking California.

I read some time ago that forest land needs to have fires to burn off the topsoil so not to die. I have no idea if this is true or not but if it is, that might mean that fires need to be managed, not stopped.

You are 100% correct. Pine cones need fire to open up and spread their seeds. By continually stopping fires now causes a worse fire in the future.
Fire is a natural part of the western ecosystem. We’ve made things difficult here by over harvesting trees in some places, actively doing every thing we can to eliminate fires in other places and now we have sizable populations living in fire prone areas. Mature trees have evolved to be fire resistant from smaller fires. Now we have an abundance of fuels from drought the creates the intense fires we get now.
The President of Finland is raking his memory for the raking conversation with Prez Trump....anyway here is what one Finnish raker had to tweet:
