As a California Firefighter I will let my Chief know that we should get some shotcrete guns instead of water to cover those 5,000 sqft mansions

I can see it now. Our stations now will have fleets of cement mixers full of wet clay and those concrete boom pump trucks instead of engines! Car on fire, cover it in mud. High rise fire? Mud. Forest fire? Lots more mud for all the trees! 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣

Sissy SpaceX is an idiot

Yeah, dude. It’s such a perfect idea because there is dirt everywhere. Like literally we’re standing on it right now. Maybe if we spit on it it’ll make it better mixture for the T111 siding protection.
