Life in L.A. | The Air We Breathe 😷

Just discussing the terrible air quality in Los Angeles after the recent wildfires, why I will continue to mask up, and whether I'm going to stay out here.

Just discovered your channel man! Dope anamorphics 🎥

[@whatsonmymind3366]

Definitely wear a mask. My husband has chronic asthma years later from a fire in his neighborhood.

[@Geeson2u]

I’m so happy to know you are putting your health above all else. I saw a news reporter and as she was in the mist of reporting the devastation she began to cough and said she felt her throat was irritated and it’s probably best she wears a mask. 😏 Hope she took heed to that. Also, BE still. There’s nothing wrong with staying home during these times! Be Safe!❤

[@thehurley17]

I’m in Huntington Beach right now and my noes is irritated from the fires in LA.

[@raymonddavenport2147]

Thanks for the shout out bro! You are fortunate. At least you are getting paid to write something. 😜

[@markoushayes2233]

Take showers before bedtime as well.

[@devinhylton9853]

Love your channel, Jay... As an aspiring filmmaker/screenwriter myself, I can relate to a lot of what you have said and done. Think long and hard before leaving, given that you had spoken previously about having momentum... I know a lot of stuff is and has happened, but time isa great arbitrator. You do you though bro and the best of look with everything. Stay safe.

[@RyanB-b3k]

Keep staying Bruh in Los Angeles there's no better place. . You're already in the Promised Land. Stay 5 more years and you will change your opinion. O.G. been here 28 years.

[@ddfelder2]

Thank you for saying that… it won’t be this way forever even with the inevitable changes.

[@Cinderella23Queen]

If you happen to go out of the house, wear a mask

[@patriciac2384]

Wearing a mask says you care about ur health and there’s nothing wrong with that!! I wore a mask for a long time and even now I will still wear a mask because at the end of the day it’s ur life!! I ignore folks who stare at me or try to act like they can’t hear me! Your health is paramount!! Sending love n prayers to L.A. I have family there and I used to live there!

4:01 walking pad- that’s what it’s called❤

[@janeyjonesbones2]

Just think of everything one keeps in their homes... cleaners, bug sprays, detergents, paints, plastics, teflon,leather, nail polish, acetone, leads, metals, etcetera. I've been suffering terribly here in the valley. Sad too cuz my granddaughter and her dad and granddad lost their house in Palisades fire. Hoping for rain as well but fearful of mud slides for those whose homes did make it😢

[@derrickw5214]

Totally... many "parts" of LA on fire. Not to mention the many other recent fires in/around that were snuffed out. In any case, the smoke goes for miles and miles. Same as with the other major CA wildfires that have happened the last several years. The air stays rank for weeks.

[@DerekFullerWhoIsGovt]

🙏🏽

[@Cherise-rl8qj]

Yes sir

[@karenweston2714]

I was wondering before his death, if David Lynch was having a hard time dealing with breathing the air with his emphysema. I worry it contributed to his passing.

[@8AlisaInez]

💜It is…🌸

[@janeyjonesbones2]

Yes I was right by Hurst fire!

[@tracywilliamsliterature]

Sending best wishes from Wales ❤

[@LisaThames17]

I’m glad you did. I’ve been in the business since I was 6 years old. Do you want a buddy to chat with during this insane moment in time. It’s hard to talk to those that don’t really get it.. what kind of genre do you like writing for?

[@MM-qp4pd]

Did you read the book California Burning by Katherine Blunt?

[@GuacamoleyNacho]

Winner of the 2022 Golden Poppy Award for Non Fiction. Mentioned also the infrastructure neglect by a highly profit driven PG&E company not replacing a rusted hook from 1921 costing 56 cents, leading to the deadliest wildfire in California history.

[@joeriol6010]

Dude, you need to get out of California.
