I’m ok!
🕑 Added 2025-01-09 02:00:54 +0000 UTCHey y’all! I’ve gotten a few messages from folks checking to see if I’m ok due to the ongoing fires in LA right now. I really appreciate the concern, it’s really nice to know I’m being thought of right now ❤️ thankfully I and my family are 100% ok. We’re on the other side of LA and while the air quality has made going outside hard (and honestly given me low energy and a ton of headaches even inside), we’re doing ok and look to be safe for the time being. A few of our friends sadly had to evacuate and we’re looking into potentially temporarily housing a few of them if they want space. But since I had a few folks reach out, I just wanted to let you all know right up front that we’re all ok! Sending you love and stay safe!

yes, n95, surgical masks and cloth masks don't cut it.

I'm KICKING MYSELF IN THE ASS RIGHT NOW for FORGETTING THAT YOU LIVE THERE. Very sorry about your low energy/headaches, but I'm glad to know that YOU and YOUR FAMILY are OK!

Glad to hear you and Erin are OK despite the fires.

I was worried about you, Ms. Gender. Tilly mentioned there were a few friends who had to evacuate, and I worried it might have been you.

So glad to hear you're okay, and we hope it stays that way. We've got a lot of friends in the area and have been so worried all day long. We hope this ends quickly, these fires have already rampaged long enough :(

Glad you're safe! Maybe make a corsi-rosenthal box fan to help with the crap in the air? It's just 4 air filters taped together with a box fan on top

I second this. I’ve found N95 masks help when dealing with smoke. I’m also in California (but not the LA area) and we’ve had some very bad stretches with smoke from different fires over the years. I’m glad your family and you are okay, Jessie!
Adam Myers
Oh damn, very glad to hear that Jessie. You and Erin and your friends stay safe and take care of each other, ya hear?

Do you have an indoor air filter? For fire season, it's indispensable. Also, purpleair.com or other website to monitor AQ levels can be super helpful. This isn't a one-off hazard and lungs are worth the investment.

Might be time to go back to the N95 masks, assuming you ever put them away.
