For the first time since I launched L.A. in a Minute, I'm sad, emotional, and despondent about L.A. And I don't think it's just me. So far, 2025 is The Year of Sadness in L.A. From the fires to ICE raids to the political blame game to Hollywood's continued struggle, the atmosphere of gloom is pervading Los Angeles. Do you feel the same? How will we cope? Is there light at the end of the tunnel? Or am I just perceiving negativity in an otherwise normal time in the city. I need your feedback, so sound off.
