    The Fireworks were more subdued this year where I live.

    I don’t know if it was because people are ashamed of what we’ve become or that the tarrifs have put people in a pinch. Or both.

        I bought $200 worth of fireworks 20-ish years ago and have never used them. its like 50 mortars and a fuckton of firecrackers.

        honestly, I never used them because I lost faith in my country back then. anything I feel for my country now resembles a dried up desiccated corpse.
