Neighbors say July 4 fireworks 'sound like a war zone'
Huntington Beach sounds like a war zone right now so that’s cool, appreciate it everyone, we could’ve all been playing video games but I guess we’re traumatizing dogs and veterans instead
Current hiding places: Cabinet. Behind a toilet.
Hey, it’s fun to burn up money in the form of loud noises because I think it’s cool! (I fucking hate fireworks)
People are setting off big enough fireworks in my neighborhood that my DEAF CAT jumped. (She was sleeping on her wall mounted shelf and a boom rattled the walls.)
This is the worst, most stupid holiday tradition ever. My dogs have been shaking for 6 hours straight 😡
Same in my little city up here on the central coast. It’s the pits. Pretty wild that people can afford to piss away all this money on illegal fireworks.
I know that it's not mortars and machine guns, but the really fun thing about mental illness is that being aware of the problem is not enough to fix it. Like maybe it's actual brain damage and not just lack of a positive attitude or can-do spirit.
There is no way to sufficiently express how much I HATE fireworks. My city sounds like a GDMF war zone. My cats are freaked out. I have no idea why we celebrate the birth of a nation with replicas of bombs that killed people.
Idk why we're so far behind times, where's the drone shows instead??? Get with the fucking times! like China and UAE do, jfc it's pathetic to scare nature and our beloved pets and those with PSTD ... smh
I feel like my house is under attack. It’s pretty ridiculous
Same. My dogs are not happy. The joy people get with fireworks that only bang. It starts a week before and will continue for another week after in my neighborhood. 😡
My kitty has been hiding out in a kitchen cabinet for much of the day. I opened a can of food and she came out for a little while.
Yeah, I’ve got the earbuds trying to drown out the neighbors. They’re apparently extremely patriotic.
The Mall fireworks may be delayed but elsewhere in DC the dog-terrifying, totally illegal, war-zone-volume fireworks and (mostly) firecrackers are right on time.
My poor dogs are shivering. They’re the dumbest creatures. The fireworks never hurt them yet They are always terrified. I feel for them.
I just spent an hour in the field with my animals because every man-child around hasn’t gotten over blowing shit up.
firework firework firecracker firecracker firewo- oh no that one was actually gunfire- firework firecracker siren
Our old rescue guy is terrified of thunderstorms and fireworks. He is also incredibly driven by food and bones (he licks the bones, he only has four teeth left). He is currently sleeping like a champ next to a nub of a bone: treats it like a teddy bear. He needs help picking it up, but sleeps by it.
Seattle sounds like what I kinda figure an active war zone sorta sounds like rn lmao
Y’all gotta save some for when It Happens
solidarity from the mission i cant hear myself think
Pretty much, but would have more snaps, hisses, dirt/gravel
It is no calmer down in Sumner
Sumner is insane rn too
dc looked insane from the pics i've seen can't even imagine the assault that was on the senses PDX been decently chill but ik that changes once the city sets theirs off lol
We dosed him and he's doing well which is great because it sounds like a damn war zone out there. #corgi #corgicrew
Aw buddy. Our cats are supremely unbothered because there's a lot of noise in the neighborhood to begin with.
It's midnight here. I thought it was over and coaxed my goldendoodle to go outside to pee. 10 seconds out the door and someone down the street launched a barage of very loud fireworks. 🤬 I probably won't be able to get her outside to potty tonight.
