Should include the U.S. in there.

I'm American and mine certainly has gone down. I doubt I'm alone.

It was a nice place in the right light but now, it’s hard to be very proud. All I feel is shame.

That light was burnt out and up someones ass by the time I was born. I never once seen us not intentionally fuck everything up as much as humanly possible.

The stuff my parents and grandparents were proud of is dead and desiccated and we are trapped in the meat husk.

What did you like about it before?

[–] expatriado@lemmy.world 10 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

wonder if fireworks companies report season sales numbers

My completely subjective and not at all data driven experience of how many I feel I heard this year as opposed to previous years is at least the same. Possibly more. Though I live in a fairly conservative area.

Same in the Bay Area in California, too. Maybe people are in denial, maybe they just like an excuse to shoot off fireworks, maybe both.
