People have been lighting off 1/4 sticks. I literally hit the floor when they did the first one.

Fireworks year round in this neighborhood. Occasionally I wonder if it's real gunfire. But yesterday @ 4:50am 6 rounds of the REAL DEAL fired just outside my window. I debated about reporting it because I didn't see or hear anything else. When I finally called it in an officer told me "must be fireworks because it's illegal to discharge a gun in city limits" Oh good. I don't have to worry about illegal drugs now either because those are illegal too.

I've heard of fireworks being used to cover for actual gunfire, so that this exact "shrug off" response happens

Now that you mention it, the crows do make quite a racket sometimes.

There's an outdoor stage somewhere around me but I haven't been able to find it yet they have a live set going on. Figure 2 miles or so from me but ive driven most of the back roads now and it's not advertised wherever it is. Heard a few 1/4 sticks go off. People definitely making their own fireworks out here.

More so than usual but gunfire is typical out here, all white people shooting in their yards mixed with fireworks. I joined in the celebration yesterday with a few guns as well.

The crickets are at war with the frogs. Sonic warfare is real.

More PR and DR here I believe. They’re actually not bad at all

A for-instance: my pops was helping me move in, and the Puerto Ricans in the townhouse next door were on their patio, loud-ish music, kids shooting hoops, talking kinda loud. After that they really scaled it back, hardly hear em ever. They also checked to see if I was ok after I took my broken storm door off, and propped on the deck railing, blew over and hit me square in the back. I yelled, “Fuck me!!” ha, they were actually truly concerned. Fine neighbors

I was moving a sofa upstairs a while back struggling with one other person and about 6 people walked past us not offering to help, all white. We were actually stuck and couldn't move it around the corner stairwell and these people just squeezed by us. Then two teens, a black kid and a Mexican kid came by. The first thing the black kid did was ask if he could help us. I like these instances where my instincts are shown to be wrong.

City officials in my town are fuck heads, they made it illegal (city ordinance so class C misdemeanor). I'm expecting a mostly quiet night.

I haven't decided yet if I want to set off anything.

People set off some pretty good sized fireworks over here, but it won't sound like a warzone until the 4th.

2020 fireworks were non-stop booming and banging for a good amount of time.

They never stopped around here. At least a few per week.
