I have to watch my poor kittens flinch every time a firework goes off. Curtains closed to minimize noise and all. Fuck fireworks. No fucking point at all, just noise and pollution.

Fea the Wanderer (feacrow@mastodon.social)'s status on Wednesday, 01-Jan-2025 04:42:35 JST Fea the Wanderer @Gargron thank you, I totally agree,
There is a supermarket chain in a German city, the owner of it has decided to not have fireworks sold in his stores, because his pets suffer from this each year... that guy gets much hate apparently -

Vincent Friedrich (vincefried@mastodon.social)'s status on Wednesday, 01-Jan-2025 05:03:08 JST Vincent Friedrich @Gargron 💯 We recently moved to a new place. Before, we were quite lucky with noise. At the new place people started fireworks a day before already like it would be NYE all night. My one cat didn’t come out of its hiding spot all day 😒

You can educate yourself on the history of fireworks here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fireworks#History
Just as we tolerate the existence of Mastodon in the fediverse, you can tolerate others' enjoyment of pyrotechnics. I'm sure your cats will be perfectly fine hun 💅. -
Chancerubbage (chancerubbage@mastodon.social)'s status on Wednesday, 01-Jan-2025 05:40:40 JST Chancerubbage I think fireworks with audible explosive reports are stupid (sometimes unavoidable) but there are plenty of great fireworks that are relatively silent eye candy.

Amelia Rochko (ameboid@mastodon.social)'s status on Wednesday, 01-Jan-2025 07:39:40 JST Amelia Rochko @Gargron Not just the pets, lots of veterans and people with PTSD are having a hard time right now. That selfish attitude of "I don't really care about other people, or other living beings, as long as I'm having a good time, only my needs and wants are important" is the reason why the world is so fucked up.
