PTSD sucks. I have my ear plugs in, trying to ride out the explosions outside. Anyone else in a similar situation, maybe neurodivergent?

My cats mainly, but I also fucking hate fireworks for holidays unless they're a large community thing.

Random assholes in their backyard really ruin the holidays for me. Also, absolutely cannot abide fireworks for sporting events. It's such a dumb spectacle that seems to have picked up more since the 2010s or so.
