I used to think fireworks were fun, but after getting a dog that is terrified of them, you start noticing all the little things.

People shoot then off randomly throughout the year. They leave behind garbage waste. Animals and even some humans seem to get PTSD from them.

I'm in favor of very limited fireworks in specific areas.

Sadly some of the fastest reporting is still happening on twitter. BNO News is well regarded in terms of reporting on viral outbreaks (ever since COVID), so I'd still trust their reporting.

It's playing a tabletop RPG on your PC... of course it will be turn based. if you haven't played live DnD before, you should give it a try!
