Horrifying. All, if you know young ppl who will use fireworks these next few weeks, please do what you can to either discourage them entirely or make sure they use them safely. Hundreds of young ppl will be in the ER with firework injuries this month. Many of these injuries will be life altering.

I worked at CPSC in law school for a year (part of why I always enjoyed your creative messaging so much) and you really do come away with an appreciation for the dangers of fireworks!

Everyone I know who thinks backyard fireworks are fine deserve to have their bits blown off, tbh, so 🤷🏻♀️

One of the parents at church when I was little (who named his daughter after my mom) only had three partially functional fingers on one hand, because he messed around with a firecracker in the library when he was a kid and it went badly. All the warning I ever needed.

My dad never let us shoot fireworks because he knew a kid who got a bottle rocket to the face, and while I resented it at the time, I'm now very glad he made that rule and that mom wouldn't let us ride in anyone's pickup bed because she'd seen a horrible accident involving a pickup bed full of kids.

Firework warning labels are something to behold. Do not light indoors or in a confined space. Do not light while holding. Do not aim at another person. Do not aim at any structures. Etc. Every warning is a story but unfortunately the people who need to hear them aren't reading warning labels
