#bottlerockets
Live your life like hundreds of thousands of people won’t hold street parties and shoot off bottlerockets when you die
Jean-Marie Le Pen, the French far right leader, died today.

If you wonder how many French people feel about that, these are the scenes of celebration on the streets of Paris this evening.

One sign reads “The dirty racist is dead”.

once took down a neighborhood bully with a hockey stick when he was shooting bottlerockets at my friends and me
as a lesbian who for work has become quite proficient with a mop and a broom I’ve always considered training with a polearm/staff/pike/etc would be an easy shift of skills
The world if polearm varietals were the preferred weapon of socially inept lesbians

Berdelly setting off bottlerockets indoors, but in the context of a Kerbal Space Program attempt with too many boosters.

Iron dome is a dumb nonsequitur in this discussion because yeah sure fine whatever, stopping Hamas bottlerockets from hitting random Israelis is probably a net good thing even if it enables bad choices by the Israeli govt

That isn't the core issue here re: US protection and Israeli policy

A #holga photograph from several years ago. I make a yearly pilgrimage to this place every year to purchase fireworks, including some that are "banned" in my city. Sorry, I gotta have me some #bottlerockets. It seems appropriate to share now. Make America Bang Again #shotonfilm #filmshooter

So much disingenuous framing is made possible by the insistence on calling Hamas’ munitions “Rockets” to make it seem like both sides have equal capabilities.

They’re little more than hand grenades on bottlerockets and under no circumstances could a misfired one destroy an entire hospital.
“Based on what I’ve seen, it appears as though (the hospital strike) was done by the other team, not you,” Biden said, speaking alongside Netanyahu, without providing any further details

Hamas has claimed an Israeli airstrike was responsible for the tragedy, but Israeli officials denied the allegations, saying Palestinian militants were to blame.

We all expected the fireworks show, we didn't expect the pyrotech dude to show up three days early, naked, high on kratom, with live bottlerockets tied to his nipples

Dropping this song here because

1. The song is fantastic and one that lives rent free in my head

2. The Bottlerockets are a criminally underrated band

3. Mark Ortmann is a criminally underrated drummer

Neighbors decided to get an early start with bottlerockets, so I can confirm this helps - dog settled and is just looking confused my way every few minutes:

Bumpy?
That's right up there with "RUD"...
"rapid unscheduled disassembly", as far as euphemisms go.
In the meantime, we can't even shoot off bottlerockets here in Minnesota.

But, we can grow weed.
I'll keep the weed and just shoot off sparklers.
We're cool.
