Watch Your Feelings About 2020 Burn in a Literal Dumpster Fire
If you are looking for a little catharsis add to this dumpster fire. This website is a live stream of an actual dumpster fire burning up your messages of bad mojo. It is appealing that they aim to keep it PG-13, its rough enough out there.
Who has ever written a letter to someone without the intention of ever giving it to them? How many of you also burned that letter? Felt nice, I bet, purging all those negative emotions. I’ve done this a lot. Burned a lot of pictures, too. Watched the glossy paper bubble up and split open as it was reduced to ash. Fire can symbolize a lot of things—passion, rebirth, destruction, purification—and combined with the cathartic act of writing, it’s all the more satisfying. Hey.science is giving anyone the chance to vent about what a metaphorical dumpster fire 2020 has been by putting their rants, feelings, and whatever else into a literal dumpster fire.
