Please make them stop. Why are they still legal? My neighbor has been using a mower, weed eater, and leaf blower for 5.5 hours. Nobody else ever notices the noise but my auditory sensitivities make me want to claw my skin off.

The HoA at the housing area I live at has landscapers come through every Tuesday, and their gas mowers, weed whackers, and leaf blowers are going nonstop from 9am to 6pm. I cannot fucking stand how much noise it makes. Even with headphones and in my room, it overpowers everything. The only way I can get a reprieve is to just take my laptop and go to the nearest library all day

While you're listening to music or whatever on your headphones, play a youtube video of brown noise in the background too. That should help drown it out.
