DON'T LOOK AT THIS, ERIC TRUMP. Today's the day! The sun is going to LITERALLY DISAPPEAR FROM THE SKY, and this task will be completed bythe Illuminati Hillary Clinton Beyoncéscience. And Beyoncé probably somehow, but you never can be too sure. It may be too late for you to read this in time, as you are probably camped out on the side of the road somewhere along
Was there any insanity going on the the red states where the eclipse was viewed? I somewhat expected thousands of heavily armed fundies running around in a panic screaming about the end of the world and shooting anyone they considered demonic.
Hey, thanks. I'm about 5 minutes away from my almost total but really 73% partial eclipse. And yes, it's cloudy. But I perceive the cloudy light to be getting dimmer.
Wait. Why don't we want them to look? At least then there'd be a physical reason for them to stagger around blindly not knowing where they are and what they're doing.
I'm gonna go out on a limb here and suggest this; A)most people on that list won't even know the eclipse is going to happen B) they have no innate curiosity and won't look up because they can't be bothered cause, science C)they think it's some kind of liberal plot to make idiots of them and D) it's of Satan and they will be too busy preying with eyes closed begging god to make it go away. I won't be watching it because right now it's raining like a motherfucker and not likely to stop before it's over. Fortunately for me I have seen 2 solar eclipses and in the words of ray-gun, if you've seen one eclipse, you've seen them all.
I don't have to worry about staring at the sun during eclipse -- a perfect combination of morning fog and wildfire smoke has made for a perfect brownish-grey sky through which no stars are visible. I blame Oregon.

Way out (way out)
Where is Rush Limpballs?
Might be worth it as P seasonal Protective Equipment if you go to any rallies this fall.
AoT, K
Thanks! We try hard (most of us, anyway). 😘
We're getting really close to (99 percent) totality here in Eugene, and my cat is FREAKING.
Happy birthday! May it bring you joy.

If you drink before the eclipse, you can not look directly at everything double!

And the birds are very quiet. It doesn't seem to be affecting the garbage trucks, though.

Cool. Although not for your cat, sorry. Do you smell ozone? Some people say they smell ozone.
