    “it’s just the moon” is honestly a wild opinion to me.

    It’s just the massive orb that circles our world through all of known history, which bends the oceans and tectonic crusts with it’s movement, that inspired incredible amounts of art and culture, and is about to create a phenomenon which blots out the sun, in an incredible coincidence of size, position and timing, as the latest iteration of a pattern that may well have been the original inspiration for ways of thinking that went on to become the foundation for all of scientific thought. Nbd.

        I’m sorry you have to work during the eclipse. I understand that it’s moot whether or not you would enjoy it when it isn’t something that you have time for anyways, and that would make me frustrated by everyone talking about it too.

        I don’t really believe you that don’t care about any of that tho lol. Maybe not as much as your responsibilities, but no way you don’t care at all.
