Unrelated, does her eyes seem like they’re staring just a little in different directions?

It’s just thst she’s a little bit nervous that the best of all the years have gone by

Living in a powder keg and giving off sparks ⚡️
Mbourgon@lemmy.world 8 months ago
She’s probably just looking past the camera. It’s supposed to give better photographic head shots.

Emphasis on “Supposed to”

It’s all the turning around. It made her cross-eyed.

I hope the bugs are active that time of year where your viewing the eclipse, you’ll be in for an extra treat that folks in Cleveland may not hear.

Central Texas here, super excited to hear the bugs and frogs!!

I live north of St. Louis. I’m just hoping it won’t be cold.

Pink Floyd or GTFO
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 8 months ago
Their songs may be slightly too long for an eclipse.
Also, we won’t be seeing The Dark Side of the Moon.
Kolanaki@yiffit.net 8 months ago
The fuck you mean we won’t see the dark side of the moon? What’s blocking the sun during the eclipse?!
KingJalopy@lemm.ee 8 months ago
You absolutely will be seeing the dark side of the moon…
Galapagon@sh.itjust.works 8 months ago
I mean technically it will be the dark side of the moon. It’ll just be the same side we normally see. A super fast new moon if you will.
mkhopper@lemmy.world 8 months ago
Not “Eclipse”, the last track from Dark Side. Just over two minutes, which will a little longer than the amount of time my area will have totality.
akilou@sh.itjust.works 8 months ago
Be carful! There’s an abbreviated version and an extended version!
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 8 months ago
Either way, Bonnie Tyler is the hero we need right now.

Unrelated, but they used this song to tell us drugs were bad in high school. Had a whole performative dance thing to it where a student smoked weed for the first time and either OD’d or got depressed and unalived themselves because that’s how it works, of course.
Anyway, I was able to be in totality for the 2017 eclipse and I’m hoping to get there again this time. It’s an amazing experience - highly recommend!
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 8 months ago
I also got totality in 2017, which was awesome, but my daughter was still to young to really appreciate it, so I’m looking forward to this one more.
PrincessLeiasCat@sh.itjust.works 8 months ago
Don’t forget to bring Saltines to see the shadow through the holes in the cracker!
Kolanaki@yiffit.net 8 months ago
Every time the song says “heart,” though, you gotta shout “sun” over it.

I suggest also Total Eclipse by Klaus Nomi Or Eclipse by Apoptygma Berzerk. Runtimes dont match but both are about eclipses and adecuate for the current state of owr world.
Klaus nomi for the doomers and apoptygma for the positives.
JimVanDeventer@lemmy.world 8 months ago
The duration of totality differs depending how near or far you are from the centre of its path. I mean, I’m gonna blast my karaoke version for all to hear anyway.

Dagamant@lemmy.world 8 months ago
The duration is different depending on where you view it. I will be in an area where totality will last 4 minutes and 20 seconds so I have a different plan of action.
