planet x reveal is self yet?

That's next month

 

[Poppy]

there was some cool light effects on the asphalt i viewed the eclipse on. right before and right after it went totally dark, the light sort of swam around or rippled on the ground a little bit

 

[perfectchaos007]

Yep feel the temp dropping in MN

Guys I just had an idea on how to end global warming

 

[Fenderputty]

Never realized how creepy everything looks during an eclipse. Cool shit.

Yeah it really puts things into perspective regarding how ancient people must have viewed such an event.

 

[wiibomb]

Are you fucking serious? That's what I thought... but hot damn I need to play that...

there are much more incredible sights like that (even some more.... eclipses) I totally recommend it...

 

[Mortemis]

Showed up to a viewing and they were out of glasses. Thankfully a nice lady shared a pair with my group. People are so nice.

It's weird, it got colder and darker, but the sky is still blue. Kinda creepy but I'm loving it. Definitely gonna have to see a total eclipse some day.

 

[Goodacre0081]

I have a welding helmet with a shade lvl of 13. Is that enough to watch the eclipse

i seen people mention online that 14 was what you needed but also 12. if i were yo i would go for it but to stare too long.

 

[Murugo]

I think the shadows are conspiring.

 

[Zaraki_Kenpachi]

Will this be the return of the hawk?

We must build a big ass mobile object to block the light of the sun? HA That's it!

 

[ZOONAMI]

Mr Burns already did

 

[manfestival]

No. It's just from looking at the sun period.

The issue with an eclipse is it's an abnormal event that gets more people looking at the sun.

thats fair, that aligns with other things that I am reading online. the biggest concern is that people are going to star when they normally wouldnt stare and there are no pain receptors telling people to stop

 

[Emwitus]

I'll just leave this here

[Obliterator]

Sun is about half way covered now here. Pretty crazy looking

 

[GAFmeansLIFE]

Looked at the sun wothout glasses bad idea

 

[Burt]

I hope there are some intrepid cosplayers out there who took advantage of this

Also, someone needs to check the deepest depths of the White House to make sure HR McMaster isn't strapped naked across a sacrificial altar.

[Fenderputty]

I'm so pissed I didn't prepare to see this in totality. Next time ...

 

[Zelenogorsk]

I live directly in the line of totality and it's cloudy out lol.

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

It passed totality in Boise. It looked really cool.

 

[Hunter S.]

Light is looking weird in Colorado. Feels like a trip.

 

[Paznos]

There's a hawk in my backyard.

 

[Fenderputty]

Someone has to have some video of this thing in HD

 

[Megatron]

I'm so pissed I didn't prepare to see this in totality. Next time ...

Yeah, see you in forty years!

 

[half a moon]

Is it going to get dark outside if 99.6% gets covered? or it is only total?

 

[cress2000]

Amazing how bright it still seems at 90% totality. I like the dimmer look though.

 

[Jencks]

There's a hawk in my backyard.

Run.

 

[Sky Chief]

Wowit'sfuckingnothing.gif

 

[Borgnine]

A staggering amount of people at my office don't understand what is happening. Like basic science stuff. I'm blowing minds with a fucking piece of paper and a pinhole.

 

[Fenderputty]

Yeah, see you in forty years!

2024???

 

[Einchy]

Liquid is falling from the sky! THE TRUE POWER OF THE ECLIPSE

SHOW YOURSELF COWARD

 

[CraigerGamer]

The one day in Vegas it's cloudy. Seriously?

I feel bad for you. Either you need a raise for find a more deserving place of employment.

 

[Not]

God I feel so fucking stupid.

 

[Hidden One]

Oh wow it really did get dark on that twitch stream!

 

[TheCochese]

Not even 50% yet in TN.

 

[Bornstellar]

At totality. Looking directly with no issue. Holy shot.

 

[Conkerkid11]

At totality. Looking directly with no issue. Holy shot.

lol

 

[ag-my001]

Currently raining NW of Charleston. Missed first contact. There's a big patch of blue to the west, so I'm still hopeful totality won't be a bust.

 

[Weevilone]

Retina damage is cumulative so glancing away and back won't "reset" it

I'm confident if this was burn-in on a TV, GAF would be way more freaked out.

 

[Z3M0G]

I don't know why this is what it took to finally make me want to play it... I may wait for the next sale though, since it happens often.

 

[BeatnikGunsoo]

yeah nothing is happening in san diego lol

 

[Applesauce]

I don't feel too bad about missing this one since the next one in 2024 will be able to be seen in totality right outside of Austin TX. That's an easy drive for me ... may even make a mini vacation out of it.

 

[mavo]

Not even 50% yet in TN.

Nashville gets totality right? I know someone who lives there and told me he doesnt care at all.

the nerves of some people.

 

[fr0st]

yeah nothing is happening in san diego lol

there was if you have a good binoculars and glasses to see

 

[fluffydelusions]

Oh wow it really did get dark on that twitch stream!

Didn't really get very dark here in Olympia Washington and we got like 95%. Felt like sundown kinda

 

[Hidden One]

The sun creeping out like that is some scary shit actually.

 

[mattwhite924]

Seems like about 50ish % in KC right now.

I've got glasses, but I might try the binocular projection method too.

 

[Professor Lich]

I'm loving all this creepy ass music the Weather Channel keeps playing during totality shots.

 

[Ampersands]

Cloudy here in Berkeley.

At least I managed to snag a pair of sunglasses.
