    If you go on YouTube and look up videos of the eclipse yesterday, you’ll see a ton of videos about why the eclipse marks the beginning of the end of the world. Just pure and total insanity or people taking advantage of that insanity. You might be surprised but you probably won’t be because you know in your heart that we’re just that far gone now.

      Yeah I was going to say this is what overpopulation looks like. Then I remembered the witch trials in the 1600s and thought there’s plenty more crazy shit people have done. There’s more people now and arguably less crazy shit. Stuff like this is always going to happen though, human condition. Still horrible, we’ve got lots of work to do as a species.

      I mean, we gotta mark the Beginning of the End somewhere, right? Might as well be during an eclipse.
