I have a habit of keeping sunglasses on inside if I’m in a place with oppressive lighting or which is generally claustrophobic - on the tube it can be a godsend and I always always wear sunglasses at the airport. It’s calming and does really turn the volume down and if the mood strikes you can relish in how like Joan Didion you are - serenely detached yet observing and interested wherever you are.
But be warned people will assume you’re a diva and act accordingly so just be conscious of this and push the glasses back when you need to speak to someone.

For fashion purposes? Yes. As long as, if they're too dark, you take them off to talk to people because that's polite. (Also, some glasses aren't fashion glasses and that's okay!)
If the lights are too bright I also vote yes. Just tell other people when they ask so you don't look rude.
As long as people know that you're not wearing them to block people out I think it's fine. I actually WANT it to be a thing because I have some outfits that need sunglasses but no one uses them inside so I can't because I'll look silly...

They’re prescription or so you say and you didn’t think you’d be out this late and you need them and noone’s looking at you because everyone knows it means you’re invisible, they can see that, but they can’t see yooouuu

it's so fulfilling in a way that i can't fully explain but it gives u a little anonymity and mystique and also lets u just give into the music and shut everyone out for a min if u need to. 100% recommend. bonus points if they're colorful and match ur outfit

It’s funny being alive in the early rubbish days of AI.
Listened to my Wrapped Ai podcast on Spotify and got to experience my artificially-generated bodyless soulless ‘host’ chuckle and say ‘I can just imagine you strutting down the street listening to the BRAT album’
