4.5 billion years ago a planet named Theia got a little squirrelly and smashed into proto-earth and they splattered rocks and lava into space and it made a ring that eventually collected into a ball and now I’m looking at it hovering over Dick’s Sporting Goods

I’m casually big into space conspiracy / fringe science stuff (I don’t know anything I just love good lore) - Goddamn the moon is crazy. That shit rings like a bell anytime we crash anything into it. The craters on it are all of relatively uniform depth regardless of diameter. The dust on the surface is older than the rock underneath. It regulates the tides and seasons. It’s placed perfectly so we can experience eclipses - the probability of that being the case is so so so low - there’s no other moon/planet relationship we know of where that’s the case. There’s plenty of mythology that references times before the moon when weather patterns were unstable and a source of constant chaos. Some say it was put there to help stabilize the planet so we could continue to evolve ;) again I do not know jack shit about how anything actually works but mannnn is there some quality moon lore out there to dive into, cool af that something with such a huge effect on our lives is such a mystery, endless fun rabbit holes.

Such a fan of hearing older men nerd out about astronomy and the moon
One guy had a contraption that connected to his telescope and allowed you to see through the lens of your phone.
got this photo of our stunning gal in her full glory with craters out and all. 🄹
Love being reminded of how tiny and finite we are.

I quit smoking cigarettes so I needed something else to stand around outside doing. So far I’m not very good at it but it’s really put into perspective what a waste of money cigarettes are.

I have an acquaintance whose personality I have always found grating and today I finally realized exactly what it is that I dislike so much: they pride themselves on being an ideal consumer. They get chuffed as fuck at how well marketing works on them to the point of being borderline braggadocious about how quickly and deliberately they react to advertising; even when they’ve been duped or scammed they admire the way they’ve been fooled. It’s so cartoonishly American, they’re like a funhouse mirror that accentuates by own stupid fatso traits and stokes my most antisocial impulses. They say you should ā€œlet people enjoy thingsā€ but there’s got to be a healthier middle ground where my friend stops enjoying adding to their credit card debt to see every Ryan Reynolds movie in IMAX and I stop enjoying hating them for it.
