stupid kid looked straight at the sun while shooting. now he has burnt retinas

[–] sbv@sh.itjust.works 18 points 3 months ago (1 children)

You need to wait until the sun is fully covered to shoot safely.

[–] ivanafterall@kbin.social 26 points 3 months ago (2 children)

So you only shoot it when it's dark? Pretty sure this guy's a cop, everyone.

What if they push the moon into the sun? We could end up with no moon

[–] bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de 1 points 3 months ago

What if they already did? Someone should monitor the moon's distance to see if that's true.

Who turned Winnie the Pooh into a 3y/o?

The little dude's wearing pants though, unlike Pooh.

Which reminds me, I have another funny thing to post

She spoke with the wisdom that can only come from experience

Like a woman who went blind

Because she looked at a solar eclipse without one of those boxes

With pinhole in it and now goes around the country speaking at high schools about

The dangers of looking at a solar eclipse without one of those boxes

With a pinhole in it
