Totality is something like 2 min and not for everyone, as you've probably seen. Be careful, all. https://c.tadst.com/gfx/750x500/tota...ng-beads.jpg?1

it was fun. Everything in downtown portland just kind of stopped between 9:30 and 10:30 this morning. I managed to buy a pair of eclipse glasses in the park for $1. We had a 99% eclipse, just off from Totality. Thousands of people left Portland over the weekend to get out to several towns that were on the direct path of the eclipse. They're expecting to have a massive traffic jam for the rest of the day as people try to get back into the city

I watched that shit with my bear eyes. Don't give a fuck. Half way thru the Boris concert in 2011 I took (Shanana) my earplugs out.

Yeah. Now there's this bright spot in the middle of my vision.

Also watched that shit with my bare eyes. Don't give a fuck

It was super cool -- normally the moon is a crescent but the sun was a crescent today.

it was much too cloudy to see much from where we were

we used the shoe-box viewer a few times between 11:30 and 1:30 any time the clouds would break enough

still cool tho

Eclipse was pretty cool. Got to about 80% solar coverage in my region. This was my first time viewing one.
