    Hey so a couple things about the eclipse. You know I'm a bad amateur astronomer and I was excited about it for a while. BUT...

        I can't afford to travel anywhere to see it. Was super sad about it and stuff and then realized a bunch of things that made me feel better:

        There's an eclipse frenzy! Same neighbors that kinda clown me for looking at the stars and planets are now asking me about the eclipse lol.

        That frenzy has hit the best towns to see the eclipse in, too. So I was probably gonna get caught in a bad traffic thing that day in Oregon.

        If you're in LA I'd advise you to not go to an obvious place like the observatory to watch the eclipse. You'll get stuck in traffic and cry.

        This is true for lots of places. Eclipse frenzy means eclipse traffic. Plan way ahead if you're not gonna be at your home/work/school.

        Another thing: eclipse sunglasses. They exist for a reason and will prolly sellout. Do NOT use regular sunglasses. https://eclipse2017.nasa.gov/safety

        You can also use a couple of pieces of paper and watch the eclipse through a pinhole. There are lots of variations. All are cool.

        Finally: there's already lots of inaccurate eclipse stuff online. Even from otherwise reputable sources. Check twice. Or three times.

        Just now, I entered my zip code on a reputable news site to check the eclipse time. It said it would start at 10a and last 15 hours.

        Going to the observatory for the eclipse is like the worst idea ever. There aren't multiple lanes or even side streets. You'll get stuck.

        Several suggested that the library is giving away free eclipse glasses. In LA, that's kinda true but *very* limited: https://colapublib.org/eclipse/

        If you don't already have eclipse glasses, get them now. But we can also watch with pinholes -- or things that have holes like colanders.

        If you think about it, we non-astronomers don't really observe the sun by watching it. We understand it through its light and shadows.

        California uses a lot of solar energy; that power will be reduced on Monday due to the eclipse.It's actually an environmental justice issue.

        When solar and/or wind energy is down, we have to rely on other sources of energy. Hydro energy's an option, given that the drought is over.

        That probably won't be enough. California will likely have to increase its use of natural gas energy. Guess where are those plants located?

        A lot of those natural gas plants are in communities of color. Disproportionate burden and what not.... including during the eclipse.
