Hi, I have a couple of questions about Jeb for you :3

What does he like to eat? Does he like snacking? If so, what kind of snacks does he prefer?

his comfort food is familiar food (except beetroot in any form, it's his discomfort food), and if he has a choice, he will always choose food he already knows, given that he didn't dislike it of course, over trying something new.

also if the dish has a lot of ingredients with one of them standing out by texture, like croutons in caesar salad, he doesn't like it much. or if the dish is a minced mishmash like some salads or ragout. he likes when every ingredient in his food is recognizable.

he likes mashed potatoes with meatballs. and apples.

he rarely snacks at home, just when he's at work or somewhere outside. he likes peanuts and dried fruits as snacks.

These things are from 7/11???? I used to have a whole line of these in different colors - some would dance and some would bobble in light.

Unfortunate (for me).

i have such a love for characters who descend into madness or villainy out of deep, deep empathy. characters who fundamentally cannot cope with the cruel realities they find themselves in and blow up about it in spectacular fashion. fallen angel type characters with tears of outrage in their eyes. characters who break before they bend, and break so badly they splatter blood all over their noble ideals. every variation on it gets me so good

Photographers all know about polarizing filters. They remove reflections off the surfaces of objects. We use them to see into water or windows that are obscured by those reflections. But anything with an even slightly glossy surface has a layer of reflection on top. So if you have a shiny green plant, it can remove the shiny and reveal a very saturated green underneath. Polarizers also remove a lot of scattered and reflected light from the sky. Which reveals a deep blue color you didn't even know was there.

Here is a photo I took of my circular polarizer.

And the first thing I noticed when walking outside during the eclipse was the color of everything was more saturated, just like in that circle. Apparently, an eclipse significantly reduces polarized light and I got this creepy feeling because I was only ever used to seeing the world like that through the viewfinder of my camera.

The other thing I noticed was my outdoor lights. I leave them on all the time because I never remember to turn them on at night. And usually the sun will render them barely visible during the day. On a very sunny day they almost look like they are off.

But you can clearly see they are shining and even flaring the camera during the eclipse.

Our eyes adjust to lighting changes very well so it was hard to tell how much dimmer things were, but that is a good indication. I took this photo a few minutes ago and you can see how dim the lights appear after the moon has fucked off.

I did a calculation using the exposure settings between these two photos. The non-eclipse photo has 7 f-stops more light. That is 128 times or 12,700% more light.

A partial Pringle eclipse cut the sun's light by 99.2% and somehow our eyes adjusted to make it seem like a normal sunny day (with weird ass saturated colors).
