    It's interesting that even with 90% you can just barely tell something is off.

    I didn't realize how much the temperature would drop because of the eclipse it's probably 20 degrees cooler here in centex.

    Idk if it's my glasses or what but the entire outside looked like an instagram filter to me. It bothered my vision a lot from about 11:40-12:15

    Just got an update from HEB: people here are already panic buying stuff like water and dry goods and freezer meat.

    We're gonna get slammed with tourists for a week, but it's not the ******* apocalypse.

    Oh the police departments have been planning for the onslaught of tourists for over a year. It’s a big issue for the cell phone carriers too.
