1. Oh Dear Goddess, that was painful.

[jimfields33]

10. What's in her Vape pen?

[JanMichael]

32. Obviously something stronger than Delta 8...

Maybe it is a glue vape?

[hatrack]

2. I lasted 42 seconds . . .

Anybody else?

[niyad]

13. I made it to a minute, but only because it took me that long to understand

what she was saying. When I first saw the power lines, I thought somebody was going to use them as a zip line.

3. I remember the first time I noticed that

It was right after I started Kindergarten, my dad was walking me to school & I suddenly noticed I could see the moon. I was truly amazed and couldn't understand why Pop was not as awestruck when I pointed it out to him.

I was 5.

18. I have a few memories like that from childhood.

"Weird! It's day, but I can see the moon! Okay, that's pretty cool! I guess that happens sometimes." ... and that was it.

4. I take a little solace in the fact that at least her husband knew the score.

I wonder how many kids as dumb as she did she manage to shit out? Idiocracy in action.

[Hekate]

5. Is she drunk?!

[Maru Kitteh]

7. Frequently, I think.

[Maru Kitteh]

6. She's having an "awakening" as in she thinks this is The Deep State ️

Or Hunter Biden or teh Jews.

[malaise]

8. Yes hon

You are fucking delusional

[spanone]

9. Her first time looking up?

[hatrack]

11. I was thinking that her phone broke and she glanced upward . . .

But then remembered what she's recording her deathless commentary on.

Oh well . . .

[spanone]

14. 🤪

12. When I was a child, I saw a solar eclipse one Summer at about 1 pm . . .

I was maybe 10 years old, attending Summer school. The teacher used it as a springboard to a lengthy discussion on celestial bodies and how it all clicks together.

15. Computer Game - Prophetic?

Years ago I really loved the game Sid Meiers Alpha Centauri. Sid Meier is the guy who created the Civilization game series. The premise was Earth is screwed so time to leave.

I always enjoyed the game because there was one faction, "The Believers". They were religious fanatics. Every game I would find them on the new planet and FUXXIN WIPE THEM OUT". It made the game fun.

But the whole plot of leaving Earth registered. Even years ago I could see this as something realistic.

Its a great game. It's available on Great Old Games for download. I still play it from time to time.

34. What's funny about your comment is that SM is a religious nutter.

Looked him up and he is an evangelical. Too funny.

[NowISeetheLight]

35. Didn't Know That

I never knew that. I admired his work at Firaxis games early on. Civilization is legendary as a game series. I wonder if he used his personal beliefs creating the fanatical "Believers" sect in the game?

From Civilization Wiki:

A fundamentalist faction wary of secular technology, led by Sister Miriam Godwinson (Unity's chaplain) from the Christian States of America.

Christian States of America... that does sound ominous

[JanMichael]

40. I enjoyed playing Civilization but it always ended with nukes and space wars

The CSA could also be the Confederate States of America.

Both CSAs are terrifying.

[Oneironaut]

16. Someone's been hitting the sauce.

[Solly Mack]

17. Alrighty then

[bahboo]

19. please...please do not procreate....

[rsdsharp]

20. She's wearing earbuds to keep what's left of her brains from leaking out.

[BannonsLiver]

21. It's probably for the best.

[ForgedCrank]

22. To be

fair, there are a hell of a lot of people who are either confused by planetary orbits and their relativity, and even more people who don't even have a clue how it all works. There's a lot to know. It was years before I was interested enough to study it a little and even now, I get confused by it sometimes and have to really think about what I'm seeing in order to understand why it is the way it is. There's a lot going on, and a lot of things in motion, not the least of that the earth is spinning to confuse the ever-changing perspective even more.
I do find it a bit frustrating though that instead of looking for answers, some people just make them up. There's more than enough of that to go around.

23. That speech alone

Could win her several elections in deep red states.

[Earth-shine]

24. That whole moon-and-sun-in-the-sky-at-the-same-time thing is proof of climate change.

Tell her that. She'll believe it. And then she will believe at least one true thing.

[dalton99a]

25. If she waits long enough, the sun and the moon will collide and break apart

while the earth watches helplessly

as predicted in the Bible

[WarGamer]

26. Oh, we've been doomed for a long time.

[Hugin]

28. Correct...

This is nothing new. The shelf life of an opened jar of mayonnaise.

[Hugin]

27. Ahh, the simple life...

To be amazed when the sun rises every morning and it gets dark at night.

[Silent3]

29. Unless you live underground in a deep cave, I don't know how you reach adulthood...

...having never seen the moon out during the daytime.

Ignorance of astronomy... that I'm used to, and can hardly be surprised about anymore.

This is a whole new level, however.

[LuckyCharms]

30. She seems

very interesting!

[Nevilledog]

38. Want me to see if she's single?

[LuckyCharms]

39. I think she mentioned a husband in the video?

He's probably really interesting too!

[Hugh_Lebowski]

31. Clearly the younger generation is not spending nearly enough of their childhood outside

Because I recall making the observation of 'wow, the moon is in the sky during the day' when I was 4-5 years old.

And many, many times since then.

[LudwigPastorius]

33. Ooh Ooh, I know this one!

Yes lady, you ARE fucking delusional.

[Straw Man]

36. "I don't know what I'm missing here ..."

Uh ... your brain? The most basic facts of science?

[roamer65]

37. You beat me to it.
