That's it?

Well, that's what it kind of looks like, but it's actually even more profound than that.

Wow.

I think we're being robbed of that because of cities.

Light pollution has robbed us of what I think all of our ancestors always inherently observed.

When nighttime came around, everybody realized, well, you're a part of the infinite cosmos and there's magic to the universe, which is why there were so many people, you know,

hundreds if not thousands of years ago that had these whimsical tales and these ideas of the importance of life and existence when they're in the most brutal moments of history.

They're in the most brutal moments of life, life or death, hunter-gatherers, warring tribes, but yet at night you're presented with this

impossible majesty of the cosmos above your head every night.

Now today, we have fucking social media.

This is your sun.

This is your star.

You're staring at a stupid fucking screen and when you look up, you just see nothing but blackness because there's all these city skyscrapers and all these street lights.

It's blinded out, the one thing that is like one of the most important humbling, grounding experiences, peering at the cosmos.

Isn't it weird?

It's certainly a different experience.

Yeah.

Doing it outside is certainly way better.
