you start going insane, and start to hallucinate
Lovely picture! Either I don’t get the meme part or I can’t find Saddam.
He’s there, in the jpg artifacts
Those aren’t the sun in the sky. They’re beans.
The meme is that there is no meme, and the picture is just doctored - the sun doesn’t follow that pattern at all…
It absolutely does, my friend. It’s called the analemma.
And that might be the meme.
hey that’s what we call my friend Emma
Does she want more friends?
sorry i don’t think so. she doesn’t really like change. she’s very uptight and particular about things in a way that… i don’t know. i wish there was a word for it.
Watson or Stone?
(A Lemming’s reply when I made the same juvenile joke last time was: ‘Thompson, actually’)
This is what early astronomers thought the orbit was. They believed the earth to be the center of the universe, and couldn’t explain the strange orbits of the stars and planets.
And there’s still people out there, believing that.
Ridiculous. Clearly it’s turtles all the way down.
Just the one turtle. Well, at least per world. I guess two, it you drop off the edge while they’re mating.
And there’s four elephants down there, too.
Wait. Is that one turtle per dimension, one turtle per universe, or one turtle that lives inside each black hole that’s really just a wormhole to another dimension/universe?
Nandor the Relentless agrees with you
Go home, sun. You’re drunk.
I think I count 46 shots. Missed a few weeks.
Or it was overcast on those days. 46/52 is far better than you’d be able to manage in my area.
Instead of making me think about space, the solar system or the universe… this just gives me an existential crisis, visualising how few weeks are actually in a year and how brief a lifetime actually is.
Then I try to think about space instead.
“Every week” but there are only 46 suns in the image. I will never trust strangers on the internet again
You know you spend way too much time on the internet. When your first though at seeing the top of the loop is that it’s going to be a penis made out of the sun moving around.

Where is Saddam?
i think the clouds?
Nnnnnnggggg!!
This is highly infuriating! The sun keeps narrowly missing taking out the church spire.
Makes me think of Anathem
My analemma.
so clearly sun rotates around earth, in your face Galileo - Church probably
Neat. I naturally assume the very few apparent gaps are due to bad/cloudy weather on those particular days…
There should be 52 suns in the picture
Yes, that’s exactly my point. I counted 46.
You can’t expect clear skies every day/week of the year can you?
