Whatever you do, DO NOT go outside and look at that boring nonsupermoon. I mean it. It's not beautiful at all. It's not remotely close to super. #LCTTA #BoringMoon #Astronomy #Sarcasm

CW: CW: slight rant about astro scicomm
“tilted relative to the Sun” is so vacuous as to be meaningless. Everything is “tilted relative to the Sun.” Astrocomm must improve a lot, especially when it comes to explaining equinoxes and solstices. Happens every time, every year.
