#52I really am surprised by all the “lol you buy NFT so already blind” folks. Actually pretty disgusting. Disclaimer: I don’t own NFTs.
People love laughing at people they think are below them. In the current political climate, pretty much all of the groups that were laughed at are protected now and deriding them is uncouth. Thankfully, it will always be okay to laugh at stupid people but only in specific contexts.

There is no need for a disclaimer

#56Sounds very much like arc eye (welder's flash). Very painful, caused by UV.
You would think the pain would be immediate though.

#57Could someone have used uv-c black lights thinking they looked cool and not realising about the severe health hazards?
Exactly what I was thinking. UV-C.

#58I learned last night that there are low-cost cards that test for UVC exposure; here is an example:

They are usually used to verify that a purported UVC lamp is working, rather than working as a measure of protecting your eyesight, but maybe I should start bringing one of these to any concerts I go to.

#60Cited in the article: https://twitter.com/crypto_birb/status/1721222853394121193 "Thanks for great apefest logistiscs guys @yugalabs & @BoredApeYC. Incredible event and met plenty of amazing people. Still, as dozens of others, I’ve almost lost sight this night." I mean, c'mon. "Thanks, incredible event, it almost blinded me"?
It's a matter of taste, of course, but the event does not look incredible to me. https://twitter.com/slandermepls/status/1721352598945677544
Didn't they say 2500 people came?
