Io Saturnalia!

Even though Io is a moon of Jupiter.

Stay warm and get fat, monkeys.
Winter is nearly halfway over.

The Sun shall rise again!
Iupiter commands it.

Wholly shit, speaking of Jupiter and Saturn, are you watching this show in the sky?

Take a pair of binoculars or a small telescope out and have a look at them, or a large telescope with a wide lense... or, just watch people talk about this and make of it what they want, by searching for "2020 Conjunction Jupiter Saturn" just, look out for people trying to hijack this for some dumb conspiracy, even if it's christian or astrological, those people don't know wtf they are talking about.

Astronomically, this is a pretty rare occasion, happening only once every 20 years, but they won't pass by this close in the sky, for something like 60 years, so, chances are, you won't see a conjunction again, like this, for the rest of your life.

Take an hour or two at dusk to have a look at them and consider what "MOVING STARS IN THE SKY!? WTF?" meant to ancient monkeys, and why the planets were considered gods by hundreds of cultures over thousands of years.

Re: Io Saturnalia!

Good times, folks.
Take care and spread some joy.

(I bet the words Io and Joy are related...)

Nailed it.
