Ho ho, Buzzers, get used to it: Because you'll be seeing a lot of this little star today. And pretty much every day.Courtesy LykaestriaThat’s right, folks! If you aren’t already up on your solstice news, it’s today! The north end up the Earth’s axis is at maximum tilt towards our yellow sun, and that means it’s the longest day of the year for those of us in the northern hemisphere. Yes!

Things to consider:

• It’s vampire safety day! Sock it to the sun-fearing undead, and enjoy a super long day with no fear of attack by blood suckers (except, you know, mosquitos)!
• You know that goofy, blue, photosensitive paper you can put keys and flowers and stuff on, and then develop it in your tub for a silhouette of keys and flowers and stuff? You can use that stuff for hours and hours today! Do it!
• In Antarctica today (and for weeks and weeks to come!) they won’t see the sun at all! Enjoy that, scientists!
• Your summer magic will be particularly potent today! Work on your spells, wizards!
• If you’ve got a solar car, today is your day! Head for the mountains!
• Exclamation points are free today!! Until sunset!!!! Use them all you want!!!
