Toot

Written by Rebecca Wirfs-Brock on 2025-01-11 at 00:34

Today's word from the Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows:galagog--the state of being simultaneously entranced and unsettled by the vastness of the cosmos, which makes your deepest concerns feel laughably quaint, yet vanishingly rare.

From galaxy + agog (awestruck)
