Caption: Me looking at the eclipse without glasses so I can file disability on Tuesday
I have never experienced an eclipse in my life, is it so bright that it hurts your eyes or something? I mean, I can look at the sun and be just fine, just wondering

You are extremely lucky to be experiencing it. Its a life altering experience. No, you can not look at the sun; yes you need special glasses up until the moment of penumbra. Make sure to look at the ground too, and the shadows leaves cast on the ground. Also, leave your blood egg pendents at home or you'll summon a horde of demons.
Lol, I'll make sure I leave em at home, ty :D
No, it's just that normally nobody WANTS to stare at the sun but that day everyone will be.
Glancing at the sun once or twice won't destroy your eyes obviously. Looking at it repeatedly for more than a split second as you'll want to during an eclipse though...
If you're in the path of totality you can look at directly when it fully covers the sun, it will be about as bright as a full moon. But that's only a few minutes, then you can't look at it (without protection) again.
Got it now, thanks
On top of that, another problem that was reported last total solar eclipse is that your eyes will dilate because it looks dark
Enough of the UV radiation will still reach them, though, and especially right as the sun comes back into view, while your eyes are even more vulnerable than normal while they’re dilated
You aren't just fine though, it just isn't a much damage at once compared to what you'll get from the eclipse. Think of it like the sun looking back at you with laser vision during that time.
