It's not getting darker ON earth, for earthlings
Earth is reflecting less light back to space.
Because it is absorbing more energy due to the greenhouse effect (climate change)

Tell that to my retinas, the faintest glimmer and I’m blinded for ten minutes.
Yup, as I age my eyesight is getting worse but lights are starting to bother me more. At this point I'm ready to join an underground mole society to live out the rest of my days.
Put in a good word for me
In basic terms, that means our planet is now reflecting less sunlight back into space.
Sounds like it's your eyes absorbing it all
🎶 When the sun hits your eyes and makes temperatures rise, low-albedo🎶
Albedo is the word they are looking for.
Yup, we are indeed in the mirror universe…
So this is the beginning of the dark ages.
