I would venture to guess it had to do with noon. It would have always been easy to say sunrise, sunset or noon even before a clock or sundial were invented. Remember there were no aircraft flying through the timeshifts. The effects of time on long distance travel were negligable if noticeable at all. Communications also traveled slowly. Once technology introduced clocks, you could see how your noon no longer aligned with the sun a couple hundred miles east or west. Your clock would not match the place you are visiting as noon had hands both pointing straight up as where the sun would also be located at that time. Your question only becomes relevant when we get light speed communication like radio and telegraph.

“Good afternoon German friend how is the weather today?” “WHY ARE YOU RINGING ME IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT, AMERICAN FRIEND!?” Not a real conversation, but you can imagine.

The answer: people hate change.

Form a healthy relationship with death. You can understand why it happens and attend other funeral services so that by the time you lose someone that close, you can manage the emotions of personal loss without the shock of mortality.

Teachers are generally quite adaptable. We have asjustes for AI in our classrooms. We have adjuated to not teaching up to standards because we would be fined by our states for pushing some imaginary agenda. We have changed our entire curriculum the week before classes start because the County curriculum specialist had a bright idea.

The reality is that we have to navigate arbitrary law, we have to not do what’s best for our classroom and teaching style because someone who hardly spent any time in a classroom thinks they know better. We have to do all this while being blamed for the behavior of students when their parents block the school phone numbers.

You, for being such a whiny little bitch of a sore loser.

We would make it too complicated. Almost all animals are in survival mode. Some that have free time could understand limited concepts. It would be easier to setup commerce with some corvids for example but not to keep them out of the corn fields. Dogs would have a lot more anxiety and cats wouldn’t change much.

Not to give the argument credibility, but there are women who do that. I knew one and heard about another.

Confirmation bias is too strong for everyone to resist. They often don’t even need a single varifiable source.

The internet was so full of life and learning.

The “none pizza, left beef” story got me pretty good when it origionally posted.

This was fun when my business address was some office I’d never been to.

Not going back home. Driving up home costs for working families.

I don’t understand your explanation of your habit. It comes off as you don’t like vegetables and are choking them down to get to what you like. Is that a correct interpretation? My wife just made the best dinner and all three items were green vegetables.

I am teaching this next week. It is sometimes painful how simplified we have to make content for middle school. You are expressing what science teachers hope for from students. You were curious enough to explore further and ask questions, the true purpose of science.

This is painful.

I recommend cocaine.

Nah. That was the classical period of the internet with great leaps in learning and creativity. Now it is the middle ages where capitalism/feudalism wrecked all sense of community.

Voting for lesser evil just slows down the evil, it doesn’t reverse it. It’s still going in the wrong direction.

You get a gold star for that.

I haven’t figured out how to get mine to where I was on reddit back in the day. I struggle with finding communities. I often find dead communities. I often can’t find communities I’ve come across in the past when using the search to specifically find them. Any tips on how to solve this labyrinth?

Do a task everyday.

Making sure to keep working on a fixer-upper by doing something everyday will help reach the goal of maintaining rather than falling behind. Focus on things that can get worse faster. Leaks and shorts would be a top priority that should not wait. KNOW HOW TO TURN OFF MAIN WATER AND POWER. Make sure this can be done quickly.

My wife is first. Objective truth is now a secret hobby.
