The world is cruel and ugly. There are plenty of justifiable things to be upset and distraught over. I don’t want to hear about those. I want to know what bizarre out of left field takes you have that infuriates you.

I’m still upset about Tenochtitlan falling and being buried. I’m a gringo, I shouldn’t have an opinion about Lake Texcoco being drained centuries ago.

    Hating daylight savings isn’t weird, it’s dumb and everyone knows it’s dumb.

    Timezones are arbitrary lines on the map that were made when trains were new and there was no good way to coordinate otherwise. We are way past that, everyone has an automatically synced and precise way of telling time on them pretty much at all times. The “time” is an arbitrary number. Noon is not when the sun is highest in the sky most of the year unless you live near the equator, midnight is rarely “the middle of the night”, 9 to 5 should be deleted, and have one universal time would be one step closer to uniting human kind.

    Timezones are fucking dumb, it’s not the 1800s. I’ll fight to the death over this.
