Oh just move it to midnight already.

I'm tired of this shit.

I'm almost 70 and they have been moving that damn hand my whole life. Just do it and get it over with.

They’ll just move where midnight is.

they expect every time they move it someone would make a song about it but the only time it happened was during the 2 minutes to midnight era because Iron Maiden are bunch of nerds.

I guess the silly thing is, ok, it's midnight, so, game over? New clock?

Like it was designed to, idk, keep people up to speed on how serious the situation is. In the information age, though, we are beyond aware at this point. Inundated. Sick of it. And the solutions are there, but it's people purposefully stopping them because they are ignorant with ancient bullshit they refuse to move on from.

We don't need a clock, we need a fucking rolled up newspaper, smacking racists, misogynists, phobes of all types, and those who think their religion is better than others. Oh, people are acting poorly to each other. Smack.
