it's especially funny/sobworthy that looking up the current time in various locations has worked perfectly well on google for years, because someone took the time to design, code and test a useful feature. but that's not Number Go Up enough so now we have the all-knowing video card that says 7:14 pm

Happy Julia (Jul14) day! 😻

Happy International Non-Binary People's day to all of our non-binary siblings around the world.

Non-binary people have always existed and always will.
