You know, I was just talking about this with my brother. We got onto how the actual TV schedule shaped the shows themselves. Like, the writers knew they had to do a full story in 22 minutes, and they knew you had a whole week to let it sink in and talk about it on the playground. That cliffhanger at the end of a 'Batman: The Animated Series' episode would actually matter. Now, with a full season dumped at once, a show can feel like one long, blurry movie. The pacing is totally different. It's not built for weekly watercooler talk, it's built for forgetting what happened three episodes ago because you watched them all in one night.

It's funny how often the extra step you think is overkill ends up being the one that saves the whole job.

My buddy Dave finally stopped scanning the whole sky and just watched Orion for an hour.

My buddy faked it for two years before his clients caught on and made him a partner.

But what about the soil? If you water in the sun, the top layer can bake into a hard crust that the water just runs off of. So you're not just losing water to the air, you're also making it harder for what's left to actually sink in. It seems like you need to pick the least bad time of day, not a perfect one.
