Also reminds me of the woman highlighted on Tik Tok where she said “Europe is 5 hours ahead of us in America, so why don’t they just tell us what has just happened so we can do something about it before it happens here”. There’s just no helping some people.
You’d be surprised at how many groceries you could get into that time machine. However, paying for the groceries might be a problem. Our currency has been changed dramatically in the past few decades
Oh, I wonder if someone has written a sci-fi short in which time travel is invented, and then ends up with about as much effect and the same sort of use/abuse as the Internet.
People always talk as if the past is better than the present. It usually was simpler, fewer distractions, but not better. I tend to look to the future instead of the past.

Go when gold is down, buy a coin. Go when gold is up, sell the coin. Repeat.

Get me some canola oil. That stuff went up more than 100% since 2021.

My mother used to tell me that back in the early 60s, $20 could buy a whole month of groceries.

That would come in handy, not only would the food be cheaper (as implied) but you can also get the stuff you can’t get no more.

Are the 1960s grocery prices offset by the current wealth index and fuel costs to operate that thing?
Oh, wait — cartoon food for thought…

" The past is a foreign country. They do things differently there." Which includes currency. It isn’t only the date that differs.
