Silly-Time!

People talk about “oh computer fans whirring/other computer sounds are like a heartbeat” as if ticking sounds even more like a heart beating? No consideration of how timekeeping is a necessity for society (the same way computers/any device with internet are considered a necessity nowadays)?

NO consideration for how Tall Clocks (or Grandfather Clocks as most assume the name is, Tall Clocks is actually the blanket term) for generations were family heirlooms that basically commanded the house by being one of, possibly the ONLY object perfectly keeping time and chining whenever a certain time struck? No thought about how you can still do that whole “i depend on you” relationship thing people do with computers considering plenty of antique clocks need to be wound up by a person to keep going, and a human needs an object to keep time so they aren’t lost in unknowing what time it is?

NO thought about hearing chimes as some kind of “holy” sound or even demand to start a task (if you have a schedule)? Movements (the gears and other parts basically) not being seen the way people see hundreds of wires and circuit boards in one tightly packed space?
