Public clocks, private dread

Whobelieves

A private journal for public clocks that do not tell the truth.

How the lie is logged

Photograph a dial. Measure the lag. Answer whether anyone should believe it.

  1. 01 Photograph the dial Station hall, church nave, mall atrium, tower, platform, or civic square — capture the face that is already lying.
  2. 02 Record the offset Set the time it shows against the time you trust. The ledger stores the lag in minutes, not a guess.
  3. 03 Answer honestly Believe it, doubt it, or refuse it forever. Watchlist the worst liars and return when the anxiety meter turns crimson.

Sightings, not slogans
