And now in modern conveniences, the temperature could be the same all the time and the, you know, lighting everywhere. But the culprit really is the screens. You know, I saw a video on my Facebook reminders, like 10 years, Simon Sinek and I talking, it has 38 million views. It just, for me, I just say, don't touch your phone.
