inMy local museum's new exhibit on Inca textiles is mind-blowing.
The part about dedicating a whole lifetime to finishing just one textile is what gets me. We're talking sixty years or more on a single piece of cloth. My focus is shot if a podcast buffers for ten seconds. The sheer scale of that commitment, starting as a kid and maybe not even seeing it done, is hard to even picture. It makes our idea of a long-term project look silly. That kind of patience feels like it comes from another planet.

Respectfully, forcing someone to give an exact minute doesn't always prove they're wrong. Sometimes the problem is how they explain what happens in that clip, not finding the clip itself. People can watch the same minute and come away with totally different views. It just turns into an argument about what words mean. The method works for clear-cut facts, but a lot of online debates are messier than that.
