[Title] "Time Management Tips"
"The day, alas, is only 24 hours long." [a timeline]
"But… have you noticed that the day is circular?" [a clock-circle]
"24 hours is its circumference. Thus, its radius is 12/π, or roughly 3.82 hrs."
"Hence, the day's area is roughly 45.8 square hours."
"DAYS AREN'T TOO SHORT. THEY JUST HAVE UNTAPPED DIMENSIONS."
