Show up and hour early and everything is a foot higher because of how fast we’re spinning.

Any actual process for doing it would probably be continuous in some way. Even if it's just the machine making that part of the trip. Just living existence at some time and arriving at a different one doesn't make a lot of sense.

So, just more reason to do it in space.

Imagine your time machine has spiders at the time of your arrival, because it had a small defect that grew into an opening after several years.

“Ha ha, I can’t see anything, but it seems like time travel tickles”
