      I don't know how this EST UTC PST OMG WTF time zone business works

      Yeah, it legit breaks my brain. Best advice would be to google [day of the week] + ?:?? am/pm UTC - google will tell you how this translates over to your local time zone. Just be mindful that you have your translated day as well as the time. Because there's that big gap between time zones, sometimes a time will occur on a different day for you vs the day on the UTC time.

      I'm not explaining it well, I hate time zones. China stay winning. What I'm trying to say is that your morning might be the same time as somewhere else's night on the day before or vice versa, so don't just assume Wednesday UTC = Wednesday for you.

      Since you've raised this issue, I could probably do better and add a countdown timer to the next post. Here's an example of a countdown timer for when this current event is set to happen. Hopefully that will take the confusion out of the equation for you.
