Is it because our solar system is hurdling through space at over 1.5 million miles per hour, so anyone who time travels will find themselves alone in an empty void?

There's no universal frame of reference. Any theoretical time travel would likely need a beacon of some sort to calibrate their arrival point, meaning you couldn't travel back beyond the point time travel was established.

Don't get me started on the second law of thermogoddamics (I'll never stop :).

So if I was going to correct you by referencing the thermodynamic law that forbids "never stopping" but upon further inspection determined that was the joke in the first place, does that mean I have created an example of the zeroth law?

Bless you for furthering this meme

Arbeit macht Frei... but also, Arbeit is the energy transfer that occurs when a force is applied to move an object over a distance
