Mediation is evil, it implies two, another lie you've been sold.
Mediation usually involves compromise with the help of a third party referee for the purpose of peace.

That depends on the lifestyle. For example, the typical Stepford Wife of any culture lets the husband do the thinking, or perhaps allows the stipulations of the dole to chart a life-course, while on the other hand the independent woman needs to think in order to survive in this day and age, in the history of the world when this is written.

I have. Here's a justified true belief: Tomorrow you will either die or you won't.

Justified by the law of excluded middle this qualifies for knowledge.
A perfectly logical and reasonable belief, but true? There may not be a tomorrow, alas.

Oh, gods definitely exist. They just exist intersubjectively.

If anything exists gods do exist, intersubjectively . However there is no permanent and persistent being of any god(or anything else) as existence precedes essence. In everyday terms this means that gods are constantly and dynamically in the temporal process of coming into being.

For 13.8 billion years there's always been tomorrow. What do you think is going to happen to it?

Unimportant. Is it a 100% certainty that there will be a tomorrow? (in order to make the statement a truth).

By the way, my guess is folks will be assuming that there will be a tomorrow up to, and including the day before time stops.

By law of excluded middle it's a 100% certainty that either there will be tomorrow or there won't be.

Thus it's a justified true belief.

And my guess is that folks will never stop assuming that either there will be a tomorrow or there won't be.

And it will always be true.

Exactly, having there be a tomorrow is not a certainty (as you intimated), thus your prior example of a truth, isn't.

Would you like to consult the date of my post?

Posted on Mon Sep 23. Tomorrow - the 24th September came and went.
10 tomorrows have come and gone.

You aren't uncertain. You are just lying.

Just so you know, "tomorrow" refers specifically to the future, not the past.

Where exactly is "tomorrow" in the context of the following images?:

What I mean is, can the universe itself say anything about there being a "tomorrow"?
