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.
That’s not really true. First, if you can invent time travel you can probably do the math to calculate positions of objects. Second, even if you do need a beacon, you could use something that already exists. For example, radio waves. Earth has been shooting off radio waves for a fair amount of time now. That could be used as a beacon. Also, you could do something like having your time machine do small jumps, check it’s relative position, then adjust. This would solve just about every issue.
So you have no idea how time travel would work but youre certain that traveling through time will be simple heliocentric math and radio waves can be used as a beacon?
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?

Damn physic laws removing the fun from physics
Don’t get me started on the second law of thermogoddamics (I’ll never stop :).
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
