Text Chat Embedded Time Stamps

In my discord we are a lot of people from different time zones. On some occasions we need to meet at set times, but as we are in different time zones, everyone has to calculate what time we need to meet at from their relative time zone.

It would be nice if there was some chat function where you could select a time, for example, i say:

@everyone meet up at 24-06-2019 20:00 GMT +1, and it would show up for someone in america as 24-06-2019 15:00 (EST)

Maybe if there was a countdown timer embedded, it would be cool too. Sometimes we use something like this:
https://www.tickcounter.com/countdown/1277341/discord-chat-function-deadline

because it eliminates any chances of confusion. It would just be incredibly cool if it was a part of discord, instead of relying on a third party site. And i do believe a lot of people could and would use it to coordinate their online meetups

Thanks!
