Original Note:
You do not feel the Earth spinning due to it moving at a constant speed which you are also moving along with - much like how you don't feel like you're travelling at 500mph when on a plane. If the speed of the Earth's rotation were to change suddenly, you would feel it. https://earthsky.org/earth/why-cant-we-feel-earths-spin/ https://www.livescience.com/physics-mathematics/why-dont-we-feel-earth-spinning https://www.sciencealert.com/here-s-why-we-don-t-feel-earth-s-rotation-according-to-science
