wrong time to do it. my hour was yeeted into the void of spring ahead. we must be made whole by the holy promise of fall back before we close the doors of time. But yeah, really though, ending this dumb practice would be great. --- May you find your book in this place. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I would rather get rid of Daylight Wasting Time. It's nicer on the summer to have the light later, so why don't we get the light later in the winter too? It's good when you're tired at the end of the day. End the practice, but make it so it's not light at 4 am in summer. That's why winter time is called "Wasting Time." --- BlueCrystalTear | You're living your own life. You're you. #FearTheDeer | ((FREE HUGS)) ... Copied to Clipboard!

As a mail carrier, more daylight in the evening during the holidays would be great and darkness at 4:30 is depressing, so let's just keep it as it is right now. --- https://imgur.com/WqDcNNq https://imgur.com/89Z5jrB ... Copied to Clipboard!

Would be wonderful if this gets passed because Canada would follow suit to not be confusing when you go south of the border and all of a sudden it's a different time.

I think I figured out the real problem. We all want the day to have about 16 hours of daylight. But since it just doesn't have that much, we all fight over whether morning people or night people should get more of the light. What we need to do is build another sun so everyone get enough light. --- Congrats to 2020 GotD Guru champ azuarc! ... Copied to Clipboard!

I kinda imagined the reason this ever gets traction in the US is that so much of the US is far enough south that it doesn't hurt as badly Instead of depressing darkness at 5pm in Canada in say, December, there's more light for kids to play out in snow or whatever. It would be darker in mornings, but if you're going to get up to start the school/work day, I don't really care about getting extra sunlight in the morning. --- "To be underestimated is an incredible gift." - Jack Rackham, Black Sails ...

It has a temporary negative psychological effect. ignoring that i was wrong about which direction this cuts, this argument clearly misses the point - on the one day, there's the psychological effects caused by the change.

The psychological effect also impacts more than a single day. It can take me a few weeks to suddenly adjust to having to sleep an hour earlier. And I'm pretty sure being tired while driving in the morning is comparatively dangerous to it being a bit darker. --- My top 100 games (with write-ups): https://foolfantastic.com/top-100-video-games-project/ Top 250 songs: https://foolfantastic.com/3290-2/ ...

On the months in between the change, there is an impact on driving conditions which you would imagine impacts road safety. I believe the argument is that more accidents occur by having it get dark earlier in the evening than the amount that happens if it gets light later in the morning, so they want to do away with the whole "dark earlier in the evening" bit. Like somebody said, accidents did go up in the morning, but they decreased by a higher amount in the evening, so it was a net positive. --- #SEP #Awesome #Excellent #Greatness #SteveNash #VitaminWater #SmellingLikeTheVault #Pigeon #Sexy #ActuallyAVeryIntelligentVelociraptor #Heel #CoolSpot #EndOfSig ...

You wouldn't be making DST permanent, because that doesn't make any sense. You would be shifting every state that observes DST one hour ahead and eliminating DST (e.g. ET is now UTC-04:00 instead of UTC-05:00) --- rip imgcake ... Copied to Clipboard!
