  1. So for the next week.... my meetings with North America will be 1 hour earlier? And then revert to what they were before?

    DST is a menace. Abolish DST!

  2. Ready to lose an hour of sleep for no good reason!?
    No?
    Well too bad.
    It is: arbitrary-time-manipulation-night, Lose an Hour Edition.

    This is so dumb.

  3. TIL that states can choose to switch to permanent standard time without Congress being involved. Arizona and Hawaii have already done that. Now if only Kentucky would make that change! #kentucky #daylightsavings #standardtimeforever

  4. I agree with this unscientific poll about changing the time, AND keeping Standard Time permanently! It is what our bodies expect.

    Now that the USA is a complete basket case can BC and Canada stop waiting for the USA to jump first and just get it over with already?

    Ending the time change is the lowest of the low hanging fruit for "popular things to do".

    JUST FOLLOW SCIENCE AND DO IT!

  5. Body is definitely telling me it's 6:48AM not 7:48AM no matter what time system some arbitrary politician is imposing on me.

    “5:15” came WAY too early....

  10. Ah yes, the time change. What a bullshit idea. I’ll be messed up for a month. #StandardTimeForever

  11. I hate #daylightSavingsTime. It does nothing beneficial for us, nor farmers. It causes people health issues and there are huge financial costs from the change overs every year, but we just keep doing it

  12. @alan Do you know why that is? That this bill doesn't need federal approval but the DST one did?

    It sounds like an excellent talking point and I am gonna be hella pestering some reps.

  13. Another fun fact. Tomorrow, November 4, the day before the time change, the sun will rise at 8:08AM local time.

    After the time change to Standard Time this weekend, the sun will not rise that late again until the day *after* the shortest day of the year, December 22. The latest it will rise will be 8:10AM, the same time between Dec 27 and Jan 4, until it starts to move earlier.

    If we were to instead keep Daylight Savings Time then the sun would rise (in this location just above the 49th Parallel) after 8AM every day between October 30 and February 28 and not until after 9AM during winter solstice/Christmas time.

    Gross.

  14. Fun Fact: The only reason I am at work 20min before sunrise on this Day of Our Lord November 3, 2023 is because about 50 years ago some guy wanted to sell more hotdogs for the BBQ.

  15. @SallyStrange I just want the sun to be highest at noon. That's it. Always. I am but a simple man.
