LA actually has legislation in place to do away with it, but it requires fedgov to pass their own law first. Fedgov moves at the speed of frozen molasses on anything beneficial to the people and at light speed on anything harmful.

DST starts next week.

If God time is Standard Time, then we are moving away from it.

Yes but they decided to keep it the same just to piss you off.

Feels that way. So it’s the compromised Congress responsible for the delay?

Is this something that grifter (Butch) Cassidy, Foghorn, Johnson, and Graves could be pushing forward with? Is Graves on permanent vacation, or something? I haven’t seen anything from him. CCP found a way to blackmail him?

People complaining abt DST is way worse than the actual issue. Unreal.

A farmer complained that he already works from sunrise to sunset and now with going on daylight saving time he’ll have to work even longer in the evening.

Probably in the minority but I hate DST. Takes me forever to wind down in the evening. And nobody needs it to stay daylight til 8:30/9 in the summer. If you left it alone, it still wouldn’t get dark til 7:30 and that’s plenty for anyone

It always amazes me. Switching back and forth is actually the best system even though I do much prefer DST. That people are put out by this shows just how soft we are.

Yep agree 100%

Honestly just a bunch of cry baby bitches whining about the clock changing. How fricking old are you people whining. Grow up, put your big girl panties on and deal with it.

You don't even have to manually change 90% of clocks. I honestly never notice it changed other than sunset being earlier or later.
