Change my clocks in 15 minute intervals daily until correct.

It's not ridiculous. Settle down by 7, be in bed by 9-10. Up by 5-6 for a full 8 hours.

People with shitty office jobs - standard time isn't your problem. Your problem is that you've structured your life in such a way that you're wasting away your daylight on bullshite. You could do your little spreadsheets at night but that would require personal change.

It’s a fact that establishments, attractions, etc. are more likely to be open at 9pm rather than 4am. DST works better in summer for this very reason. Daylight at 4am is absurd, which is why we will never have year round standard time.

You know that just because you have a schedule and job that allows you to do that, it doesn’t mean everyone else does, right?

Old people hate DST because they go to sleep at 6:00 and wake up at 3:00 to watch Matlock and eat porridge.

I love this time change. Regular, standard time should be the norm.

I go to sleep about 9:30pm and get up around 5:30am. Standard time works better for me.

I've got no use for it to be dark when I'm trying to get going and daylight when I'm trying to wind down. I don't love the 5:15 sunsets but it doesn't last that long. I'd actually prefer 7:30-7:45 sunsets in the summer.

You should probably do something else.

Not happening. If we pick one, it will be DST.


It was done before sometome in the 60s, and people hated it and we reverted back to switching clocks.

I’m excited about being able to drive to work in the light now. But my commute home might be dim

I think we should just keep things like they are…even if we didn’t change the time in fall, it still gets dark pretty early. It may not be at 5 but still by 6.

People hated it because we have substantial evidence that shows daylight savings time is worse for overall health and wellbeing.

I know people like more light later, but it's actually unhealthy.

Just keep at one thing and I'll adjust accordingly.
