Daylight...

[xp_humantorch]

I appreciate the extra hour of  daylight but honestly losing an hour of sleep is way worse. Can’t we just fix the time? It’s not like we’re still farmer’s kids needing that extra light to help in the harvest or whatever. 

Consider this the starting of a new movement to do away with daylight savings time altogether... or it would be but i’m so tired.

That whole thing about it being for farmers' benefit's pretty fake, man. And the other thing about it supposedly being to save money through lowering energy consumption is also a lie. It saves like .03% energy and some study for a few years ago demonstrated that it actually increased energy consumption in the fall. Also, it increases heart attacks and things like car wrecks cause of sleep deprivation.

And people've been trying to get rid of it for years -- like, since it started. Farmers actually fought all the legal stuff trying to prevent it from being implemented. Fucking Rubio's got a bill thing going in Florida to change to DST permanently and get rid of standard time, since DST's seven months of the year, anyway.

I should be ashamed that I spend my days at the computer listening to late comedians. But relevant link is too relevant
