I'm living in a shitty, unsafe area. DST in the fall means it gets darker sooner, not safe to go out, get stuff done. The pepper spray comes out earlier. By December, gets dark at 430pm, and I'm like wtf, seriously?

The clock doesn’t yet say it’s winter time, but Saturday hit 83°, like summer, Sunday rained all day, like Spring, and Thursdaywill be our first day below freezing, like winter

Yes we should stay in summer time. It was already getting dark super early and now it's dark at like 5pm

Honestly no, though I really think this is a factor of how close to a pole you are. It's hard enough to deal with the dark coldness, not getting bright til like 10am would be even worse.

I'm boycotting the time switch.
Sure, the clocks show something different now. But in summer I went to sleep at 11pm, got up at 7:30 and arrived at work at 9.
Now I go to sleep at 10pm, get up at 6:30 and arrive at work at 8. I'll stay on that schedule till they switch the clocks again in spring.

I have not noticed a difference yet...

Daylight savings is a fucked up idea. People that want to end the practice but stay with summer time are fucking idiots.

There’s a fucking resason why we call 12 “12”. Stop fucking with it!

I have a severe circadian rhythm disorder- yes absolutely lol, daylight savings destroys me every year

My time hasn't changed yet, but I'm not looking forward to it

I feel like everyone's complaining too much about it, it really doesn't matter that much and I think people only care because they're told to. I don't take this position seriously it sounds like a joke.

It would be cool if we all commited sucide

DST in the winter would suck so much. Think of all the worsened seasonal depressive disorders (aka winter depression). If the alternative would mean an increase in suicide numbers I will gladly endure the annoyance of changing my clocks twice a year.

Then again if we could abolish DST - yeah I'd be down for that. But too many people think getting rid of standard time will make our winters more like our summers. But it won't. It will make them worse. Our biology isn't meant to wake up three hours before sunrise.

No. It might be fine for people down closer to the equator but for me getting up at 7:00 in the morning with pitch black. Now it's daylight.

You can all get lost with the oh no I have to change the clock by 1 hour and it's confusing. No you don't practically every clock in the world will do it automatically you don't even need to be told about it. And the clock in your car is always wrong anyway.
