EST should be -4 not -5. this is fucking reactionary and you can't expect me to remember this shit. fuck congress for ruining this possibility after passing it.
Standard time was the standard: noon was when sun was directly overhead. Daylight saving time is revisionist bullshit.
Actually that would be when the sun is on the meridian. The sun can never be directly overhead unless you are in the tropicsStandard time should be treated like the four humors or the plum pudding model of the atom; It was the best we had for a while, but it’s obsolete since we discovered a better way
Reject tradition, embrace modernity
Daylight savings time only saves daylight in the context of you spending your entire day working and being spared the paltry scraps of the day, and outside of a 40+ hour workweek is a meaningless shift of numbers on a clock that only serves to move noon and midnight away from any kind of astronomical or biological signifiers
Reject modernity, embrace tradition, demand to work less for moneygrubbing assholes
