this isn't good folks, permanent standard time is good, this is permanent DST
this means months of driving and dropping off kids in pitch black environments in the morning which is bad for sleep and going to kill peeps
America already did this in the seventies and they hated it, p much every country that has tried permanent DST swapped off of it due to negative feedback
p much every sleep scientist on the planet thinks this is a bad idea
the reason this is being pushed by Rubio is bc later sunlight hours is good for Florida business and tourism, but fucks over the people actually living and working in the state (they're the ones getting up earlier and in the darkness), since it doesn't actually give more sunlight it just pushes it back
Ngl I’m so glad it’s permanent daylight time. This is the one thing I’ve ever agreed with Rubio on. I’m either going to work in the dark or coming home in the dark, I’d rather it be the first one so I can at least enjoy the sunlight for a bit. If it’s dark out when I leave work I want to kill myself.
different strokes for different folks I hate getting up at night, it absolutely fucks my sleep up and
i like when it gets dark really early in the afternoon, everyone in the house settles as if it were night already and i get left alone
this is actually semi based though, fuck that shit
pointless where I live
I mean they wouldn't have established universal healthcare anyway. If this was somehow blocking a bill it probably would be a more money for cops or war because that's all that passes
This is kind of a form of healthcare because my sleep is fucked for at least a month each time the time changes and that fucks with my mental and physical wellbeing.
permanent DST is a fuck, noon should be at noon, stop trying to change the way our lizard brains situate ourselves to the heavens in order to make treat shopping after work less dark
I can already see the screeching in r/Arizona:
WHY DO WE GOTTA BE IN THE SAME TIME ZONE AS COMMIEFORNIA?????
well its already on pacific time half the year, AZ doesn't change their clocks at all
I’ve never watched an episode of king of the hill but that clip makes me laugh every time
I don’t think I’ve ever agreed with anything my Senator has done before this. Critical support to 🤢 Marco Rubio 🤮
Okay.... nobody drop any nukes until we get to see if this thing passes.
I've seen the Berlin Wall fall, the USSR disintegrate, drugs that could effectively treat HIV/AIDS and it would be great to be able to add this to my scrapbook.
Good, DST succ. It causes massive circadian disruption and heart attacks everywhere.
Bill ends up on Joe Biden's desk.
THIS IS A THREAT TO DEMOCRACY
Pacific and Mountain timezones should be combined imo, but this is good enough.
Probably a bad idea as it would only worsen the effects of living on the west side of a time zone.
For people in the former Pacific TZ there would be no difference from the permanent DST that everyone is a fan of
China has a single timezone, they seem to be doing alright.
As a software engineer, my gut reaction is that this is going to ruin my life somehow.
Also don't like it being DST instead of standard time... but I guess it's good in places like MA, who should be in a time zone earlier than Eastern Time anyway.
