This is the dumbest shit, all of it. None of this would happen of we could just take the step and throw out all the clocks. Plan the day by the sun & moon and stop giving a fuck about exactly what minute it is.

    K but as things currently function, I prefer daylight savings time because that means I get more daylight in the evening so I can get a modicum of daylight when out of work. Around the winter solstice capitalism prevents me from seeing the sun during the weekdays except during the little amount at work :desolate: . Ancient civilizations literally thought the gods were smiting them when the sun was out for 5 minutes during an eclipse and for about 1.5 months of the year I can't see a minute of sun on my own time 5/7 days of the week :agony-turbo:

    Fuck being a slave to the clock

    That's actually how time was invented. Ancient European clocks were set after the sun and had gears that ran in accordance with the sun, i.e. winter daylight hours were actually shorter than summer daylight hours. The sun would rise at six and set at six every day.
