I want Standard Time year round, and Jay Pea is a very good source as to why it's better for us as opposed to DST.

As for me, this year I set all my clocks (except for my cell phone) to Standard Time. Yes, I'm older, but the affects of Long Covid and my insomnia makes changing the clocks intolerable. As long as I keep track of my appointments and ensure I account for the time difference, I'm fine.

All that said, Standard Time is better for everyone (except the golf lobby of course) and I hope and pray every day that DST is permanently eliminated.

I don’t care which way is chosen, just so long as the change ends. It’s stupid, causes accidents, and has absolutely ZERO benefits.

For those who say “Extra hour of daylight.” If you REALLY believe that, then just drag your sorry carcass out of bed an hour earlier so you can leave me, the clocks, and the rest of the freaking world ALONE!!

My workday starts a 0630hrs, and it ends around 2000hrs, (self-employed) so cry me a river about “Go to work in the dark, come home in the dark”.

That is my (and a LOT of business owners’) NORMALITY. We start working before most people drag their sad butts out of bed, and are still working while so many are complaining about how brutal the commute was while sitting down to dinner with the kids.
