    I'm seriously thinking about boycotting this shit. I just have to remember, any appointments I have are on Atlantic Ocean Time. If I can do that I can just carry on as is.

    yeah, let's not set the clocks back, so we can listen to all the whiners whine even louder when they realize that means 10:30 openings on pow mornings.

    For the second year in a row, completely by chance, I'm spending the end of daylight saving time paragliding in the desert. It doesn't matter what the clock says, I wake up at sunrise to launch when the wind starts blowing in.

    If this year is anything like last year, I'll be confused when I get home and see those clocks.

    The average utard has zero concept of this. But it’d be a huge problem for the ski industry.

    fyi, DST was created by a bug guy, entomologist; so he could have more daylight to study bugs after work and was eventually accepted; so those who like it are following a bug guy.

    tonight denver and san fran will have the same time for an hour, nice example of the farce of DST.

    Funny you mention that. My daughter has been forced to do classes remotely for UNB Fredericton. Her schedule is in Atlantic TZ. She feels bad for her classmates from out west, especially the ones with 8:30 AM classes.

    I've got one digital clock that I can't figure out how to change. You shouldn't need the owner's manual to set a goddamn clock. They figured out in the 14th century.

    I fucking love this day. Slept in, went straight from bed to the couch and snuggled with the kiddo for a while watching a show, then nursed a cup of coffee, then made a dank breakfast, cleaned up, and it's still barely 9 am.

    Same with my G-shock watch. Supposed to reset with the mother clock in CO Springs but that never happens. And the print in the owners manual is so fucking small I need a magnifying glass to read it. So I just leave it set at Arizona Time.

    I used to be with a women a proffesional who never changed clocks becuz she knew if the clock she was lookng at was wrong and so would just self adjust instead of changing the clock A buddy of mine used a some kind of professional i think an accountant who never bought a new calender she just moved the days around

    Now is our chance BC. Excuse to not change was in part to keep in lockstep with the western states keeping our economies aligned. Well, that all for shit now anyway, so let’s just not change this Sunday. Let take this opportunity to flip the southern clock fuckers the bird!

    Well hang on a tick ask California voted to do away with daylight savings time and the fucking politicians did not enact the proposition. What the hell's going on with that?

    Never in U.S. history has the public chosen leadership this malevolent. The moral clarity of their decision is crystalline, particularly knowing how Trump will regard his slim margin as a “mandate” to do his worst. We’ve learned something about America that we didn’t know, or perhaps didn’t believe, and it’ll forever color our individual judgments of who and what we are.
