Cue some rando reply guy justifying year round DST by saying, โ€œI prefer when the sun on Midsommar rises at 3:32 am instead of 2:32 am.โ€

The EU voted to abolish daylight saving time in 2019. However, we continue this stupid practice because some states want to stay on DST year round, while others want to stay on standard time year round.

The correct answer is standard time year round because:

1. Time is an illusion. Letโ€™s keep it simple.

2. Science says morning light is better for your health. npr.org/sections/health-shots/

Periodic reminder that legislation exists only for points scoring because the federal legislature will never approve year round DST. If this was serious, then it would be to , which we could do this week.

DST isn't for farmers. In fact, farmers want nothing to do with it.

Old saying about daylight saving time I learned from an Osage friend: "Only white people think you can cut a length off the end of a blank it and sew it to the other end of the blanket to get a longer day."

@maeve It's a start, but maybe we should stay on Standard Time given how far west our timezones already are and that DST costs us more in money and energy than standard does.
