I try not to make these Sunday posts about things I don’t like, but I can make this work, I think.

I absolutely loathe Daylight Saving Time (more than I loathe the people who stick an “s” on the end of Saving; that’s not the name). It’s an anachronistic practice that has no practical use in the 21st century. Just stick to one time, preferably Standard Time, which is more in sync with the body’s natural clock. Continually changing the time really does a number on people, especially the DST change in which we lose an hour for no good reason (those of us with chronic insomnia and other health issues that are managed on a schedule really curse the change).

The people who want to use DST year-round obviously have no knowledge of the time in the 1970s that that was tried (I was too young to have any clear memories of it, and the experiment only lasted 10 months).

Still, let’s look at the bright side. For a lot of us, the clocks in our vehicles will finally be correct again. And we’ll get to see a lot of confused critters wondering why the hoomins are up early (cranky as hell) and feeding them at the wrong time. Now they’re gonna have to adjust their schedules so that they can still smack you in the face at 5 a.m. for their breakfast. Seriously unfair.
