Daylight Savings Time?

[wiredgeorge]

I recall back in the spring of t his year that the Senate, in an aberration of the two parties agreeing on something, had passed a plan to make the time change permanent so folks don't need to change clocks twice a year. What happened to that legislation? Did it go anywhere?

It’s on hold.

It's a threat to democracy.

My wife collects clocks.....I wind and pull chains on them every Sunday......

I freaking hate DST with a passion.................

Oh, and its racist fascist and maga ableism.

It will pass when pelosi and biden find a way blame it on Trump and take credit for fixing it.

The primary movers in the daylight saving movement are the golf and candy industries. The golf industry is said to have benefited by an additional $200 million in additional sales of golf clubs and greens fees, just from adding one additional month to DST; and the barbecue industry is said to have sold an additional $100 million in barbecues and charcoal briquettes. The extension of DST in 2007 into November was strongly supported by the candy industry, which sells a lot more Halloween candy when kids can spend an extra hour trick or treating before bedtime. It’s all about money.

I agree with your clock.

That’s one other thing I enjoyed while we lived in AZ. They don’t do DST time change there.

Senate passed it but the House claimed they had other priorities so it will die. The momentum was there in the spring but since the House pushed it off, nothing will be done. Plus you had those in the House still fighting over which way they wanted DST - spring forward one last time or fall back on last time.

Who the hell wants it? Everyone I know doesn't want to change the clocks. Stupid fucking politicians.

Our dog doesn't understand the concept of DST. This Sunday morning she will want to go out at her regular time. Doe anyone know how to reset the clock on a dog?

 

[skfullgun]

I have to explain to my sister, on a yearly basis, that we only change the clocks, and NOT the time the sun rises. Every year, she asks why we don’t “ease into it” over a week or two period…

It rates right up there with converting to metric, $1 dollar coins, killing the penny, and instituting mandatory term limits for politicians - a good idea that will never get anywhere.

They will auto-reset. In a month or two.

True.

Luna does, how else would she know 6:30 is time for the evening run? She wil stomp her paws and bark and point to the clock at 6:31. DST messes her up for a week or two

Had to put ours to sleep a while back. Old age. Lived a long and good life. So hard to do, though. Thankfully no long decline.

Miss him greatly.

Still look for him when we get home. And at 7:30 p.m when he wanted some treats every evening. Strange not to see him in his chair.

Or 4.
