        I thought we had voted to end it. Did I dream that?

        Googling it, it looks like it never got all the way through the legislature. Ugh…

          Mitch McConnel shelved it during Trump’s presidency, iirc or maybe that’s just a fever dream.

          My state has already passed legislation to stay year round in DST, if only our freaking Congress would approve it.

      It’s not so bad once you get used to it (and blackout curtains); it’s the way it is here in Japan. Thankfully, we don’t faff about with time changes here and my body’s happier for it.

      Personally I’m up at 5 anyway and my kid has to be up by 6 for school. But in a previous no kid life I wouldn’t prefer that either. Even within Eastern time zone there’s a difference between sunset times between a western edge in Kingston TN and Boston MA. No matter which way we go, someone is going to be dissatisfied.
