@emptywheel Cannot even begin to get my head around why someone might actually like it.

@hollye_h I live at the far western side of ET. And I LOVE having light until night in summer. -
@emptywheel Umm, wouldn't you have it anyway? -
@hollye_h Nah. It'd stay light until 9:15 instead of 10:15. I should say that for years I played sports where DST meant spring practices.

@emptywheel I like the end result. I am just so tired todayyyy -
@JulieATate For some reason I've been waking up early (and dragging the grumpy spouse) the last several days. So I'm all good.

@emptywheel You don't have a kid to put to bed. -
@B_Amer True. But she should be at ultimate practice in the spring anyway. How else will she get a scholarship to UCSC for ultimate? -
@emptywheel I need to enroll her in Janine's lefty girls handler camp.

@emptywheel it's not the extra hour of daylight, it's the switching. If we like DST, we should just stay there. Switching helps nothing. -
@DavidOAtkins@emptywheel There *is* no “extra hour of daylight”. My (metro Seattle-Tacoma) sunrise-sunset grew by 3 minutes. It’s a myth. -
@John_de_Vashon But it's where the hour is that matters. I'd be happy if everything just switched permanently to later.
@DavidOAtkins -
@emptywheel@DavidOAtkins Yeah, me too. ‘course I sleep and rise entirely on my own schedule, so there’s that. No alarm clock anymore…

@emptywheel And, it's Daylight Saving Time, not Daylight Savings Time. If you're gonna support it, at least learn to spell it. -
@emptywheel I apologize, that came out a lot ruder than I intended. I was just being a pedantic jerk.
