This is the day we (in the north) start to hibernate for five months, right?

Sunset in #Edmonton today was 4:56 pm.

#DayLightSavingHell

One justification I've seen many times for the continued torture of #dst #daylightsavinghell is the supposed energy savings. In this day and age, does an extra hour really make any fucking difference as far as energy use is concerned?
The kids were hyped with the longer day today. Absolutely dreading tomorrow morning. Apart from waking up earlier myself tomorrow, I’ll have to drag the childer out of bed an hour earlier for school. #Spring #DaylightSaving #DaylightSavingHell #DaylightSavingTime #ClocksForward #Mastodaoine
I hate getting up in the dark all over again. It's not even that DST is such a bad idea. We just start it far too early. April? Sure. Early March? A disaster at Latitude 53. https://open.substack.com/pub/theline/p/jen-gerson-goddamn-dst?r=n483u&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=email #DST #DaylightSavingTime #DayLightSavingHell
Jen Gerson: Goddamn DST

Why do we do this?

The Line
It's Spring 🌼🌱 forward ⏩

Daylight saving time... The account that pays no interest. Be it resolved that it be eliminated! #DayLightSavingHell
Really not on board with this whole sun setting before I leave work thing #DayLightSavingHell (also no idea why #metatext is rotating my image 90 degrees :/ )

My #cat has been howling for the last hour because he doesn't understand the concept of Fall Back while the #dogs are content to try and snooze with me.

At least someone in this house is sensible. #DayLightSavingHell

Damned you daylight saving time change, got me going to bed before 11… don’t you know I work hard for my revenge bedtime procrastination?!
