Hate daylight savings? New time zone proposal:

Sunrise is at 7 AM.
That's it.

Yes, the new time zones will be very thin. Yes, it won't work very well at very high latitudes. Yes, you will be constantly having to specify which time zone you scheduled something in. Yes, most days won't actually be 24 hours long anymore. Yes–okay actually this wasn't such a great idea.

US President endorses bill to lock the clocks in current Daylight Savings Time

The days the clock changes always mess me about for a day or two, not ideal

Not being a morning person I'm a big fan of daylight savings though despite the hassles it causes

I propose a compromise solution that could be a win win for most

I suggest we abolish the timezone in the Eastern States and all move to the Central Australian timezone

Daylight savings could be abolished, on the Eastern States we would get 30 mins all year round. South Australia would miss out but have the advantage of being in the same timezone as the Eastern States

Western Australia would need to figure out what to do but maybe they could come back 30 mins as well so it was just an hour gap all year round

You know it makes sense

IMPORTANT REMINDER!!!!! 🇦🇺⚠️💊

If you live in Australia and take strictly scheduled medications, tomorrow is end of DST. We go back one hour. This means that if your dosing schedule is not set one hour earlier before you go to bed tonight, you will be taking meds one hour later tomorrow.

For me, this is a critical problem that, if left unnoticed and unaddressed, leads to (usually) a week or more (up to a month) of unpleasant consequences and distressing existence.

Did the right thing last night before getting into bed; dropped my clock-radio back an hour, ready for the overnight end of #DaylightSavings for another year.

Woke up this morning to discover proof of widespread incompetence:

• stupid fruitphone clock seems to have forgotten all about DS, & even worse, now has the day wrong!
• foolish #RadioNational news gave incorrect time-call by an hour [honestly, those peeps!]
• further foolish #RadioNational then inexplicably played their Saturday pgm line-up instead ofc of the proper Sunday one
• dopey Pooter's caught this disease of patheticality & is also living in the past

I'm a patient peep, & don't like to unnecessarily embarrass peeps by drawing undue attention to their uselessness & incompetence, so i shall benevolently give them all a day's grace to see if they all pull up their socks. Otherwise, it shall be stern letters of complaint!

Anyway, gotta go, wanna catch the latest #TheSundayShot now.
