I had an awesome and productive weekend and put to good use the extra hour of daylight. I have so missed CDT.

This is a really bad idea. The last time #PermanentDST was trialed—in the US in 1974—the trial had to be ended six months early because kids kept getting killed by sleep-deprived drivers. Granted, we should get rid of clock changes, but adopting permanent standard time is the far better choice as it lines up with our natural sleep cycle.

Correction: #California approved the idea of #PermanentDST in a ballot measure in 2018, but the legislature failed to pass the needed legislation.
Also, this is my new favorite Wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permanent_time_observation_in_the_United_States
Big news in #Cascadia: #BritishColumbia will switch to permanent #DaylightSavingTime. Clocks will change for the last time on March 8 and then will not switch back to #StandardTime in the fall.
Note that #WashingtonState, #Oregon, and #California have all passed similar laws to switch to #PermanentDST, but are blocked by federal law.

Do you hate having less than an hour to get outside stuff done after work? Hmmmm, if only there was a way we could save daylight time by adjusting our clocks. Hmmmm 🤔
