I'm convinced that people unconsciously associate DST w/ warm weather, longer hours of sunlight, growing season & all that goes with it.
If they stop to think about it, they'll realize that warm weather, longer hours of sunlight, & growing season happen regardless of the clock!

Many states reported increases in accidents (some fatal), and a few also saw increases in sexual assault, when permanent DST was last tried. Permanent Standard Time is safer. #DitchDST #SaveStandardTime

BC almost got it right. Putting an end to time change is overdue, but permanent DST is not the way. It has been attempted in the past and overturned. Keeping Standard Time year round is the healthier and safer option.

We appreciate alternatives to permanent Daylight Saving Time, but permanent Standard Time is still better for health and simpler for commerce! #DitchDST #SaveStandardTime thehill.com/homenews/nex...

I believe that it was installed after lobbying by convenience stores. Because people spend more money when it's light out. #SaveStandardTime #DaylightSavingTimeSucks

Permanent Daylight Saving Time is what Nixon tried, and it proved wildly unpopular. Clock switching was thereafter restored.
Permanent Standard Time is different: It scientifically is more healthful, and it historically lasts for decades! #DitchDST #SaveStandardTime

Interesting information on why time zones exist for anyone who doesn't understand:

"Before 1883, towns across the nation set their own times by observing the position of the sun, so there were hundreds of local times."

“I just had a discussion with my husband about declaring our 3 acres Eastern Standard Time forever. We will NOT comply. We will keep our clocks the same. I realize this may become problematic for us but we can overcome.” #SaveStandardTime cucharo.substack.com/p/spring-ahe...

A picture of two clocks. For the clock on the left, there is a yellow sun at the “12” position, and overlain is the word “THIS”. For the clock on the right, there is a yellow sun at the “1” position, all numbers are rotated 30° counter clockwise, and overlain are the words “NOT THIS”.
Clocks have meanings. Keep high noon atop at 12! #DitchDST #SaveStandardTime

My humble take is, it's going to get dark earlier regardless and if we stop this antiquated back and forth with the clocks, we would more naturally adjust. #savestandardtime
