\"\"Yahoo<\/a> \u2013 orange guy vows to end daylight savings time, citing it as \u2018inconvenient\u2018 and \u2018very costly\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n

I don\u2019t hide the fact that I\u2019m not a fan of the orange guy, or really any politics for that matter, but especially since I had children, I\u2019ve always bemoaned how much I loathe daylight savings, and would tongue-in-cheek say that I would support anyone who worked in favor of eliminating it.<\/span><\/p>\n

All because some farmers in like 1069AD felt it was too dangerous to be out doing their shit in the pitch darkness of an early morning, the whole world had to deal with this bullshit concept.\u00a0 Don\u2019t get me wrong, farmers and agriculture are undoubtedly important to the functionality of civilization, but I feel like there have been enough studies done throughout modern times that have debunked the real need for it in the grand spectrum of things.<\/span><\/p>\n

Clearly, those who are not in agreement of the lack of necessity of daylight savings are not parents, or apparently, rich white 1%-ers whom seem to be the ones trying to justify the elimination of it in, citing it as a hinderance to earning potential.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I don\u2019t get to capitalize on the bonus hour, because I have young children who don\u2019t know what daylight savings is, and neither do their circadian rhythms are, so it usually ends up as a morning where they naturally wake up at 6:45 am because their bodies think it\u2019s 7:45 am, with the difference is that my phone has adjusted for the hour change, and I\u2019m getting up at the same time they are, with the difference is that breakfast is not ready, I haven\u2019t had coffee or a bathroom break, dog hasn\u2019t eaten or gone out, and it\u2019s just a colossal shitshow that takes days of adjustment.<\/span><\/p>\n

And then the spring forward, not only am I exhausted from losing an hour, the kids are tired and groggy from losing theirs, and everyone has a miserable day, capped off with the fact that there\u2019s school and work the following day and it\u2019s no longer the life where I can just sleep in on every single weekend day of my life like I used to prior to having children.<\/span><\/p>\n

Screw the farmers, and parents who are afraid of their kids having to stand at bus stops in the darkness, need to work with their communities and neighborhoods to improve infrastructure, or have better thought out locations for bus stops and use their heads and common sense to get out of the way of moving vehicles.<\/span><\/p>\n

All I\u2019ve always said is that I don\u2019t care if we stay in daylight savings or spring forward, I honestly don\u2019t know the official designation between the two, I just want to outright eliminate the shifting of an hours twice a year bullshit, and never have to deal with it again. And if it makes me an asshole to stand on the side with those arrogant rich white fuckheads, so be it, because I fucking hate daylight savings and want it gone as much as they do.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
