Is the only benefit to fall the one hour of sleep on a Sunday followed by 26 weeks of darkness and depression? Who is down that bad in sleep to prefer that?

Fall Back = short term benefit for long term misery
Spring Forward = short term annoyance for long term joy

passing the bill to nix DST is one of the few truly bi-partisan actions that Congress could've passed to make like 90% of the nation happy, so sad that that fizzled out a couple years ago

Surely you mean permanent daylight savings right? I would go to war against eliminating it and having an hour less daylight in the summer

A weird amount of people, this poll's results are reassuring so far but I feel like I'm always pulling my hair out on this one and against pro-Fall Back people. It's absurd. There's nothing worse than getting out of work at 5pm and it's pitch black

There is no long term joy when it comes to daylight savings.
