Do you like Daylight Savings Time?

[kayleee]

It's great it gives me more time to farm

 

[Llust]

it has it's benefits. during the month before daylight savings, while im doing my morning routine, i always think i have lots of time just because it's still dark out, meaning i dont check the clock as often. that usually ****s me up when i try arriving to school on time

 

[Byngo]

Initially, no because I lose a precious hour of sleep. but after sunday I don't mind daylight lasting longer

DST screws up everyone's circadian rhythm. It leaves you with exhausted workers and students, overall lowering everything's efficiency for several days, even weeks, while everyone's trying to readjust.

There's also the issue of more people having to drive to work in the dark mornings while still being tired, which is dangerous. And apparently, the extra stress of losing an hour in daylight savings is enough to increase the rate of heart attacks during DST's first couple weeks.

Also, this article says that the change in energy consumption during DST is pretty much just a 1% difference, much less than what a lot of people think.

I really don't like daylight savings time. But I do have to admit that I love the sunshine...

so, which countries even have DST?

 

[tybalt_cake]

I like how it gets dark til' 7pm but i hate how 6am feels like 4am ._.

 

[quietly-stuttered]

ehh I never really cared for it. kinda find it pointless, but it is what it is. -w-

Its part of life on Earth. Like it or not, you're gonna get it.

The whole world doesn't participate in everything America does.

Like others have said, the "extra" hour of sunlight is nice, but I'd rather just keep the clocks the same. It just doesn't make sense to keep up with something so arbitrary, especially since it's not the standard for the world.

 

[Kirbystarship]

It is okay. The sunshine is nice. I lose 1hour of sleep that doesn't help that I have a hard time sleeping.

 

[ZetaFunction]

No, I really dislike it. It means going throughout the house and resetting all the clocks that don't automatically adjust themselves to the right time. Plus, it sometimes gets a little confusing if you're used to the old time.

Not even every US state bothers with stupid DST. We should all do away with it, to be honest.

I love having the sun go down later but I hate it when it ends in November it's so dark all the time.

 

[Jay363]

I hate having to lose an hour of sleep lol, and it seems pretty useless to me

 

[Lykus]

I can't stand it being dark in the mornings when I get up for school.... It's so unnatural to wake up when the sun isn't coming up :/
That's the only thing I dislike about it. It just makes me feel so tired.

But honestly, it's useless. We should just leave it one way or the other. The reason it started was for farmers, and unfortunately not many people live like that anymore, so there's no reason for it at all now.

 

[Saylor]

I don't mind it so much after I get used to it. I like the extra hour of sunlight, I'm just not crazy about losing that hour of sleep

 

[pika62221]

No, mainly because it's just an hour, an hour lost in the morning! Sunrise comes an hour later just so sunset can come an hour later? The days will naturally get longer as we get into June, we don't need to start extending the evening as early as March!!!

 

[helloxcutiee]

I voted yes but then again.. I really do like gaining that extra hour of sleep when it ends so idk. All I know is that my sleep schedule is messed up now. Lol

 

[riummi]

i dont really like waking up and its all dark outside :/

 

[Alienfish]

Whatever, I just have to remember to set back the clocks that doesn't do it automatically.
