Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Changing routines like that would be a major pain in the ass.
I’d much rather change the clocks than try to retrain my entire routine twice a year.
I mean.. You do retrain your routine twice a year when the clocks change. If it weren't for that you could do it more gradually to make it easier. Maybe 15 mins earlier/later a day.
Not really. My routine doesn’t change based on the clock, which is what matters. The same things happen at the same time every day. The time might be shifted, but it still occurs at the same clock time. If the clock time doesn’t shift, then you have to consciously remember things that used to start at 9 now start at 8, which results in a lot more confusion and disruption of schedule
You have to remember that the clocks change. How is that different to having to remember things start at 8 now?
My clocks all change automatically. My internal clock is so fucked up that it doesn’t matter. There’s pretty much no manual intervention at all anymore and that works out great.
Changing starting times gets the worst of both worlds. Now everything (and I literally mean everything) is at a different time than it was a day before. Times for medications, times for pet feeding, times for work and the list just keeps getting longer.
At least with the system we have now the clock time of everything doesn’t change.
I see - you mean "the things you think about" don't change. I meant your routine changes in that you shift "when" you get up each day when the clocks change.
