 Daylight savings is the stupidest thing ever 
 “Only a white man would believe you could cut a foot off the top of a blanket, sew it to the bottom, and have a longer blanket.” - attributed to a Native American. https://image.nostr.build/1936eb925c7039619b61abebc9308576c78d3c7528810a67b01cd6b58e4c7961.jpg  
 When it was first implemented the governor decided to meet the farmers and ask their opinion. One of those people was my grandfather. His response summed it up best when asked how he felt about it.

"Do you think my cows give a damn you changed the fucking clocks!? They only know its time to eat and because of you thats now 4 in the fucking morning!" 
 I thought it was a joke but is this serious? 
 I’m thankful Arizona doesn’t play that game.  Daylight shifting time would at least have been a more honest name.  Universal Time on a 24hr clock is the proper way to conceive of coordinated time. 
 Btc savings is better 😉 
 It is just for retarded countries, nobody else cares 
 There's no daylight savings stupid time in Arizona.

 Some states in Australia brought in Daylight saving. Everyone found that their curtains started fading. Then the cows stopped producing milk, the hens stopped egg laying andT my aunties scones are nowhere near as yummy. Oh, the other thing, the sun stopped rising and setting at the right time.
WTF?
