If you appreciated getting an extra hour of sleep this morning, you can thank that we are back on normal Standard Time. Standard Time is closer to true solar time which doesn't get our Circadian Rhythm out of whack. DST, which just ended, is not good for our health, it's eight months of being forced to wake up an hour earlier. Many people don't seem to understand, however.
Celebrities, media, and some politicians are seemingly confused about what is the correct time to keep permanent. Senator Marco Rubio wants to keep the torturous DST permanent. Some misinformed celebrities who do not need clocks most of the time have even tweeted about ending the clock changing. And we should end it. The problem is that they are saying it now instead of in March when DST begins, and we are forced to be sleep deprived with all the health problems it causes. Don't rely on news media for accurate information on the subject. They seem to interchange and confuse one for the other.
It's very simple, normal Standard Time is good for us, and this should be the last time we change clocks. DST is bad, and we should ABOLISH it forever by not changing our clocks again this coming March 2022. Write your politicians who are confused on the subject and correct them. This is really an urgent matter which will reduce health costs henceforth. Think about it, but also act.
