Detractors:>Morning sunlight is a necessity for resetting melatonin production and ensuring a predictable, high-quality sleep and recovery cycle. Proponents:>me like extra hourIf you’re out of the loop, the U.S. House of Representatives passed the Sunshine Protection Act (with over 300 votes), making DST permanent. It now goes to the Senate. Most sources are saying it has a 50% chance of passing, but its passage through the House shocked everyone. This will have serious, wide-spread health effects on most of the country. A lot of medical associations are opposed to it. Morning sunlight is a necessary component of normal human physiology. Most people get it on their drive to work, or during the first unproductive part of their day. It both suppresses and triggers melatonin production. When you awaken, melatonin is extremely high. Sunlight actually triggers the pineal gland to stop production of melatonin, which breaks down after 30-60 minutes. Cells in the retina trigger the SNC (the brains internal clock) to reset. So there’s no getting around this; all humans need morning sunlight to reset their rest and recovery cycle. A huge chunk of the U.S. won’t see sunrise until 9am in winter.

>>77397442First of all, it should be permanent normal time, not permanent Daylight Savings Time. DST makes it so that 1 o'clock is midday and midnight. 12 is supposed to be midday and midnight.>But businesses would have to adjust!So? Let them fucking adjust. It's not that hard.But yes, time should be standardized so that your sleep schedule isn't disrupted twice a year.>A huge chunk of the U.S. won’t see sunrise until 9am in winter.That problem isn't going to be fixed by fucking with clocks. The problem is the 9-5 work schedule that doesn't change with the seasons and frankly isn't necessary for most jobs.
ITT: people who are educated stupid about natures harmonious 4-day time cube
The pineal gland follows the principles of 4-days-in-one! All-one! All-one! Permanent DST will nuke your testosterone and make you a sissy girly man! You need to sun your balls with the very first rays of dawn sunlight, like extra virgin olive oil! >t. Gene Ray, cubic
>>77397513I’m kind of flattered that you thought this was AI/ChatGPT. The stuff it spits out is way better written and organized than what I come up with. Not an argument, btw. >>77397616>Savings>plurallolBut yeah, people who want permanent DST are like children who want candy for dinner.“Candy shouldn’t be eaten for dinner because of these actual, legitimate reasons.”“Yeah but I like candy so I’m just going to eat it for dinner.”*gets a stomach ache and diabetes*They couldn’t learn from their siblings who did it in 1974. But basically I’m just not going to do it (the dormant DST)I know, I knowUuuggghhhI’m sorryI’m just going to start my day an hour earlier than everyone else is all!Ahahahahahahaha!
>>77397668>Savings>pluralYeah I don't care what it's called. It's gay either way.

I give a fuck. I spend half my work schedule on nightshift waking up for work in the dark, no faggy sun to gently caress my pineal gland until I wakey. I'll gladly take the extra hour of evening daylight.

>>77397442I don't give much of a fuck how early it starts getting dark in the afternoon/evening, but I fucking HATE having to wake up before dawn. Needing to get out of bed when it is still dark outside is absolute cancer.
>>77397442DST never made sense to me.>Force everyone to change their clocks rather than people just getting up at a different time for different parts of the yearShit never made sense.
