If you care about children’s safety, you need to stop standing with Trump and continuing to support permanent Daylight Saving Time. Dark mornings—>Dangerous for school buses, dangerous for schoolchildren.

@savestandard.bsky.social An example, We're still on DST here near Santa Fe New Mexico USA, and on the day after the Fall solstice the sunrise was at approximately 7 am and the sunset at approximately 7 pm. Noon came 5 hours after sunrise and sunset came 7 hours after noon.

As a science communicator, nothing has prepared me for the confusion among some pro-DST folks. How do we gently explain that moving the clock hands does not move the sun - or turn 13 hours of daylight into 14?😅

There is no “Standard Daylight Time”. There is Standard Time (the clock set by the sun), and there is Daylight Saving Time (the clock set an hour fast).

The argument for DST is driven on profits. Studies have shown it has a negative impact on our health. We should join Arizona and Hawaii in permanent Standard Time. Study suggests most Americans would be healthier without daylight saving time med.stanford.edu/news/all-new...

Study suggests most Americans would be healthier without daylight saving time

According to a new analysis by Stanford Medicine scientists, changing clocks twice a year disrupts circadian rhythms, leading to higher rates of stroke and obesity.

The logical corollary is that schools start later. But then work needs to start later (which is good from a commute safety perspective too). Or....maybe just stay on Standard time so it all works out!

In “The Truman Show” (1998), the nearly full moon is seen close above the setting sun. At that lunar phase, the moon should have just risen in the opposite side of the sky. Astronomy class was apparently omitted from Truman’s school.

Screen still from “The Truman Show” (1998): The silhouette of two men on a hilltop watching a setting sun, with a nearly full moon not far above the sun.
