Opinion: Permanent daylight saving time sounds appealing until you realize your kids will board school buses in complete darkness all winter. indystar.com/story/opinion/…

LeBron James on the deciding factors for his next team: “You definitely look at fanbases wherever you may go and how they treat their team. What’s the legacy that’s been left there. You look at those factors but it’s not the deciding factor. I want to compete at a high level, join a franchise that shares the same model as myself. That’s practicing championship habits everyday… Being with a franchise and group of guys that has the same model of ‘we have to put the work in right here in September, October, and then what happens down the road will happen” (Via youtu.be/wKCDXbdRjE8?is…)

@SaveStandard Because “Standard Time” BLOWS CHUNKS, despite how “science supports that it’s healthier”: 4:30 - 5 PM sunsets in Winter and 4:30 - 5 AM sunrises in parts of the country during Summer SUCK.

I'm tired of being told that, to be a progressive, I now must swear allegiance to crazy ideas. I'm a strong Democrat, with a winning bipartisan track record. I'm rooted in progressive ideals and policies: criminal justice reform, Green New Deal, Medicare for All, free education, clean air and water. These are ideas I have fought for my entire adult life. But some people in groups like the DSA are pushing an agenda FAR outside those ideals. Supporting Hamas is not progressive. "No police, no prisons, no borders" is not progressive. Celebrating the murder of Israeli civilians is not progressive. These ideas are REGRESSIVE. If there were no police or prisons, if anyone in your neighborhood could do whatever they wanted, while politicians cheered on terror groups — would that represent PROGRESS to you? No, that would be a step back. Those are REGRESSIVE ideas. On the other hand, if everybody could see a doctor when they got sick, get a good, free education and breathe clean air — would that represent progress? Yes. Those are PROGRESSIVE ideas. They are NOT the same thing. And the difference matters. Some defend the far left by claiming they only want Nordic-style social democracy. If that were true, I might applaud them. I want those policies, too! But what does universal healthcare have to do with Hamas? With abolishing all law enforcement? With erasing all borders? With treating every wealthy person as a villain? Ideas matter. And these are terrible ideas. Right now, extremists are trying to sneak backwards proposals into our party, hoping mainstream Democrats are too frustrated with MAGA and the Democratic Party establishment to notice. But we see you. Yes, we want our Democratic Party to be a big tent. But we don’t need "party poopers. So STOP pooping in the punch bowl — and telling us the turds are ice cubes. They aren't. And we are smart enough to know the difference. 💩

@GuntherEagleman This may well be the first time I’ve ever agreed with you on something. But yes, he absolutely is. Undeniably.

We currently use DST for about 7.75 months of out 12. Moving to permanent standard time would mean much less light in the evening for huge portions of the spring and autumn as well as the summer. It would be horrific. We should either move to permanent DST, or do nothing.

The fact that nearly half of House Democrats voted against U.S. aid to Israel speaks volumes about how quickly the party is being taken over by radical anti-Israel leftists. Where are the Democrats of conscience who stood with Israel for so many years?

@TomCottonAR WHO CARES! NO ONE WANTS A DAMN SUNSET before/around 5 P.M. in Winter! Depression is OFF THE CHARTS during that season on “Standard” Time with early sunsets! Over time, humans WILL adjust as needed anyway. It’s not like we’re swapping literal day and night here. Unreal.

As someone who lives in a state with no DST, have you all considered getting up an hour earlier for the “extra” hour of daylight?

@Weeezin You reversed 1 and 2, but I will take number 3 as you placed it.

My current rankings on what I think we should do about the daylight savings debate: 1. Not change anything. Switching the clock is preferable to permanent standard time and I’m willing to compromise. 2. Permanent DST. I walked to school in the dark in winter my entire life. 3. Permanent Standard time. Would be depressing and terrible. My life always gets happier when we switch back to DST and I don’t want the sun rising at 4:30 in the morning in the summer.

@DerrickEvans4WV @TrashDiscourse That’s not even remotely close to reality, but thanks for trying. You might want to ask your buddy REPUBLICAN Senator Tom Cotton about why HE is allegedly going to lead the charge to derail it. Also, it’s on to the SENATE now, NOT the House. 🙄

US House voted to make daylight saving time permanent, sending the bill to the house. We all know there’s a Democrat judge ready to block it for some reason or another. @TrashDiscourse 🤣

The fight over daylight saving time is heating up after the House passed President Trump’s bill to stop Americans from changing their clocks twice a year. Supporters say permanent daylight saving time would end disrupted schedules, give families more evening sunlight, and boost businesses across multiple industries. But airlines are warning the change could ripple through aviation, impacting sunrise times, passenger schedules, crew and aircraft positioning, and coordination with global flight networks. Sleep experts are also pushing back, arguing permanent standard time is healthier than permanent daylight saving time because it better lines up with the body’s natural clock. @Grady_Trimble has more.
