Anytime I see something like the Safe Children and Everyone Who Wants One Gets a Puppy Act I know my life is about to get worse
any bill around internet monitoring and censorship : saving the precious children from horrible paedophiles act of 20xx
any bill for actually taking care of the physical and intellectual well being of children : bill 50906-3
“Wow, you want to FEED kids to keep them in good health? I’d rather spy on everyone in the hopes of catching someone under 18 accessing 18+ material. That’s where REAL good health comes from.”
They care about their SPIRITUAL health. Physical health doesn’t matter compared to an eternity of hellfire, you heathen.
They also have to have a cute acronym, so it fits neatly into a headline:
- FAPS (Free Affordable Pepsi Soda) Act
- ANAL (Anyone who Needs it Always gets Licorice) Act
- BROJOB (Best fRiends Only Jack-Off Best friends) Act
- PUPPY (Pee Under People’s Pants Yearly) Act
“The Sunshine Protection Act”, oh is this some bill against pollution or something. “This bill makes daylight savings permanent.”
Oh fuck off, that’s too grandiose of a name for that. I mean I want that, but you aren’t protecting sunshine …
I don’t have a problem with that act having a grandiose name because axing daylight savings time is something I can totally get behind no matter where I am.
I always thought it was weird, that the one argument for Day Light Savings is that we get more sun. Someone can correct me, if I am wrong. I’m pretty sure the amount of daylight isn’t magical dictated by clocks and time created by humans.
Abolish day light savings time. Stick to standard time like the rest of the world does.
So like, in January, the sun sets at say around 5:15pm. With DST active, it would set at 6:15pm.
So there is more daylight after work or school gets out for most people.
Either way, the time change seems like it’s not useful in today’s age, so we should pick one.
Instead of playing games with clocks, why don’t we just do things at different times?
