@Totalanimefan: Florida is stepping up with passing these "progressive" laws! What with gun control recently and getting rid of daylight savings time. That means that potentially, when I go to Florida this summer, I might have to change time zones. It's absurd (I'm in ontario).

I personally don't care what time zone it is so long as we're not made to switch like idiots.

@Totalanimefan: Most of the areas I've visited are tourist areas so I really don't know how people are politically inclined. The majority of people I met there were immigrants/seemed progressive so I thought the rest of the state was like that too. What do you think is swinging opinion there? Are younger people voting more?

Ah man, I hate daylight savings! It didn't really bug me much this year, but usually I just feel so tired because of losing that hour of sleep.

@Kaderin Triste: That's so me right now.
There are statistic somewhere showing that there are more traffic accidents and people are less productive at work for one week after the time switch. 2 weeks a year!

Glad it's not affecting you as much tho. More jealous than anything really. Haha.

@Totalanimefan: Wow, you're always living in basically tropical climates. Don't you miss snow? (I can imagine that you don't tbh. lol)
Does Cali do daylight savings too?

@Totalanimefan: Ah, not what I was thinking, but makes sense. It's a heavy snow day where I am actually. Kinda fun to walk on until I fall on my face.

I wonder how it's gonna work if a few out of 52 states decide to opt out of day light savings. It's so weird to imagine crossing a state border and being in a different time zone. Espcially if it's north and south. The whole thing is bonkers. I guess it's not as bonkers as in China where everyone officially uses beijing timezone, except people out west go about their normal business but all the hours are the wrong numbers. :vanora_upsidedown:

@KeirenKiren: I'm actually So scared of the 1:59-3am transition. Always sleep through it on purpose. How're ya holding up?

@Totalanimefan: Oops, I meant that the reason you have for not missing snow was not what I thought, but it makes sense. Sorry for making you misundertsnad twice. :vanora_xd: Have an apology moose.

@Eruca: Eh, didn't get too bad a sleep on Sunday for it but last night was terrible. 6.5h sleep but I tossed and turned a bit but also slept on a couch. I'm caffeinated right now and still sleepy ;u; (couch due to animal sitting for friends while they are gone but I slept over last night while they were still around as to be here when they left)

@Eruca: Lol it is hard.
I just am more productive and have more energy when i get up pretty early.
though I actually woke up later than I wanted but earlier than yesterday so that gives bonus points.
I wanted to get up at 8am today but my alarm hasn't been going off at all the past two days. :vanora_angry:
