Daylight saving is supposed to save a huge amount of energy, and I am all for that…, but could we maybe still not do it?.. Maybe just hibernate for the winter…, save loads more energy and, yes, solved it … and…sleep 😁

Annoying part is it doesn't even save a huge amount of energy. Negligible amounts either way.

Costs money. Costs lives.
