Daylight Savings Begins In The Morning at 2 AM

Hello everybody, tonight standard time ends and a new 2021 daylight savings time begins early in the morning of March 14, 2021. I had no idea that it started early this year. Maybe the Federal Government will phase standard time out, who knows...

Daylight Savings Time Begins For 2021

So, don't forget to move the clocks and timepieces up/forward one hour.

One less hour to sleep tonight, whoopee!

Don't need to worry about that in beautiful Arizona.

Yeah, I saw that on the map. I sometimes wish we didn't do it or at least stay on one time standard or the other. 'bout the time I gets used to one, its time for another...

Very nice to remind people, etc, but as this is a site for intelligent paranoids, it occurs to me that throwing off the circadian rhythms of most of the country twice a year and making it so that so many will have to think about what the heck the time is or isn't, has a happy side-effect of keeping the herd off-balance and divided.

I'll go back to fortifying my bunker, now.

Remember folks, daylight saving time can KILL!

The time change happened hours ago in our house, that way we get our required amount of sleep, other wise we lose an hour since I get up at seven thirty every morning and the wife gets up around nine thirty....she does not need to sleep till ten thirty.

What happens to all of the daylight that's saved ?

Luckily, these days your phone just automatically corrects itself, so it’s not something you really need to plan for anymore.

Back in the day though, pretty sure I used to miss it every single time... fricken rock up to work either an hour late or early.

I wake up when the rooster crows. It's all the same day.
Except Tuesday.
No hot dogs on Tuesday.

But not yet in England.
It just means that ATS will be showing me the wrong time for the next couple of weeks.

The government gets to keep it. After they tax it of course.

With the lockdown thing happening, I haven’t had a regular sleep pattern. I slept from 9 am to 11 am this morning just because it was the weekend. When all was “normal”, I would be all messed up and angry at government officials! [ETA: For the time change thing]

Now I wake up at 2am just to watch cartoons and nod off the until I have to wake up!! Ah, the Land of the Midnight Sun already has me screwed up!

Welcome to my world, Children of the Lockdown!!

Me too.

I've totally flipped and gone all feral vampire. I try to stay up for a day to reset and end up nodding off at 9 a.m. and springing awake at 4.

I almost feel like getting an office job or something so I have to conform to the... er, the reality of our lately unreal seeming planet... but nah.

Blue blockers, walks, hot baths, strange teas, "mellow"-tonin, bad TV, boring docs, a tumbler of "Very Old Barton" or a funny, newly legal cigarette and ... still wide awake and restless at 2 a.m.

Oh well, at least we're not missing anything.
