Nineteen states have passed legislation to make daylight saving time permanent. But those laws won’t take effect until Congress makes it legal. And the medical community sees one major problem.

Changing routines like that would be a major pain in the ass.
I’d much rather change the clocks than try to retrain my entire routine twice a year.
I mean… You do retrain your routine twice a year when the clocks change. If it weren’t for that you could do it more gradually to make it easier. Maybe 15 mins earlier/later a day.
Not really. My routine doesn’t change based on the clock, which is what matters. The same things happen at the same time every day. The time might be shifted, but it still occurs at the same clock time. If the clock time doesn’t shift, then you have to consciously remember things that used to start at 9 now start at 8, which results in a lot more confusion and disruption of schedule
You have to remember that the clocks change. How is that different to having to remember things start at 8 now?
My clocks all change automatically. My internal clock is so fucked up that it doesn’t matter. There’s pretty much no manual intervention at all anymore and that works out great.
Changing starting times gets the worst of both worlds. Now everything (and I literally mean everything) is at a different time than it was a day before. Times for medications, times for pet feeding, times for work and the list just keeps getting longer.
At least with the system we have now the clock time of everything doesn’t change.
I see - you mean “the things you think about” don’t change. I meant your routine changes in that you shift “when” you get up each day when the clocks change.
