I feel subtly sleepier as sunlight grows seasonally scanter.
Permanent Daylight Saving Time—a mandate to wake an hour early all winter—would not help.

No. Permanent DST injured schoolchildren when last trialed in New Hampshire, and it cost lives in other states. Only permanent Standard Time can last safely.
This is why we should run on daylight savings time year round...

That would put January sunrises as late as 8:18, not good for safety or health. Doctors recommend standard time instead.
Sleep doctors’ orders: Use standard time 365 days a year
It’s time again for clocks to “spring forward” to daylight saving time. Learn why physicians are saying that tradition should stop.

Ideally, being off mean solar time by 30 min-1 hour is best for our circadian rhythm, but as you can see from the US gerrymandered time zones, it is quite skewed.
I lived western Michigan where it should be in central time. When DST kicked in, we were thrown off even more. It's not about purity.

Daylight Saving Time was created by lobbyists for golf and shopping. The majority of Americans oppose it, and the plurality support permanent Standard Time (not permanent DST).

Permanent DST would darken most states’ mornings past 8am for 3+ months, past 8:45am for 1+ weeks. Schoolchildren, outdoor workers, service personnel, and commuters need Standard Time’s morning sunlight most.

i love that meme that shows that basically you can’t move summertime into winter and vice versa. ppl think permanent standard time means permanent 5 pm sunsets which isn’t true. they don’t actually like daylight savings even if they think they do. what they like is summer

“Apocalypto” (2006) features a total solar eclipse as a plot point. It includes a full moon several hours later, which is astronomically impossible. Solar eclipses require alignment of sun and moon; they only occur during the “new” moon phase.
