DST is a pain in the ass for organising TTRPGs online, fucking nowhere does it at the same time, some places don't do it at all, every spring and autumn it's like 50:50 if people are an hour late or early no matter how much reminders and double checking happens

it gives me a headache from half the world away all the time even though i live in a place that doesnt do it. genuinely why is it still even a thing all the benefits are.... kinda Dubious At Best

It's good for business, but we can't have year-round DST because in the wintertime too many schoolkids were being hit by cars

........ ,you think that could be fixed by just adjusting the school schedule and not time itself ?!?!?!?!

Well, then parents need to adjust their schedules for after-school pickup and activities and they'd need to change school bus drivers' schedules and the work schedule of everyone who works at the school, and 4.8% of the US works at or for some kind of K-12 school, so that's in addition to parents, then there are all the teenagers who work and would need their work schedules adjusted...

I'd prefer permenant standard time tbh
