How the sunrise and sunset times would be affected by abolishing daylight saving time in the USA. Would you prefer to keep it or drop it? (files.catbox.moe)

The whole switching clocks thing is a mindfuck in Texas. Summer it’s daylight at 9 pm. Winter it’s dark at 5 pm. That’s a four hour spread exacerbated by the time change.

What's special about Texas? It's one of the lowest latitude states in the US, meaning there is less difference between summer and winter daylight hours compared to most of the country. If that's a mindfuck to you, try Minnesota. Or Alaska. Or even Kansas.
