Keep this forever and just skip summer

I don't care. I am totally fine with switching time

I'm living in a shitty, unsafe area. DST in the fall means it gets darker sooner, not safe to go out, get stuff done. The pepper spray comes out earlier. By December, gets dark at 430pm, and I'm like wtf, seriously?

Yes we should stay in summer time. It was already getting dark super early and now it's dark at like 5pm

Honestly no, though I really think this is a factor of how close to a pole you are. It's hard enough to deal with the dark coldness, not getting bright til like 10am would be even worse.

The clock doesn’t yet say it’s winter time, but Saturday hit 83°, like summer, Sunday rained all day, like Spring, and Thursdaywill be our first day below freezing, like winter

I have not noticed a difference yet...

I have a severe circadian rhythm disorder- yes absolutely lol, daylight savings destroys me every year

My time hasn't changed yet, but I'm not looking forward to it

DST in the winter would suck so much. Think of all the worsened seasonal depressive disorders (aka winter depression). If the alternative would mean an increase in suicide numbers I will gladly endure the annoyance of changing my clocks twice a year.

Then again if we could abolish DST - yeah I'd be down for that. But too many people think getting rid of standard time will make our winters more like our summers. But it won't. It will make them worse. Our biology isn't meant to wake up three hours before sunrise.
