When do we get to get off this nauseating merry-go-round?

It's true that the body asks for more sleep during winter, as if we were animals too that needed to hibernate a little ;)

We should just work shorter hours in the winter. This whole standardized 8 hour day thing is needlessly and arbitrarily rigid. It treats us like machines instead of human beings.

and one could say that it's safer to drive in the dark when you're rested and well awake rather than doing so when you're tired after a day of work (but I expect that there would be quite a lot of variability between people)

Well... keeping Summer time would make most people have to wake up and drive without sunlight. I don't think it would be very good to fight against seasonal infections :/

Over, and over, and over. It's the same here. I will happily take either over alternating between the two. It's the transition that is the costly part. "I wish that you were one or the other! But since you are like lukewarm water, neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth!"

Pedro Sanchez proposed the discussion again in the EU, so, "maybe" ;)

In 2019 they wanted to stop it but the issue was which time to keep? winter time or summer time? ;)
