With Daylight Savings once again coming up, it never fails for it to spark discussions about its purpose in modern times. People hate it widely while few seem to be okay with it and depending where you live, others don’t even know what the deal is.
Politicians have actually put it on the docket to be voted on, but seems to have lost traction. Quite frankly, this is an issue that should be done and over with. Just end it, but please end it when we have the clocks dialed back than forward, because I wouldn’t like time going faster than it already is.
I become media aware in the late 80s and everything was looking up. We were getting over racism and sexism, getting better at including other, especially well established, long-present cultures in TV and movies and at the grocery store. We had thrown away the attitudes of the past and we were going to move forward as a better society, diverse but still uniquely proud of who we all were and the various places we all came from. The Internet was going to give us all access to the sum total of human knowledge to the benefit of all.
You can see how that’s turned out so far.
I’m sorry, but you practically said you were living in a bubble for 40 years.
More or less gradual, continual bubble bursting since the start.
