This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Great, with scientific evidence backing this we are fucked for ever getting this changed. What we really need is a rising passively racist influencer to get behind the idea to get any support in 2026.

Yep, we'll probably increase it to 6x a year in retaliation for those eggheads trying to tell us what to do. That'll show'em.

Better yet hopefully we can get a child rapist or two to support ending dst then Trump will mandate it via executive order

"The Hyperborean Medical Association recommends an end to DST as Vril and testosterone are both depressed if noon isn't at 12:00 on the equinox"

I've also heard from a very reliable source that when children have their sleep disrupted by an hour they are more likely to turn gay.
