IMPORTANT: No I am not leaving X (Twitter)… I’m playing on sticking around until it falls or whatever happens first. So while we wait to see what happens, feel free to follow me on Bluesky on either of my accounts (or both)

The Sony Psy Op is real, don't believe these Grifting Shills. Continue to fight with your wallets!

NO DISC 💿 NO BUY

[Ghost Of Babylon @KindredBlade]

Sony can take away digital licenses at any time. Stay vocal and keep fighting for physical discs.

Whoops 😅

[ABC News @ABC]

Subaru of America is recalling more than 541,000 of its Crosstrek, Forester, and Ascent SUVs due to an inaccurate label attached to the vehicles. https://t.co/kq1Wk7Xjdr

Make Standard Time permanent.

Permanent DST was tried in 1974 and it failed. I am fine with the sun “rising” early in the morning. Blackout curtains are a thing lazy people forget exist.

Then, while y’all are at it, pass a balanced budget and quit racking up the debt.

@OxfordYazuka @profstonge Umm… last I checked, it’s usually dark outside by the time elementary school kids are going to school and starts getting lighter by the time school starts for them and high school kids are going to school. So, unless you have a solution… Standard Time is the way to go

[Nate @NateLar_]

@J_D_Sarfati3 @profstonge I should mention as well, same goes for any other state that also have border cities

[Nate @NateLar_]

@J_D_Sarfati3 @profstonge Only way I’d be on board with North Dakota making the change or Minnesota making the change is if the other state does the exact same thing. If Minnesota decides to do year round Standard Time, then the North Dakota should also do year round Standard Time

[Nate @NateLar_]

Not a bad idea to be honest

[Democrats Deliver @DemzDeliver]

🚨 Democrats have introduced a bill to ban ultra-bright headlights that blind drivers on the road.

[Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon @RepMGS]

Permanent daylight saving time comes with serious health and safety concerns.

[Tyler Roney @TylerJRoney]

Standard Time > Daylight Saving Time

[Eric Sorensen @ERICSORENSEN]

NGL, this is gonna suck so bad. I voted against it because I can hear the complaints already.

[Nate @NateLar_]

@bigasswillie @svdate Even though changing a clock has no effect… still doesn’t change the fact that sunrise during the winter if we have year-round daylight savings time is going to be later. Besides, there’s not a whole lot of options during the winter anyway, so keeping DST would be pointless

[Nate @NateLar_]

@RTower39 @Caraloveslife1 @svdate Even though that’s true, pretty sure they won’t like the below zero temperatures & the wind chills that make it feel like Antarctica

[Nate @NateLar_]

@llbuythat @BritaEngh @svdate Even though that’s true during the winter, I’m quite certain if they really need to… they can arrange something with a friend/family member to give them a ride home. If they can’t arrange something… get them a bus pass and tell them what route & bus stop they need to get home

[Nate @NateLar_]

@psttome86 @svdate Okay and? I hated that it was dark at 5pm as well, however I’d rather keep Standard Time year round considering there’s nothing much to do during the winter. If that means we get an earlier sunrise in the summer, I’d be fine with that

[S.V. Dáte @svdate]

Stupid, stupid bill.

Kids in northern states, particularly in places further east in their time zones, will be walking and waiting for the morning bus in the dark.

If changing your clock is so burdensome, fine. Go to year-round standard time.

[Nate @NateLar_]

Yeah... about that, I'd rather have an earlier sunrise in the summer rather than a later sunrise in the winter

[Tyler Roney @TylerJRoney]

The House passed the Sunshine Protection Act 308-117 and now goes to the Senate. This Bill would make Daylight Saving Time permanent.

What does that look like for the area if it were to pass in the Senate?

Here’s the latest sunrises across the Midwest:

[Jason DeRusha @DeRushaJ]

This is not what I asked our Minnesota House members to pass today, but if they can do this… they can do AM #DependOnAM

[GTAman 💿 @GTAman51]

Good morning everyone. Wishing you all a beautiful day.

Except @Sony @PlayStation

Speaking of which, #NoDiscNoBuy is trending again, don't let up guys. We must keep the pressure on.
