"Human writing often includes some clunky phrases, like this passage from Cormac McCarthy's Blood Meridian, caused by the author's aversion to punctuation: 'As well ask men what they think of stone.'"

Independent Institute
Make Year-Long Standard Time the Nationwide Standard Again
By William F. Shughart II
March 4, 2026

I’m one of the many Americans who hate being forced to time-shift twice a year. After only four months on standard time, daylight saving time returns with a vengeance on Sunday, March 8, when 2 a.m. abruptly becomes 3 a.m.

Only residents of Arizona (with the exception of those living on the land reserved for the Navajo Nation, which is compelled to follow Washington’s timekeeping edicts), Hawaii, Guam, Puerto Rico, and other outlying U.S. territories will not have their body clocks jolted by time suddenly β€œspringing forward” one hour.

Public opinion has been slowly turning against the twice-yearly ritual of moving the clock hands forward and backward. The main question nowadays is, what is to be done, policy-wise?

Most people don’t realize that standard time, as its name implies, was the year-round custom in the United States (and most of the world) until 1918…

β€œStandard Time was year-round until WWI… Permanent Daylight Saving Time was a serious blunder in 1974… Days lengthen and shorten over the year no matter what… Stop the stupid ritual…”

Local opinion: Arizona Republicans want to make our children sick We have a vested interest in protecting our communities and everyone in them. β€œMedical freedom” is the antithesis of community.

The idea of β€œmedical freedom” weighs one parent’s decision to refuse vaccines as more important than another’s decision to protect their own children from contagious, vaccine-preventable diseases”.

Reminder that Israel has the largest skin bank in the world, because these people who are obviously indigenous to the Levant get skin cancer at record rates from their indigenous sun. The donated skin is of course all Palestinian skin. Donated. Of course.

Reminder:

Your well-being is a priority, and you are committed to nurturing it.

You believe in the power of empathy and compassion to create a better world.

You deserve the same kindness you give to others, and you extend that kindness to yourself.

Read that again.

I'm proud of you.

NEW: Federal judges have spent months ordering ICE to give detainees a chance for release in bond hearings.

Now, they're worried that the bond hearings themselves β€” conducted by Executive Branch immigration judges β€” are a farce.
