    TIL high schools kids in the US are expected to get to class before 8am which...... sounds like a sick joke at the expense of literally everyone involved

    Exactly — I learned about start times by reading about the last time the US tried permanent DST and kids kept getting hit by vehicles because they were going to school so early, in the dark, clearly a) struggling to see, and b) tired as hell???

    I can't think of a good reason for the schools to set it at this time — getting out early isn't convenient for kids/parents either. Also forces the Cassies of this world to get up at an even more ungodly hour to do their makeup/exfoliation routines when they hit their Maddy era

    .@McFaul just now on BBC Newshour after a Russian gov spokesman, questioning ‘nonpartisan’ reporting “If this was Sept 1st 1939 would you put a member of the Nazi party on the air?..It’s disinformation that’s been broadcast to the world & I’m not sure that’s an ethical position”
