My brain has decided to get a jump on the clock change coming up this weekend by resetting now.
Unfortunately my brain grew up in the tropics and has never really got the hang of daylight saving. It has, therefore, reset in the wrong direction.

The Curse of the #DaylightSavingTime has claimed a new victim: my daily #writever post. Luckily this morning I was up and watching, so I saved it from another catastrophic 60 minutes schedule shift. Phew!
Oh. Dammit.
I thought I had, but I didn't get 8 hours of sleep last night!
Curses and more curses.
I was wondering why I didn't feel ready to get up this morning.
Dear @Hedgewatchers we just realised that on a day shortened for one hour, due to #DaylightSavingTime, our humans have one hour less to serve us food We tried to help ourselves by catching mice, but are afraid that we did something wrong

At the time of this post, it's... 5:00 p.m. CEST. If your clock still says 4:00 p.m., you haven't yet set it forward for daylight saving time
But how is time actually made and what role does Einstein's theory of relativity play in it? This question is answered in this article on our online portal “Einstein Online”:

Europe goes into daylight saving time despite controversy.
Most Europeans woke up on Sunday clocks that jumped forward by one hour.
The twice-annual time change has long been contentious and was even voted against in an EU open consultation back in 2018.
“Every year I forget about daylight saving time and I’m completely shocked every time” — “Ogni anno mi dimentico dell’ora legale e sono completamente shockata ogni volta”
https://www.pinterest.com/pin/738801513888032129/Voi non avete idea di che trip, ma più che altro che palle gonfissime, il viaggio nel tempo di stanotte! Con questo fatto dell’ora legale, signora mia, mi sono completamente sballata… prevedibilmente, ma quasi inspiegabilmente. È come se il cambio d’ora, e quindi l’improvviso sbilanciamento dell’equilibrio spirituale tra orologi di tutta la casa (e di buona parte del mondo) e tempo del giorno reale dettato dalla rotazione della Terra attorno al Sole, fosse in grado di indurre uno sbilanciamento anche nella mia anima, che viene affetta negativamente pure se sto solo a dormire e non ho orari particolari da rispettare.
Quest’anno non mi è successo come lo scorso a dire il vero, nel senso che mi sono ricordata in anticipo del cambiamento, eppure sono stata fatta comunque: per qualche motivo mi sono svegliata alle 13:05. Tardissimo! Avevo in realtà messo la sveglia alle 9:59, e la Mi Band dice che sono stata una ventina di minuti sveglia in quel momento… eppure io non me lo ricordo affatto. Vabbè, zzz insomma.
Priests of #Antinous thank the #Druids who toiled tirelessly all night to move #Stonehenge stones forward one hour! Remember them the next time you complain about how inconvenient the time change is! #DaylightSavingTime #summertime in Britain and Europe. #TimeChange #SpringForward

I wish Finland would stop messing around with Daylight Saving Time (started today) and adopt “winter time” as the permanent standard.
It's the end of an "era"... the EU has not managed to fix the bug in their clocks which make them display the wrong time for half of the year and I no longer have the energy to keep the normal time all year (a)round.
For anyone not aware: As a self experiment I had all my devices use UTC+1 or the really cool time zone of Brazzaville called WAT since 2019 or so to not have to deal with summer time (daylight savings for USians) but I've run into too many technical issues (mostly with proprietary systems like Microsoft's and the DB) which just piled up and I also started to always calculate the time in my head anyways, especially to allow interaction with other people (which became even harder after corona restrictions were lifted) but also when alone so the mental stress just increased which in the current global situation doesn't help anyone... I just hope that the EU soon implements their plan to get rid of this stupid changing of the clock.
The most annoying thing is that I now have basically the same amount of clocks that can't change the time on their own as devices that do so I have to manually adjust them all :S
This time tomorrow it won't be this time tomorrow. #DaylightSavingTime #BritishSummerTime #UTCPlus1
It's happening! Again!
