3 Moments of Happiness to Enjoy Before the End of Daylight Savings Fucking Destroys You

It’s important to remain present and in touch with your emotions. There are happy moments in each day to cherish and feel grateful for, until the time that we set our clocks back an hour just as our SAD is beginning to kick in and never feel that spark of joy ever again. So here are three moments of happiness for you to enjoy before the end of Daylight Savings absolutely fucking destroys you.

 

A stroll through the park.

Autumn is beautiful! Take a stroll through a park or around your neighborhood before a custom that everyone has hated from the time our country first started fucking around with it during World War II kicks in and brings your life to ruin. You might think, “Well surely I can take a walk after Daylight Savings time ends.” Um, okay. Be our fucking guest. Try getting out there for a jaunt before it’s pitch black at 4:30 in the afternoon. Make our day. Anyway, definitely appreciate an ambulatory fall outing while you still can!

 

Drink a hot beverage.

A dirty chai with oat milk sounds heavenly! Head to your local coffee shop, order a beverage of your choice, and really appreciate this yummy treat. Try drinking a chai latte after DST ends and you’ll feel insane. Your life is darkness. A majority of your day is spent feeling like you’re at the airport in the middle of the night, looking out through those giant glass walls, a husk of a person. You’re like, “Is it even okay for me to be having espresso right now?” Doesn’t matter; nothing does. The long night has begun.

 

Smiling

Right now you may take smiling for granted, but soon it will be the stuff of distant memories. So really enjoy that exuberant feeling of an easy laugh or grin, because the darkness is coming. Did you know that Marco Rubio has been trying to get us to all just stay in Daylight Savings Time all year? That’s right: You agree with Marco Rubio about something. Why? Because ending Daylight Savings is INSANE and it is on its way to rob you of any chance of happiness until March. The long night is nigh.

 

 

So make the most of these next few days and really savor these wonderful moments! Because you are about to being fucked over psychologically in a devastating way. Unless you move to Arizona, but then it’s like, same. Goodbye, light!
