Controversial statement: Noon on the clock should correspond to solar noon.
That also means not having timezones that are completely out of whack with solar time.

NOON SHOULD BE WHEN THE SUN IS AT ITS PEAK FOR THE DAY. I CAN FORGIVE 30MINS HERE AND THERE BUT MY SUNDAIL DOESN'T WORK.
Seriously though, I feel like I'm a plant that needs to stay in sync with the sun and seasons. As a neat little activity you can go to timeanddate.com and put in your location (or any location) and see at what time of the day the sun is at its peak. It also tells you the angle above/below the horizon for the sun and moon at any time and date.
fuck that. dont you dare touch daylight savings.
its the reason why i can leave work in summer and still have some daylight as if i didnt spend my entire day in that bleak office.
tyvm.
