Note

alaska has 2 timezones: one for the majority of the state, one for the far western aleutians islands (hawaii time). we should have four or five, only the southeastern panhandle is properly aligned with solar noon

yes yes and you USED to have four I did my research

#I do appreciate this I just also want you to know I didn’t write everything I read this morning in the tags. I said 1 because it’s ALASKA #time I understand there’s a little overlap with Hawaii-aleutian #it had just never occurred to me you could just take timezones away #in 1983 they just said fuck it. one time for all of us. okay!!#surely there is something out there to read about timezones being a construct of capital… hmmmm #carys-the-ninth #answered
