It's time to change the clocks (or wake up disoriented until realizing clocks change themselves these days).

Driving the news: This is the less-hated clock change when everyone (but parents) gains an hour of sleep after setting their clocks back at 2am Sunday.

Why it matters: The biannual disruption affects our mental and physical health, and fuels social media and legislative debates about shifting to year-round daylight saving time.

Flashback: California voters are forgiven for mistakenly remembering they voted to do away with the twice-a-year charade.

• But Proposition 7, approved by 60% of voters, actually authorized a supermajority of the Legislature to make daylight saving time permanent.
• AB 7, co-authored by former Assemblymember Lorena Gonzalez (D-San Diego), tried to do it, but it died in committee.
• AB 2868 in 2021 took another run at it, but died in November 2022.
• Reality check: Even if it received two-thirds legislative approval and was signed by the governor, the federal government would have needed to approve it as well.

State of play: In 2018, U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) introduced the Sunshine Protection Act to make daylight savings permanent nationwide. It passed in the Senate in 2021, but never got a vote in the House.

• This March, the measure was reintroduced in both chambers but hasn't moved out of committee.

What they're saying: Permanent daylight saving time would "improve our health, help kids spend a bit more time enjoying outdoor after-school activities, and encourage folks to support local businesses," U.S. Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Oregon), a co-sponsor of the federal bill, said this year, Axios' Emily Harris reported.

The other side: The American Academy of Sleep Medicine published a position paper arguing that daylight saving time is bad.

• "A change to permanent standard time is best aligned with human circadian biology and has the potential to produce beneficial effects for public health and safety," they wrote.

The big picture: A March YouGov survey found 62% of the 1,000 people surveyed wanted to see clock changing eliminated, as Axios' Kelly Tyko reported.

• Of those surveyed, 50% wanted permanent daylight saving time (late sunrises and sunsets), and 31% wanted permanent standard time (early sunrises and sunsets). 20% just hated changing clocks.

We turn our clocks back to standard time on Sunday, but should we?

Driving the news: Lawmakers, scientists and sleep experts have debated the issue for years and a recent survey found a majority of people don't want our clocks to keep changing.

Yes, but: We want to know what you think about falling back and springing forward.

🎉 Congrats to Shelby H. for identifying the historic Adams Avenue Theater in Normal Heights!

The beloved "vintage movie palace-turned-punk rock concert hall" was renovated into an events and performance space last year and it's worth checking out.

Driving the news: The theater hosts the "Abnormal Nights" comedy show monthly, featuring talented local standups and some out-of-towners.

Details: Last month, a lineup of comedians took the stage to a sold-out crowd.

• The (at times mildly offensive and inappropriate) routines aren't meant for children, so leave them at home.
• They serve Duck Foot Brewing beer, wine and cocktails at the in-house bar for purchase, and you can bring in food.

Cost: The show is free, but you need to reserve a ticket.

When and where: The next show is Thursday, Nov. 16 at 3325 Adams Ave., and doors open at 5:30pm for a 6:30pm show.
