title: How to remove time zone when storing to MYSQL database?
body: <p>I'm currently creating a chatbot that books an appointment. I want to store user data value in my database without the timezone. As I have read on documentations MYSQL stores <code>DATETIME</code> without a time zone.</p>
  <p>For example, a user asks <em>&quot;I want to book an appointment on December 04&quot;</em>. The chatbot interprets its value as <code>2021-12-04T12:00:00+08:00</code>. When storing it in my database I want it to be only <code>2021-12-04T12:00:00</code>. I tried using <code>replace()</code> method but clearly doesn't work.</p>
