Gorm gorm is converting times with time zones to UTC before saving

It seems that gorm is converting local times to UTC when writing to my database but the time object in golang has the correct timezone and the field is a timestamp with time zone. Is this expected behavior?

Something like this ...

timezone, _ := time.LoadLocation("Europe/Berlin")
future := time.Now().In(timezone).Add(24 * time.Hour)
log.Printf("future: %+v", future)
streak.ExpiresAt = &future
conn.Debug().Omit(clause.Associations).Save(&streak)

This outputs:

future: 2022-09-22 00:00:00 +0200 CEST

And the query

UPDATE "lesson_streaks" SET "user_id"='34193e38-1e61-11ed-8941-8a6a814de1b1',"expires_at"='2022-09-22 00:00:00' WHERE "id" = 'c17dcc04-28e2-11ed-a750-8a6a814de1b1'

So it's converting to UTC but I want this is the local timezone because it's a future event and if the UTC offset changes during a daylight savings event, it will be inaccurate.
