I wish, Toronto is too far east in its timezone so the sun is up too early and goes down too early

wrote last edited by [email protected]Lol what? Toronto is basically smack dab in the centre of the eastern time zone, if anything it's a little west of the true centre which I think is NYC

Your attitude is entirely dependant on your latitude my natty dude
If I were near the equator: is this a joke I'm too 0° lat to understand?

Yea, here in New Orleans the sun is setting around 7:30. Elsewhere in the post people are talking about the sung going down at 9:00 in Germany. So I looked it up and apparently New Orleans is further south than Cairo.

I am a solstice enjoyer. I want 16 hr days in summer and 16 hr nights in winter. 12-12 is basic and cringe. Fuck the fake ass seasons like autumn and spring and fuck the equator!

I think you're forgetting that night time is cool and day time is for losers.
depends where you live
-
No. No i think roasting when you open your front door is worse.
does depend on where you live tho. up north the summers aren't so bad

That’s a hard ask of the stupids of the world.
The problem is not of stupidity, but of concerted efforts by fossil fuel lobbies to muddy the research, create anti-green propaganda, climate science denialism, hide determinant research about climate change, and lobby politicians who are against the fight on climate change.

I actually like that the sun doesn't set until like ten in the evening where I live. It also starts rising at 3 in the morning. I love it. I prefer this to depression season the other half of the year xS

Objectively,
Because we would be avoiding the 2 jet lag times a year which have been proven to cause deadly (traffic) accidents.
Because the other alternative of always dst means sun only gets up at 10am in winter which can negatively impact mental health (especially for children and teenagers)
Subjectively,
Because some people actually enjoy summer nights.
Because getting up on time is easier with more sunlight. And waking gradually and naturally at 5:30 beats waking forcefully by alarm at 6:30
How does keeping kids inside the whole time the sun is up improve their mental health over giving them an extra hour of sun after school that they can actually enjoy?

As my mom always said
"If you're cold you can put on more clothes, but you can only get so naked"
I can't have warm hands and usable dexterity in winter. Only in winter can I have painfully cold, numb hands and be sweaty at the same time.
At least in summer my whole body agrees that it's warm and my hands always work properly

I am no psychologist but it’s about how their day night cycle develops which is very different from adults.
Daylight is one of the systems it uses to self regulate and start feeling awake.
School actually starts to soon in many places, that already a major part of it. Research (not at hand) actually show grades go up if school starts later. We basically force kids to be tired to fit our schedule and it gets worse for teens.
With delayd sunlight. They wont really be properly awake for almost half their “productive” day”.
We also know that lack of sleep is a pillar of mental health conditions, now include all the dormant mental health conditions kids already carry and with growing up in this timeline.

Found the Dane
I've been to Denmark and I agree, it's great to have sun until late in the evening. It feels like you have more life after a work day.

And it's besutiful.
For ghouls, maybe.

Fuck the sun
No, fuck you.
