This is madness

wearing 5 layers to be warm is better than wearing 1 layer and still boiling alive and literally having your skin burn and still feel painful and like it's cooking the next day while sitting in a pitch black room
As my mom always said
"If you're cold you can put on more clothes, but you can only get so naked"

You seem like a well adjusted person that is fun at parties.

What if I told you that ALL the seasons have people in them? Kinda gross to think too much about it.
That's what I forgot to add. True, but summertime here is full of shitty tourists, while local people spend more time outside making annoying and noisy parties.

Why on earth would that be preferable? Unless you get up at 5am the morning sunlight is wasted, and you have less sun to enjoy in the evenings
First of all, I don't wake up with the sun. Having it rise earlier is better for me to wake up naturally, and the normal time would actually help me get up early enough to enjoy the cooler morning before work.
Second, I am just as happy when the sun goes down. In fact, if it didn't go down so fucking late I would have an extra hour of less blazing hot temps as the sun goes down to relax outside before bed.
I would rather have more summer sun in the cool morning before work than the blazing hot sun in the evenings after work. I would also like to get to sleep at a reasonable hour, but DST makes that harder.

22:40 here
Iceland?

wrote last edited by [email protected]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 far north do you live to get darkness at 3.30 pm?
Its also not a choice between ops pictures and this because i am convinced they are criticising daylight saving In summer, which does not affect winter.
I live just about in the middle of Norway. It's nearly always dark in the winter and nearly always light in summer.

Fucks with your sleeping patterns is the most common complaint I hear. Not so much at 21:00 but if sunset is after 21 then sunrise will be about before 3.
And you left a 9μm gap in the curtains that definitely makes it shine straight in your eyes walking you up.
This is the amount of daylight we are evolutionarily adapted to pre-migration so "fucks with your sleeping patterns" sounds like a man made horror

If it's warm for a longer period you can aclimate and get used to it, if it's cold for a long time you just die I guess

wrote last edited by [email protected]DST also makes no real difference here, if its sunrise at 4:30am and sundown at 11:30pm or sunrise at 3:30am and sundown at 10:30pm doesn't matter whatsoever.

Better than winter depression. Better than recognizing it's getting dark, wondering where the day has gone but it's only 16:30. Better than waking up in the darkness and realising it's still two or three hours till sunrise. Better than going to work before the sun rises and getting home after it sets, only seeing the sun like an image, a distant promise when looking out the window at work.

And boiling alive is better than winter depression
boiling alive affects everyone seasonal depression only affects certain people

you can acclimate to the cold and if it's too cold again you can put in more layers if it's too hot to acclimate to the heat you can't do anything and going outside is dangerous and risks serious skin and eye damage

I'm a fan of all seasons for their own reasons. You weren't going to leave yur house anyways.
-
Sorry, but I prefer this to winter days where I don't see the sun at all because it's only up while I'm at work.
But sometimes when there's snow and you have the moon shining it's just unbelievably pretty. But yeah, I'll take more sun over less anytime.
-
Yeah summer is terrible, with how you have to put on five layers to stay cool in the sunshine and then go shovel out all the sunshine in your driveway and/or scrape all the sunshine off your car before you drive ten mph all the way to work while fellow commuters slip & slide all over the sunshine covered roads…
You still have snow? Must be nice. We have 40 degrees in june.

Uh, I've never actually seen the show, but I'm pretty sure Fox Mulder is the guy and something Scully is the lady.
