    Fuck that, use coffee like everyone else.

    Fuck that, y’all are addicted to caffeine and normalising it to the point where not being a coffee craving zombie in the morning is apparently a weird thing.

    Sun after work is literally the only time I see sun in the winter.

    Idk what your job is but do you not have any windows anywhere? Because that’s how you get burnout along with coffee addiction.

      Fuck you morning people and normalizing waking up early in the morning to the point where sleeping until we’re rested is lazy and staying up “late” is irresponsible. We adapted to your schedule using the aids we have available and now you shame us as addicts for doing what we had to do to accommodate your morning hegemony. I say, how dare you sir! /Half-joking

        Bro I’m not even a morning person. And it’s because of that I need daylight in the morning to be able to get out of bed without being like Garfield on a Monday. I hate waking up in the morning as much as you do, but I hate it a bit less if the daylight is there too.

      Oh I’ve got a window alright. It is set up perfectly right so that on the day after ST takes over I can see the sun set 6 minutes before I get off work. Sun’s down, guess I can go outside now!

      That is absolutely devilish. I have to get to work so I’ll wake up whenever to get there. But all outdoors evening activities are, at best, a complete joke 5 months of the year because of fucking ST. Wanna take a quick jog around the neighborhood? Bad news bitch, it’s pitch black outside. Here’s to hoping I don’t get run over by a fucking bus.

      “Sun rises after work starts” is a setup for caffeine addiction, but “sun sets before work ends” is a setup for crippling alcoholism. Literally nothing to look forward to all day long, five months a year. I will not take any shit from so-called morning people about this, there is one objective truth here and it’s that standard business hours being the worldwide standard that they are, ST the absolute fucking worst for office workers.

          Cop-out answer. Ending capitalism and ending ST are not the same fight. I’m not confident I’ll see the former happen in my lifetime, but the latter is a distinct possibility (though the pro-ST “I hate to see the sun in my free time” people have a slight edge where I live). Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good.

          Also I’m not even sure how ending capitalism is actually relevant. My skillset is office stuff, and until further notice humans still need to collaborate to get things done and therefore have a concept of “business hours” (though those don’t have to be 8-6).

          I see the “8 hours of work is too many” angle, but that problem is mostly orthogonal to capitalism. Capitalist societies can (and have) changed the standard number of working hours. Communist societies are not exempt from the concept of mandatory labor either (quite the contrary for all historical examples!). If you’re looking for an economic model where everyone is free to work whenever they damn well please, I’m afraid you’ll have to bring the replicator thingies from Star Trek into existence first.

            I have more issues with having to wake up in the dark than going home in the dark. And after all it’s just one hour. What are you going to do with 1 hour of daylight after work besides being stuck in traffic for most of that time? Unless you live close to your job of course…

      Why does my boss get virtually all of my daylight for half a year? Why don’t I get some daylight for my own use between work time and bedtime?
