 @janusrose i almost misread the last one as "that we have to ratio The Sun" (as in the newspaper)
@janusrose So true. I've been so much better mentally since wfh and having real daylight all day. @janusrose ☑️ we also shouldn't exactly align sunlight hours with being forced to be in an office  Shortening the workday to 7 hours from November to February sounds reasonable, there are a lot of holidays during this time anyway @janusrose ☑️ We should work in spaces where we can see the sun, rather than Brutalist edifices where window seats are only for managers. Seasonal affective disorder is so much better since I started working from home, gosh. I wouldn't go back to those days where I lived under fluorescents and never saw sunlight. @janusrose 🔥 we shouldn't have to work so many hours but also we should have a second sun @janusrose this is a real mood in my northern latitude home right now. thankfully, i work from home so i do get to partake. but YES THIS VERY MUCH THIS. @janusrose the real crime here is that it’s getting dark at like 5pm now AND it’s still like 80 °F here during the day. at this point in my life, i’ve gotten used to the dst change and doing away with it would throw me off, but it should NOT be allowed to happen before the temperature actually drops because this just feels wrong  @janusrose so I live in #Iceland, and… inb4 Daylight Scaling Time. :blobcat3c: @janusrose When you live far enough north, there are times of the year that you only get sun for an hour or so at some times of the year. And if you live even further north, you have times of the year where you see the sun all hours of the day :p I assume the same goes for south but on the opposite time of the year. For the record, I agree that we should have shorter workdays. I'm not saying this to disagree with you :) @janusrose ... which kinda means that working in the Far North is a bad idea? I suppose what we could do instead is work longer hours in the summer to make up for lost hours in the winter....? @janusrose Maybe we should more, shorter hours in the winter when daylight is precious, and fewer/longer in the summer. But work the same number all year #likeTheRomansMaybe |
@janusrose Well, north of the Arctic Circle you can't really do much about it :p.
Polar nights must be rough. Haven't been, but it's on the bucket list.
