the thing that sucks is that people love saying sleep early is good etc etc and yeah it is. I’ve seen some benefits before. but I think it sucks to ignore that late night is the only time with any freedom. I think it sucks to not acknowledge the dread in waking up and it’s a work day again
“fast travel to work” is a great way of putting it. because a lot of people say “but the less time you have at night, the more time you have during the morning!” but your morning is like, getting emotionally ready to get off of bed, taking your meds, taking a shower, making and eating breakfast, going to work, etc. and waking up early will just make you do that stuff early. it won’t give you more time to rest, it won’t give you more time to talk to anyone, it won’t inherently give you anything at all even. sometimes saving up 30-60 minutes before work is just kind of a nothing amount of time. it’s like saying extended lunch break is free time. it’s not. just because you’re not actively working doesn’t mean you’re not giving your time to your employer
