No one gave them too much power. They just woke up early and took it before anyone else could.

But they are seen as more productive because they are on farmers' hours

[-] fossilesque@mander.xyz 41 points 1 year ago

Yes, but we are on scholars hours. 🧐

They took the early worms

We need to liberate them

Join the rebellion

[-] UrPartnerInCrime@sh.itjust.works 19 points 1 year ago

The early bird gets the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese

Long live the second mouses!

I feel like there is some famous saying about that, something like ... people who wake up early get worms.

A sleep scientist/professor named Matt Walker has a podcast about, you guessed it, sleep. He talks about this and how it's very unfair to people who are biologically programmed to get tired later.

He goes on to describe scientific proof of the effect this has on their sleep and the impact to their health. It's sad really, but his hope is to raise awareness and acceptance of the night owl's schedule.

When they all got together to decide what kind of civilization to have, all the slackers slept in. That’s why we have to work before noon.

[-] Cryophilia@lemmy.world 34 points 1 year ago

If they had just held their fuckin meeting at a reasonable time like 6pm we'd be on top of the world order

[-] Ddhuud@lemmy.world 66 points 1 year ago

Nobody gave them anything. They just took it... while we were sleeping.

As an early person I think night owls have it better in some ways, yeah work can start early but if you want to do anything "cool" it's always late at night. Wish they'd do more daytime concerts and stuff

[-] marito@lemmy.world 37 points 1 year ago

Oh cool! Daytime concerts in the scorching Sun!

The joke's on them. I am no good before 8.30am or after 8.30pm.

I'm the guy who handles all of the 4:59 crisis because the morning people all left at 4

[-] flossdaily@lemmy.world 43 points 1 year ago

Sure, but night owls have more fun.

[-] bassomitron@lemmy.world 32 points 1 year ago

More fun or more regrets? Both. The answer is probably both. (Spoken from a night owl forced to transition to early as fuck morning life)

It's why you keep calling the early bird people at 8pm for work stuff and giving them shit for not working late until they get the message that them calling you at 8am is just as annoying.

It's biology. When winter comes and we switch daylight saving times again, I wake up an hour earlier according to the clock while walking up at the same sun time the entire year.

This is not a shit post, it’s a real issue for many. In Denmark there is a political movement for the rights of non-early birds, called B-Samfundet (B-Society).

I'm a morning lark, but this annoys me so much! People should be able to work whenever the F they're at their most productive, not when morning larks decided everyone should be.

[-] hiramfromthechi@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Feel free to continually emphasize this with your fellow morning larks pls

From the studies I've read, this seems to be the case across the entire school system, not just university. If anything, it might even affect K-12 even more, since, the younger we are, the more sleep we need.

Nevertheless, I had my most challenging class 8am my freshman year of college and yeah, can confirm—it was horrific.

In retrospect, maybe it didn't help that I was out partying til 3am every day too, but that's a different story... (Jp, I was actually very diligent about it, but still couldn't crack the formula. It was simply too early.)

I wake up without the alarm at 0400 every day now. My alarm doesn't even go off til 0500. I only want to stay up late looking at the stars, but haven't done that in forever.

I've become what I hate.

The only problem I have with early birds is that they won't let me sleep-in late in the mornings; they make so much noise.

Now, the Sun on the other hand...

Look, I can't help it. The dogs wake me up at 4 every day and I can't train them out of it and once I'm awake, I can't get back to sleep.

I wish I wasn't a morning person. I really wish I could sleep in on the weekends. Alas, fate had naughty dogs in store for me.

100%. I just don't get productive before 13:00 and my best time is 17:00 to 19:30. I come to work at 8:30, sit arround basically not accomplishinga anything before noon and then work productively a couple of hours and when I start to really get stuff done I am forced to stop (working has to stop at 18:00 here).
