It is the equinox today and boy the darker evenings are getting noticeable.
I’m going to miss the light evenings so much. It’s depressing being in out in dark doing stuff after work every day.
totally agree. With more and more folks living in the city now I'm not sure why we continue with it TBH. We've got a mental health crisis, this feels like a real easy cheap thing to help, even if its barely a drop in the ocean.
I don't usually have issues with daylight savings but this year has really knocked me about for some reason. Maybe it's hitting the big five oh? Maybe it's exhaustion from the "work-home-go to sleep for God's sake please kids" cycle? I've found the darker evenings comforting, whereas when I was younger I loved the extra daylight on a gorgeous evening (more time to enjoy beverage indulgence).
