I am in one of the most retarded time zones in the world. At this time of year, just on 1 week past the autumn equinox, the sun should be rising and setting at what should be half way to midnight/noon.
Here, the sun rises and sets at 8, fully 2 hours ahead of the real solar time.
It fucks with my ability to calculate what I should be doing.
So, I am setting my timezone on my computer to what reflects the nearest thing to the actual time, fully 2 hours behind.
On my big angry walk 2 days ago, I observed that the last bus service in my area passed me at just past midnight.
I was scratching my head, thinking, how is it that this is normal, to be awake until midnight on a regular basis?
Ah yeah, 2 hours behind that would be 10pm by the sun, and that's pretty much normal. 9-10pm is the natural time for a human to go to sleep. With 8 hours sleep, one then will be rising at around sunrise.
That's basically what people do here.
I used to think it was weird how a similar thing happened when I was in eastern europe, why everything seemed like it opens and closes an hour later than I thought it should by the clock.
It's because the stubborn slavs also refuse to obey fiat time and after the government changes the clock to be an hour ahead, they changed their working hours to be an hour ahead, thus nullifying the problem.
This is a perfect illustration of the real results of everything that is imposed on people that is contrary to nature. The healthy, strong and stubborn humans just ignore it and do what is natural instead.
I mean, you seriously can't do this DST regime at all if people's clocks were sundials. What, you gonna tell everyone to rotate their sundial anticlockwise 30 degrees last sunday of march and october?
Those who submit to it, and who run their day as though this clock was the sun, are harmed and their health is reduced by this.
Those who can't tolerate it, but have to conform, wind up drinking coffee and alcohol to disrupt their natural endocrine system's arousal timetable, and this causes untold health problems.
Fiat time, fiat food, fiat radio pollution. These things all disconnect us from our nature and make us into slaves.
Fuck fiat anything. I am not complying with any of it anymore.
I do have to remember to step outside my little enclave to see the time that people will give me when I need to do things, or the maps showing the opening hours of things, remember that my pc is showing me the sun's position not their fiat bullshit.
But it's just one more thing that minimises my cognitive dissonance, and my health is going to be much better as a result of it.
