I remember well the weird period of my life where I worked 12-hour overnights and would stay up for days at a time with the help of Adderall.

Sometimes I smell certain handsoaps in public washrooms and I get flashbacks to those long, strange, strung-out nights.

Why do the rich people get to enjoy life and we just work to get an hour here and there.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

Because they made us believe they come to there by the same position as us.

My stepmother sabotaged a lot of financial support for me from my father, because she read those "rags to riches" stories. She even liked to complain about a coworker of her "spoiling his son" by giving him financial support.

It's by design

I prefer “revenge procrastination bedtime”. I need to get back at that shitty day I just had.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 days ago

Your daytime self gets revenge on you by having an even shittier day!

And today it happened. I was planning to go with 2 hours of sleep, but i shouldn't have tried to sleep for those 2 hours. I woke up at 11:00 am, while i should have been at work at 8:30 am.

Ah. Count me in. Gee.. I was at work from 7:30AM to 7:30PM today, with an 1h commute. Tomorrow, I'll regret it, but I'll play Rimworld tonight.

Literally me this morning. And pretty much every morning. I always regret staying up so late. And I tell myself every morning that today I will go to bed early. It’s no use… I belong to the night. Where my night people at?!!

It's been a struggle all of my life to live on a diurnal schedule, we are the cave guardians

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I love how I feel so tired during the day. I drag my feet around trying to stay busy so I don’t fall asleep. But usually somewhere around 8-9 pm I feel energized and that’s when I decide I want to get shit done. And ready to repeat the cycle of endless tiredness.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Haha, that pre-bed burst of energy where you get more done in an hour than you did most of the day, and then get to go lie in bed with your mind racing about everything you were going to do and will definitely do tomorrow instead of sleeping, and then feel guilty for not being able to stick to the schedule people are asking you to and that your life demands, yeah that shit is the best.

Bruh… are you me? Am I you?

I didn't have no interest in sports or school elections

And in class I dreamed all day 'bout a rock and roll weekend, whoa

[–] [email protected] 19 points 2 days ago

The Chinese claim they invited Revenge bedtime procrastination in 2014. Based on my entire life, I have determined that is a lie. But a 72 hour work week sounds pretty brutal.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 days ago

This hits close

Then there's the self-employed equivalent of that: savage some sense of freedom by sleeping up to 11:00, lunch, then spend up to 02:00 of the next day working nonstop because you got work piling up.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

Okay yeah this is me too. Ideally I'd start working early, get to shut off at some reasonable time but...

Nope, apparently my "Let's actually do this" brain might kick in around 14:00.

And I wonder why I don't get to have fun anymore. =
I'm considering just stacking boxes somewhere, if it wasn't for commuting. I long for independence but can't seem to manage my own time.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago

Anyone here see The Substance? "That bitch is stealing time from me!!!"

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago

It's not about the sense of freedom, it's about my severe case of "just one more chapter" addiction.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

Seems self inflicted
