Oh, no - it’s not just making your morning darker! By making you wake up earlier in comparison to the natural rise of the sun, which shifts you farther outside your natural circadian rhythm than capitalism already does, you experience an effect similar to what people on the trailing edge of time zones experience, at least for a time. These include higher incidences of obesity, diabetes, heart disease, and breast cancer. Oh, and increased rates of suicide.
…yay.
Edit: I love that every time I wade into the DST debate and present evidence that DST is garbage and we should all be starting our day later, I get downvoted or argued with by some person who thinks that because they get more sun in the evening, they are a better judge of the right approach to health than peer reviewed science.
I struggle in summer DST. Because the sun sets later, I don’t get hungry untiil later, which triggers my tiredness later, which makes my eventual sleep shittier, and I’m more tired in the morning.
