it's so frustrating to try to explain it to people and they're like "well why don't you just..." or "it's not a big ask", and I'm like "ok so you wake up at 7am? let's schedule regular work calls for 4am and have most shops/services close at noon, and let's see how that works for you over weeks/months/years" ... my body is, on average, 4-5 hours delayed compared to most morning people, so that's pretty much the situation.

and the solution isn't "they have to get on my time" because the problem is fundamentally that we're all expected to be on the same time. it's yet another manifestation of capitalist/factory logics of efficiency and making labor fungible being the top priorities.
