120
I sometimes can't sleep at night. Perhaps my brain's "CMOS Chip" battery ran out and my circadian rhythm defaulted to my "factory settings" of Beijing Time (UTC +8), which would explain my insomnia. (sh.itjust.works)

Context: My "hardware" was "made in China" (I was born in China)

Okay sorry stupid joke, but I remember having a conversation about global manufacturing and how everything is "made in China" then my mom was like: "You are also made in China" lmfao

(But seriously tho, it's just depression, can't sleep, hence this showerthought)

I still remember when I first got here, I remember the jetlag. It's almost exactly 12 hours apart, literally just flipping day and night. I remember my brain getting so confused the first couple weeks.

I feel like for a lot of us, the 24 hour day does not align with our natural rhythm. Since working from home for a few years, I found that a 26-hour day fits better for me. I'd fit in great on DS9.
