It has redeeming qualities (taken yesterday). Pretty leaves, less intense sun, perfect outdoor temperatures. During fall I can actually enjoy the outdoors tbh.

Remember your vitamin D

I love the dark. It matches my depression.

Add to that unbroken cloud cover 24/7 😙👌

i don’t particularly enjoy getting off with the big lights on

I can actually see again without sunglasses

This is what I hate about New England lately, and it's only getting worse.

The summers are too damn hot and the rest of the year is too damn dark.

Just let us switch to AST ("permanent EDT"). We are too far north and too far east in a timezone that is just too damn big. At least that'll take care of it being too damn dark. There'll still be sunlight left when I'm off work.

I'm sure Wall St. would love to be an hour closer to London, no?

I'm digging it. I don't start getting woken up by by sunlight at 4am unlike the height of summer. Being in coastal northeastern Japan, I really think we need to move the time zone by an hour or two so the sun comes up closer to 5 or 6 in summer.

I do lament our lack of summer this year. We had the rainiest weather on record in many parts of Japan. Days and weeks without a rainless day.

As a light skinned person in a warm climate, this but unironically.

I quite like the significance placed on the "turning on of the lamp" in moomins books to signal the start of autumn. Dark!

i love the dark <3

I was today years old when I realized that we indeed fall into darkness for several months and then spring back into the light.

Good for my goth sensibilities.

Ahh if the op is actually from yukon as the handle suggests, i believe their experience during fall is like that. Im a few degrees south from that latitude but its still quite depressing here tho only in the latter half of fall. Early october is still quite bearable.

It's nice in October to start be able to see daylight in the evenings again

For those in the states, is this something a change with daylight savings can fix? I’m in the dark on that (pun!) and wondering if a change could help?

I live in Arizona. It's still sunny and over 100 degrees here. Where does this person live, Alaska?
