Holy fuck 2-4 hours regularly just kills you

I had some weeks working 20h per day and only sleeping 2x1.5h, but that's nothing I could keep up long term - and I was still young, when I faced those situations.

Can't think of a way to do this now without medication

If I know anything about Japan, they’re famous for their “work-life balance.”

Sleep deprivation is like being drunk. You make terrible decisions, and operate on a small percentage of your potential.

Like being drunk, your brain compensates and you are not aware of being a dumb-dumb with the decision making capability of a 5 year old.

This behaviour is not surprising, then.

Pointing to the bags beneath her eyes, Takaichi told MPs that she survives on minimal sleep – a habit she shares with her political hero Margaret Thatcher – after being asked how she would tackle Japan’s notoriously long working hours.

Breaking: A politician lied about working hard.

“I sleep about two hours now, four hours at the longest,” she told MPs at a legislative committee meeting this week. “It’s probably bad for my skin,”

Its probably bad for a lot of things. Especially trying to live past 75 years old. Shes already 64, that has got to do a number on your longevity

First, I think she's a shameless exaggerator.

Second, this is so stupid. Forget your health: how do you actually think you're effective without rest? Every human being knows exactly how rest works, because we can all run this test ourselves.

This myth persists that some people can force themselves to be effective with minimal rest by pure will, despite the fact that every one of us has experienced sleep deprivation at some point, and all of us know that without sleep we have the intelligence of a 9 year old.

Anyone who claims to be the exception to this biological rule is either lying or they're stupid because they didn't sleep and now have the intelligence of a nine year old.

Also: not "needing" sleep is often something said by people with insomnia. People like Trump and Musk do survive on only a few hours of sleep a night. But this isn't because they're strong or smart: it's because their brains are not functioning correctly and they can't get sleep they need.

Sleep isn't optional. This PM is fucking up their job by walking through life confused and disoriented.

Is she doing drugs? I would like to know what performance enhancing drugs she is taking. Cause on the measly 4 hrs I take i cant type for crap. But 2 hrs?? Id be gaga conference ducwywc drew conefwfe.....😴

Biologically, this is not sustainable beyond a week or two at the most. She will die.

Or she's lying. It's one or the other.

That is biologically impossible, even with drugs

She is just another far right lunatic lying to justify exploiting people

Dementia often interferes with sleep, and extremist politics is associated with dementia.

This is a mental illness, she needs help not responsibility

That explains a lot about her.

How many hours during the day?
