        The Steam Deck has revolutionized this for me. I was always too tired to sit upright at my desktop and game after we got the kiddo to bed. Now I can lay in bed and play my PC games. I’m finally working through games I never thought I would get to.

      If I go to sleep now I’m going to wake up to a toy being shoved in my face and “play with me mummy” or a screaming kid from a nightmare. If I stay up an extra hour I get to be by myself for an extra hour.

      Either way I’ll be tired.

      Not much choice there, I’ll stay up and be more sleep deprived.

    Worse, if you try to minimize sleep to maximize your day then your body and mind suffer.

    Though there are some natural “short sleepers” that can get a full night in 5 hours. That’s definitely not me!

      Do you happen to know if there’s a category of sleepers who go a month or so only needing 5 or 6 hours then a month or so needing 9 or 10 hours? Because I feel like I fit into this odd category.

    Yeah, but you’ll wake up later and possibly more tired. And if you stay longer, you’ll get tired pretty fast and will not be as productive.

    No winning this.

    A few times after sleeping well, I can actually wake up in the morning and get significant things done involving an outing for breakfast, and feel like I’m midway through my day at a time I’d usually be waking up. It’s hard to build up to that point though.

    Naps or divide your sleep. It is a great feeling taking a hour nap and waking up not going to work

      I lived like this most my life, but with kids this breaks down completely. The only time noone is bothering you - kids or coworkers - is at night.

          In this economy??

          Fabricated poverty and homelessness, medical and educational debts, corporate greed and consumerism, accumulating environmental issues that nobody with the ability to make change is willing to pursue, non-stop wars, political turmoil…

          I don’t know. I think the dead have it better.

    Imagine a world where everyone goes to sleep as soon as they are done with work, and saves their groggy end-of-day hours for work. Unfortunately, society has chosen the opposite.
