This is why I love fall and winter.
Remember your vitamin D
Joke’s on you, I was already not getting any sunlight-vitamin D in summer! The sun is a deadly lazer!
Not anymore!
Theres a blanket.
You can make a religion out of this.
No, don’t
Actually, why not. Besides, has anyone conquered that bit yet?
As deadly as time
giving or receiving?
Por que no los dos?
It has redeeming qualities (taken yesterday). Pretty leaves, less intense sun, perfect outdoor temperatures. During fall I can actually enjoy the outdoors tbh.
Also less mosquitoes and biting flies. School is in session so crowds are down until holiday travel begins.
I love the dark. It matches my depression.
Yeah, it seems like not many people get it. Even my fellow depressed friends much prefer the summer. I hate it
I can tell my family as often as i want, they always think im feeling better if the sun shines 😑
As a light skinned person in a warm climate, this but unironically.
Add to that unbroken cloud cover 24/7 😙👌
I actually love that. Perfect weather.
right? finnaly i can see because it’s not mega bright and think because its not mega hot
I work outside year round and cloudy weather is THE best- bit cooler in summer and the clouds make it a bit warmer in the winter. Love the clouds!!!
Not a ray of sunshine coming through, no shape to the clouds, just uniform grayness, no rain even? It feels like the sky is hanging too low and there’s something wrong with your eyes, like you didn’t notice you left your laptop at 25% brightness since last night. For weeks on end. Starting now until December or whenever the first snow comes. If it comes that is.
It may seem like relief when a too-hot summer is still fresh in your mind, but have you ever even experiened that and still say you love it?
Yes. It is my ideal weather.
I am a sweaty yeti though.
Might explain the preference.
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.
This is my go to argument when people say daylight saving is a pain. When I first came to Japan and left a late night bar at 3 to find the sky getting first light I was dismayed. 430 sunrise is far too early.
Yep. At the height of summer, I can walk around outside at 3ish in my super-countryside area and see well enough to start doing farm work.
At 3am??? Nightmarish to my brain. 3am is so firmly in the “it is always dark at that hour” I’m not sure what I’d do being confronted with sunrise then. I think sunrise here at its earliest was around 545?
I think they must have accidentally delivered your summer to the wrong address, Europe. We had temperature records and rivers have been at record lows for months
i don’t particularly enjoy getting off with the big lights on
Skill issue
clearly articulated preference issue
i love the dark <3
I can actually see again without sunglasses
Good for my goth sensibilities.
I was today years old when I realized that we indeed fall into darkness for several months and then spring back into the light.
Clearly you do not live on the equator.
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?

Vanta?
My black is blacker than your black
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.
Something like the midnight sun fenomenon?
I mean its not really a phenomenon, it happens every year in the north as the closer you get to the poles of earth the shorter days get during winter and longer during summer. Midnight sun happens before cause of the curvature of the earth plus light spreading, and no sun at all doesnt really happen so much, its more like a very small amount of sunlight for a long time. I dont live that north but it still means the total daylight we get during the winter solstice is about 6 and a half hours, from 8:45 to 15:15.
