Well, in the northern hemisphere, we'll start getting progressively more daylight in 6 days.
Wait, already? I want dark. Me need dark.
Keep your blinds down then, but the rest of us praise the sun!
Night man, ahhEHHHahhhhh!!!!
If only I could be so grossly incandescent!
I only praise the man-made sun.
It'll still continue to feel dark until early March so don't worry.
Yea this is my first winter in the northern hemisphere, I was warned about the dark being unbearable, but it’s been pretty good so far…
It’s harder on the upswing for me. Maybe it’s because January and February seem to stretch on after the holidays, but I don’t really get tired of winter until later (luckily).
It depends how north are you
Absolutely, but unless you're in Antarctica, it can get much more extreme in the North than South. Tierra del Fuego is south of Australia and South Africa, but it's closer to the equator than the southern tip of Norway.
By like 2° latitude... But yeah... Nobody lives below Tierra del Fuego all year (scientists maybe?) but plenty of people live North of there (Stockholm, St. Petersburg, Finland etc.).
Source that there is a Finland?

Oh hell yeah
Thank fuck. I hate the thing where the sunrise is at 10am, and sunset is at 2pm.
I can take the cold. I like seasons. I despise the short days.
Booooo!
Vampires hate this one weird trick
What, not being in highschool? That tends to put them off their feed, I hear. 🤢🙃
