What is your response to people saying we shouldn’t let politics divide us?
reddit.comCalm night shifts get double the scrutiny in some ways
There’s this expectation that if your shifts aren’t generally physically hard or busy you shouldn’t have to sleep so much. Sure, you were up all night but did you do enough to earn a full 8 hour sleep? You weren’t working that hard, so you should be able to get up after 4-5 hours to have dinner with us and if you don’t you’re inconsiderate or mean or lazy and the problem.
Whether I’ve had a busy night or mostly sat and observed I have been up all night. I have worked. Do I call you in the middle of the night after a slow day at work or even a day off and act like you’re just not putting in effort or you’re being selfish because you want to sleep the whole night?
It’s exhausting that wanting to sleep for a full period of time after work is a moral failing if they don’t think your job was busy enough.
Colourful or neutral/maximalism or not
I’ve been curious because I see other audhd or just adhd or autism people surrounding themselves with a lot of very strong colors or for example covering all surfaces with things they’re into with like posters or dolls or other things.
I’m not a tidy person and definitely not a minimalist or opposed to colours but I get so anxious if things are visually busy. I can’t relax in lots of strong colours or things around me and I’m wondering if these are equally common or what side sort of causes it. What’s your preference and why?
Why does this sub specifically get overrun with links, grifters and people trying to promote a side hustle?
I swear, every other day someone is trying to sell their golden advice on how to work nights and function.
It’s almost always very obviously written by or with an LLM like ChatGPT or the like, it reads like an American tv ad and they are relentless.
After their obvious ad posts get removed they move on to scammier and scummier techniques. They make posts trying to commiserate with others working nights and sneaking in a "you know, it used to be really hard for me too, but then I made this routine, actually, funny story haha, I made a guide/book about it, check it out here for 19.99."
Oh no, does their post or comment get removed after people catch on again? Well, remove the link from the profile and sneak it into DMs after building rapport with some poor sucker or drop a comment and then delete it.
And they don’t get banned, apparently. Because why not give second, third chances to someone who’s already proven they’re only here to promote the advice we all already give each other every single week in here or lure someone into clicking on links they shouldn’t have? They only did it once twice thrice.
There’s these dumbass hustle/scam posts and the never ending pictures of the same three shirts, the same exact three pictures, and a comment (alt) going "oh wow, so cool, where can I get it" followed by a link being provided in the comments.
The last time I saw this was in a subreddit about hairstyles, where it was overrun by OF and AI OF accounts. "What do you mean, I’m not promoting anything. You can see two strands of my hair in this picture of my ass in a thong!"
Right now, OfficialNighWatch is a user doing their damndest to lure someone in, and no matter how many posts and comments are reported and deleted, they’re allowed to continue.
Is it one specific person who paid for a course in selling courses and decided to target this sub to their dying day or a group that just found easy targets?
