Well, in the northern hemisphere, we'll start getting progressively more daylight in 6 days.

[-] user224@lemmy.sdf.org 69 points 2 days ago

Wait, already? I want dark. Me need dark.

Keep your blinds down then, but the rest of us praise the sun!

[-] Snapz@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

If only I could be so grossly incandescent!

[-] P00ptart@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago

I only praise the man-made sun.

[-] PunnyName@lemmy.world 22 points 2 days ago

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…

[-] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 22 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

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).

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.

[-] BigBrainBrett2517@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago

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.).

Thank fuck. I hate the thing where the sunrise is at 10am, and sunset is at 2pm.

[-] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 22 points 2 days ago

I can take the cold. I like seasons. I despise the short days.

[-] theherk@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

I love it. For about 2 weeks. Then I just want to go to Spain until May.

[-] lars@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 1 day ago

Spain is still too far north. I want to dive into liquid magma till May.

Vampires hate this one weird trick
