Honestly this is why I work 3rd shift happily.

My BiL is a neurologist who has done a lot of sleep research and one of his favorite areas of study is circadian rhythms. He says that being a night owl is real, it is predicated on the genetic structure of the brain, it is not just “laziness,” and it is not a disorder. He hypothesizes that its original evolutionary purpose was basically to produce night watchmen—people who can stay awake and alert at night to protect the domicile while the early birds sleep.

So we’re not lazy, night owls; we’re the fucking late shift lookouts. Gonna grab my torch and patrol the perimeter if anyone would like to join me.

WE ARE SENTINELS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@thebibliosphere this made me think of that ADHD sleep cycle post. 😊

I knew there was some sort of evolutionary reason for me being a relentless night owl shitposter.
