    No one gave them too much power. They just woke up early and took it before anyone else could.

        No, they’re seen as more productive because they are more productive. Being a night owl means you’re drunk/high and gaming.

            Is it? “Often times”?

            Just because that’s what you two have always done when you stayed up “late” doesn’t mean that it applies to everyone.

        My wife has to be up at 4am for her job, which means I’m up that early most days too. It isn’t a choice that we want to. But it is a social life killer. You invite me to arrive at your house on a Tuesday at 7 for an evening of dinner and games or something, the answer is probably going to be no.

    A sleep scientist/professor named Matt Walker has a podcast about, you guessed it, sleep. He talks about this and how it’s very unfair to people who are biologically programmed to get tired later.

    He goes on to describe scientific proof of the effect this has on their sleep and the impact to their health. It’s sad really, but his hope is to raise awareness and acceptance of the night owl’s schedule.
