When I had housemates in the past, I respected this until 9AM, at that point, unless you actually have a reason to stay up past 1AM (for an 8hr sleep), then I'm afraid then it sucks to be you and I'll just be normal amounts of quiet.
You just sound like a dick, dude.
Normal amounts of quiet. It's not like I ran around the house banging pots and pans.
I feel like Lemmy really self-selects for "night-owls" (people have different chronotypes sure, but like, if you're staying up to 3,4 AM, then you have sleep issues, it's not a chronotype to be up this late. Humans aren't nocturnal. And I say this as someone who has had sleep issues where I have been up that late. You know what I never did, complained that my housemates closed the door a normal amount at 10AM and made a normal amount of noise at that time).... that feel hard done by.
Like, it's called getting along with others, it's something you need to learn when living in a sharehouse.
I went to bed at 5-6 am for a few years. I didn't have sleep issues whatsoever. Slept the same amount and felt just as rested (more if anything) as now where I have a "normal" sleep schedule.
There's also people that, yknow, work at night, whose sleep might start at 9.
I don't think it's necessarily wrong to not limit yourself greatly on what u do based on if someones sleeping as long as you avoid very loud things (a pleasant fuck you to my mom (love you) for insisting she needs to vacuum at like 11 every second day when I had that sleep schedule), but your reasoning is just bull.
See I actually agree with you on this, to a point, that if you're working night shift and your mum knew about it, then it's pretty unfair to be doing the vacuuming at that time each day if she knows you're going to bed that late.
If you're just deciding/feeling it's better for you to be going to sleep that late with no other reasons, then yeah, I do think it was on you to come to some other compromise with your mum about when she can vacuum. In the early afternoon after you wake up for example.
It's the "other people should work around me by default" attitude that I take issue with. When the standard is be awake during the day (right or wrong), then I think it's on the people asking for deviation from that to ask for accommodation.
Hope this clears things up a bit.
