Living in the PNW, I would very much prefer to be on permanent summer ti.e, since that way fall and winter night time does not come obscenely early.

It gets very depressing to go to work when it's still dark, stay in a windowless room while it's light, minus a few short breaks, and then go home and it's already dark again.

I just don't want the sun to come up at 5am in the summer.

I honestly don’t mind that tbh. I like watching the sun rise early in the morning
