As a night shift Psych nurse basically my entire job is re-tuning people's circadian rhythms. For this specific situation I recommend getting used to sleeping to a loud white noise with a fair amount of variation in pitches / "texture" I guess? The more different noises it has the better it covers random environmental noises.
My go-to is usually a raging thunderstorm with lots of lightning cracks and rumbling thunder. There's very few things that doesn't drown out and it should only take a week or two to get used to sleeping to whatever soundtrack you pick (think about how long it takes to get used to sleeping somewhere new when you move).
For extra oomph it can help to bring in your other senses as well. Essential oils may not cure cancer but they make excellent Pavlovian conditioning cues.
Remember kids, the biggest difference between you and Pavlov's dogs is that you get to choose what you get trained to do!
I've heard that people have great success sleeping to Balatro streamers
My HOA gives us increasing fines if a piece of grass so much as TOUCHES the sidewalk. So it's not my fault :( I would rather let it grow and have a ton of biodiversity but nooooo. Also I'm not joining the HOA or running for the board or any of that crap. I would love if someone came and planted some plants that were on the extinction list and the HOA couldn't do anything about. That would make me so happy to stick it to them.
Land of the free! Sorry you gotta deal with that :(
What is even the point of buying a home in a HOA? You're getting fucked by the bank on the loan and then by random dickheads about your yard... Might as well get an apartment at that point and get some rest.
I think somebody should get some clay and some mycorhizally robust fertilizer and some seeds of protected/endangered species and make seed-bombs to be tossed in places people might not find them until they're identifiable.
Maybe take geotagged photos once they're illegal to remove. Make it so a timeline gets published any time they get rwmoved?
Because operating a noise machine makes them feel manly.
It could be a whole host of reasons to be fair.
I’m pretty bad about letting my grass get long, but the only reason I would ever mow before 10 am is because I don’t want to get too hot.
I use an electric mower and do it early as fuck sometimes, like as soon as the sun comes up. Super quiet.
I had an electric mower, I always hated the cord and it was a real cheap thing with a very small footprint.
It got the job done, but instead of taking 15 minutes it took me 30.
I’ll invest in a nicer electric one once my current gas powered one dies for sure.
Modern electric mowers use batteries, and they’re awesome.
Just return to scythe. It's faster then you would think.
And sharping the blade is manly as fuck and fun!
Than*
I get extra man points by shaving with one!
This seems like the best option. I didn’t realize how expensive electric lawn mowers were these days!
I bought one for under €100 including the battery. That's pretty low power and would not be much fun for anything over 100m^2^. But you also have to consider maintenance and fuel efficiency which usually makes TCO less for electric devices.
Anecdotal, but the only lawn mower I can hear of my 3 neighbors is the electric one. The noise it makes is the worst drone and it pierces.
Every fucking time. Except my bougie ass neighbors have astroturf, so the dude literally vacuums his lawn. It takes fucking hours...
That's so much extra wear and tear on the astroturf.
Wild.
They're millionaires, so they just don't care... They're nice enough though, and at least they're quiet and respectful any other time.
Like with a normal household vacuum?
I mean, how else do you keep biodiversity from returning to this green desert?
brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
and when you thought he is done with your area and move onto the other:
BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
my parent's neighbour likes to bring out the whipper snipper at 9:30 sunday morning when we're trying to have coffee and chill out, it sucks.
I used to mow starting no later than 830. I did it because that the only way to get done before it gets stupid hot.
Now I pay someone to do it and they typically do it Sunday afternoons.
I feel you brother. Nobody respects the idea that night shifters need sleep too. I met my gf over 20 years ago. We worked together on night shift, so she understood the trials and tribulations of night shift workers. She became disabled soon after, and no longer worked. About 10 years ago I was asleep, and was awakened by BAM, BAM, BAM, BAM, in the kitchen. I get up to see what the fuck was going on. She's standing at the counter trying to open a jar of pickles by smacking the lid on said counter. I must have cussed her out for five straight minutes. "Did you really need some fucking pickles that goddam bad?" and "goddammit woman, you know better, " were among the choice phrases I had for her.
