I work incredibly hard during the day so it's not hard for me to fall asleep at night even if I'm staring at my phone and even if I stare at it first thing when I wake up in the morning. My circadian rhythms cannot be defeated. I love sleeping all night & working me arse off all day.

I don't use my phone, but I do use an ereader. Maybe when real books become cheaper or the library becomes more convenient I'll ditch that habit.
Books can definitely be expensive but they're one item on an ever shortening list of things that corpos can't claw back from you after purchase. For that reason, they're money well spent if you ask me!
I need my nebuliser ASMR every morning I have to go to work or I will be very grumpy all day
Science has citations, not tweets.
Just bekause you believe it doesn't mean you have to obey it
How are you supposed to stop being sleepy in the morning without pulling out your phone.

Science means knowing better than trusting reports that affirm preconceived notions.

Now that you mention it, my phone is by far the most reliable alarm clock I've ever had. It does DST switches for me. The battery recharges itself. I just never noticed because phones sucked at first.
We have phones doubling as alarm clocks to thank for the technological gains in RTC (realtime clock) chips, and deeper CPU sleep states.
All new chips have robust sleep options these days because phones needed to be reliable alarm clocks when "off".
Efficient RTC chips with alarm pins, born out of that chaotic era
Believing in science helps me understand why my "beer belly" is so damn big.
