#but the picture it used to represent visual clutter was like... many plants. neatly arranged and everything just a lot of them

every time i see shit about how you should arrange your bedroom for best sleep hygiene or whatever, and it's stuff like "don't have yellow walls" and "don't have a lot of visual clutter" i always kind of think like... yeah these are probably good ideas but consider this: i sleep in the dark, with my glasses off and my eyes closed.

like... is a bunch of extra visual clutter REALLY going to affect my sleep when i literally can't see it at the times i'm trying to sleep??

#maybe it's just a ''guy whose worn glasses most of eir life'' thing but i find the best signal for ''sleep time now'' is taking off glasses #i can't argue with the psychological effects of like separating sleep space and work space but like #i still come back to ''is having my work computer desk in my bedroom REALLY going to affect me in the dark with my eyes closed?'' #also y'kno. i was reading a thing that prompted this post and it had the ''visual clutter'' point #but the picture it used to represent visual clutter was like... many plants. neatly arranged and everything just a lot of them #and that's the point when u go ''um. so you're just here to promote minimalism then huh.'' #maybe ''visual clutter'' is a deliberate design choice actually u ever think of that
