    Peasants didn't have a rigid schedule cause plants don't and looking at the sun is a shitty way to measure time so they measured time bad. We're industrialized and have been for a while, better just get used to it cause electricity rules

        Because time is a social construct that is extremely useful for organizing people. There is absolutely nothing to be gained from making time less strict. Not measuring the hours doesn't make them disappear. Recreating ways of thinking about the day won't actually change the way you live your life.

        Just because I imagine it different doesn't mean I can't imagine it. Monks also related to society by being fucking parasites. It's pretty cool making a living praying for the souls of novels so it's okay if they wage war. Those medieval chunks of time also sound a lot like a work schedule but without an accurate means of measuring time.

            I don't disagree with you at all on any point but I would say that sort of because of that we don't really need to conciously give a shit about how we measure time because of that. Like it's true but I don't think it matters.
