ASMR Sleep Aid: ISO 8601 - Representation of Dates and Times (Deep Voice)
from Deeply Unimportant: Sleep Stories for Racing Minds · host Dallas Kachan
Sleep well to a boring deep voice — an alternative to sleep stories and white noise. This ASMR sleep aid is for relaxation, insomnia relief and racing minds that need to fall asleep. Time is often treated as a fluid, personal concept, but for the International Organization for Standardization, it is a strict sequence of integers. Tonight, we examine the syntax of the moment, from the four-digit year to the Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) offset designator. We review the protocols for ordinal dates, week dates, and the precise placement of the 'T' separator, finding comfort in a world where the passage of time is reduced to a series of fixed, non-negotiable data points. Deeply Unimportant is a sleep ASMR sleeping aid for minds that need structure to drift off. An alternative to CBT therapy, it employs a form of what sleep scientists call cognitive shuffling that can overcome mind racing thoughts at night. No whispers or fairy tales; just an ordered, structured, boring voice of a real life former newscaster reading material that doesn't matter. This version of the show is ad-supported: ads play at the beginning, but nowhere else as you drift off. Get ad-free episodes, long versions that run all night, and infinite loops for a few dollars a month. Visit http://deeplyunimportant.com to subscribe or gift a membership to a fellow over-thinker.
