I am trying to wrap my mind around the paradox of imposed silent hours, where flushing the toilet after 10pm is debated, or tiptoeing in an apartment to not disturb neighbours, roads with 30kmh limits during the night, replacing good roads with newer more silent asphalt, etc. etc. is lauded… And then there is a church in a quiet village, with a huge speaker system that rings bells every 15 minutes, all day, all night. Open your windows at night during the heatwave and it’s like you’re (not) sleeping in the bell tower itself. How can there be so much emphasis on sleep quality and silence, and then they don’t turn off the bells… Every 15 minutes! It’s completely insane. submitted by /u/medbud
