Ever wonder where all your time goes? A new government survey breaks it down—turns out the average American spends about a third of their day sleeping, a quarter working, and the rest juggling everything from chores to Netflix. The data shows some surprising shifts, like more remote workers squeezing in hobbies or caregiving during traditional office hours.

Editor’s Note: Time use surveys are like a national mirror—they don’t just track minutes, they reveal cultural priorities and hidden stressors. If work hours are creeping into family time or screen time’s overtaking hobbies, that’s a quiet signal about wellbeing (or why everyone’s exhausted by Thursday). Worth skimming to see how your own life stacks up.
