  1. Am Weltbodentag bzw. WORLD SOIL DAY wird in Deutschland jährlich ein Boden für´s nächste Jahr gekürt. 2024 war es (lange überfällig!) der Waldboden; in 2025 waren es die "Rendzinen" (durch Verwitterungslösung entstandene Böden) und für 2026 ist der sog. "Archivboden" als Boden des Jahres erkoren. Dieser wird als besonderer Zeuge der Vergangenheit gesehen.

    #December5 Day 5/24

    Today I'm giving you a coupon for a haircut! The catch is that it has to be a style popular in France between 1589 and 1778!
    I could get behind the Curly Hedgehog Chignon, c. 1777, with a lover's band! Or Cornucopia? Or Diana's Crescent?

    Marie de Medici also makes an appearance, as do a few gentlemen...

  12. @clacke I originally thought #December6'th was the birthday of #SaintNicholas of #Myra, but according to Wikipedia it's actually his death date «(traditionally 15 March 270 – 6 December 343)»

    From what I understand, originally you'd place your shoe and sing songs on the night of #December5'th, and find the gifts the next morning on #December6th.

    As a result of increased prosperity & commercialisation, it became more common to have small gifts in the shoes in the weeks up to the 5th
