  1. The geek in me sees the geek in you and they are awesome!

    Today’s observance from the Miss Fidget calendar is “Embrace Your Inner Geekiness Day” which may be custom made for Mastodon.

  2. Happy National Couscous Day!

    Where do all of those kooky holidays and observances come from? Chases Calendar of Events is the recognized authority on when it’s Burkina Faso Day and French Fry Day as well as outlining how such observances get officially recognized. I have an old copy I’ve been using while I make my calendar for years and 90%+ of it is still good.

  3. Dear Frustrated,

    We are lucky to live in a #multicultural #society where we have people from all different #religions in our schools and summer #camps— including Christians! Although it can be hard for us to understand why someone might attribute religious meaning to #cultural #observances like Tu B’Av, nonetheless, we should also be welcoming and accommodating to people with religious beliefs that preclude them from celebrating certain #secular #American #holidays.
