It is certainly impressive to see everyone wearing orange in the Netherlands, but as a French girl all I see is absolute depravity and heresy 🔥🔥🔥

Bonjour, nous sommes vendredi

@jessew@mk.cpluspatch.com That's super interesting!!!

Regarding religion, I totally get that Sunday is important to many religions and I wouldn't advocate for a reform that takes that away.

One of my favourite facts is the following:

A week in the revolutionary calendar is 10 days. At the time, people didn't super like the fact that they'd only get 1 day off in 10 days, instead of 1 day off in 7 days.

But now that having 2 days off in 7 days is the norm, we can instead switch to 3 days off in 10 days, and that's only a 5% increase in yearly time off. It's practically the same!

I just find it neat how the math lines up here. I understand that not working on Sunday is a significant thing in many religions and cultures, so I understand that in practice, this would not be an ideal societal reform. I just like the maths.

Also, with 10 days a week and 30 days a month, the same day of the month would always be the same day of the week.

The days of the week were named after the last digit. For example octidi stands for "octo" as it is the 8th day of the week and it always occurs when the day of the month ends in 8.

I like the french republican calendar, it's such a vibe

The thing is that it's radical. Really. Although one might not see it as such today, it was radical when it was made. It was about rethinking our traditions, reworking a system so deep into society to reflect values which, at the time, were radical.

It's just a shame that the names of the months and the daily commemorations are France-centric, but at the same time it's understandable. One could also work around it, the names of the months and the commemorations could differ depending on the culture.

Gosh I'm so spoiled by the Netherlands and the trains at exact intervals every 30 minutes, how do SNCF schedule their trains? By rolling a dice???

Doing a vegan chocolate fondue for Easter! Including vegan chocolate and marshmallows :3

Bonjour, nous sommes vendredi

Yeah I am not catching up on 14 hours of timeline so I guess today will be the first day I skipped fedi in a long time.

Hope nothing important happened in those 14 hours!

My lab is dug so deep underground that typical systems for geographic coordinates start falling apart and it's unclear what jurisdiction the facility is in. That's just the way I like it :spinny_fox_plural: :rainbow_pride_potion:

All the stores in the neighborhood have finally stopped asking my why I need their entire stock (it's for science of course) :spinny_fox_plural: :rainbow_pride_potion:

Holy smokes! You will not believe my latest discovery! Hold on to your jumpsuit, and look at this, something incredible happens when you mix Mentos into Coca-Cola :spinny_fox_plural: :rainbow_pride_potion:

This potion has the incredible property of being illegal in every country on earth :spinny_fox_plural: :rainbow_pride_potion:
