    All dates should be formatted according to ISO 8601 standard (YYYY-MM-DD).

    Months should be adjusted so September, October, November, and December are the 7th, 8th, 9th, and 10th month respectively (so the literally meaning of the names accords with their actual meaning).

    Not cleaning your kitchen knife after sharpening is trashy and contaminates your food with metal shavings.

      Related: 12-hour AM/PM time, at least in written language, is dumb compared to 24-hour time. I don’t want to have to infer from context if 8 is morning or evening. Build that disambiguation into the written time, ffs!

          Still working on wrapping my mind around that.

          That said, I have wrapped my mind around 10-day weeks, which in work division work as follows:
          ⚒️⚒️🛋️⚒️⚒️🛋️⚒️⚒️🛋️🛋️
          Do this 12 times in a year, add a leap day every three months, say to start each season, plus another extra day for new year’s, and another extra according to existing leap year rules.
