German Tuesday (Dienstag) roughly translates as duty-day (Dienst-Tag), probably not etymologically, but still.

Etymologically, it derives in some way from the Norse-Germanic war god Tyr (akin to French “mardi”, “day of mars”, ig).

Ah yes, the war day. I wonder how many wars started on a Tuesday?

I know that World War I started on a Tuesday so that’s 50% of all world wars right there.

All the more reason to reduce productivity. Flatten the curve, lower expectations. Tuesday is the scab of weekdays. The other days need to strike.
