- Comment on YSK about the French Republican Calendar 14 hours ago:
Starting a new year in the dead middle of Winter doesn’t make sense to me. Spring is when trees and flowers start blooming, hence the choice of March for the first month by Antique civilizations (also the start of their military campaigns which, although convenient, is not something I get behind really)
