- Wait at least 2 months before reposting
- No explicitly political content (about political figures, political events, elections and so on), !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca can be better place for that
- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca

I wish this is how we arranged it. Makes so much more sense
Alas, my brain is too used to wed in the middle
I have good news for you. Wednesday in German is Mittwoch=midweek
Yeah, becase it's in the middle of the week. The weekend is after the end of the week.
Weekends can be like bookends, where you have one on each end.
Exactly, a different one on each end.

Portugal being different from Spain and the UK managing to have both Monday and Sunday conventions are pretty funny. But I don't recognize the freaks in Indian ocean who are the only ones to use Friday as the starting day.
Edit: it's Maldives.
TIL about
cal. It's a standard util-linux command! And it follow my locale automatically :0Motu weth, fr'sa su
