    Huh… weird

    Edit: Pope Gregory XIII invented the Gregorian calendar and skipped those days to account for the actual solar year, which is not 365.25, as the Julian calendar said, but rather 365.2422 days.

      Okay if you scroll enough, it goes from year 2 to 1 to 2 and starts getting higher. I went to 1582 again and this seems to be correct

      If you scroll back to August and September of the same year they don’t show up correctly either. Wonder if October is throwing them off.

      This bothers me way more than it really should.

      We should pressure them to make a fix for it.

    Time travel accident. They didn’t realise that the time itself gets travelled into the future. September of 2843 is going to have 42 days.

    In 1873 Japan changed from the Chinese Lunar Calendar to the Western Gregorian calendar during the Meiji Restoration, but kept the Chinese Zodiac.

    Meaning a Japanese person born at the beginning of the year (between New Year’s Day of the Gregorian calendar and New Year’s Day of the Chinese Lunar Calendar) will have a different Chinese Zodiac than a Chinese Person.

    For example, someone born between January 1st 2025 and January 28th 2025 inclusive would be considered the Year of the Snake in Japan, whereas in the rest of East and Southeast Asia, someone born on those dates would still be the year of the Dragon.

    In China and the rest of East and Southeast Asia, the Lunar New Year January 29th 2025 would be the beginning of the year of the snake.

    Edit: Living in Japan and dating Japanese people, they really don’t like when you tell them this lol.

    So that explains the “Months have either 28, 29, 30, or 31 days.” in that falsehood list.

      I thought this might be a joke about Gregory XIII but no, Greg died of fever so I don’t get the comment at all. Doesn’t appear to be made by a bot, either.

        Greg fixed the issue introduced by the last guy who deemed himself worthy of creating a calendar for the western world. He tried his best to get us out of the mess.
