China Edition
Contacts Archeology Day leads today's complete edition for China.
Daily Edition
Official observances, world days, local context, and everyday celebrations for people who need something worth reading, sharing, or talking about today.
Turn off the world, find a place of peace for an hour. Open your phone. Spin through and delete every contact you no longer need. Marvel at the list. Try to remember why they were there. You'll be so happy you did this, and it's good for some laughs as well as some tears and deep thought.
Established by the UN to celebrate multilingualism and the Chinese language specifically. A day to appreciate the characters that survived thousands of years, the four tones that make "ma" mean mother, horse, hemp, or scold depending on how you say it, and a writing system so beautiful it hangs on walls as art.
