But just like not even the best laid out plans survive an encounter with an enemy, it seems that my haxx0r c0ding skills don't survive a real April 1st.

So, again, I'm sorry, but April 1st is canceled and going forward the month will only have 29 days starting on the second. We'll give the extra day to February. That sucker looks at me with those anemic kitten eyes for years now, so it will surely be happy to get a day more. Update your calendars.

Welp, guess my books are useless now if I can't use them to look up answers to Myne's questions. Book burning is back on the menu!

Book burning

There's this super interesting phenomenon where some things are universal across every civilization and era. Sayings that are valid in highly advanced civilizations, or found in the etchings of long forgotten empires, as well as generational knowledge of small indigenous tribes without outside contact only told to the next generation on moonless nights in the deepest of jungles. They all use different words and some don't even use words at all, but the meaning always stays the same: Don't anger the Myne.

Normal student walks into library. Asks for 1 book. Asks for 0 books. Asks for 9999999999999 books. Asks for a shumil. Asks for -1 book. Asks for 本. Solange smiles back.

Chaos gremlin steps into library and prays to Mestionora. Things beyond human comprehension starts happening.

I would already start to plan ahead for next year today but since there won't be a april 1. next year I can just relax.

If you don’t follow through and make a February +1 day this time next year Myne will be very upset.

Thank you for putting in the effort.

I just wish my Lemmy instance didn’t decide to pull their own April fools and stop working for the day.

So… do I get half a point?

Everyone gets a consolation point just so Myne cannot gloat.
