Once upon a time, I did a podcast about video games and put things in space. I spend most of my time these days laughing at hypocrites, charlatans, and journos who prefer narrative over fact. I have contempt for the institutions who spent 50 years lying to The People about everything that matters.

It has always been my dream to create a page-a-day desk calendar for Low Quality Facts. Because who wouldn't want to start off their day with one of these bad boys? It just seems like a perfect fit. The only problem is that I, a humble fact writer, have no idea how to make a calendar.

Please boost so some publishing company bigwig sees this and helps make the 2025 Low Quality Facts calendar a reality.

@lowqualityfacts so, the first thing you do is decide how many divisions you want to have between 2 days with the exact same amount of sunlight. Then, divide those divisions into equal divisions based on where the sun is on successive light or dark periods…

From now on, anytime someone asks me why I put so much time and effort into this arguably dumb account, I will simply tell them that I do it for Tim.
