International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People falls on November 29 every year and serves as a reminder of the absence of inalienable rights, national independence, and sovereignty of the Palestinian people. Territories in Palestine have been occupied by Israel since 1967, and there has never been a formation of an Arab state, even after Israel gained its independence in 1948.
National Stay at Home Because You’re Well Day
National Stay at Home Because You’re Well Day falls annually on November 30. This day, created by Thomas and Ruth Roy of Wellcat Holidays & Herbs, encourages us to take the day off to rest and recuperate from our busy work schedules, and not just because we’re ill or need to fake an illness to get personal time off.
Hagfish Day
Hagfish Day is observed on the third Wednesday in October every year, falling on October 15 this year. It is a day to celebrate the existence and importance of the hagfish — the squiggly, slimy fish species. Although it is often considered the ugliest fish species, it plays a vital role in the overall ecosystem and equilibrium within marine life.
