#punctuation day

Hey you! Yes, you reading this! National Punctuation Day (September 24, in case you don't literally have a sticky note on the calendar like I do) is coming up again and I'd like to do something fun for it, BUT I literally have no idea what to do. I already showed off most of the obscure punctuation I know a couple years ago, I've already been sharing most of the significant breakthroughs on my percontation point research (still ongoing, but nothing new happening right now 😔), and my only current idea (make a punctuation themed outfit in case there's another Dashcon 2 and I'm actually available) isn't super feasible considering how much time and materials it would probably require.

09/24/2025 is World Bollywood Day 🌎, Innergize Day 🇺🇸, National Cherries Jubilee Day 🍒🇺🇸, Punctuation Day 🇺🇸, Schwenkfelder Thanksgiving 🇺🇸, National Women's Health and Fitness Day 🇺🇸, National Fitness Day 🇬🇧

PUNCTUATION BRACKET FINALS

We live, as you may have noticed, in a degraded era, bombarded by facile, shallow, agenda-laced, too rapidly disseminated information bursts. We're about to spend some time in a realm where it is assumed that, as the great (twentieth-century) Russian short story master Isaac Babel put it, "no iron spike can pierce a human heart as icily as a period in the right place."
