National Knickers in a Twist Day?

Sunday as you probably know was Easter. Easter as you may not know is a moveable feast; that is, its date of celebration changes from year to year. A lot of math is involved; I'm not sure the Pope would approve. 

You may heard/been involved in some of the brouhaha that went on when The White House, as it has done every year since 2009, marked Sunday as the International Transgender Day of  Visibility. MAGA nation was outraged-though I don't remember hearing any howls when it was celebrated when Pantload45 was in the Oval Office.   

However, for trivial pursuit fans everywhere, it wasn't just Easter and International Transgender Day of Visibility, au contraire! It was quite a day of observances:

PHEW!
