Discardia
Dinah made up a holiday called
Discardia.

I've decided to invent a new holiday called Discardia. It takes place
in the time between the Solstices & Equinoxes and their following
new moons. Discardia is celebrated by getting rid of stuff and ideas
and habits you no longer need. On the Discardian new moon you don't
buy anything or bring anything into your home and enjoy the fact that
you have enough.
I think this is a fine idea. Dinah listed the upcoming ones, but I
was on a hacking binge and thought it'd be fun to write
some code to
do it automatically. Mixing solar and lunar events gives it a
peculiar schedule.
Here are some dates of Discardia:
