In this post we need to pick the notable dates that will be celebrated on Hive's social media outreach accounts such as Twitter 'hiveblocks'.
Until recently we've avoided all notable holidays and days of interest, both in order to not exclude or offend anyone inadvertently and as an oversight. We've only celebrated our own key milestones, which will keep doing.
Recently, however, we broke that trend by celebrating Christmas and New Year. Acknowledging holidays and notable days that our decentralized community cares about may not lead to every day being a good fit for everyone, but instead is a good sharing and mix of our individual backgrounds and cultures.
In this post I ask you to help make the list.
Reply in comments with the top 3 notable days or religious holidays that you think are a good fit. Use this format:

New Years Day - Jan 1
International Women's Day - March 8
Halloween - Oct 31
One day that I'm on the ball about is Valentine's Day. It's prominent globally but it's also the day we found out about the start of the hostile takeover that led to Hive being created. For myself it'll always be the day I came home, sat down and found out the news, and then didn't get up until sometime in May when I finally took a day off. I'll leave it to those in the comments to decide.
Thanks for your contribution. Your input will be documented here and in Gitlab. Submissions close 7 days from now.
