Whoops, forgot to clarify. I'm using YY/MM/DD with the Unix epoch for the year (years since 1970). So this is 20th of May, 56th year of the Unix era (that is, 2026)

For awhile I was in the habit of writing dates like "10JUN2026" which is clear to literally everyone who knows English names of months, but is terrible for filing systems...

Sorry, I added the title as alt text by mistake. Fixed now, and also added it in the body just in case.

Don't post images of text. We write text so that blind people can read it.

I understand asking for alt text. But the image is not of text, it's of a cartoon which partially contains text.

And where's the text to describe it?
