just found out via @coupleofdays (Sweden’s ultimate correspondent on all things Tron) that May 14th is when Butt Day is observed in Sweden

Butt Day / Date
Thu, May 14, 2026
SwedenALT
the screencap from Tron: 1982 with Tron climbing on the outside of Sark's Carrier, showing off his butt very nicelyALT


very very relevant… considering our favorite program backend code is also involved in Mission Day, on this sacred date of the calendar!


(we never found out what Mission Day canonically is, though. But, in true Tron fandom tradition, my response was to fill the void of information with something I made up.)


in addition to being a celebration of Missions and Swedish ass, today has some other connotations

A screenshot from a website listing national celebrations on May 14th, including:
Do Dah Day
The Stars and Stripes Forever Day
International Dylan Thomas Day
National Decency Day
National Bruce Day
National Buttermilk Biscuit Day
National Travel Insurance Claims Day
Spinal Cord Injury Awareness Day
Bond With Your Dog DayALT


Bruce Day, Insurance Claims, and Bond With Your Dog day are very Tron/Ram coded

Decency Day not so much, rofl
