I looked in your code and assumed that problems with translation binds with strings in objects and switching language on fly.
As a small experiment I used a Calendar class
Python: 
init python:

    class Calendar(object):
        def __init__(self, week=1, timeofdaycounter=0):
            self.week = week
            self.timeofdaycounter = timeofdaycounter
            self.daycount_from_gamestart = 0
            if lang == "english":
                self.days = ["Mon", "Tue", "Wed", "Thu", "Fri", "Sat", "Sun"]
                self.timeofdayname = ["Morning", "Noon", "Afternoon", "Evening", "Night"]
            else:
                self.days = ["Lun", "Mar", "Mie", "Jue", "Vie", "Sáb", "Dom"]
                self.timeofdayname = ["Mañana", "Medio día", "Tarde", "Noche", "Media noche"]
i propose to do smth like this
Python: 
init:  # init object with stings at the start of the game
    $ days = [__("Mon"), __("Tue"), __("Wed"), __("Thu"), __("Fri"), __("Sat"), __("Sun")]
    $ timeofdayname = [__("Morning"), __("Noon"), __("Afternoon"), __("Evening"), __("Night")]
 
label after_load:  # reinit objects after reloading the save file
    $ days = [__("Mon"), __("Tue"), __("Wed"), __("Thu"), __("Fri"), __("Sat"), __("Sun")]
    $ timeofdayname = [__("Morning"), __("Noon"), __("Afternoon"), __("Evening"), __("Night")]

init python:
    
    class Calendar(object):
        def __init__(self, week=1, timeofdaycounter=0):
            self.week = week
            self.timeofdaycounter = timeofdaycounter
            self.daycount_from_gamestart = 0
Basicaly you move arrays from the class and create a function\label which should re-init all objects with stings after starting the game and loading save file. (I need to mention that inside "Calendar" class you need to use "days" instead of "self.days")

translation file looks like :
Python: 
# TODO: Translation updated at 2021-04-09 17:26

translate spanish strings:

    # game/pantallas.rpy:9
    old "Mon"
    new "Lun"

    # game/pantallas.rpy:9
    old "Tue"
    new "Mar"

    # game/pantallas.rpy:9
    old "Wed"
    new "Mie"

    # game/pantallas.rpy:9
    old "Thu"
    new "Jue"

    # game/pantallas.rpy:9
    old "Fri"
    new "Vie"

    # game/pantallas.rpy:9
    old "Sat"
    new "SГЎb"

    # game/pantallas.rpy:9
    old "Sun"
    new "Dom"

    # game/pantallas.rpy:10
    old "Morning"
    new "MaГ±ana"

    # game/pantallas.rpy:10
    old "Noon"
    new "Medio dГa"

    # game/pantallas.rpy:10
    old "Afternoon"
    new "Tarde"

    # game/pantallas.rpy:10
    old "Evening"
    new "Noche"

    # game/pantallas.rpy:10
    old "Night"
    new "Media noche"
Not sure that this solve all your problems or even a good solution.. But I used it when I had same problem.

Actually all that works well, buy Im going to change the parts of the code that doesn’t translate properly and see if this solve it

Can't find this piece of code in your public version. I can look on the bug if you can share the ver with the saves near\ exact on the bug. I assume that the bug from the youtube video occures on pc-win cause you either have problems with filenames or "really some weird shit". Anyway it is hard to guess without code and reproduced bug ...
