The Georgian calendar we use sucks, a month is not a standard unit of measurement, I prefer the 13 month system due to all the months being equal in length. It’s basically agreed upon that the new month would be called Sol and it would be between June and July. Abolishing the names of the months and renaming them something more numerical seems like too much work, same for the weekdays. Also leap days would be much cooler as they wouldn’t be apart of any month and I’ll support anything that would give me more holiday pay.
Anyways I would rank adopting the metric system in the USA higher and banning single use plastic lower. What about you?

we just need one more calendar reform bro i swear bro this time it will work please bro just one more calendar reform broWe have to retvrn to the ancient Roman calender with 10 months of 30 days and a completely unorganized block of 60ish days in winter when you just stop keeping track. We need a calender where the priests have to randomly add extra months every couple of years. We need a calender where you can fuck up so bad that you need a 450 day year to get it back on track.
We shouldn't have a cyclical calendar at all, it should just be a new number all the time. You have lunar days and sidereal days. You can have days/months that are based on other motions. Just stop with the 16th and 17th century shit already. Keep the second because it's useful. It's already defined by particle decay. Now just count seconds. Your dates would be independent of any planetary motion. You would have the same date on any planet. Computers already do this.
banning plastic highest, adopting the revolutionary calendar is the same level as doing metric because that's the metric calendar. give me months whose names are the expected weather, give me a 6 days party at the end of every year
give me months whose names are the expected weather
So are the months opposite in the southern hemisphere?
More important: Building world communism
Less important: Helping the nazis out of the pit.
redoing the months would be nice but it's by no means important
I suggest we keep the calendar exactly the same for at least the next few decades, so that people can (e.g.) compare October weather now to October weather when they were a kid.
That's 28 days a month with newyears being day 0 right? Do leap years just become a double day 0?
Also don't give landlords ideas as I'm sure monthly rents will go down in response.
Techwise it wouldn't be too bad, but we haven't even decided on a new epoch time keeping or solution that doesn't just gain us another 60 years yet, so we'd have to have that figured out before applying a new calendar ontop of it. (if yall don't know about the y2k38 issue, it's a fun one, with no real solution in place to guarantee literally everything with a chip in it doesn't break)
I would love that! Esp. if we count the yearly bonus day and the leapday as days outside of a week that way each day of the week could be calculated from modulus of the day of the month.
Only one thing ranks higher than this for me and that is the adoption of Swatch™ Internet Time.
A lovely and bountiful Quintidi 5 Frimaire to all who observe the correct calendar
Let's do what Japanese and presumably Chinese does and just name the months number + month(moon)
It is currently the 25th of the eleventh month
If you wanna get fancy you could call them moons
Eleventh Moon
Either 12 or 13 lunar months rotating on a 19 year cycle determined by yelling.
