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?

    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.
