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 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.
