Jan 1 is New Year’s Day only by social convention. I should start a movement to celebrate New Year’s Day on a random date like July 22.

kayo bahala. the Chinese and the Muslims don’t celebrate it then. we’ll celebrate, no matter what :p
When I start my own country, I’ll just have my own calendar. And tourists will need higher math to determine what day of the week it is.
They’ll go into restaurants and be all, “We’ll have your daily special” and they’ll get served bear stew and complain that’s not their order
Then the waiter points out that it’s not actually Tuesday and that they miscomputed an integral therefore it was actually Thursday
and then there’ll be an app that does it within a week
