Website Redesign in Progress (2018)
Redesign has begun: I have been meaning to a do a redesign for quite a while so I started to do so. Things are still a bit rough though, but getting better. I have found a theme that I like and spent a bit of time rearranging the menus which better, but not perfect yet.

I am going to write what I think is required for a successful world-wide secular calendar and for calendar reform. I will also list my reviews of the various calendar reform attempts too. I also have a spread sheet with point based ratings of the various Calendar Reform attempts, which also includes a comparison to our current world-wide secular calendar which is the Gregorian Calendar (Wikipedia). I have also posted a bunch of information, history, and issues with the Gregorian Calendar in my 45-page blog page on the Calendar Reform, so if you want to get the skinny on our calendar then please read through that post. It is a page turner, let me tell ya.

Analysis and Critique on the Henry-Hanke Permanent Calendar (HHPC)
After having posted my 45-page blog page on the Calendar Reform to a calendar reform group on Facebook I was asked for my comments on the fairly new Henry-Hanke Permanent Calendar (HHPC), which was released to the world last year (2017), I think.

What came to mind during that process was Leap Weeks vs Leap Days. I reaaally do NOT like Leap weeks. Here I will compare Leap Weeks to Leap Days so you can get an idea as to why they are problematic and NOT ideal to use:

A Reformed International Calendar (rIFC)
If you do not know what the International Fixed Calendar (IFC) is, why it matters, or why I would want to reform it, then please read my very large 45-page blog page on the Calendar Reform where I: first talk about the significant issues with our current Calendar, the Gregorian Calendar, and then talk about how the International Fixed Calendar (IFC) solves all of those issues. Towards the end of that large document I recommend some reforms to the IFC to help make it even better.

New Page: Calendar Reform
In over a decade of me trying to figure out why our world is so messed up there have been quite a few ideas I have come up with or have discovered when thinking about how to make the world a simpler or better place, reform such as: time, metrics, language, culture, economy, and many others. However, here is one area of reform which you may have not ever considered, because it is such an integral part of our everyday life: Calendar Reform.
I had originally written about this topic for my micronational work (Republic of Talossa) in April of 2006, so this rewrite is a fairly significant expansion of my previous work, as well as being an attempt to put this idea before a much larger audience through my personal blog. My previous work was about 1,300 words and this one is approximately 13,000 words because, now, I am attempting to show you how and why and not just tell you, which I hope will be powerful!
Why do we need calendar reform you ask? Well, Hopefully, I can make that case here, so settle in for a ride that is going to ask you to think A LOT about our calendar, which we take for granted and give very little thought to about how we plan things and how it affects us in our daily lives.

Introduction Here is a quick campaign description I came up with for a new game which was especially convenient now that the Fate Horror Toolkit just came out last week!

New Page: For My Asgardian Resources
I do not write about my involvement in micronationalism often, basically never. However, I have put together a page to gather my posts since I joined Asgardia in November 2017. I have been involved enough recently that I needed to aggregate my writings and other related posts, that others may also benefit from. I have […]

Productivity and Motivation in a Resource Based Economy?
I am writing this post in response to a question posed by Tyler Suard (an economics major) in my Facebook thread about a RBE where I posted a link to my blog post The Cancer of Capitalism and Its Antidote. I am writing this post to help solidify my thoughts and understanding on this issue which also, conveniently, helps to answer his question about productivity and motivation in a Resource Based Economy (RBE).

The United States is not really a country anymore. It is the largest supranational corporate conglomerate with its own private military which is, by far, the largest in the world, and, by virtue, America’s largest export is terrorism. =(
