A True Perennial Calendar that works much better than the Julian, and can be Adapted with a Contest for Name Changes for Each Month and Day of the Week (Restday | Bestday Coin Flip resolves the otherwise difficult Re:Naming of Saturday and Sunday, each asserted as the Day after Ædam's Creation in the Ædamic Branches).

i would start with the Proposition that the 7th Month, which is formally named now after a bloody and utterly horrific alpha-male military dictator, should be called "Tea:ching" (Teaching or Tea, with both flexibly used, in the ∆ English Calendar). It could be "Teaching Herstory" or "Teaching History", or the "Her.story ⇌ His.story" Month. All those are interesting options, and would love to see calmpetition for the Best, Principle.ed Names for Each of the Months.

i would suggest that We can use "lifesavers.army calendar" as the Provisional Title of the Calendar, to help guide Naming toward the Core Imperatives under which We All Self-Organize, but as with all things, i know myself to not be the Wisest at Nomic Naming Questions of these kinds.
