big calendar is the worst, do not trust these assholes…
“When I was alive, I believed — as you do — that time was at least as real and solid as myself, and probably more so. I said ‘one o’clock’ as though I could see it, and ‘Monday’ as though I could find it on the map; and I let myself be hurried along from minute to minute, day to day, year to year, as though I were actually moving from one place to another. Like everyone else, I lived in a house bricked up with seconds and minutes, weekends and New Year’s Days, and I never went outside until I died, because there was no other door. Now I know that I could have walked through the walls.
That would depend on how fast the planet was spinning after the orbital boost. I think the big day mob are playing the long game. First they’ll quietly support big calendar in order to first normalise the idea of boosting Earth’s orbit, then, when that plan is in motion, they’ll infiltrate the planning and engineering teams, tweak the rocket placements slightly, and when the rockets fire to increase our orbital velocity, they’ll also slow the spin just enough to lengthen the day.
The alternative is, they realise there’ll be more days per year, so they’ll get more work out of people between annual appraisals anyway. It might be that big calendar is just a front operation for big day anyway.
Bah, that’s just a sham solution pushed by big calendar to sell everyone new, bigger, calendars when the year gets longer.

I thought it was a big day sham to give us longer days meaning more working hours.
