Okay, Michael Reeves, let's make it happen!

Lol, I've never heard of this guy before. Has he done this already? 😂
He is a very foul-mouthed robotics YouTuber who builds various horrific devices along this type of logic like this Roomba That Screams When it Bumps Into Stuff or this Robot Dog that Pees Beer
I'd share some, but I've forgotten all about them.

Alright, hear me out. We go with the 10 months of 35 days and a special month of 15 days, but the 15 days is just one giant celebration. Just 15 days of nothing but arts and crafts and hanging out with friends. (For Context)
Enter the Igbo calendar, a balanced calendar without the particular complications of the Western Julian/Gregorian calendars.
The calendar has 13 months in a year (Afo), 7 weeks in a month (Onwa), and 4 days of Igbo market days (Afor, Nkwo, Eke, and Orie) in a week (Izu) plus an extra day at the end of the year, in the last month.
I was about to post about it, as a suggested replacement for the POSIX time standard, now I have to think that our imaginary month off is at stake.
