You have to cycle out old fucks to get progress.

After my generation dies you might be able to move forward in some of those fronts.

I will say, about the school times, that the biggest issue is the parent schedules, not the kids. Shifting times makes it much harder on parents, unless you also push tradwife-ish values: one parent must give up their career to care for the kids. It's a sticky topic without an easy solution.

Edit the responses about the school times illustrate my point. I'm not saying there's no solution; I'm saying there's no easy solution that isn't contentious.

There's an easy solution: Push workdays later into the day so a 9-5 becomes an 11-7.

2 Weeks every year. No, you don't always get to choose which ones. Yes, they are also your sick days.
