I'm sorry, but this really is a 'nuke the entire site from orbit' situation. The loss of the southern US and Central America will, of course, be mourned as a terrible loss, but it'll be worth it to make sure those things are dealt with. Permanently.
That only gives you 364 daya per year and we need just fractionally less than 365.25. You end up needing an extra day every year, and if we want to keep midnight in the middle of the night, and extra full day every four years (except when we don't). Adding those sorts of bodges onto an otherwise elegant system would be awful to work with.
Instead, I propose we build giant rocket engines pointing straight up on the equator, and adjust the Earth's orbit until one orbit around the sun takes exactly 364 days.
Net approval at a point in time is the percentage of voters who approve minus the percentage of voters who disapprove, it's not a delta from an earlier reading.
For net approval to be negative, more people must disapprove then approve.
That, or having bought their first property long enough ago, and in the right place, that it's appreciated massively more than the place in the country that they've got their eye on. The property ladder is, possibly was, a thing.
First aid is what keeps the casualty alive long enough for second aid. Second aid is trained medical profesionals working in a medical setting, so a hospital or even the ambulace crew that take over after you stopped the casualty leaking too much.
I'm pretty sure the supreme court ruling was carefully worded to not require them to bring him back, but 'fascilitate' his return, which gave them enough wiggle room to say they wouldn't stop his return, so they were in conpliance.
It was a lower court tgat required his return, the supreme court ruling overrode that.

Yes. We normally count in 'base 10', which means each digit can go from 0 to 9 as we count up, then the digit to its left increases by one. The rightmost position is the units, the next the tens (because we use base 10), the next hundreds (or 10 times 10), and so on, with each position worth 10 times the one to its right. So the number 12 means you have 2 units plus 1 ten. 123 means 3 units, 2 tens, and 1 hundred.
Binary is 'base 2', so as we count up each digit can only go from 0 to 1 before incrementing the position to its left, and each position is worth 2 times the one to its right. So 1 still means one, but 10 is 0 units plus 1 two, and 100 is 0 units, 0 tens and 1 four, totalling 4.
Also, that shop that sells completely random stuff (chandeliers, dolls, weird statues, horrible carpets and so much more junk), never seen it open but have been there for like at least 30 years.
We had one of those. It turns out it was owned by a rental agent, and he just used it to store the random stuff he'd use to furnish appartments with to rent out.
Oh God, is everyone looking at me weird when I drink soda wrong?
If you're not holding it in the crook of your elbow, lifting your arm, and pouring it onto your outstretched tongue, then at least one of us is doing it wrong, and I think it's you, and everyone is silently judging you for your weird way of drinking. They don't drink with their elbows probably because they don't want to embarass you.
This is an interesting prompt. Critically it seems like you definitely aren't omnipotent, so whilst you can try to influence and teach the new inhabitants, there's nothing stopping them simply ignoring you and doing something else.
Rather than some wanting to just not contribute, I'd be more concerned by a group deciding to focus their efforts on building weapons and simply taking what they want from others.
Fully automated luxury gay space communism is certainly an ideal, but it is extremely vulnerable to hostile forces until it gets large enough and willing enough to excert eqivalent force in return. Hostile forces can be military, ideological, or resource limit based. Responding to all of those, is a massive challenge.
It'd be pretty trivial to do the same here, 1700 or so comments over 'several months', is less than 25 a day. No need even for bot posting, have the LLM ingest the feed, spit out the posts and have the intern make accounts and post them.
