Sure. Its all a fucking joke, now.
Seems like it’s time for a name change of the USA in Spanish.
¡Los Estados Unidos!
La tierra del hombre naranja
Estados Estupidos —> Stupid States
Estados Jodidos more like.
Estados Unidos de México
Deadnaming geography, so hot right now.
Man, I know English. I know some Spanish, high school drop out level, and I have some “real world” experience from working in a hotel… but man, I don’t think I can change languages on the fly.
Mi Espanol es muy mal. Muy, muy, mal.
Malo* 😬
Like they said, muy mal.
I’m only surprised he didn’t demand it be called the Gulf of Trump.
“Trump’s gulf hurricane wipes out south”
You’re not wrong… especially since he feels the need to plaster his name on everything. But don’t give him ideas…
On that note, can we collectively change “trump card” to being a bad thing?
Trump Toilet Bowl
The gulf of trump is the empty space between his ears.
Why is he thinking so small? Why not rename the Pacific Ocean to American Ocean? China and Japan have seas and India has an Ocean.
The Atlantic Ocean belongs to Atlanta. To make it sound more like how it’s pronounced by the locals, we’ll rename it the A-lan-nic Ocean.
The American Ocean is a lot of things, but pacific isn’t one of them
Freedumb Fries anyone?
Gulf of Freedom
No, we won’t. That’s stupid.
We won’t. That’s true enough. For tradition alone we won’t; Just like we don’t change to the metric system.
But it’s not exactly stupid. There are several countries and two continents that surround The Gulf. It’s not unreasonable to name it after both the continents that make it. I’m not even sure how it became named after just a single country anyway.
Really it’s just another stupid fucking distraction that shouldn’t get any attention from any of us.
Let me tell you about the Persian gulf and the South China Sea.
When the gulf was named by European explorers in the 1580s, Mexico (as a region colonized by Spain) was the most important thing in the main land. Some Spanish maps from the same time period also called it Gulf of New Spain.
But it’s not exactly stupid. There are several countries and two continents that surround The Gulf. It’s not unreasonable to name it after both the continents that make it.
Not quite, the gulf is entirely contained within North America and borders the US, Mexico, and Cuba.
Once you go around the Yucatan Peninsula, you’re no longer in the gulf, you’re in the Yucatan Channel and then the Yucatan Basin portion of the Caribbean Sea.
But you’re right in that it’s not exactly stupid, just eyeballing it, it looks like the US has more square miles on the gulf than Mexico does.
Everybody else in the world still gonna call it Gulf of Mexico
Stop paying attention to the stupid shit they’re saying to distract from the evil shit they’re gonna be doing.
I’m not going to be paying attention to any of it. Fascism 101. But the fascist scum have apparently “won” so here we are.
America is a write-off. Let the filth destroy it.
I’m not going to be paying attention to any of it
Cool, then don’t.
Why hang around and tell people to stop caring?
If you want to stop caring, just do it. But that’s clearly not what’s happening.
I was merely pointing out that flooding the citizens with insane bullshit is fascism 101 and that’s exactly what the tangerine toddler and his band of filthy fucking nazis will be doing 24/7 for the next (hopefully) 4 years.
Nothing we can do about it except watch some Mario Brothers in the meantime.

That is an opinion.
And it’s fine if it’s yours, but why are you going around trying to convince people?
If you’re right, it doesn’t matter. If you’re wrong, you’re helping trump.
But in either case, just go watch your Mario Brothers, that’s what you said you wanted to do, so just go do it. No one is stopping you, you’re choosing not to right now.
Ok so in Mario Brothers, Luigi is the best character.

Let me guess, he posted that to twitter?
See how that works?
If you read literally the first sentence of the article you would not need to guess.
Tell me you don’t get it without telling me you don’t get it.
Half of me wants to start keeping a personal tally of all the bullshit that comes out of this embarrassment while the other half just wants to cancel my internet to avoid the emotional trauma.
I’m also at this crossroads. I think a sub for link-dumping would be great because he doesn’t deserve the time of day to curate him a list that nobody will read.
Option 2 is more satisfying
Burying your head in the sand is satisfying? You do you I guess…
Its a fine line innit? The hope is that I can stay up to date on “stuff” without being terminally online or interacting with the soon to be constant barrage of nonsense like “Rename the gulf of Mexico!” or “We’re buying Greenland!” as well as the endless hand wringing and ultimately pointless reactions to the crisis du jour.
Like Twitter I’ll misname it out of disrespect.
doesn’t even break the top-10 of stupidest shit to come out of his mouth this week.
I already call him “ahahahahahah”, and it’s ok, people understand immediately
The Democratic People’s Republic of Korea
We’re listing names that are intentionally deceptive right?
