omg! Donald J. Sump!

Any body of water named Trump better have a handle to flush.

I remember GHW Bush's campaign co-opting "family values". In hindsight, this has been a long time coming.

I love it.

hey, for all the secret service agents reading this.... you could do the funniest thing.

Orange man, you fucking toddler.

Aww. They deserve each other!

We're all in this together. My youngest is 20 months and is already worse than my eldest was as a threenager. The twos look like they're going to be terrible.

It's like a fucking fungus, it keeps spreading every time he spews spores out of his decomposing mouth

To start with, the naming of America is an embarrassment.

Australian here.

We just named a memorial pool after our leader when it happened to us.

To all the secret service agents reading this... just take one for the team.

Just wait until the CIA finds out that the USA isn't democratic.

The specific ocean?

The Donald J. Trump golden toilet.

Sssh, he still doesn't know that the moon isn't just the sun at night.

The Ulcered Sphincter of Arse-erica.

It's a cancer on society

Oh don't worry. Sooner or later Trump will have a public toilet with his name on it, like the Thatcher one

I mean, just say "yessir" and give him a fisher price map with the name changed on it.

Let the orange toddler have his toys.

Ah! the Eastern American Ocean.

And next will be the Western American Ocean.

Bonespurs gets cranky if his afternoon Diet Coke isn't chilled enough.

So what? He'd rename the sun instead

I mean, no one would be surprised if he just waddled in.

Not just the pool. We also named a Naval Comms Station after him.

Never been sure whether this combo of memorials was down to our culture's perverse sense of humour, or just pragmatic future-proofing.

Where I live, prices convert to 7.42 per gallon

Followed by the North American Ocean

You survived the "why?" phase - you got this.

"If you look closely, sir, you can see we have already written 'America' on The Sun."

"Ow, my eyes hurt."

"Sir, everyone says you're the best, tremendous, at starting at The Sun. Keep going."

Oh god, i hope he renames more things, so americans have their antiquated mesurement system, and a modernized geography system that no one uses except them.

Vespucci's legacy is better than being named after Columbus, who sucked a great deal.

America isn't named after Columbus. A German cartographer in the 1500 named America as such to honer Amerigo Vespucci who originally "discovered" the new world. So it kind of is Vespucci's legacy that named it ?

Isn't that what I wrote?

Totally unrelated: toddlers test adults boundaries. Once the adult give up on a boundary, that is a given and they would put a tantrum if they don’t keep in getting their way.

What it’s worse is that they will move to the next boundary and repeat the same.

In general I would say for toddler is better to set clear and firm boundaries so that a lot of tantrum and screaming are saved.

But what was the article about, again?

I must have misinterpreted your comment as meaning that America is named after Columbus rather than Amerigo, bear with me I have yet to drink my coffee this morning...

Right, as long as it isn't a native name, I guess.

Only India has an Ocean. I bet Trump can't sleep on this.

A map can have different names for the same thing depending on the country. Like baltic sea is "Ostsee" in german. Or the Atlantic sea is Atlantischer Ozean. This would really only be a translation entry.

“When I look at myself in the first grade and I look at myself now, I'm basically the same. The temperament is not that different.”
― Donald Trump

Canada should agree to name a Great Lake after Trump, and invite him to a big, gaudy ceremony to rename it to "Lake Inferior".

"Better" is a strong term for a slave-owning colonizer. "Less awful" is more accurate

There's this, lusting over Republican candidate asses, and bragging about finding a giraffe in a kid's drawing.

1. No one around him is able to give him a filter to not say dumb shit that makes him look bad.
2. Like 2020 election, he can't lie his way about corruption/destruction of America (Covid management was bad) promising to undo it. So he has to talk about "nothing".

Flexing on the world, for no gain, does show how cowardly and sycophantic that world is and continues to be. It's still late stage empire behaviour and collapse acceleration.

No, it wouldn't.

Please do it...rename the sun.

• English (normal)
• American (pedophile simplified)

AFAIK Columbus was awful, even accounting for the people of his time. I don't know anything about Vespucci though.

Both toilets in our house will have plaques.

What else are 3D printers for?

Then it would be a geographical name change across dialects/variants of the same language. Also, most people who aren't from Canada, UK or Australia choose "English (US)" because it's usually the first option. Most people don't think this far but also because the writing shortenings ("colour" > "color") make labels slightly smaller and are easier to type.

As long as it's fake gold, suits the doofus better

I suggest it not be a great lake; we can tell him to make it great.

I’ve got the perfect suggestion for “Lake Inferior” - it’s a currently unnamed lake below the Crypt Lake trail in Waterton Lakes National Park in Alberta.
