i really hope a Democrat wins, only so i can see them say “we can’t just roll everything back that he did, what if republicans decided to be mean to democrats!?”
Hilariously, a few Democrats have already openly said that they wouldn’t roll them back.
right on schedule
Really they’re saving time by doing it now instead of later when they’re gonna be busy signing checks for Israel and ICE
In today’s news: ratchet wrench still functional.
Ratchet effect - when the right (inevitably) overplay their hand and are voted out, the center-“left” come in, and their job is to block any attempts to shift things leftward.
But that’s usually for the shit their handlers actually give a damn about. I doubt their corporate overlords care what the lake and gulf are called. It’s moved from a political agenda to being a Pavlovian response.
They should pull an Obama era trick and make everything Trump did permanent. That will surely make suburban Republicans approve of them.
Rename Mt Everest to Mt America. The Indian Ocean to the American Ocean. Fuck it. Just rename Canada as America 2. Just go apeshit
Every person, place, or thing shall hereby be referred to as America. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
I know it’s not good opsec but just wanted to let y’all know I wanted to meet other Hexbears in my small town of America, in America County, a few miles away from America River where you can see the border my state of America shares with its neighboring states America, America, and America
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
Yawn, can we get a new bit, please? He already tried this with the Gulf of Mexico and it wasn’t that funny the first time.
I wonder what his thoughts are on New England
Should rename it Old America.
when you can’t address systemic issues, do meaningless self-aggrandizing bullshit
Ontario is a term thought to have Indigenous origins, either Ontarí:io, a Huron (Wyandot) word meaning “great lake”,[16] or possibly skanadario, which means “beautiful water” or “sparkling water” in the Iroquoian languages.[17]
The Ojibwe word for it is “the leading sea” Niigami-gitchigami although my ancestors lived further west, naming Superior “anashinabewi-gitchigami” for themselves. The “Gitchigami” part (spellings vary and I’m bad at remembering the current version) means “sea” or “big lake” or “ocean” or all three, really
Anashinabewi-gitchigami (or even “lake anashinabewi”) sounds so much cooler than “lake superior”. I know it’s a tired thing to advocate for but I really feel like all american toponyms need to be renamed back to their native american versions, maybe picking the tribe that was closest to the toponym (or the coolest one) when there are different names.
i call a motion that we ignore this as completely as we can.
Cassius Dio, LXXII.15.2-6:
He actually ordered that Rome itself should be called Commodiana, the legions Commodian, and the day on which these measures were voted Commodiana. Upon himself he bestowed, in addition to a great many other names, that of Hercules. Rome he styled the “Immortal, Fortunate Colony of the Whole Earth”; for he wished it to be regarded as a settlement of his own. In his honour a gold statue was erected of a thousand pounds weight, representing him together with a bull and a cow. Finally, all the months were named after him, so that they were enumerated as follows: Amazonius, Invictus, Felix, Pius, Lucius, Ælius, Aurelius, Commodus, Augustus, Herculeus, Romanus, Exsuperatorius.
For he himself assumed these several titles at different times, but “Amazonius” and “Exsuperatorius” he applied constantly to himself, to indicate that in every respect he surpassed absolutely all mankind superlatively; so superlatively mad had the abandoned wretch become. And to the senate he would send messages couched in these terms: “The Emperor Caesar Lucius Ælius Aurelius Commodus Augustus Pius Felix Sarmaticus Germanicus Maximus Britannicus, Pacifier of the Whole Earth, Invincible, the Roman Hercules, Pontifex Maximus, Holder of the Tribunician Authority for the eighteenth time, Imperator for the eighth time, Consul for the seventh time, Father of his Country, to consuls, praetors, tribunes, and the fortunate Commodian senate, Greeting.” Vast numbers of statues were erected representing him in the garb of Hercules. And it was voted that his age should be named the “Golden Age,” and that this should be recorded in all the records without exception.
This isn’t even funny its just cringe and weird
permission to lib out for a second:
this changes the mnemonic you use to remember the names of the Great Lakes to SHAME
Should’ve named it Lake New York. Even his antics are sunsetting.
Renaming Washington D.C. to Washington America because it’s not a District of Columbia, it’s a district of the United States.
Washington America
TRUMMMP WASHTINGTON AMMERICA
also, please fucking die.
Really glad Biden and the dems did nothing to curtail his abuse of Executive Orders. They even gave him a pre-emptive blanket pardon the entire family. But ya know
