I had a realization yesterday. We currently have Huron, Ontario, Michigan, Erie, and Superior. After this stupid change, we will have Superior, Huron, America, Michigan, and Erie. We can go from teaching grade school children HOMES to SHAME.
I say this as a Canadian, who like many of my fellow CountryPeople, can hold a grudge forever... "Century" better be defined as "To Infinity and Beyond".
Resident Indigenous pedant here. Ontario is from a Wendat word. Wendat is an Iroquoian language, like English is a Germanic language or Castillian is a Romance language.
I am back on this one for the moment. WHY the GOOD FUCK is this being covered as a SERIOUS NEWS ITEM by every media outlet? It was all over the news last night like it was some... real thing! WHEN will they actually start saying "This is another example of the glaring mental incompetence and narcissism of Mr. Trump."
Stop giving the man the spotlight for this garbage!!! DO YOUR JOB!!!!

Surprisingly, the shells spell out 86 47!
I haven't seen anything like this since Emperor Caligula declared war on the god Neptune and collected seashells as loot.
Me, before coffee: “Wait, he drew a *duck* on a map? Is Lake Ontario shaped like a duck?”
“… oh.”
And I thought Soros was unattractive.
It is so much fun having a Preznit who is a dementia-addled fucking moron (with dementia).
As someone who uses Canva every day in my job, that map is some serious amateur shit.

Could Donald Trump sign an executive order removing himself from office as President of the United States?
And just like that, the Strait of America opened to oil tankers.
Cheap bully throws tantrum over being ignored.
I note the intelligence doesn't have to be good.
So sad and humiliating to have this jackass lead our country.
The Canadians (and their government officials) have shot off a few responses, including the possibilities of "Lake Epstein" and "Lake Natalie."

I like Lake Obama. It would keep the "O," preserve the HOMES mnemomic, AND piss Trump off.
The governor of Michigan, Gretchen Whitmer, liked that first idea.
