Why?
Every map projection has some inaccuracies and thing that they’re good and bad at. The Mercator is good at preserving shape and distance, which used to be quite important for navigating around the world, which was important for colonization. Other maps have accurate size but inaccurate shapes. The Mercator projection isn’t the worst, but less suited for the needs of today. We should all probably just use globes. The UN should also use globes.
I partly just thought that going over what it would require could be interesting. You’re right, he can try to make contractors do that. But that doesn’t mean that citizens of either country are actually going to honor the name. Sure, Google and Apple will change their maps to suck him off, but nearly nobody is ever going to unironically call it Lake America. I live in Alabama, a deeply conservative state that borders the Gulf of Mexico. Even here, nobody calls it the Gulf of America. Odds are, he’ll forget about this shit just as quickly.
Interesting. So why exactly is a distinction made? Some political reason from the past?
I didn’t forget, but I’m pretty sure Trump has. I don’t think he’s talked about it in quite a while. I’ve never heard anybody actually call it the Gulf of America, and I live in the Deep South. I’m not sure it’s even used by the departments in the executive branch. This will probably be a similar situation.
I’m well aware. I meant approval from both the congress of the United States and the government of Canada. I just wrote it a little awkwardly.
Yeah, I’m pretty sure the United States can’t change the name of a body of water that’s shared between multiple countries. If it’s not that, it still hasn’t gotten any sort of congressional approval.
Edit: Lake Michigan is the only one that’s fully within the US. The others are patrolled by both the US Coast Guard and the Canadian Coast Guard, both have the ability to arrest anyone on either side of the border. The state governments that border the lakes have some power over them, but they’re held in trust for public use. The International Joint Commission resolves any disputes regarding them. I’m not quite sure what would have to go into changing the name of Lake Ontario, but it would at least require Canadian approval and US congressional approval, perhaps even approval from the state of New York and the province of Ontario. Oh yeah, this is also completely stupid and should under no circumstances actually happen.
Big means more to pet and hold. Big rodent is best rodent.
The boy on the left is Robin, the boy to the right is Superboy. Looks like it might be from this show called Young Justice.
It’s both, but there’s a considerable amount of overlap.
And don’t let them read the nasty bits with the genocides. Or the part where the teenage girls rape their father. Or the part where David kills off a guy to fuck his wife. Or the-
We just die and then we’re gone. Reincarnation could be a comforting idea while we’re alive, but even if it’s real, we’ll never know.
Is Candy Crush woke or is it Nazi shit?
Does Lego Star Wars fit under woke or is it Nazi shit?
Cute? How could you call a nazi cute? You see that salute you stupid fuck? Get this shit off my goddamn screen or I find your address.
It has a 9 in front, 9 is bigger than 3, that makes it three times the size, checkmate liberals
You’re right, this is almost more impressive. Did you see the arena? It’s probably as big as a rocket, I think, maybe. That makes it way more impressive.
Prager said that in one of the videos from the perspective of a baby and everyone thought it was really funny.
Yes, I do that after nearly all of them.
