Pro tip: It's ok to forget trans folks' names as long as you don't deadname then \o

Oh no someone forgot my name, asked me what it was and then used it.

• no trans person ever

Edit: I tend to use the same name for everybody: you.

And you're still less transphobic than most conservatives

So, I think originally, they went from: The Gulf of We Gave Ourselves Permission to Destroy the environment Unchecked, but it was too exclusive, so in order to be more diverse, they chanced it to, The Gulf of We Gave Ourselves Permission to Destroy EVERYTHING Unchecked.

Now, they could have stopped here, but because of their penchant for wasting everyone’s time and money by doing things that do nothing, they knew they needed to spend more time being ineffectively inept.

So it was then that it was decided to change it to The Gulf of We Don’t Give a Shit and by the Way, Mexico Never Paid for our Border Wall, so This is What They Get! Fuck Your Feelings Lib- only they realized that aside from the “fuck your feelings” bit, these options would be too confusing for their base to understand- and would also prove difficult to say with a slack-jaw.

Sooooo, they finally decided to shorten it to something that would encompass the ideology of all of these names combined:

The Gulf of America.”

Nope

It’s twitter until Musk acknowledges his trans daughter’s rights.

nope. just x-phobic.

You should refer to it as Shitter. Same thing, different pronunciation.

Deadnaming Twitter is praxis and actively supporting trans people, given its owners hostility towards them

Considering that their chromosomes contain more triplets than orchestral sheet music, I think you’d probably lose them after the first sentence.

She was always of Mexican heritage, and she was only promoting Mexican heritage. I didn’t know she was American until a number of years ago, when she happened to turn American, and now she wants to be known as American. So I don’t know, is she Mexican or is she American?” the former president said.

Lots of people used freedom fries. Most importantly, though, I distinctly remember it appearing on our school lunch menus. I lived in a very blue-tinged purple town at the time.

Which means, I suspect, that schools will be forced to use the new name.

I do like that "Mexico" and "America" follow the Latin convention for gendered nouns and that the name changed genders in the switch. We should thank them for not deadnaming her (the gulf). Watch their expressions as the rationalization strains to address the cognitive dissonance.

Before anyone points out that "Mexico" comes from Nahuatl roots, you can miss me with that. It's clearly a latinized word via Spanish.

Hmmm, I've thought of this whole thing as incredibly stupid, but maybe oil spills in the "Gulf of America" would be treated more seriously by Americans? Like, there might accidentally be a positive to this.
