Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum wrote a letter asking Google to reject the U.S. decision to rename the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America on its mapping service.

    Sorry Google. I don’t use any of your services at all, ever. It is the Gulf of Mexico and it will remain the Gulf of Mexico. just like fench fries are not freedom fries, they’re french fries and french toast is not Texas toast, it’s french toast. Google can take a long leap off of a very tall bridge.

    I trust that others will maintain proper naming conventions when publishing maps and not buckle under the pressure of a thin skinned toddler and his cult followers.

          Texas toast is extra thick usually garlic buttered toast. It’s pretty friggin delicious.

        French toast made from Texas Toast bread is pretty fucking good. You can jam like an egg and a half in one slice.

      Nah, they’ll delay it by a couple months and people will have forgotten
