No one asking where this template is from. sigh Where’s it from my good people?
Random Instagram post from one of the women. No sexuality in the original context. We all just see what we wanna see 🤷♂️
No, don’t use the sexy meme template for this change. It’s just a dumb dick measuring move. It doesn’t deserve that honor.
The tuba meme would be appropriate.
I upvote this meme format every time
Can’t wait for Apple+Google to change USA to „small penis land“ as per my decree wich changed the name to represent the population and acknowledges the fact that there not the only America, but also central and south as well as Canada and México
Will prices start going down now?
Of course. The name written on the map is what was keeping that huge inflation there on the US at 2%/y.
In all seriousness, periods of marked deflation are generally not economically prosperous times. The economy deflated more than 20% between 1929 and 1936. But we don’t call that period in time “The Really Cool American Price Drop.” It goes by another name I can’t think of right now, and it’s making me feel greatly depressed.
We shouldn’t be fighting for lower prices. We should be fighting for better wages that track with prices over time.
I was curious about Open Street Maps, since anyone can edit it.
Gulf of America comes up specifically as an official name for US, and there is also a note about how if you change the English name without agreement in the discussion then it will be reverted:
Discussion is here: https://community.openstreetmap.org/t/gulf-of-america-gulf-of-mexico/124571
It seems the general consensus is that the US have that as an official name, but it’s not the common English name so name:en stays as the Gulf of Mexico.
I was very happy to open up organic maps and see it still listed as Mexico.
I’m still trying to get out of Google maps.
OSM ftw
The more quickly the world decouples from the US, the better.
China world love to come in and fill this gap. But who will keep the shipping lanes free of piracy? They have the world’s largest navy.
who will keep the shipping lanes free of piracy?
You know the US isn’t patrolling the shipping lanes they don’t use right?
Also, no, they never managed to keep the shipping lanes free of piracy.
eh, they aren’t that different
For now
Even the german language version does this now.
How long until the US pull a China and attack mexican fishing boats?
Doing my part.
Apple at least aren’t showing me that dumb shit in Australia that Google is doing with parentheses:
Rolling out world wide. I moved to organic maps.
Source? Only reason I’m using Apple Maps in the first place is because I need public transport directions and it’s not Google Maps. Organic Maps doesn’t have them, and I don’t want to use the app my state gov puts out because the way it calculates connections is garbage. Most international PT-only apps don’t have my city even though it’s the biggest in Australia.
Don’t forget Microsoft with Bing maps. At least Google made this just for US users, they made it for everyone.
They aren’t afraid of negative attention, at least it’s some attention and people will know they have maps too
From Thailand and Singapore it shows as “Gulf of America (Gulf of Mexico)”
UK here. It’s the reverse for me.
Same for France
Yes, I’m checking now and that’s true, old info from me, yesterday from Spain was still Gulf of Mexico, now Gulf of Mexico (Gulf of America)… Well, tomorrow it will probably be Gulf of America for everyone, they are doing this progressively.
maps.me still keeping it so far, from OSM.

This is a very weird visual
Homophobe.
What?
With our new influx of Reddit trolling is it yet another all-time high.
Just because you know cartography is lying, doesn’t mean that you have to do it on purpose
