So will I, emulating you, while thinking of it privately as the Gulf of Scalzico.
I personally will continue to use "Gulf of Mexico" because our president is a wrathful felonious nincompoop with the intellect of paramecium and I do not consent to his cartographic buffoonery
Encyclopædia Britannica will continue to use ‘Gulf of Mexico’ for a few reasons:

-We serve an international audience, a majority of which is outside the U.S.

-The Gulf of Mexico is an international body of water, and the U.S.’s authority to rename it is ambiguous.

Instead of endlessly scrolling streaming services, they should make a fake Blockbuster store for millennials where you can bring your family and browse all the VHS boxes on the little shelves for 45 minutes and then check one out and bring it home and scan it and then your tv plays it

This is written by the bishop who stood up to Orange Voldemort. Everyone should be buying this. It's available on Amazon for $14. I'm an atheist and I'm buying it. #booksky

I love this so much!

At the inauguration, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson wore a distinctive collar adorned with cowrie shells, which are believed to offer protection from evil in African traditions.

This choice mirrors the late Justice Ginsburg’s practice of using collars to convey a message.

While you gorge yourself on turkey and the fixings tomorrow, please don't forget about the Indigenous people who were screwed over by Europeans. Also, try to find a way to help those who are hungry, ill, and/or cold. Let's take care of each other and of Mother Earth!
