I saw someone saying on social media thay we should call Lake Superior "Gitchigami" while we're renaming lakes, and now I've had "The Wreck of The Edmund Fizgerald" in my head for an hour.

Gitchigami is literally Superior
someone else here said the only people who should be allowed to name landmarks/mountains/bodies of water/etc are native folks and I agreed so hard I collapsed in on myself into a black hole. not just for lake ontario now, but mt. mckinley was once denali and that's objectively superior, for example.
