    Idk, I think my only favorite thing about the whole debacle is that almost literally everyone just ignored musk’s whole name change thing, and still call it twitter and tweets. Because everyone recognizes what a fucking stupid name X is lmfao.

      One of my wife’s friends gets really upset when people call it Twitter for some reason. She doesn’t even use it. Just gets irate and reminds everyone the name was changed so if you want people to know what you’re talking about you should call it X.

      Strange hill to choose…

        “Do you use twitter?”

        wifes friend

        “IT’S CALLED X NOW!!! NOBODY KNOWS WHAT TWITTER IS!!! IF YOU WANT PEOPLE TO KNOW WHAT YOU’RE TALKING ABOUT, CALL IT X!!!”

        looks at her, looks back at the wife

        “So do you use twitter?”

        wifes friend

        “NOBODY USES TWITTER ANYMORE SINCE ELON MUSK BOUGHT IT!!!”

        “Yeah, ok. You’re right, but not for the reasons you think.”

      I guess everyone ignoring it allows me to remind people it’s gone to shit.

      if everyone leaned into it I wouldn’t be able to interject.
