What the fuck is this X thing? Sounds like a shitty version of Twitter, like the one that Trump is always ranting on.

It literally is twitter. It re-branded this week.

But Twitter is one of the best known brands on the internet. It would be mind-bogglingly stupid to just throw that away.

Why would anyone want to associate inane internet chatter with birdsong when they could simply associate it with porn? Elon has a very large....brain, and he wants to make sure you think of it as often as he does.

Rumor has it that our thoughts fill an aching void in his soul that can otherwise only be filled with apartheid emeralds or NFTs, but science has yet to find a way to test this hypothesis.
