Imagine spending 40 billion dollars on one of the most recognizable brands in history, so deeply embedded in the public consciousness that any other company would throw virgins into a volcano for a chance at that level of recognition, just to replace all of that branding with your own little name that everyone has been telling you sounds stupid for the last 25 years
Welcome to the mind of a narcissist.
i think that gives him too much credit. he’s just fucking dumb and bad at everything. he failed upwards so long because he wasn’t too visible in the public eye. now he’s terminally online and constantly embarrassing himself and his companies.
Dude thinks the cyber truck is cool, and not the dumbest fucking vehicle ever.
It’s so much so that every news article that quotes it still says “X, formerly Twitter”.
That’s because X means absolutely nothing. It’s a letter commonly used to fill in blanks. It’s an awful name for any company/brand.

I’ve seen and prefer “Twitter, now X”.
Yes, I mean how many companies get their brand turned into a verb?
It’s like someone buying Kleenex and going “Nope, it’s called K now.”
K is something very different LOL
At least K has something to do with Kleenex. It’s more like buying Coca-Cola and changing it to J
I’m personally a fan of his new site for twitter media: xvideos.
And the one dedicated to cute animal photos, xhamster.
You guys are joking but Elon is going to ruin porn sites next. Let’s see who has the last laugh then.
The only way he could ruin porn sites was if the site’s content were replaced with only videos of Elon gyrating his hips to Eye of the Tiger, while wearing one of those Borat bathing suits, never breaking eye contact with the camera.
Much simpler: His picture from the thumbnail of this post is always going to be next to the pornhub logo and his eyes are going to follow your mouse cursor.
I heard that he also moved the CDN for user-uploaded videos to xvideos.com
Not all of them. The cute ones are on xhamster.com
His newest social media venture is focused on a niche of extreme exploration, named the Xtreme Network for Xtraordinary Xploration. You can find it at xnxx.com.
Elmo thinks the “X” makes it “extra cool.”
Google X videos for more info
Ah yes, the everything-falling-apart-app
…and breaks it on privacy-preserving browsers
win-win I guess
We’ll definitely start calling it X now, definitely.
We should!
Stop humouring the assholes that are still on that bigoted network.
Every time someone calls it twitter, don’t give them the satisfaction of disassociating themselves from Musky’s X.
Oh so you’re an X’er. You like to Xeet a lot eh?
THIS IS AN X-PARROT!
The Twitter bird isnt dead, it’s just pining for the fjords
This dude is high.
So it’s available?
Doubtful. It will probably just redirect
He was dumb enough to let X expire, maybe he’ll do the same thing here.
eXtremely egregious.
I’ll give him credit on this: It’s not dead yet. I’m genuinely surprised about that.
Not for lack of trying from his part.
He’s doing his level best to kill it.
What a pitiful community this is.
Stop posting about Twitter
this isnt relevant to technology
Is this some type of advanced haiku
