It was a great information gatherer if you're like me and found that the news on Twitter was 3 days ahead of MSM sites. Also for weather and transportation, it was super timely info. You have to know who to follow and who to ignore.
I saw that Musky Boy was having the word Twitter removed from headquarters but the idiots were blocking a lane of traffic with their cherry picker. The police came by and confirmed they did not have a permit to block the lane so they had to stop. I believe what was left said "er". Typical Musk. Thinks he can do whatever he wants without following laws, social norms, decency...
"(There was some speculation that he believed just changing his name would void his existing contract, but we assume lawyers explained the law to him.)"
Clearly that wouldn't work. Prince would have to let them know that the contract was not signed by Prince the citizen or Prince the corporation, but by Prince the agent for the individual Prince.
We should stop calling them "tweets," at least when Musk does it. I think the proper term now should be "Xcretes." As in "Elon took to X and Xcreted all over the internet."
In college, I interned in a local politician’s office, and we received (for comment) the revamped logo for a municipality that began with M. There were snow-capped mountains nearby; so they put a line across the top of the M to make it look like mountains.
They passed it me, and the first thing I thought was that they looked just like tits. As an intern, however, I didn’t feel like I should say anything—particularly that—and I passed the artwork on to the next person.
Nobody was saying anything. They were just admiring it or kind of shrugging. Then it was handed to the office manager, who’d been there forever, and she took one look at said something like, “Jesus, they’re tits. How much did they pay for this?”
You could see this wave of relief go through the room. Everybody could see it. They just didn’t want to admit to it. It was a fascinating exercise in group psychology, people not saying what they thought until it was revealed by a person considered authoritative and relatively objective.
The final logo changed, with no snow-caps and one peak of the M larger than the other.
Hello! I am from the city that recently humiliated itself publicly by endorsing ad slogans calling it “the city that rhymes with fun”. Also Elno’s mommy’s hometown. We resemble this remark.
Hmm. Maybe his mommy’s birthplace has some connection to his 5th grade sense of humour? I think I unlocked a special achievement or something.
(Vagina. We pronounce it so it rhymes with vagina. It was the contemporary pronunciation of the word “regina”. I swear!)
I do not have your discretion. When I was a newbie, someone asked me to take a look at a series of logos developed for the Lake Michigan Circle Tour. One I ruled out immediately, noting that Lake Michigan looked like a penis. They took that one out when they showed the other options to the boss.
See when our tourist people got in a room and endorsed the city that rhymes with fun they were not blessed with someone like you! If only. Nope, they took an ancient joke popularized by Deadpool and made it their slogan.
Now AP sounds like your everyday SovCit. "The entity known as [yours truly], not bound by any law or contract save to the Saudis, will demonstrate how to burn $44 bn in one daft move".
Elon Musk said the incident Wednesday when Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., appeared to freeze up during a news conference with other Republican leaders should warrant a "need" for a constitutional amendment.
Musk, who owns Twitter and other companies, tweeted early Thursday morning, "We need a constitutional amendment. This is insane."
Musk’s tweet did not provide specifics on what the potential amendment would say or do.

Names change.
Prince had at least a good reason to do it.
Elno, on the other hand, is just a dumbass with money.
God, Prince was fantastic.
Shuhada' Sadaqat has died.
At least Prince produced some decent music. The app formerly known as Twitter has always been a garbage fire.

You just have to avoid the occasional Nazi.
Don't forget the cat videos. And doggo videos. And other animal videos. Can you guess how I spend my time?

Elon’s ‘Zero Tolerance’ Policy On CSAM Apparently Does Not Apply To Conspiracy Theorist Accounts He Likes
https://www.techdirt.com/2023/07/27/elons-zero-tolerance-policy-on-csam-apparently-does-not-apply-to-conspiracy-theorist-accounts-he-likes/
I saw a reference to that earlier, how come they assume everybody knows what CSAM is?
Maybe El Douche is on to something here with the X?

X, ex twitter. Nothing confusing or redundant here.
Elno loves X. I mean, who has more x-periences with Xes than Elno? How many women wised up and dtmfa?
I guess that Q was a little too on the nose.

Have you seen his vests? Fringe everywhere. What about that?
As Pauline Kael once said of Lana Turner, "She isn't Madame X—she's Brand X!"
Speaking of which I made what I thought was a mildly amusing image only to find you can't post images here anymore.

You can post images to Chat or Notes with a link.
Yeah, people are swarming all over Chat Notes.
"Elon Musk, the Artist Currently known as Floppy Disk"
The "s" in Disk should be an "c".
Great minds think alike except- "Floppy Dick" FIFY!
We should stop calling them "tweets," at least when Musk does it. I think the proper term now should be "Xcretes." As in "Elon took to X and Xcreted all over the internet."
Would that make an anonymous tweet a Secrete?
And multiple are "EXcrement"
Someone referred to tweeting as "Xitting" and I fell over laughing. How does one pronounce that!?
I heard Elon wants everyone to call them Xeets.
Yeets

For term limits maybe?
*Shrug emoji*
Not big on specifics, our Elon
Not big on business operations, either.
