I hate how the media started calling Facebook “Meta” and Twitter “X.” Shut the fuck up. Literally no one I’ve met in real life knows what fuck those are. (hexbear.net)

It's funny how often I've seen it referred to as X (Twitter). If you need the parentheses then the rebrand isn't really working.

personally though I support calling it X because it sounds stupid as hell and devalues the brand. if Musk wants to destroy all positive associations people had with his awful company then we should let him

Putting a big X on the left of every embedded xeet to trick you into trying to close it but you just end up on x
