rose (she). 23. australia.

I slept in and just woke up, so here's what I've been able to figure out while sipping coffee:

  • Twitter has officially rebranded to X just a day or two after the move was announced.
  • The official branding is that a tweet is now called "an X", for which there are too many jokes to make.
  • The official account is still @twitter because someone else owns @X and they didn't reclaim the username first.
  • The logo is 𝕏 which is the Unicode character Unicode U+1D54F so the logo cannot be copyrighted and it is highly likely that it cannot be protected as a trademark.
  • Outside the visual logo, the trademark for the use of the name "X" in social media is held by Meta/Facebook, while the trademark for "X" in finance/commerce is owned by Microsoft.
  • The rebranding has been stopped in Japan as the term "X Japan" is trademarked by the band X JAPAN.
  • Elon had workers taking down the "Twitter" name from the side of the building. He did not have any permits to do this. The building owner called the cops who stopped the crew midway through so the sign just says "er".
  • He still plans to call his streaming and media hosting branch of the company as "Xvideo". Nobody tell him.

This man wants you to give him control over all of your financial information.

not that i didn't want to believe you op, but i had to check that er thing out for myself, bc that just seemed too cartoonishly stupid to be real

but holy shit

obsessed with whatever corona and camilla have going on in ntn btw. 'she hates it when i use millie now.' 'my soul's mine. you give yourself away to anyone who doesn't want you.' 'i've kept your secrets before...you know that.' 'come back with me. leave the facility. before the negotiator arrives, come back with us.' the way corona introduces herself as cam's partner because she knows it would make her furious. ‘maybe you could be the one to melt her icy heart.’ the exes vibes are off the CHARTS but then when nona analyses the shit out of corona she says that actually all corona wants is for camilla to cuddle her ‘but not in a sexy way’ which has me poking them with a stick even MORE. i need to study them like bugs

The most beautiful effeminate monk with the cutest most demure Femboy tonsure has been thrown from the bell tower for being too servile and doe-eyed.

that post that's like "okay but she did utilise girl power what happened to supporting women's wrongs" annoyed the fuck out of me when it was doing the rounds on here bc the original joke made by eric andre was about MARGARET THATCHER

the joke was intended to undermine that kind of wishy-washy popculture white feminism that leads to people uncritically supporting any woman in power to the point of praising and idolising war criminals and colonisers. the original joke goes "did she effectively utilise girl power when she funded illegal paramilitary death troops in northern ireland". it wasn't a fandom joke!
