New logo
Hm, how do images work across instances? Maybe this way?

Don’t you know? The bird’s aren’t real!
They are really drone replicas installed by the U.S. government to spy on Americans!
Sorry to break the illusion, but BIRD is an acronym. British Intelligence Recording Device.
Rule Britannia.
While that acronym is true, the British don’t actually operate that many BIRDs, they mostly manufacture them and export to other countries.
I hear that almost 2/3rds of British manufacturing is devoted to BIRDs that are earmarked for foreign government use.
Twitter is dead. I’ve loathed it for over a decade and am bringing out my dancing shoes 💃 🪦
Pay 44 billion for a brand, then change it. Pure genius.
Brand and user base. Destroy both
@boredtortoise And last, destroy the technology. Mission completed.
Pay billions for a userbase, then drive away the ones that aren’t Nazis or bots.
An X looks like a swastika if you only add half the seriffs
It must be incredibly frustrating to be the new CEO that he just appointed, only to have him continuing to run his mouth and make ruinous decisions that tie your hands.
If she didn’t know what she was signing up for then she deserves no pity. If she’s smart she’s using this as a stepping stone.
You would have to know this would happen when working for Musk.
In ten years some kids in a discord round robin gonna ask why the fake social media in fanfiction are little blue birds. Wait they used to be real??
He really did buy it just to delete it.
Of course he did; he hated Twitter because of it’s ability for marginalized people to organized as well as give people the ability to share videos about his unsafe products.
Dude, he is a PR guy with Twitter being his main platform. There is no logic there.
I mean, it makes perfect sense. He’s a PR guy who wanted to own a platform so he could spin his own facts; the fact that people could post videos of his own products catching fire was bad for him.
He is destroying his platform. While simultaneously helping competitors. While been forced to pay way to much and even pay for the layers his opponents hired. Genius moves all around.
Headline to come one week later:
“After some backlash from users, Musk comes to a compromise: the new twitter logo is a blue bird with a giant Red X over it.”
Jamie Kennedy about to sue
What is Musks obsession with the letter X?
He’s a stunted 8 year old who associates X with edginess. X factor. X Men. X Ray. X rated films. XXX. All super fucking cool
Also, he’s an unoriginal dipshit. All he’s good at is buying things and slapping his name on 'em, he’s never had an idea of his own.
He originally wanted “Model 3” to be called “Model E” so that all three Tesla models could spell out “SEX”. Fortunately that name was already taken. He’s a petulant child.
It marks the spot
In this case, the exact spot where Musk"s transformation from supposed tech genius to batshit crazy bigot was completed.
That was complete and public way back in 2017 at the latest
Him and his Minecraft looking head were at least half fooling some people until his more recent shenanigans though!
Realizing Elon Musk is a dipshit is something where the two best times to realize that it is true are 1998, and now
He’s emotionally stunted and stuck in the 90s.
X.com is his product he owned, that is loosely associated with PayPal’s success despite it having nothing to do with the tech that it was merged for.
By “absorbing” twitter with his original X company that is older than twitter, he can pretend to be the founder of the parent company X, like he pretends to be the founder of Tesla.
@hedge I tried one with an AI:
shitty logo for a company worst company ever i hate it useless dumb die forever
I mean, they’ve been using the first one in the middle row for a while now for their media relations communications. Albeit from a different angle. They should probably go with that.
Birds were the only redeeming factor at this point!
What was that about him doing twitter’s technology policing and leaving running the company to the new CEO?
He’s not even good at using his puppet.
Like Comcast rebranding to Xfinity
Changing your established brand to one that’s been associated with Apple, one of the most litigious companies in history, is… a choice.
Damn the bird flu even got to the Twitter bird this year
Bets on this happening because he’s bought into “birds aren’t real”?
