it’s always a bit intimidating when linkedin tells you how many people looked you up in the past week. not only do you not know why they’re looking at your profile, but linkedin wants you to pay just to see where all those people work 🫠

@HelenWheels he reacquired it from paypal in 2017!

@DoktorPooPoo Yeah, so I’m referring to the PayPal product. X was financial services, then merged with Confinity which made PayPal. Musk was CEO of merged company called X, and tried to rename the core product PayPal as X too, but was ousted over it because users trusted the PayPal brand and didn’t trust X. Then the X services were shut down by Thiel so the entire company eventually took the PayPal name.

@mu @groundcrazymae his sense of humour is stuck in his adolescent years

Twitter’s new X logo wasn’t made by an in-house designer. It’s from an old podcast hosted by one of the cult that Elon took from his replies.

The font is Monotype’s Special Alphabets 4. Who wants to bet Musk didn’t pay for the rights before slapping it all over the place?
