Is this just a dumb plan to avoid having to pay all of Twitter’s ex employees and contractors.

Does Yaccarino realize that she was hired as Twitter ceo, not x ceo.

I still find it funny he's been brooding about this X thing since he was shown the door at PayPal. Decades of just "I'll make my own site! And it'll be the most awesome, coolest site! They'll see!" running on loop in his head

So, Twitter has Tweets highlighting what's on the site and what you do in one word for recognizable branding. What is the X equivalent? Xing? Xed? Xeet?

imagine a bank where random strangers accuse you of grooming children for sex, and the bank manager occasionally pops in to show you some funny email forwards and claim he came up with them.

sound like 3-5 years in the future? what if I told you this was X, the everything app, and it’s available right now

e: the managers email forwards also accuse you of grooming children for sex

I guess I'm confused because it's such a wierd claim. Twitter does none of these things! Objectively! Just also claim it can time travel now, who gives a poo poo. Maybe this is why I'm not a billionaire
