I still don't get how - with such a perfect tee-up - we settled on "X, the platform formerly known as Twitter".

Besides, imagining Musks reaction to this tickles me slightly.

I was taking that to be "zitter" like it's infected and probably should be seen by a professional otherwise it's going to leave a nasty mark.

In Chinese pinyin x is a sh sound.

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    1. NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    2. Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    3. Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----
