He’s like Trump, he panics if he isn’t in the news for two minutes
Lmao, he definitely looked at the graphic designer and said “make it bolder”
Considering its just an X from an open source font, I wonder if the designer just looked at him pressed Ctrl+B then walked off into the sunset
You really gonna publish a rough draft? Your 40 billion dollar baby you just doin shit? He’s like a child in a Ferrari just burning up the clutch in the parking lot. Worse. He’s a 52 year old man burning up the clutch and blaming everyone who tries to help him.
He changed it back already.
Ffs. That’s a thing you finalize BEFORE pulling the trigger on it.
This is just more proof of the ad hoc nature of things over there, and how everything is dependent on his protean-ass will. And he thinks folks are actually gonna trust him with their money?
It’s pretty bizarre how it worked. “We’re going to replace our world famous brand, logo and ‘slowly, all the birds’, overnight with a logo someone sends me. That will work as an ‘interim logo’.” I mean , wtf is the rush?
I do not get the rush. He’s clearly not thought any of it out, which is obnoxious by how piecemeal the rollout was.
The second largest market for Twitter is Japan. The legal entity for it in Japan is Twitter Japan. So, seems like they’d charge it to X Japan, right?
Well, no. Because the trademark for X Japan is owned by the very famous over here rock band X Japan. One of the founding members, Yoshiki, already tweeted in English and Japanese that the name is trademarked. So what are they going to call it? ¯_(ツ)_/¯ That’s something so basic even a rudimentary Google search would have said the name was unavailable in the second largest market, but Elon couldn’t even be bothered to have any of the grunts still stuck working for him look into the actual logistics of using the name he’s stuck on.
The only reason I can think of that’s not Elon’s manic drug bender wearing off of the idea I’ve seen floating around that he’s trying to force through the face charge to get out of legal and contractual problems by making it so “Twitter” as a compact doesn’t exist so greed not on the hook for any payments Twitter owes. At this point, both ideas seem just as likely.
JapanX!
True, perhaps he’s trying to pass all of twitter’s assets to X, then have Twitter, Inc declare bankruptcy. It’s hard to imagine he’d have any problem with that ethically.
