Twitter Is Now… “X?”
So… The Twitter bird has been replaced with the letter X now… that’s a thing…

Is this the end of an era? Do we just called Twitter “X” now? That’s what Elon Musk has been tweeting out. Or is there a funny pronunciation that goes with it, too? And s it a nod to Elon Musk’s son with Grimes?
We all know Elon Musk loves and eccentric name. After all, he has a son named X Æ A-XII, nicknamed “X” and a daughter, “Exa Dark Sideræl Musk” who they call “Y” for short according to USA Today.
She’s Y now, or “Why?” or just “?” (But the government won’t recognize that). curiosity, the eternal question, .. and such.

At the time of this blog, only the Twitter logo has changed going from the little blue bird to an artsy “X.” It was illuminated on the Twitter headquarters building. See Musk’s tweet here:
