... You mean "tweet"?
Naw, the movie with Edward Norton.
curb stomp
That was such a terrible, awesome scene.
Absolutely agree. Apparently it’s been cut from some of the newer releases. Fuck that, don’t sugarcoat hatred, the point of the scene is to show hatred and what it looks like for those dishing it out and those on the receiving end.
For those who haven’t seen it:

Death to Smoochie?
It's an Xcretion.
Twitter was bearable, X isn't, they are not the same platform in my mind. Fuck elon, public squares have rules and he knows that.
They're called Xs now.
Oh, that's cool.
No they aren't.
Everyone is so opposed to using the new terms because they feel like it gives Elon some kind of win. Personally I think using them unironically highlights the stupidity of the name.
It is necessary to call it ex-Twitter because “X” is just a variable that needs to be filled in.
Also the X.org foundation had the same name and logo for so much longer.
I worry about those guys. Musk could just decide he wants to send a mountain of lawyers at them if he got a bee in his bonnet about it.
It is more that we don't care how businesses decide to call themselves.
They can rebrand as much as they want to try and get rid of their bad image. But we'll remember what they did, and remind them every time we use their old name.
I still call it Facebook as well.
That's not exactly a good example, as Facebook is still called Facebook.
In what way. I've never put my hand over a hot stove to prove how stupid it would be to do that.
I had no idea what was meant until I saw the reply above.
