Rebranded Twitter aka “X” has the new tagline:

“Blaze your glory!”

(Twitter’s previous tagline was “it’s what’s happening”) #twitter #elonmusk #twittermigration #tech #technology #x #musk #technews #news

@taylorlorenz it’s surely a pot reference. He knows nothing else.
@taylorlorenz Musk is definitely blazing something over there; pretty sure it’s not glory though.
@taylorlorenz
"Blaze your credibility" would do better.
Or "Blaze your reputation"
@taylorlorenz Musk is burning it to the ground... The FEC should take a serious look if the purchase was an illegal campaign contribution.

@taylorlorenz

That's coz Build Your Dreams was already taken 😄

@taylorlorenz Reminds me of Steely Dan: See the glory, of the Royal Scam.
@taylorlorenz All I can think of is “I'm goin' down in a blaze of glory!!”
@pop_justy @taylorlorenz
Fits right in with my interpretation of X... Or Ex... As in "former".

@pop_justy @taylorlorenz Musk is surely going for a pot reference, but yeah, the only context where anyone ever uses the phrase "blaze of glory" is in reference to a spectacular failure.

It's apt, I'll give it that.

Bright 'X' sign at former Twitter HQ causing some concern among nearby residents

The rebrand of Twitter to X has been glaringly obvious to some San Francisco residents.

@taylorlorenz So, basically it's run by psychopaths? By the way, is social media glorious? I'm not feeling too glorious right now. I'm feeling like a guy in his pajamas.
@taylorlorenz I see. In order to stay on top of the feeds he has to come up with something reportably bad to do about once every three days.
@taylorlorenz What a stupid Tagline   😂
@monkee
Yeah, it could work for a video game or something, but a website where you talk to people?
@taylorlorenz
@taylorlorenz why is he so dumb. I don’t understand why he has to be so goddamn stupid.
@tehshawn @taylorlorenz He's a narcissist so he thinks everyone of his ideas is gold and if it doesn't work it's someone else's fault. Combine that with being surrounded by yes-men and this is what you get.

@taylorlorenz this wording is pretty close to Tumblr's paid-post boosting: https://help.tumblr.com/hc/en-us/articles/5298854249367-Blaze-FAQ

"Blaze a post", etc.

@taylorlorenz does this man live in some sort of velvet bubble where his gf cheers on all this nonsense and he has no bearings?

@taylorlorenz "That was back when so many of us used Twitter."

"Twitter?"

"Yeah. After he bought it, he rebranded it 'X'."

"What? You mean, like, the public information department of the rocket company used to be called Twitter?"

"Yup."

@taylorlorenz

X - Set 🔥Fire🔥 To Your Ass🍑⚡️!

@taylorlorenz Yes, Jon Bon Jovi used it correctly. One goes down, or out, in a blaze of glory. It means it's over, but you break as much as you can on the way out.
@taylorlorenz Musk’s ego has squandered millions of dollars in brand equity with this move. Dumbest business move of the century? X marks the spot.
@taylorlorenz Mark your Spot would have been better... or Elon your Musk... like the dawg he is, with his rabid followers. :/
@taylorlorenz what glory?
@mksbrasil @taylorlorenz These are people who think the crusades were a high point in history.
@taylorlorenz I quit Twitter on Day X. Do I miss the information that came from all over the world at lightning speed? Definitely. Worth staying to support Musk in any fashion? NO!

@ElRay Welcome!

To get started, follow lots of people and hashtags. You can always weed them out later.

Hashtag following doesn't work in the official mobile apps yet, so use a different app or the browser. https://joinmastodon.org/apps

It's also good to write something in your profile if you want people to follow you.

@taylorlorenz I could never be that rich, because I never want to be so insulated from reality that I can't tell what's embarrassing anymore. Because it just keeps getting more embarrassing. He's a grown man in his 50s, branding his $44 billion mistake, formerly a site that shaped world politics and the media, like it's a high school video game club (though I don't think the average high school boy would want so desperately to be friends with Nazis).

@taylorlorenz "Blaze your glory" as in "go out in a blaze of glory?"

Twitter isn't even managing to do that right. "Not with a bang, but a whimper."

@taylorlorenz At least Elmo is honest about the direction he's taking with X: Not information, not free access to said information and important public notices, but the most toxic and primitive masculine traits of all: D*ck comaprison. Which perfectly fits his preffered claque: "Alphas", self-proclaimed "makers", alt-right White Power radicals, incels and everything else that belongs to this scum.
@moskitokoenig @taylorlorenz
How is Elon a billionaire philanderer AND an incel‽ What magic must he possess to achieve both at the same time?
@RnDanger @moskitokoenig @taylorlorenz he is completely rizzless. Rizz deprived. A black hole of charisma. In a word: insufferable

@AfroScribble @moskitokoenig @taylorlorenz

"Listen man. If you want me to suffer your shit, you're gonna need some real Rizz!" 😅

@taylorlorenz first impression: that Bon Jovi song
@taylorlorenz 𝕏 is certainly going down in a blaze.
@taylorlorenz I haven't seen this as you mention (in Spanish at least), so... we're still safe, I guess?
@taylorlorenz Elon proves once again that he is the lamest loser online
@taylorlorenz nothing in the world is dumber than this.
@junkyardmessiah @taylorlorenz just wait a week and Musk will probably find something dumber to do. He's gifted like that.
@taylorlorenz They forgot to update their Apple TV app 🙂
@Nordex28 @taylorlorenz The app logo was updated today on my iPhone. My first response: aXe it. Threw it off, finally
@taylorlorenz every time you think this sad sack can't get sadder, he does...
@taylorlorenz "Blaze your Glory" sounds like a fan-produced Terrance and Phillip movie.
