Thursday on X (Twitter), all users saw the same pinned topic under the “What’s happening?” sidebar. As part of a “timeline takeover” — which gives advertisers “priority access to logged-in users’ first impression of the day” — conservative media nonprofit PragerU is promoting the hashtag “#DETRANS” to advertise its new film about “the stories of detransitioners.”
Twitter already sucked in its own ways, but X-formerly-known-as-twitter is so utter shit I have a hard time imagining people browsing and enjoying it.
I’ve also heard people call it “Twitter, desperately trying to be known as X”.
Shitter
Xitter, pronounced “shitter”.
That’s because you have a hard time imagining what it would be like to be one of the people who browses and enjoys it.
Most people struggle to turn off their brain enough to be able to think as stupidly as those people do.
