In fairness the setup was absolutely beautiful. She's some woman for the zingers.

Well, the setup worked for whichever side chimed in. Elon never stood a chance. The fact that she was describing multiple people is truely terrifying. But I guess that's her point.

She was definitely talking about Elongated, but probably had that comeback planned ahead of time.

It's everyone's dream come true - when the comebacks you think up in the shower or before going to bed actually get to be used

Hasn't AOC been involved in institutional debates about Meta for a long while now?

I like xit too though. It just works better. Xitter, folks all xitting. If it’s a good xit they can say it’s popping.

In a recent interview this came up, and the best word be said he could come up with was post, but he was hoping for something better.

I don't think they'll ever get something good like tweeting on twitter. X is terrible for that.

By every metric it's horrible. Searching for the term, using it as a verb and noun, ease of saying it in a sentence, recognition, as a logo, color scheme, the fact that X sounds a lot like ex as in something I previously engaged in but no longer do (irony) . I mean I could go on and on.

I refuse to believe no one told him how poor of an idea it is, I think he just has too much money to be able to listen to others.

Is there a place to verify these posts are real without actually touching Twitter (currently known as Elon Musk's X)? I see there's blue checkmarks on them but I have a feeling a really cleaver hacker could fake those in an image.

Here’s my Nitter search with some filters:

The iPhone let me copy that text out of the image (fastest way was to screenshot and then hold my finger on the text in the screenshot preview). I then tapped “look up” and DuckDuckGo found articles about the exchange. But for less popular Tweets, Nitter should work.

I don't know of any service that verifies tweets, but this one is real: https://www.businessinsider.com/elon-musk-aoc-stop-hitting-on-me-tweet-mark-zuckerberg-2022-4

You don't need to be a hacker to edit an image...

It's honestly really gross that he immediately jumps to thinking she's hitting on him. Like, him freaking out and going into a fit of rage might have been a less terrible response.
