    Imagine being out of the loop and then being faced with the prospect of downloading “X - Blaze your glory!” when it comes up randomly in your search for twitter.

    Fucking trainwreck.

    I know this is all just Elon’s ineptitude on full display, but there is still part of me that thinks he was paid by certain governments to tank the platform.

      If you want to understand his action look at those who paid for him to act.

    Cat pics are much higher on my list of priorities than “blazing” my “glory”. What even is that? Is it a sex thing? It’s a sex thing, isn’t it? Brb, gonna go blaze myself in the glory.
