Gotta hate Time-Warner.
AOL-Time-Warner.
Chiquita Brands International? Nah United Fruit Company? Bingo
Obligatory fuck Twitter
A lot of these aren’t technically dead-names. They’re parent corporations that exist to shuffle around profits and minimize tax and regulatory liabilities. Facebook and Google both continue to exist as properties owned by Meta and Alphabet.
Deadnaming regions (using their indigenous names instead of colonial names)
The only difference being Meta and Alphabet are the names of parent companies that Facebook and Google created to own themselves
I’ll call it x once he sells the domain. Sell it you coward.
He did sell it…to himself. His AI company bought it.
Companies didn’t rename themselves. Rich CEOs renamed them against their will.
CEO: I am the Senate
I think we should call it x. Twitter was this pioneering microblogging site. X is an extremist echo chamber that was created in 2023.
That’s why people call xitter which is comfortably close to shitter.
Something about xitter also has this sophomoric zit acne feel. And the name is weird, too.
Funny thing is Twitter was cesspool even before Musk got his hands on it. I was actually impressed he managed to make it significantly worse.
twitter 2012-2015 was peak. ironically youtube 2012-2015 was peak.
basically dan and phil, grace, hannah, mamrie, and tyler oakley are the reason for the success of youtube and twitter not good and twitter.
It sure was, I’m willing to let that fact get buried so the contrast appears sharper, let time gild twitter.
Is calling it Twitter is deadnaming?
Maybe we should tell this pervert of Mr Musk we call it Twitter as long he is referring to his daughter by her penis.
Corporations are living like it’s 1930.
Just change your name and the past goes away.
It will always, always be Monsanto.
Did they change it?
Xfinity? Comcast!
At&t? Ma’ Bell!
That one has quite a few more steps, AT&T had to re-acquire Southern Bell>Bellsouth, Southwestern Bell, MCI, and a bunch of other subordinate companies to resurrect the reality of Ma’Bell
Yep, iirc Cingular was the last nail to be removed from the coffin, and that happened over a decade ago.
