the fact that pro-monarchy arguments have degenerated, over the past few centuries, from “the king rules by divine right and is accountable to nobody but god”, to “uhm the royals generate a lot of income from tourism” will never stop being extremely funny to me
the monarchs… bad. but the castles? oh, the castles are positively lush with rats… 👅

uh, source?

Corn dogs are named for their traditional meat, the unicorn. As unicorns are now extinct, they can only be referred to properly as ‘Corn Dogs and not “Unicorn Dogs” as they were prior to 2009.
This is actually a common misconception! While the Unicorn Dog did exist and was discontinued following the extinction of unicorns in 2009, the Corn Dog is not a rebranding of the Unicorn Dog! The Corn Dog was created in 2003 by James H. Corn, though it remained a relatively unpopular Ohio treat until 2010 when Mr. Corn took the opportunity left by the Unicorn Dog’s exit from the market to take over the niche.

Sometimes I like to think about the League of Villains (when they were dirt poor) discovering that Dabi is Todoroki Touya and trying to exchange him for a ransom so they can eat something else than instant noodles.
Endeavor receiving that phone call like “we have your son. send ten, no, fifty, no, 85 thousand yen to—”
“Shouto’s been trained for this, you don’t have him, he has you.”
“…no, your other son”
cue pause until Endeavor remembers his other son
“Natsuo? You have Natsuo?”
furious muttering and not-muttering occurs away from the phone. Endeavor is only half-listening, more concerned with figuring out who gave away his personal phone number than Natsuo’s well-being. Elsewhere, in college, Natsuo feels incandescent rage and desire to stuff itching powder in Endeavor’s left socks.
“he says he isn’t Natsuo”
“then whoever you have isn’t my son”
Endeavor hangs up the phone. Touya is pissed that he’s been downgraded to not-even-a-son status. It is unknown whether he’s aware that his family believes he died years ago
Endeavor, several months later, upon Touya doing his Dramatic Reveal™: oh you had my OTHER other son
Endeavor: why didn’t you SAY
Touya, Shigaraki, Shouto, everyone on the battlefield:
finally I got them all
it’s crazy how much diversity there can be in one species…these are all pictures of the same bird species (red-tailed hawk)
my brother started calling our cat "doobie brother" which he then lengthened to "dubious brother" and has since morphed into "brother dubious" like he's some sort of fucked up little monk

I slept in and just woke up, so here's what I've been able to figure out while sipping coffee:
Twitter has officially rebranded to X just a day or two after the move was announced.
The official branding is that a tweet is now called "an X", for which there are too many jokes to make.
The official account is still @twitter because someone else owns @X and they didn't reclaim the username first.
The logo is 𝕏 which is the Unicode character Unicode U+1D54F so the logo cannot be copyrighted and it is highly likely that it cannot be protected as a trademark.
Outside the visual logo, the trademark for the use of the name "X" in social media is held by Meta/Facebook, while the trademark for "X" in finance/commerce is owned by Microsoft.
The rebranding has been stopped in Japan as the term "X Japan" is trademarked by the band X JAPAN.
Elon had workers taking down the "Twitter" name from the side of the building. He did not have any permits to do this. The building owner called the cops who stopped the crew midway through so the sign just says "er".
He still plans to call his streaming and media hosting branch of the company as "Xvideo". Nobody tell him.
This man wants you to give him control over all of your financial information.
Edit to add further developments:
Yes, this is all real. Check the notes and people have pictures. I understand the skepticism because it feels like a joke, but to the best of my knowledge, everything in the above is accurate.
Microsoft also owns the trademark on X for chatting and gaming because, y'know, X-box.
The logo came from a random podcaster who tweeted it at Musk.
The act of sending a tweet is now known as "Xeet". They even added a guide for how to Xeet.
The branding change is inconsistent. Some icons have changed, some have not, and the words "tweet" and "Twitter" are still all over the place on the site.
TweetDeck is currently unaffected and I hope it's because they forgot that it exists again. The complete negligence toward that tool and just leaving it the hell alone is the only thing that makes the site usable (and some of us are stuck on there for work).
This is likely because Musk was forced out of PayPal due to a failed credit line project and because he wanted to rename the site to "X-Paypal" and eventually just to "X".
This became a big deal behind the scenes as Musk paid over $1 million for the domain X.com and wanted to rebrand the company that already had the brand awareness people were using it as a verb to "pay online" (as in "I'll paypal you the money")
X.com is not currently owned by Musk. It is held by a domain registrar (I believe GoDaddy but I'm not entirely sure). Meaning as long as he's hung onto this idea of making X Corp a thing, he couldn't be arsed to pay the $15/year domain renewal.
Bloomberg estimates the rebranding wiped between $4 to $20 billion from the valuation of Twitter due to the loss of brand awareness.
The company was already worth less than half of the $44 billion Musk paid for it in the first place, meaning this may end up a worse deal than when Yahoo bought Tumblr.
One estimation (though this is with a grain of salt) said that Twitter is three months from defaulting on its loans taken out to buy the site. Those loans were secured with Tesla stock. Meaning the bank will seize that stock and, since it won't be enough to pay the debt (since it's worth around 50-75% of what it was at the time of the loan), they can start seizing personal assets of Elon Musk including the Twitter company itself and his interest in SpaceX.
Sesame Street's official accounts mocked the rebranding.
i hate when youtube food reviewers take a bite out of a burger and hold it right up to the camera where they took a bite. like thanks, looks disgusting, what are you gonna show me next? A Man's Asshole?
hey that's the guy who had a legitimate full mental breakdown because people said aging and dying was natural and he insisted saying that was tantamount to supporting genocide and him and weren't meant to age or die. the fursona guy. that's him
It's all "keep tumblr weird" until a real weirdo shows up I see
“Everything you said about the modern world is true. It is a dangerous place. Only not for us. For them, it’s a dangerous, sad, broken place full of fear and desperation. It’s weak. Looking for a powerful force to guide it, control it, dominate it. Like you. I mean, this entire society was designed for Renfields, by Renfields. So why should I have to adapt to it? It should have to adapt to me.”
