It's not pining, it's passed on! This bird is no more! It has ceased to be! It's expired and gone to meet its maker! This is a late bird! It's a stiff! Bereft of life, it rests in peace! If you hadn't nailed it to the perch, it would be pushing up the daisies! It's run down the curtain and joined the choir invisible!
This is an x-bird!

- nickelcitymario 3y agoNo no he's not dead, he's, he's restin'! Remarkable bird, the X, idn'it, ay? Beautiful plumage!
- dathinab 3y agoduno, pretty much everyone I know on twitter is like "I don't feel like using it anymore." and only stays around due to the remainder of the network effect and the fundamental issue of transferring followers to another platform being hard. and that it's a pretty bad branding doesn't help either, I don't want to eX my friends, imagine saying to your spouse you want to eX them etc. and I mean people often act stupid but it has limits and if you first go around claiming you will buy twitter to protect free speech and then aX anything which tried to protect free speech in twitter from the inside and have way higher censorship numbers people might wonder if buying X products will aX them and their values and their health at some point. That he aXt anyone believing him to be a serious reliable person due to his public appearances probably won't help either.
- nickelcitymario 3y agoJust to clarify, I was simply playing along with the reference to Monty Python's Parrot Sketch. I'm in no way defending X or Musk.
- thenthenthen 3y agoLike a bird in a coal mine?
- marviel 3y agonormally averse to jokes on this platform, but I love this.
- mysterydip 3y agoCoincidentally, the end of that sketch is how I feel about the platform now: "I'm not prepared to pursue my line of inquiry any further as I think this is getting too silly."
- samstave 3y agoPersonally, I think getting hit in the face with a fish sketch is how Musk is treating Twitter users...
- willtemperley 3y agoCan we please have a Musk vs Zuck fish slap-down
- EricE 3y agoIt's just pining for the fjords
- ZeroGravitas 3y agoPining for the tjeslas, surely?
- tootie 3y agoOh man, nostalgia for the early days of the internet when Monty Python quotes were the currency of influence. This one is just impeccably timed. It's funny because I was just explaining to my kids how we owe the internet definition of "spam" to Monty Python.
