I miss that little blue bird. It was a symbol we all shared, childlike and kind of charming. An homage to something natural replaced by a soulless X. What a perfect symbol for the larger problem of our times.

X was also a really great band I used to go see on the Sunset Strip around 1980

“Words are symbols of symbols and therefore twice removed from reality.” Same thing with logos!

X is a symbol of the great unknown. It is a unifying call to the future. @elonmusk is a positive force for the world. Stop making up reasons to vilify @marwilliamson
