Flashing "X" installed on top of Twitter headquarters in San Francisco - without a permit from the,,
Flashing "X" installed on top of Twitter headquarters in San Francisco without a permit from the city"X" really does mark the spot for a city investigation. The company formerly known as Twitter has rebranded to the letter, placing a massive light-up "X" on top of their San Francisco headquarters, apparently without a permit.
The long-standing sign identifying the headquarters as Twitter came down last week as Elon Musk announced the social media site has officially rebranded to "X." The site's parent company had already been renamed to X Corporation as Musk said he wants to create "the everything app."
"The Twitter name made sense when it was just 140 character messages going back and forth like birds tweeting but now you can post almost anything, including several hours of video," Musk said. "In the months to come, we will add comprehensive communications and the ability to conduct your entire financial world."
But the new sign at the company's San Fransico headquarters wasn't exactly installed up to code, according to the city.

The late bluebird is now a psycho's rubber duckie. Don't participate.
He has 240 bill. The value could go to zero and he could afford it. The value, to him, is transgressive attention and a fantasy of world dominance. Don't give the attention.
We need a "global town square" that isn't the personal property of a Bond villain.
