The Twitter verification thing is like a real life production of Dr Seuss’s The Sneetches. Everyone wants a star, but as soon as everyone can have a star then the people who had them in the first place don’t want them, effectively making the star a negative symbol instead of positive one. And that’s just one of a countless list of hilarious things on that app. Love it.
Perfect example, Musk should continue to follow the Dr Seuss model and charge Lebron for the removal of his check mark
