    This is what I hate about the homunculi of twitter company personalities. “Hahaa, did you see the way Walmart clapped back at IBM?“ Humanizing vast, faceless companies puppeted by sociopathic business majors triggers every rage response that my body can muster. Please, shut the fuck up

      [Off-topic] Your display name is hilarious. It reminds me old viruses with double extensions, like hotpix.jpg.vbs

        Thanks, I always hope people get a little giggle out of the momentary confusion. I’m surprised whenever people are legitimately fooled. Just click my name, I’m @gullible, you silly billies!

          I assume its not showing your set name on voyager?

            I don’t want anyone to miss out on the fun. WolfdadCigarette@threads.net@sh.itjust.works should be what’s visible. Out of curiosity, does voyager offer the ability to change your display name?

              Ok. Thats why I’m not getting it. I just see WolfdadCigarette@threads.net

              And thats it.

              Ah! The threads.net tag, nice.

              Doesn’t seem to have the option to change or set one

              It appears to be on the feature todo list

            Why is Voyager like this? People are missing out some brilliant user names.

              Like your reference to the meme? It’s a rather cool way to do it through emojis.

                Can’t say I came up with it. I think I saw it on /r/collapse first.

      People propagate this though. Company twitter accounts posting derivative meme shit is what people reshare. Most people consider Apple/Tesla/Pelaton/Nintendo to be their buddies and love it when their buddy seems like a down to earth, regular guy. It’s cringe.

      unrelated but “the homunculus of Twitter” is a good nickname for Elon

        Now I’m having visions of the high priestess X’twitterquatl sacrificing Mayan children on a pyramid as lightning flashes in an attempt to animate their engine of destruction; The Homonculus of X’twitter.

        I’m allowed to hate things I’m not part of. My silent malice does little to dissuade folks from posting examples to lemmy
