I still call it Twitter.
Don't fall for bad comparisons to dead naming a human being. A corporation is not a human being, no matter what citizens united or the Supreme Court try to tell you.
There's no rule anywhere that says that I have to play along with the terrible rebrand.

@mekkaokerekebye I tried to explain to my 7-year-old the other day that Twitter is now called "X" and she ended the conversation by saying "dad, that's a terrible name, I'm just going to call it Twitter"

@mekkaokerekebye Section 8 hasn’t been the actual name for the program for maybe a decade now, but no one complied with the euphemistic re-branding. I think it’s cool to keep what works for us :)

@mekkaokerekebye The owner deadnames their kid; I have absolutely no compunction about deadnaming the corporation.
