Elon Musk renames Twitter to 'X' - 21 of the funniest jokes and memes
Elon Musk is making another big change to Twitter and this one might be the most significant yet - its name. The latest alteration the South African billionaire is making to the site, which he payed $44 billion for in 2022 is to rebrand it as 'X.' No, that's not a typo or a placeholder for a name we've forgot to put in, that's literally what Musk is planning to call Twitter from now on. It follows in Musk's long-standing obsession with the word (Space X, Tesla Model X his own child X Æ A-12) having already brought the X.com domain name which just redirects you to Twitter. Musk announced on Sunday "X.com now points to twitter.com. Interim X logo goes live later today." At the time of writing the change hasn't gone ahead but the switch shouldn't come as a surprise as Twitter's company name was changed to X Holdings Corp in April. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter On Sunday, Linda Yaccarino, the current Twitter CEO (or should that be X CEO) tweeted: "It’s an exceptionally rare thing – in life or in business – that you get a second chance to make another big impression. Twitter made one massive impression and changed the way we communicate. Now, X will go further, transforming the global town square." This new update to Twitter is likely to cause more confusion and unrest about Musk's influence on the site, especially with competitors like Threads growing exponentially. That being said one thing that X is still good for is memes, especially those at Musk's expense. Twitter: 2006 - 2023 Have your say in our news democracy.

Caroline Weir injury: Scotland and Real Madrid star suffers ruptured ACL
Scotland and Real Madrid forward Caroline Weir has ruptured her anterior cruciate ligament, the Spanish club have confirmed. Weir suffered the injury during Scotland’s Nations League draw against Belgium on Tuesday and becomes the second Scottish international to rupture their ACL this week, after Manchester United’s Emma Watson. Weir, who was Real Madrid’s player of the season last year after scoring 28 goals in her debut campaign, is set to undergo surgery in the coming days and is the latest star of the women’s game to rupture their ACL. The 28-year-old was forced off in the first half of Scotland’s match against Belgium at Hampden, with manager Pedro Martinez Losa criticising the officials after the match for not protecting Weir. Losa accused Belgium of targeting Weir and said after the match: “I am very angry, we have an injury to our best player, the opponent was looking to deliberately hurt her and it is the duty of the referee to protect the players.” The confirmation of Weir’s injury comes just a day after Manchester United said Watson had ruptured her ACL during last Friday’s defeat to England. Watson, 17, had signed from Rangers this summer and had yet to feature for United. Read More What is the Women’s Nations League and how does Olympics qualification work?
