A jackass with far more money and power than respect for it or anything else is tearing down a place where I have had a great number of memorable, fun, or significant interactions. There are important people in my life who very likely would not be if not for Twitter, including my spouse. Through Twitter I have helped connect people in ways that made significant changes to their lives. So yes, I'm sad, I'm frustrated, I'm annoyed, I'm angry, and I don't think it's irrational to feel those ways. I'm also annoyed at people acting superior because they're lucky enough to not be affected.

Most of the work is done for you though, the "old" logo is still all over the site. Click "X Corp. > About the company" and you're greeted with a giant bird, and Twitter is what’s happening...". It's clear there wasn't a plan to roll out the rebrand.
edit: also, shouldn't it just be a tampermonkey script?
