Elon Muskrat becomes “Kekius Maximus’! [1]

Ha, ha, Elon Musk has changed his name, on X, to Kekius Maximus!
Identifying as a Roman Emperor perhaps?
What a plonker!
The tech mogul - and close confidant of US President-Elect Donald Trump - offered no immediate explanation for the name or his new profile image which depicts the character Pepe the Frog - a meme that has been used by far-right groups.
Maybe we should call him Pepe the Frog instead? Nah, I like frogs.
How about Pepe Maximus Dork?
The move has sent ripples through the cryptocurrency world, sending the value of a memecoin - a digital currency inspired by internet memes - that shares the same name skyrocketing.
Why on earth would his new name affect the value of a meme coin (whatever that is), that already has that name, and send it skyrocketing? Is that meme coin actually owned by the idiot formerly known as Muskrat?
They’ll do anything for a few more billion, these insatiable, obscenely wealthy, weirdos.
Here’s the full story on the BBC website….
