Premiered in 1989, 'The Simpsons' had its 34th season released, but its old episodes don't stop surprising with the supposed and famous "predictions".
The new prediction on the agenda is the change of the Twitter logo. Since last Monday (24), by decision of businessman Elon Musk, current owner of the platform, the 'đť•Ź' logo has been displayed in place of the famous blue bird.

In addition, Musk changed the name of “tweets” to “xeets” and added an alternative domain to the platform, which can now also be accessed by “X.com”. However, it is still possible to see the old name when purchasing the application which, in English, means the noise of the bird.

The episode in question is the 21st of the twenty-third season, entitled "The Secret Event of Ned and Edna", where Flanders and Professor Krabappel face the fallout from the discovery of their marriage, which was broadcast on 2012.
The scene in question takes place at the beginning of the episode, when Homer opens his cell phone to see a comment on a social network that is very similar to Twitter. However, the application indicated with đť•Ź is, in fact, a compass and has no connection with the aforementioned application.
Musk acquired the platform for $44 billion in 2022 and since then has been making changes to the network that are heavily criticized by a portion of users.
