Behold, the dreadful new Twitter Blue logo

Unless you've been living under a rock (and after the last few years, I wouldn't blame you), you're probably aware of the controversy surrounding Elon Musk's Twitter takeover – and verification chaos that ensued. The platform was forced to pause its new anyone-can-buy-a-blue-badge-for-$8 policy a few weeks ago – but it's back, with an appropriately chaotic new logo.

The official Twitter Blue account (which features a yellow verification badge, lol) has updated its header photo to the new logo, which can only be described as 1980s meets Microsoft Word Art, plus bad kerning. Yep, like Twitter itself right now, it's just a bit of a mess. (Need a palette cleanser? Check out the best logos of all time.)
