The best part: the old screen name is available for anyone interested in impersonating a federal agency (I just checked).

If you want to get mad about some shit the US government did that isn’t murderous or fascist but is just nonsensical and fucking stupid, the National Labor Relations Board account on X recently changed its handle from “@NLRB” (which it had had since 2009) to “@NLRB_Board”.

(I’d grab it myself but unfortunately I don’t think I have a spare account at the moment. If anyone does please go for it!)

You could deactivate that old Twitter account, or (for a limited time) you could change your screen name to one that’s presumably linked from thousands of US government web pages and pretend to be a US government agency for a few days until you get suspended. Seems like an easy choice!
