The UX/UI and graphic designer of the DOGE team, known on the X social media platform (formerly Twitter) as “DogeDesigner” (@cb_doge), addressed the DOGE community, asking them to support X by subscribing to X Premium.
Elon Musk retweeted that message, adding his own comment to it. He said that this support is necessary for the company and is very much appreciated since it allows it to “resist censorship pressure from advertisers.” He added that users will find “many cool features” on X Premium.
Please do. There are many cool features and subscriptions allow us to resist censorship pressure from advertisers. https://t.co/i5Bpmyfb6l

The Dogecoin community responded to this call for help enthusiastically with many DOGE-themed accounts posting supportive comments: “One of the best investments I’ve ever made!” a “MoonDoggy” user wrote. User DogeMarine tweeted: “I pay for the highest tier because I want to give the highest armor bonus possible.”
User Mr.BigWhale said: “Please hold $DOGE” to remind Musk of his commitment to support Dogecoin.
This Musk’s tweet collected 3.7 million views, 13,000 likes, 1,600 retweets and 1,600 comments.
DOGE cofounder inspired by Elon Musk's tweet
Earlier today, Elon Musk published a tweet about the importance of having something that inspires you and make you “feel great to be part of humanity” in these difficult and troubled times.
Dogecoin co-creator Billy Markus, who often supports Musk on X even outside of comments to his tweets, responded that he believes “nothing is more inspirational than space travel. The final frontier.”
Thus, he, perhaps, hinted at the Sunday victory scored by Musk’s SpaceX when the booster for a Starship was caught by metallic robotic arms on the SpaceX launchpad from which the launch had been made.
imo nothing is more inspirational than space travel

the final frontier
The whole space industry and many people, including influential figures outside it, celebrated this as a great achievement and another step taken by SpaceX toward sending humans to Mars to make people a multi-planetary species, in accordance with Elon Musk’s vision.
Musk intends to send the first uncrewed Starships to Mars in two years, when Earth and the red planet are closest to each other and on the same side of the sun. If they land on Mars safely, in another two years, the first crewed missions will be sent to Mars. Musk intends to build a self-sustainable city there to create a full-fledged human colony.
