@CantEverDie originally used the username @JUNlPER (the i is actually a lowercase L) and is a prolific poster, podcaster, social media editor for The Onion, basically a prominent figure in the post-Bernie-2020 online left, and as such has historically been critical of Elon Musk. after Elon bought twitter, he started charging $8 per month for the blue check you see next to some usernames, which most people initially laughed off because it's clearly a stupid concept, but I guess some people have started to buy it because at some point he also made it so your posts get more visibility if you pay for it and less if you don't.

Sometimes Twitter also assigns checkmarks to public figures directly. Idk if that's the case here but for example Cory Doctorow has "NONCONSENSUAL BLUE TICK" in his username

First off, fuck Elon Musk
Eight dollars too much, b*tch, that's expensive (True)

JPEGMAFIA (he would go on to pay the eight dollars after opening the album with these lines)
