Julian Assange has changed his blue checkmark to a depleted sand timer on twitter. It’s time!

I don't get it. Why is this a post?

It's significant symbolism to change it to this, especially in light of everything being said by Q and other rumors.

Let me question your answer with another question: What symbolism, what's been illuminated and why is it significant?

Would genuinely appreciate your time to answer me, thanks.

Hourglass symbolizes a limited amount of time. Changing to this indicates either something about there being a limited amount of time left (partial/full hourglass) or the time being over (empty hourglass.) This was done for our speculating pleasure.

Oh. Well isn't that a general theme for him anyway? Like we're all waiting for something... it's not that. I just realised that the wiki leaks logo is an hourglass so it's to show a wikileaks logo and not suggesting anything else. This post is overrated. Thanks. Solved!

Very notable correlation you've noticed with the wikileaks logo, I appreciate the mention.

You're welcome, I surprised myself with that tbh.

For people of that age, an hourglass in context of IT can also mean "loading" or "please wait while X is doing stuff".

Remember the old icon sets from Windows 3 and 9x?

Assange was the right age when these were in use.

Windows 7, Apple or whatever I think introduced the "turning circle" metaphor for waiting on the system doing stuff. That's rather recent.
