And totally against Twitter's usage rules. Expect a C&D.

Unless Twitter provides an embossed icon, you're out of luck. As mentioned above, you can't alter it according to their usage rules.

you can't alter it but there are thousands (maybe just hundreds) of different versions out there.
and PD nailed it. dozens of ways to get this done. use of meshes or gradients can do it too.

There are only a couple listed on their usage page. Where did I put that link?

here it is: https://twitter.com/logo
The "t" logo is now obsolete, according to that page.

According to that link, I don't think you legally can. You need to follow the Twitter brand guidelines, which includes color.
If you’d like to make any use of our marks that is not covered by this document, you must contact us at trademarks at twitter.com and include a visual mockup of intended use.
