He's In The Jailhouse Again



As some of you might remember, the last time I got tossed into the Hashtag Hoosegow is was for referring to Bill Maher as a "whore" on Twitter.

That was all it took.

So, on the theory that every time God locks a Twitter account She opens a new tab on Windows, I chose to use my time in solitary to have some fun in the prison library and research whether or not Bill Maher himself had ever used suchlike language on Twitter.

The results did not surprise me. But Bill Maher is a Blue Check and I'm a nobody that's just how Twitter rolls.

And now, dear readers, I have once again I have transgressed the unwritten rules of decorum and used an Outlaw Word on the Twitter and am now officially a marked man.

A two-time loser.

A Twecidivist .

And what got me kicked out this time?

Using the word "Gimp" specifically in reference to Lindsey Graham and a very, very famous scene from the movie Pulp Fiction.  



And that, boys and girls was literally all it took to get me locked out of Twitter.  Again.



And so, with all the slow time I now have on my hands to a contemplate my fate as I sit here in my cell, I thought perhaps we might share a Teachable Moment and have a little fun by once again raiding the prison library to see if there are perhaps other people -- much more respectable and prominent persons -- who might also have used that word on Twitter.

And with just a few minutes at the microfiche machine, do you know who I found out just fucking loves that word?

Everybody's favorite Never Trumper Rick Wilson.

And while I shan't bore you by using a 20 lb. sledgehammer to overkill the matter, perhaps you can indulge me the use of a 16 oz. ball-peen hammer to make the point, beginning with Mr. Wilson's vivid  description of President Barack Obama from 2013:


Then, more recently, this:
And this:
And this:
And this:
And this:
And this:
And this:
And this:
And this:
And damn if I didn't go with the sledgehammer after all.

Also too:
Ah well.

 I guess prison really does change a person.


Behold, my Twitter Legal Defense Fund!

Seems as though someone on Twitter is out to get you. Organized, spurious reporting and Twitter's algorithm being too stupid to figure it out.

if you wanted to get crazy with it, and not go into the porn levels of the internet, there are many scenes from "The People Under The Stairs" with a character in a gimp suit.

I was permanently banned from twitter, mostly through brigading terfs, but the last straw was calling Ann Coulter a cunt.

When we have different justice systems for different categories of people with different levels of crime and punishment.

Well, stacking the courts (and SCOTUS) carries some comfort to those covered under the GOP?wealth justice insurance policy.

I guess get this in front of the trump renowned 9th circuit court of appeals.
before they ban it.

It is already chiseled granite, the unanimous 5-4 decision against you it the bipartisan activist Federalist Society's SCOTUS.

I came up against this sort of lines all my life. and it made me the long haired dirty F'ing hippie that I am today.

Like basic training. Knowing more of the truth and speaking it to my Drill instructor.
many laps ran,the extra push ups. My favorite, pulled in front of the officer(s) and questioned. Even threatened with discharge for being correct to your superior ranking officer when asked. I kept my identity and followed responsible orders. Got through with honors and worn out tread on my running shoes.

Where your punishment with distinction and honor for the class that defines your level of privilege.
Keep in mind, "The Terminator said he will be back". Word kept.

Maybe you need some of those Russian bot accounts to run interference, eh?

I expect it's all those friends of Glenn, if not Glenn himself who might be behind it. Glenn never forgets a grudge.
