Hilarious Twitter Suspension Update


It's been a little over two weeks since Twitter suspended me forever for referring to  a wingnut as "trash" on Twitter after they stepped to me and called me batshit crazy.

You know, usual stuff, but Twitter high command arbitrarily deemed it sufficient to toss me off of their website, bag and baggage, forever.  

I immediately availed myself of their appeal process, but they have not responded in any way to that appeal nor to the two emails I've sent asking for an update.

However today I did get an email from Twitter.

Yay!

Would you like to see it?

Of course you would!



Yes, the same people who threw me  off of their website and told me to never darken their digital doorstep again...also want me to know that I have an audience on their website!   

And my audience on their website is listening!

And would I be interested in paying them money in order to better connect with that audience?

So either this a shakedown so ham-fisted it would make a Chicago alderman shudder, or it confirms my suspicion that Twitter is run by teams of Adderall-tweaking 20-somethings who have no idea what each other are up to.  

Whichever it is, I am now almost unbearably tempted to see what would happen if I tried to run ads on Twitter demanding that Twitter reinstate me.

I'm going with the Adderall theory.

If only you had a TV lawyer like Rudy.

Or even a mob lawyer. Someone to call a press conference for you between the porn shop and the crematory to prove your case.

I have no idea why FOX has not booked you across the prime time to talk about you being canceled. Silenced. Murad. Muffled. Gaged.

I remember when Twitter was new. And it seemed that there was a hurried push to make sure the term "Tweet" stuck before the gerund became some form of "twat".

Please do.

I was solicited for a donation to a local institution once. They were "selling" memorial bricks for an outdoor area they were trying to improve. The selling point was you could put whatever dedication on the brick you "bought" you wished.

So happens we had litigated a case for a former employee and - after several years - pried the fellows wages out of this particular institution by order of the state supreme court.

I dutifully made out my check for the required amount and sent it in with my requested brick dedication message for engraving which was the citation to the state supreme court case ordering them to pay the wages.

A month later my check had not cleared the bank.

I called and left a message for the person in charge of this fundraising project at the institution.

A week after that my check was returned - unnegotiated - without explanation.
