Because They Are Obscene
Twitter is a tool. You can use it in any way you like. Don’t be disappointed if people don’t always see your message. It does have less nonsense than facebook. It is not as great as some people claim. A blogger looking for material can find it useful. During some events, it can be a terrific source of up to the minute information. @chamblee54 ~ A follower of Meher Baba wrote a wonderful book, with a terrible title. “How to choose a guru.” ~ I am not a horse designed by a committee ~ I am going to the Duluth Fall Festival. I don’t think it will be like the Folsom Fair. ~ You looked well recovered last night. Of course, you wrote this on the 16th. Never mind. ~ The opposite of pro is con. Only trouble is, provention is a nonsense word. Maybe what we need is a constitutional prevention. ~ Michael is presenting himself as a healer.

The powers that be know that if they get white people and black people fussing at each other, then the people will not notice the government screwing everybody. ~ is that masc or mask? ~ The six panels above were created as an entry in the Trifecta writing challenge. The first five panels are linked to this site. The contest of Friday, October 4, 2013, is week eighty eight. This is considered a lucky number by some.
