@JamesSayer A "nut sorter " no longer exists? 😡 I like nuts, 2 of my nieces called my Dad the " Big Squirrel" 🐿️ because he hunted for nuts to crack. That would be a perfect no stress, retirement job for me. 🌰

@JamesSayer @wawanda Don’t worry it only happens occasionally. I asked Elon to reinstate you, so far he hasn’t responded to me. I don’t think I’m alt-right enough!

@JamesSayer @wawanda 😅 my guess is you had a link to Mastadon in your tweets. Elon was pretty upset with that for awhile.

@Samble16 @wawanda if Mastodon doesn't like swearing, I'm fucked.
