Which of the messages was found offensive?
This is important so as to know what the regulator wants and doesn't want and so also to avoid a reoccurrence.

“ This is the day that the Lord made; we shall exult and rejoice thereon”
It was an existential issue for some of us who spend an inordinate amount of our lifetime on this forum. We were worried that we had been banned, terminated, put out of existence forever, but - putting my faith in
The Merciful God, I tried to reason with Baba Kadiri who believes that "THIS WORLD IS RULED BY PSYCHOPATHS AND SADISTS", that they can’t do that to us, because this forum fulfils a vital function in our collective existence ( I almost wrote “in our collective unconscious” )
We are on again !
We should be happy
Celebrate the miracle !
No need to over-worry
about causing offence
O we of little faith. Just
check out the lingo in the
Americano social media -
that jungle - and conclude that we are innocent lambs
that by comparison, our poetic diction belongs to that
of another social order, that of the Sunday school choir
where we find all our fellow sinners and transgressors.
This here that you’re reading is
not poetry, nor is it meant to be
It’s simple, straightforward punctuation
making whatever it is, easier to read…
For sure, “the mouthpieces
whether anointed or not anointed
must all be covered by the sky above
some of them all covered by the blood
of Jesus, and if that’s not enough

such as Kenya or Nigeria or Merry England

against the demons), or in cyberspace where
“the mouthpieces Of the Supreme Deity ''
should feel free To invoke The First Amendment
or if they so prefer, The Ten Commandments
or indeed, The Noahide Code
or this chapter of the Holy Quran: The Poets,
and fear not that through censorship they might
wind up as martyrs, or as part of
So much has happened during the five days of involuntary exile, some of it frozen here at Porter’s Pensées)
and among other things, Kamala has chosen her running mate who in my opinion looks like a 2020 smiling version of Joe Biden, not much older, and, no, I don't believe in the opinion polls or their “ margins of error”
( instead of “error” I almost wrote “terror”)
We all know from the King James Version)
“male and female created He them”, just as
we know that as the campaign to capture
the White House intensifies, so does this
thought that has the potential to cause some
offence or bodily harm / abuse to the lurid imagination:
“even the president of the United States sometimes must have to stand naked”
About the Nigerian palaver, Moses Ochonu has the last word : “Should we even be talking about fuel subsidy or about energy security through functional refineries? The framing of the conversation matters. A conversation about domestic refining capacity renders the fuel subsidy debate moot.”
