It has been 5 weeks, if he could have he would have by now, but he knows he better not. In a sense he is castrated. I will even go as far as to change my recommendation to MaxPen that he should do nothing, just sit on this as long as Singer (or any sockpuppet of) remains in exile.
I'm so thankful I could log in. It means my shunning hasn't become official. Oh thank you, gambling brethren, for not reducing me to a simple winning gambler with a 40-year reputation. If the AP community had shunned me, what (pray tell) would I have done?
I mean, other than what I do every day anyway.
BoSox has pointed out some of the issues nicely. We live in a Trumpian post-truth world. Mickey simply posts what he thinks is the truth. At least the truth today. So if "the truth" changes depending on who somebody votes for and such, so be it. Just because mickey despised Singer a couple of years ago...pshaw, that was truth then. This is truth now. No sense even keeping tabs on it, really, as Orwell explained in 1984. Oceania is the ally; Oceania is the enemy. Depends on the day.
For example, a few days back, mickey posted something about the Wiz messing up by not availing himself of my sports expertise. Today, according to mickey, I have no sports betting expertise. That's a lot of brain cells and credibility for me to have lost in two weeks or thereabouts. And I wasn't even chugging JD with my friend, The Scob.
Mickey is firmly committed to truth-telling. It just changes quite a bit. You know, like the weather.
