Guessing Danny’s in Twitter jail at the moment since he’s not posted on there for nearly a week (and there’s a “This Tweet violated the Twitter Rules” on his timeline). Shame as he did a comic-con with Doug yesterday so might have been some juice to spill.

Why won’t somebody alleviate my terrible, pointless life by telling me there’s new Red Dwarf greenlit? That ought to keep me going for another six months. In the mean time I will rely on Popeye’s chicken sandwiches.

I’m still not totally on board with it, and very picky, but I come across about one series a year I really get into, hopefully all the way to my inevitable death. (Usually older shit which has a headstart of nostalgic animation style and sound effects from 80s cartoons).

Do you think Danny likes hentai?

Danny appears to be being fitted for a new set of Cat fangs…

Fangs For The Memory

I wonder if anybody in the comments has posted a Duane Dibbley joke yet.

I wonder if anybody in the comments has posted a Duane Dibbley joke yet.

There was one I saw when I looked at the post earlier, but apparently autocorrect turned it into Duane Dribble.  Quite appropriate though for dental stuff! 

Edit: I misremembered, there are loads.  That was evidently the only one that stayed in my mind.

There’s no way he’s getting fitted for Cat teeth for Red Dwarf unless that convention meeting was preternaturally productive.

[RunawayTrain]

Danny does seem to have a habit of posting old images/clips without saying they’re old, or simply joking around with the caption.

[Podey]

Yes, I’m assuming it’s an old clip, though the fact he looks exactly like he did at the convention a few weeks ago in terms of facial hair made me think there is a slim chance it’s current.

There’s no way he’s getting fitted for Cat teeth for Red Dwarf unless that convention meeting was preternaturally productive.

I mentioned to Doug at the convention that I hadn’t managed to get to a live recording yet and he implied that I may have a chance again before long but not strong enough that I would say there is DEFINITELY more Dwarf happening. 

[Moonlight]

I’ve never been to a live recording but that might have more to do with the fact that the Atlantic Ocean is in the way. It’s still on my bucket list, but like, the bucket list of shit I know I will never do.

I hadn’t seen any of this, but looking at his Twitter activity over the past couple of days it seems like things have been pretty wild.

[Flap Jack]

I feel like I’ll regret asking, but what did he say?

The original tweet is gone, but from context it was Middle East conflict related, and it sounds like it wasn’t just regular Palestinian sympathies that got misinterpreted…

[International Debris]

Who’d have thought a Twitter argument about the global history of institutional racism, had between some right wing hardliners and the ever eloquent Danny John Jules would end up as such a shit show?

Seriously, though, if he can’t argue on the issue of racism against blacks without coming out the other side looking like a racist himself, he really needs to reconsider his use of social media. He’s coming across far worse just because of how utterly garbled him comments are. 

[Stephen Abootman]

I think the original tweet was a #NewProfilePic with the Palestinian flag since I can’t see that anymore. 

[International Debris]

From what I can tell, he was picked up on supporting Palestine by right-wingers, and then it began to get into comparing racism against Jews with racism against blacks, and it might be here that he said some fairly stupid things in anger and it got out of hand. There seems to be a particular tweet that was widely quote-tweeted that’s since been deleted that was probably the offending article. And instead of attempting to clear it up, he’s been replying to things with his usual non-sequiturs.

[Frank Smeghammer]

To be honest, it looks like he started off showing solidarity with Palestine but there’s some really questionable tweets about and in response to Jews.

But of course, he will say “I never said that”. Because his stream of non-sequiturs means he can hide behind “I was misinterpreted”.

He really needs to get off social media. He has been like this for years. He is quite an intelligent man who end up looking like the biggest clown on the planet when he starts tweeting.

That’s best case scenario. Worst case scenario is that he really does believe those things.

[Ian Symes]

Yeah, I think it started off with Danny being falsely accused of antisemitism… but then some of the things he said in response to that could easily be interpreted as antisemitic.

[Stephen Abootman]

I’m not sure I’ve ever felt the need for a 3 minute, full band version of Little Fishy but at least it beats what he was talking about last week.

It’s been over thirty years. Not sure she’s still going to be a Maid.

[loadoftottnumb]

Not going to link to it or repeat it, but I really wish DJJ hadn’t updated his Twitter.
