From the open letter that “Jarvis” wrote to Twitter:

As I attempted to post a tweet, another message popped up, informing me that my account was indeed, banned. My fingers silenced. My thumbs impotent. I sunk to my knees and let out a raw, animalistic scream. The evenings spent at Wrightly’s Primeval Naturist Therapy Clinic had served me well, as the ground fair shook beneath me.
