My god even after being put in jail, weens still suck at being funny. Like I just found this and has anyone found the original source to it

 
One of Geno's videos showed up on my reccomended feed, and I decided to watch it for background noise. It's funny how Chris is an almost 40 year old man, who looks like he's a 60 year old woman, but carries himself as a young and setsy 20 something year old girl.

Richard Burnish is a parody of televangelists. This isn't weens (well, a ween may be helping with the joke), the whole thing is meant as a joke.
 
Ah I thought this was a ween trying to prank call in some show

I mean, I suppose the ween could have been *really* stupid and thought he was pranking a legit Christian shopping channel, but I imagine it was just a regular Burnish viewer that understands the joke. From what I can tell, the calls Burnish receives are a mixture of planned calls, fans calling in to participate in the madness, and occasionally a very stupid person who thinks it's a legit Christian ministry.

He calls in regularly. Not a very funny caller though. We also have a thread dedicated to the show here though.

I could see someone puts phone numbers of Yuri Geller and Joel Osteen as their own and then Chris calls him.
 
All things told despite Chris being an unreliable narrator his main trait is complaining. If it was as bad as we expected I think we'd see more of that in his letters.

Good for Chris is not the same thing as good for his handlers (as Barb found out the hard way). Just saying.

I wonder how Chris would react to a fine dining experience, getting served some properly made dishes.

Most such places wouldn't even let him wash the dishes, much less serve him them.

That said, there were some missed opportunities for triple-A league weenery there.

Still, yes, it's relatively new.

New enough that they're probably still looking up adult foster care homes in the directory. Chris may be the case that forces them to streamline the process (but probably not - Chris is not worth the trouble).

Basically all medical facilities in the state must accept a uniform HIPAA authorization from the corrections system, so the department of corrections doesn't have to fill out individual HIPAA forms for each individual facility.

Thank fuck they're finally beginning to see the light there. Does this apply only to the Dept. of Corrections, or can anyone get a generic, universal HIPAA release? You do not want to know how many different HIPAA authorizations I have scanned into my phone.

Oh and get this -- the legislator that proposed the bill was ROB FUCKING BELL:

I'm surprised and yet not surprised. Also very amused. So I guess Chris was worth the trouble after all. There's a man who can see into the future.

This rules out Dr. Greyhound,

Dr. Greyhound only handles out of state patients. I think they'll try sending Chris to Dr. Uber first.

And it looks like this only puts Drs. Uber and Greyhound at one step removed. It looks to me like it requires a plan, but not necessarily a good plan, coordinating with the local social services providers (private or public - not specified) to make sure they have a plan to place him somewhere. At least for 30 days. Then the prison can wash their hands of him. So in other words, the prison can't dump him on the streets (for 30 days), but can negotiate a release arrangement that hands him over to another mental health agency that can. Worst case, Chris gets a 30 day reprieve at a temporary mental respite facility before they give him a ticket for Dr. Greyhound (or just open the door and boot him out). They'll probably do their best to place him somewhere, but there's no guarantee they'll succeed.

but could just mean "go see this therapist plz".

Most cases they'll probably send to a closed facility for 1 to 4 weeks to stabilize medication while looking for a permanent placement. Chris isn't on any medications, though, so it's possible the local social services puts him in a local fleabag vagrant motel for 30 days while politely suggesting he come into their out-patient clinic once a week.

At his word, him being banned from the rec yard probably paints a picture of someone being more difficult.

Or more endangered. Chris is more at risk in the yard than the yard is at risk from Chris.

he main reason is chris' lawyer, he will push for as many continuances as possible that way when he's ready to accept whatever deal is offered he can use chris' time served. it's pretty common

I doubt that's the case here. Nobody's trying to get Chris to accept a plea despite himself. Chris is a coward. He'd agree to ANYTHING at the very first day if you told him the only alternative was jail with all the slow-in-the-minds and niggos.

Nah, drop enough money and they stop caring. I've gone unshaven stubble, jeans, t-shirt, ratty combat boots. When you get into $500+/head prix fixe territory it's not too important. They'll just stick you in a corner where other patrons won't see you as much. The waiters actually seem to appreciate it because they know you're not just some hobo since you actually have money, but you're also not a pretentious fuck.

(EDIT: Not that Chris *isn't* a pretentious fuck, it's just a different kind of pretentiousness.)

Some old money places actually enforce dress codes but tons of very good places don't.

The only caveat would be you'd have to monitor Chris to keep him from shouting.

I wonder how Chris would deal with being at a table with a personal wait staff. Dudes just standing there watching him eat and constantly cleaning up any little crumb he drops, etc., carefully swapping in tiny bowls of caviar.

New enough that they're probably still looking up adult foster care homes in the directory. Chris may be the case that forces them to streamline the process (but probably not - Chris is not worth the trouble).

He's in a smaller court so it probably won't be used much, but that also means they can put in more personalized effort to get rid of the problem for good. Chris is fucked up enough they can probably bump him up on the priority list somewhat. Veterans get first dibs but I could see Chris getting slotted in just below them. Chris is exactly the right level of mentally ill to function in supportive housing. (Can mostly feed/clothe himself, won't stab his neighbors probably, etc.). Too crazy to live unsupervised, not crazy enough to be hospitalized.

Thank fuck they're finally beginning to see the light there. Does this apply only to the Dept. of Corrections, or can anyone get a generic, universal HIPAA release? You do not want to know how many different HIPAA authorizations I have scanned into my phone.

Sadly, no. It is only for staff of jails/prisons and state hospitals. Even if it did work for everyone, it's a Virginia law so it'd only apply in Virginia. On the other hand, this means that you might be able to leverage it for your client if they are incarcerated by requesting corrections provide treatment, telling corrections to get the info needed for it. Since it's an easy process for them now, there'd be less resistance. Then you can have that facility release all the collated records to you in one go.

Also I should clarify that, now that I've read it more closely, the statute doesn't *really* specify that the form be uniform -- I'm just assuming they'll make a uniform one to save the corrections facilities from having to make their own. If they half-ass it I suppose every jail and prison could make their own request form for shits and giggles. It only specifies that the recipient must comply with the request. I guess that means the form could be "Superintendant Dave sez send me Stabber Jud's records". Notably the statute says that *any* staff member can request it as long as it's for the treatment of the mentally ill inmate.

I'm surprised and yet not surprised. Also very amused. So I guess Chris was worth the trouble after all. There's a man who can see into the future.

Bell makes a big deal about mental health treatment on his website. I wonder if Chris had an effect on him. That said, looking at the LIS record of bills he was primary sponsor on across various sessions, Bell mostly seems to push tough-on-crime bills that are bad for Chris. Notably, Bell had nothing to do with the mental health evidence statute that went into effect in 2021 (probably the single biggest boon for Chris in his current case) -- that one was pushed entirely by democrats.

Dr. Greyhound only handles out of state patients. I think they'll try sending Chris to Dr. Uber first.

I think Chris will be savvy enough to ask where he's going first and protest mightily if it's going to dump him in a far away strange place, even if it's still in Virginia.

I've seen the magic tard doggie bus arrive in person before. I think the practice has dropped off a bit more recently. Cities have started to realize that shipping homeless tards back and forth to each other just costs money and doesn't actually reduce the tard population. The big Las Vegas lawsuit was kind of a turning point.

And it looks like this only puts Drs. Uber and Greyhound at one step removed. It looks to me like it requires a plan, but not necessarily a good plan, coordinating with the local social services providers (private or public - not specified) to make sure they have a plan to place him somewhere. At least for 30 days. Then the prison can wash their hands of him.

They'll probably do their best to place him somewhere, but there's no guarantee they'll succeed.

I'm crossing my fingers that it turns out okay. Chris is somewhat manageable, he just can't figure shit out for himself. He might claim to be Jesus but he knows to stay where he has food and shelter -- he can't even handle sleeping in a van, let alone on the street. He's not like the people who voluntarily sleep on the sidewalk because the people at the home were CIA trying to plant microchips in them.

I doubt that's the case here. Nobody's trying to get Chris to accept a plea despite himself. Chris is a coward. He'd agree to ANYTHING at the very first day if you told him the only alternative was jail with all the slow-in-the-minds and niggos.

If Heilberg is being thoughtful, he's aware of the SSDI situation and is intentionally dragging it out to keep Chris' tugboat going until he has sufficient time served to get out immediately. It's a shitty appointed attorney job, but he does have the reputation of his practice to uphold, so there's an incentive for him to give his client the best possible outcome he can. He's not an overworked public defender with 100+ cases on his plate and no private clients to advertise to. (Not dissing PDs, just understand why they don't always have the time to do the best job)

I wouldn't be surprised if they give him a "fine dining etiquette" like you have to talk with a smug rich person accent.
Chris isn't cultured. His standard of a luxury hotel had fucking dozens of supermarket air fresheners on every room to keep the place clean, while actual high end hotels sometimes even have fragrances they apply to guest rooms. I doubt Chris knows anything about actual food, food to Chris begins in TV dinners and ends in McDonald's!
I'm pretty sure Chris knows what a home-cooked food is. The closest thing to cooking is the Blue Apron package, but it's easier to heat up Banquet in the microwave.

I'm looking at the transcript of Chris' call with Bella. Why does he stress sigh so much in that call? He did something he was proud of, wasn't being coerced for the information, wasn't being mocked, and in general was put in the most comfortable situation to discuss fucking his mom. What, did he view fucking his mom as a chore? Or were his hormones so out of control that he couldn't tell whether fucking his mom was a pleasurable thing or not?
 
Considering everything he’s done, is there even now a time where you felt genuinely sorry for Chris and felt he didn’t deserve something bad happen to him? Either it wasn’t his fault and he was being unfairly harassed like anybody else often is?
