Shocking how bad things are over here now, used to be if you posted about a major life event, you'd hear from all sorts of people. Now i'm not sure anyone is here to see posts or if my posts are being put in front of many people. (See pinned tweet, find me elsewhere.)

It's ridiculous how many sports fans and sports media members are suddenly on the place with skies of blue as of this past week. So glad. (If you aren't there yet, it's time . . . )

Once you're on bsky, you may want to check out apps or interfaces other than the default. deck.blue is like Tweetdeck.

I think this is the week Twins Twitter (& Baseball Twitter) finally relocated (or at least the move is very definitely in progress with a whole lot more people suddenly showing up or showing up for real now).

Have nearly 50 accounts in the "Twins Tw-tter Starter Pack" over on the blue place, if you want to easily find some people who have been known to post about the Twins here who are now over there. (Can follow all with 1 click or pick & choose.) go.bsky.app/HAStNze

Downloading my archive from this place one last time (probably) before moving all this content over to BlueSky (or at least all of my nonsense posts, not the retweets etc). Election talk over there is mostly drama free, plus lots of pictures of cute animals.

Please vote today if you haven't yet and are eligible. I voted weeks ago for Harris-Walz and strongly recommend voting for them if you're not a fan of fascism. I find Naomi Kritzer's guide to local races helpful:...

Gorg about to talk to Joe Mauer on the Wild game broadcast. Our stream is buffering a ridiculous amount so uncertain if I'll get to see it, coming up after commercial break.

Watched that segment about Freeman on the MLB pre-game, then saw Ant is playing well and switched to the Wolves. Oh hey— and I should head back to BlueSky. I forgot myself. (Hi everybody!)

this place seems super confusing after spending time on a site where there are no ads and all the posts are in chronological order. (You can find me on BlueSky.) <3

Hope to see you folks over on BlueSky. Easy to sign up, works like this place (but better) for the most part now. Blocking works really well & there are other excellent tools that come in handy if you have a post go viral. GIFs and video & DMs are all things there now too....

Going private as that's the only way going forward to keep blocked users from seeing my posts. If you aren't familiar with how to do it, it's under Settings > Privacy and safety > Audience, media and tagging > Protect your posts

Mostly reading and talking about sports on BlueSky now. (More people are doing so now plus there's now video which gosh, may have been a factor.)

Thinking again about how weird it must be to be a pro athlete. Some days you find out (sometimes through the press) that you now have a new employer. Will do most of your work in a new city. With new coworkers. And will have to wear new outfits. WTF.

That thing where all the teams in the AL Central are going to the postseason except the Twins and White Sox. Cool cool. Love to be in a club with a team that lost 121 games.

I found out about the KAT trade when Kevin texted me a link about it, saying he felt like throwing a Wolves magnet away.

I never did break down and get these socks but if I had they’d be sad socks now.

At least I can cheer on the Lynx, I guess. But seriously— I was the most excited about this Wolves team of any Minnesota sports team in a long long time and KAT was basically the core of that for me.

Maybe someone will fail a physical and the trade will fall through? I don’t know. God. I am not okay.

Old Tweets from WinTwins @wintweets.bsky.social · 28/09/2024
Devastated that the Wolves traded KAT. I really do not know how I can support the team going forward. I do not understand this at all. I was so excited for the coming season and then this. WTF.

I shouldn’t be surprised there is apparently Fire Rocco nonsense, but I am a bit. I don’t think what is going on with the Twins is on Rocco unless I’m missing something.

Still in mourning for the asshat. Imagining if it had remained available long enough that all of Baseball Twitter purchased asshats.

Going back in time to Sept 2023 to tell fans that post-Tommy John surgery Ohtani would play in 2024 & become the first player to hit 50 home runs & steal 50 bases in a single season. (Can’t decide if folks would find it hard to believe or think “well, that’s Ohtani for you.”)

Cory brought up Joe. I’ve been slacking and not really listening for Joe mentions lately. (Good to have Justin back in the booth though!)

Making a Twins Twitter list (maybe also a Starter Pack?) on BlueSky and trying to decide what icon would be most appropriate. Feel free to weigh in . . .

Maybe the @Twins and @wccoradio will sponsor a 20th anniversary vow renewal at Target Field next year for the 83 couples that got married (or did vow renewals) at the Dome on Sept 17, 2005. (People always ask me about or suggest this.)...

Not only is this place a Nazi bar, more than half the time search doesn’t seem to work anymore. (Best to move elsewhere.) Clearly, I’ve never before mentioned my wedding to @KevinGAustin or the anniversary of that time we got married at the Metrodome. (19 years ago today.)

Joining BlueSky is as simple as joining this place was (if not easier). My screenshots show what it is like if you want a preview. Go to bsky.app in a web browser & select "Sign up" to get started.

I find it hilarious that this site has crashed on me three times now as I try to post about how to get going on BlueSky. Seems to have problems with me adding alt text to my screenshots. WTF.
