Old Tweets from WinTwins

I don't check notifications for this account very often, to reach me contact me as @wintwins.bsky.social or better yet @windowseat.bsky.social which is the account I use the most.

This account is just old tweets from wintwins that have been imported to Bluesky; for current posts, see @wintwins.bsky.social (that's the account to follow for sports content) or @windowseat.bsky.social.

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.)

If you want to find me . . .

(Might want to save/bookmark this info as I will probably delete all or most of my posts if not my accounts here soon.)

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.

http://deck.blue is like Tweetdeck.

It's happening. Let's goooooooo.

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).

I'm just saying, is all.

(And over there I always use alt-text but god I'm tired and not up to it just now on this place.)

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.)

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.

In case you need more motivation.

I don't agree with Bernie Sanders on everything, but I do agree with this. I found this very helpful.

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:...

"Morneau told me not to screw it up, but I think I did." - that Joe guy

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!)

Just badly addressed envelopes for cards for both Halloween & Thanksgiving (planning ahead). Used up all those cards. But if you like getting cards and want a winter holiday card & don't mind sharing your contact info with me, you can do that here: https://www.postable.com/laurelkrahn

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

are we doing an west coast east coast rap battle instead of the World Series

That series was amazing but I can’t help but wonder what it would’ve been like with consistent calls. I bet it still would’ve been great and coaches, players, and fans would’ve been happier with the end result.

Easier to take losing to the Liberty if calls were decent.

I did all my yelling about the Lynx on BlueSky.

Still pissed off.

It was a really great season.

There are baseball fans on the BlueSky.

Like Tweetdeck but for BlueSky: http://deck.blue

I'm http://wintwins.bsky.social and http://windowseat.bsky.social over on BlueSky.

Are you over there? Where might Twins Twitter find you?

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.)
