Reminder to my friends on here.
There is a much better place similar in structure to this one where you can post, have fun, and doesn't have a billion bots along with generating CSAM
It's tough to quit, bc most of your friends are here, but you can also convince them to leave
First Twins game of Spring Training. I super miss my Twins friends from here.
So I say, selfishly, Please come away from this terrible place. I promise the other place is a floppity-jillion x's better.
Just popping back over, apropos of nothing, to say that the other app would WELCOME Twins Twitter with open arms.
We've missed all of you (and I, for one, have no desire to ever come back FT to this place)
Really hope that the Reporters/Journalists/etc. that have all made accounts, but not been posting all that much realize the engagement difference.
I know no one gives a damn, but I doubt you'll be hearing much of anything from me on this app anymore. Spent the last couple days on BlueSky without checking this app at all and have felt Much better about my social media intake.
It's a much better app and space rn. Come on over
This Man. If you ever are just in need of music that will take you to a better place (as I trust we all will for the foreseeable future)... Find yourself some Lou Donaldson.
Here's a couple pictures of him I took at The Dakota.
We are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of bandleader, composer and saxophonist Lou Donaldson.
Known as “Sweet Poppa Lou” Donaldson was the final surviving member of the original Art Blakey quintet that in 1954 introduced “hard bop” into the growing jazz lineage of classification. He also stands as a pioneer of soul jazz, helping to shape the genre by merging bebop with blues, gospel, and R&B elements.
Known for his rich, soulful tone and groove-oriented sound, Donaldson made jazz more accessible and danceable, paving the way for the soulful, funky styles that followed. His innovative approach, particularly on albums like Alligator Bogaloo and Blues Walk, helped expand the music’s reach to a broader audience while maintaining its expressive depth.
Donaldson also helped launch the career of Clifford Brown, the gifted trumpeter who was just 25 when he was killed in a 1956 road accident. He also was on hand for some of pianist Horace Silver’s earliest sessions.

Sometimes I feel like Jaden does these weird little “I swear this isn’t a foul” thing with his arms and it draws attention to the fact that it’s clearly a foul. He’s running from the crime scene with his hands in his pockets going hey man nothing to see here.
Twins Twitter...I need you to nudge Wolves Twitter over to the new digs.
I simply cannot be on this app any longer. Too much rage bait literally everywhere.
The new place is so shiny, clean, and fun.
Daughter picked up her "do" reading flashcard upside down and said "ope!"
We're doing just fine over here. At least for today.
Literally heard misogynistic, racist gloating from two classmates yesterday.
You may not think of yourselves as these things, but it is what you voted for, and the rhetoric that you say doesn't exist and is silent is *gestures at this Entire Platform* everywhere on here.

Just a quick note here in advance of Trump and Musk crashing the economy in 2025: Trump voters are going to blame Democrats for that too.
Read up on fascism and cults and stop assuming we have a rational electorate that’s actually looking at economic indicators. It simply isn’t.
The same reason Obama won is the same reason Trump won (wrongly).... The economy.
We were in the midst of a recession and Obama offered change. Now we're coming out of devastating inflation, which people are so feeling, & ppl went with Trump. (1/?)
