remember folks, we cant have gun restrictions because if we do the federal government will occupy our streets, imprison people without due process, ship dissidents to foreign gulags and things of that nature

"The idea is to make city governments helpless while continuing to blame them for everything that goes wrong in cities," writes @humantransit.bsky.social . "It plays well in conservative media, but it’s not fair and it’s certainly not democracy."

For 2 years they’ve been running the team like they don’t want to have anything to do with it. And the fans certainly don’t want to have anything to do with them. This felt like a mutual parting of ways. Instead, now we’re stuck in this dead-end relationship forever.

Twins lost 2 of 3 to the NL-worst Rockies a couple weeks ago. Soon afterward they traded 10 of their best players, then replaced them with a bunch of AAA players and randos from the waiver wire. So of course they now go take 2 of 3 from the AL-best Tigers. Baseball, man

This was ugly. I’m genuinely upset. I can see trading free agents-to-be and I even get cashing in Duran/Jax when their value is high. But unceremoniously dumping your superstar shortstop for nothing? Trading a talented, cheap reliever with years of control left? It’s like a middle finger to the fans

Paddack, Duran, Stewart, Bader, Correa, Coulombe. I assume Castro will also be gone by EOD. Outside chance on Jax and Vazquez too. I’ve never seen them blow things up to this extent

He had some fantastic moments.
lord kinbote (@minndb.bsky.social)
As a Twins fan, the last two years have been the most disheartening since the dark days of contraction. Getting Correa was such a coup, and they looked poised to be perennial contenders after ‘23. Instead ownership decided to pinch pennies and the young position players regressed. Now it’s all gone
