I Miss Baseball Twitter

Posted

99.9% of the time, I don’t miss Twitter. I don’t miss the nonsense and drama and public shaming and ill conceived thoughts.

But something I was acutely aware might happen was that once baseball season started, I’d feel a small void from not being able to live tweet games.

And I felt it when Aaron Judge hit his first HR of the year, in his first at-bat of the season.

I won’t be going back to Twitter for all of the reasons I stated above (I still get news from my Baseball Twitter list thanks to Reader by Readwise), but I might be turning to Mastodon more…at least during baseball season.

    I keep a set of poker chips at my desk. I like to shuffle them while I think about stuff. I would do the same thing playing poker. Thinking about the cards I’ve been dealt, the bet I want to make, and if I think it will pay off for me. Playing poker is a…
