Listen to the wind blow…
Reporting along with @ken-rosenthal.bsky.social: Twins are reuniting with former All-Star closer Taylor Rogers on a one-year, $2 million contract.
Logical fit for both sides, as the 35-year-old Rogers returns home to the team that drafted him and the Twins add some much-needed bullpen help.

Welcome to the conversation. Will you and your colleagues be doing anything to stop this?
Children! Absolutely disgraceful. This is what happens when Donald Trump’s government pays bounties for people. Doesn’t matter if they’re legal. Doesn’t matter who they are. Doesn’t matter if they’re five-years-old. How can anyone justify this any more?
A 5-year-old preschool student was taken with his father by federal immigration agents shortly after arriving home from school, Columbia Heights school leaders said Jan. 21.

Thing I learned today: when it’s super duper cold outside, I should avoid using my crockpot near a window, because doing so causes my window to break. 🤦♀️

No Blue Jays, Orioles, Rays, Twins, Royals, White Sox, A’s, Angels, Marlins, Nationals, Brewers, or Rockies. But sure, let’s watch the Mets and Red Sox four times.

The video shows an execution. And as we saw with George Floyd, there will be a tidal wave of creeps, bigots, and grifters telling you it doesn't. It's already started, I imagine.
Don't let them.

Bought myself a new purse for the first time in forever. As I’m cleaning out my old one, I wonder…do I need to keep my Covid-19 vaccination card?

The First Day of Christmas is Christmas Day. The Twelfth Day of Christmas is Epiphany (Jan 6). Because it took that long for the wise men to get there.
So, all the giving of the birds and stuff happens in between Christmas and Epiphany.

There is a certain poetry to finishing shoveling right when it starts snowing again.
Also it’s snowing again.
