Things have finally started to settle down. Gonna start doing Twitter more. Name is Dan and I’m an underemployed historian tweeting about whales, water, and life in Oswego on the shores of Lake Ontario, occasionally #BlueJays baseball.

The pride lapel pins on the Blue Jays broadcasters are so clean! 🔥🔥 🌈

⚠️ TRIGGER WARNING ⚠️

HATE CRIME

A RACIST group of WHITE MALES BEAT a BLACK TEENAGER while screaming RACIAL SLURS in a Regal Cinemas parking lot.

📍Simi Valley, California

Witnesses say one of the violent white thugs was Jonah Collado who is the son of a local police officer Gene Collado.

Michael the victim suffered a concussion, a chipped tooth, and other injuries.

Michael who was beaten by a mob of white males deserves justice.

One day I will see this silly story be used by some oceanic historian in very well received book chapter and I love them for that in advance!

Homophone aside: Why is it kickoff at 7:30 when just the national anthem starts at 7:30? First pitch is 7:07 the pitcher throws the ball at 7:07.

@EvanPSullivan Broadening to early America I think Christine Delucia’s Memory Lands handles the complexities of memory in a settler-colonial state excellently. I’d also recommend the 4 part “history under siege” radio program from the ABC. Stay qualified.

@trevorplouffe Dude just created a west coast evil empire and we’re supposed to give him that treatment!

Old school American exceptionalism in reporters whose job it is to cover a sport where the best player is Japanese and the fastest growing demographic is Latino is wild to me.

@roywoodjr What’s their rotation look like 👀👀

[Dan Petty @danpetty5]

I’m a Blue Jays fan as much as anyone but you’re fooling yourself if you don’t think the Canadian issue is not a factor in signing top level free agents. It may not be the money or the culture but it damn well is the baseball media that make one reconsider. It’s a damn shame.

[Dan Petty @danpetty5]

I don’t hate Yankees or Dodger fans but boy am I excited to talk crap about every loss this season just because their fan bases are obnoxious beyond belief.

[Dan Petty @danpetty5]

Excited to see what @JOLaMaKina @KevinGausman and @27vladdyjr put together this season. Feed off the hate!

[Dan Petty @danpetty5]

@JoezMcfLy You been posting as if it was ridiculous to think he’d even come to Toronto. It was erroneous and that’s cool I’ll eat that but I’d argue the whole let’s laugh at Jays fans for being excited about their front office attempting big moves is bad for the game overall. All love pop!

[Dan Petty @danpetty5]

Super excited to add the Dodgers to the list of petty hate.
