Here's mine. https://mobile.twitter.com/bravenak
I like to tweet out good posts I find on DU. It would be nice to see what you guys find important and follow you too. We have been divided and infighting too long, so let's come together here and beyond.
This way, if you find a post here or elsewhere, we can bring the info back here and share it out. Who knows? Maybe we will increase our membership here if we spread our message far and wide.
Edit: I love seeing your twitter feeds. We all have so much in common, I will try harder to be better. Love you all!

(22,976 posts)Everyone should know that they could be in for some harassment on Twitter, just FYI. It can get messy, as all the #45 loons have flocked to Twitter to genuflect at their leader's feet. I've spent some time on Twitter, so I speak from experience. If everyone's okay with that possibility, then, yeah.
Not trying to discourage this at all; hell, I'm going to do it myself. Just wanted all to know the risks and no ugly surprises. It's no shock to anyone that 45's boosters are flat-out rabid. They will say some really ugly shit and attempt to intimidate you.
Okay, "Dad's" back in his chair, you kids have fun now!

calimary
(81,440 posts)"but the emails! Emails! Emails!"
Sometimes it's necessary to shame someone if they're just making a partisan small-minded cat-fight out of it. I'm convinced she still hates Hillary because she fancies HERSELF as the Alpha female - "Most Accomplished In The Land". She was merciless and unrelenting. I think it was jealousy, myself. She's not worthy to touch the hem of Hillary's pantsuit pants. She struck me all the way along as one of those who can only feel better about themselves when they're tearing down their nearest "competition". Bet she sniped at other women over desirable/available men when she was younger, too. One of "those."

(29,265 posts)come together..."
Recent posts have been awful, IMO, we need mutual support and peace. It's sad that Bernie and his supporters still make y'all flinch. The infighting is still extremely divisive (recently about the DNC, and many times when anyone posts something positive Bernie is doing) so its great for everyone to see you (at least, hopefully more) are willing to leave this behind now. It seems we need to have a safe word in posts to keep them from getting so mean spirited/toxic.
So...

Hoping to get caught up before I take the dog out for her "final" and then the rest of us give up for the night.

(6,496 posts)Is there a way to integrate Facebook with Twitter because I can't stand the idea of checking more than one social media site and I'm already on Facebook. How do the privacy settings work on Twitter? I'm assuming there are some and you can set it so only your friends or followers or whatever can see what you post. I'd love to see all your feeds if its not too much of a pain in the ass to set this all up.
