👋🏼As a reminder to the new folks... deck.blue is a great option similar to Tweetdeck. Look thru lists & starter packs to find people & accounts to follow (I have a few lists of meteorologists & other randomness). The Sky Follower Bridge Chrome extension helps find folks from other platforms.

Had an opportunity to narrate the Wings over Edenton airshow Saturday. A small show but a great learning experience. Thanks to Chris Thomas with Warbird Thunder for giving me the chance! It was great to announce your act and the show overall.

So perhaps I can keep my main feed a little more sane than my Twitter feed... but I still like the "news" aspect of Twitter for info. Is there a good list anyone has found for US/breaking news?
