Illinois Democratic Governor J.B. Pritzker revealed during a speech this week that he clashed with President Donald Trump during the first Trump administration after Trump promised necessary medical equipment during the COVID pandemic on the condition that Pritzker praise him publicly.

Wowww

Let's make sure we convert outrage over narcissist hypocrisy into action to get rid of this president.

#25a anybody?

Constant protest?

@georgetakei actually, from my European view, I cannot understand why the people in America don't strongly oppose such atrocious moves from the government. They should make signs towards #Canada and #Mexico.

#elbowsup

And frankly, we can use tens of millions of Americans to stand up, lift their elbows and stop invasion plans of Canada, Greenland and Panama. He's your facist. You're not stuck with him. Get rid of him before they just start shooting protestors and closing your borders...to you!

Those of you sitting down, condone the fascism.

Time to choose, my babies! We have, already.

The #tesla market cap had been over us$1t for so long, now they can barely keep it at us$800b.

Yesterday it was us$774b

#marketcap = stock price x number of shares

@georgetakei Ol' Patrick Brazeau doing Patrick Brazeau things. I don't know if this is a good deal for #Canada, he lost the last fist fight he had with a politician.

But something suggests to me that he might be able to sort Lil Donnie out fairly quckly.

I can't think of a better way of pissing off Trump than for #Canada to go ahead with building the proposed Alto high-speed rail project.

A multi-billion high-tech megaproject, that would deliver faster trains than the US has, using Canadian steel + aluminum.

Might even kick off a modern version of the space race.

The #rewilded #GolfCourses teeming with life

Jocelyn Timperley, February 14, 2025

"From #Scotland to #California, golf courses are being rewilded – with lofty aims to benefit both people and #nature.

"Sinking into nature comes easy at the #PlockOfKyle. I visit this tiny wedge of parkland on the west coast of Scotland, just across the bridge from the Isle of Skye, on a rainy day in late September, and park ranger Heather Beaton and I spend the afternoon wandering around its various #ecosystems-in-miniature.

"We clamber over rocks at one of its little hidden natural harbours. We freeze as black darter dragonflies land on her pink shoe by a pond. And we bend to peer at circles of huge mushrooms which have sprung up overnight in its tiny woodland.

"A #WildflowerMeadow, ponds, scrub habitat, coastline and even an area of peat bog can be found on this little 60-acre (24-hectare) plot, which boasts roe deer, otters, lizards, eels and a huge array of insects and birds. 'We do describe it as a microcosm of Scotland,' says Beaton. 'If you think of all of the major habitats of Scotland, we've got them here on the Plock, just in miniature.' It's an impression she works to cultivate. 'The more little pockets we have, the more chance a person has to... end up having a nature experience,' she says.

"All of these habitats had fallen into serious disarray until a few years ago, says Beaton. In fact, most of this area used to be a golf course.

"The Plock is part of a small but significant global trend of land once used for golf being turned back over to nature. From #California to #Pennsylvania and #Australia to #Canada, these projects are reaping in some big rewards for both #biodiversity and local people."
