Gov. Pritzker will be in Rockford tomorrow to announce a new "Metra intercity rail project," per his schedule. $275 million was set aside in the Rebuild Illinois capital program to reestablish passenger rail between the city and Chicago. Sounds like Metra will be named operator.

Final thought on this: to me at least, there is nothing less manly, nothing more sweaty & insecure & needy & ... dare I say ... *beta* than feeling the need to constantly signal your masculinity, as though you're terrified people will forget at any second.

Courage. It’s not over. “All things fall and are built again.” Rolling up the sleeves...

“You can wet the rim of a glass and run your finger around the rim and it will make a sound. This is what I feel like: this sound of glass. I feel like the word shatter.” 37 years ago, @MargaretAtwood summed up our feelings on this 4th of July better than we ever could today.

I am deeply saddened to hear that Thomas Lovejoy passed away this week and send my condolences to his friends and family. Known as “the Godfather of Biodiversity”, he contributed tremendously to our understanding of the diversity of life. His work will live on for generations.

Great summary by @drvolts on Illinois clean energy bill .. “this bill is a model of non-zero-sum cooperation: every group gave a little to get a lot.”

Today on Volts: a deep dive into the stellar new energy bill passed by Illinois. It not only targets net-zero emissions, it contains the country's strongest labor, diversity, & equity protections. It's a new Midwest model of people-friendly climate policy. volts.wtf/p/illinois-bri…

Great interactive piece by Dan Egan on Chicago's historical relationship to water, and why we will continue to see an increasingly capricious Lake Michigan as the climate crisis unfolds. nytimes.com/interactive/20…


YESSSS SHOWTIME JOE LET’S GOOOO

Hawkeye Nation.. it’s been an incredible 3 years. I can’t thank you all enough for your support throughout my career… At this time, I’d like to officially announce that I will be keeping my name in the 2021 NBA Draft. I’ll be a Hawkeye for life! #WiesyOuttaHere ✌🏻💛

Remembering that time in grad school when my advisor, a great ornithologist, got a random call: drunk guy, bar noises in background: IS THIS THE BIRD PROFESSOR? my advisor: um..yes? drunk guy: DO HUMMINGBIRDS HAVE FEET? my advisor: ...yes *wild cheering over phone from bar*

When we see our organizations, communities, projects, world as living systems, then curiosity and compassion are the only appropriate ways to engage with everything and everyone. Nothing else makes sense, really.
