On parle de nous (Les Récoltes du Bout d'en Haut) à Radio-Canada sur notre projet de citronniers en plein terre ! 🍋

ici.radio-canada.ca/nouvelle/221...
La culture de citronniers, possible au Québec?
Loin de la Méditerranée, une culture de citrons prend forme grâce à une méthode... soviétique. Des producteurs du Bas-Saint-Laurent tentent l'aventure.

Alright, I think people knew of the tariff pause and traded it beforehand.

You can see before Trump posted "buy" on Truth Social, traders opened $QQQ $TQQQ and $SPY calls

RIGHT BEFORE THE NEWS, someone opened $SPY 509 calls, expiring TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Those calls are up 2100% in one hour.

Look, what else do you need to see what is happening here? Trump literally said "THIS IS A GREAT TIME TO BUY!!!" 4 hours before calling off tariffs for 90 days. This is the most obvious large scale scam ever. WTF.

Okay lets game this out: You are a Nintendo employee given unlimited funds and authority to move Switch 2 production to the US. No new factories, that's going to take way too long, you need to work with existing American Contract Manufacturing capacity. How fast can you do it?

In a recent episode of the Pivot podcast (Liberation Day, Elon Exit Rumors - 4/4/25) @karaswisher.bsky.social and @jonlovett.bsky.social laid out a brutal picture of the Trump administration’s deportation policies — not just harsh, but chaotic and dangerously incompetent. 1/8

Folks, the *goal* is to tank the dollar. That’s a feature not a bug. Once again begging people to read through this very comprehensive guide to what we’re dealing with right now: www.vcinfodocs.com/venture-capi...

Today, I’m starting to disengage from Meta/Facebook. I’ve been using this platform for way too long, even though I feel a deep disgust for the company and its leaders. The buildup of their missteps, including their submission to trumpist ideology, has become unbearable.

Aujourd’hui, je commence à me désengager de Meta/Facebook. Ça fait trop longtemps que j’utilise cette plateforme malgré le profond dégoût que m’inspirent l’entreprise et ses dirigeants. L’accumulation de leurs dérives, dont leur soumission à l’idéologie trumpiste, est devenue insupportable.
