🗺️Our advice? Don’t take direction from a false map turtle (Graptemys pseudogeographica).
🐢This critter’s name refers to the (non-navigational) pattern on its carapace. It can be spotted in rivers, lakes, or ponds in Mississippi, Missouri, Arkansas, and Louisiana. The turtle enjoys spending its time basking in the Sun and munching on insects, fish, or aquatic vegetation.
Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva has done it again: Twenty years after first winning the Brazilian presidency, the leftist defeated incumbent Jair Bolsonaro Sunday in an extremely tight election that marks an about-face for the country after four years of far-right politics.
With more than 99% of the votes tallied in the runoff vote, da Silva had 50.9% and Bolsonaro 49.1%, and the election authority said da Silva’s victory was a mathematical certainty.
Good! But the danger of a fascist coup is far from over. We need to be on high alert.
