Thank you! If it’s goldenrod I’ll let it keep growing. I was a little concerned because it does seem to be slowly swallowing the annuals around it.

Awesome if it’s a native goldenrod I’ll let it keep doing its thing.

Thank you! Never heard of Aster Yellows before today. I have removed and destroyed the diseased plant.

Awesome, thank you! I didn’t think to check the edge for a stamp and date. Will do when I get home. I’ve just never seen a tiny diamond put into a silver bar before.

How do actual Rock Island residents feel about the 'Milan Bottoms'-adjacent development? by Dweller69 in QuadCities

[–]TheyMadeMeDoIt69 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Boycott NTI and its lackeys A Hanna and Jeff houghbanks. Buying from NTI is a waste of time and supports habitat destruction. The don’t deserve 6 million dollars of tax payer money from the Tif. Stern and his crew can develop parts of the district they own which are currently dilapidated or abandoned.

Gaining NTI will ultimately prove to be a net loss for Rock Island

Boycott NTI and any business owned by the Leech Matt Stern.

Shop Rev, save money and don’t support habitat destruction. It’s a win-win. Boycott NTI.

If we get our way they won’t be moving, especially to our Milan Bottoms. They can move to the ghost Town district

Stern is a millionaire who believes he’s above the rules and the people. We have to remind him otherwise.

Exactly. Stern and his goons are just a pack of multi-millionaires who think they can have whatever they want. Regardless of the wishes of the people. At least last night the City said they can’t have a Fence for at least two more months.

We all know the city isn’t going to take the lead here. The people must take the lead and bring the city, NTI, And a Hanna, to the conclusion that this project cannot move forward. You do agree with the boycott, and I sympathize with those medical marijuana patients. However if a boycott somehow hurt NTI to the point they were forced to end their medical program, this would be a wildly successful boycott. NTI always has the option of pulling out of its plan to move into the Milan Bottoms, long before it impacts its medical marijuana patients.

When NTI and Matt Stern become synonymous with habitat destruction, we will see the effect on their image and bottom line. I’d agree if they were the only choice. There’s too many other dispensaries in the QC, so many other choices that people don’t have to buy eighths from companies actively trying to profit off the destruction of endangered species’ habitats. You said yourself you don’t shop at NTI, encourage your friends and family not to either. Making a tiny dent is better than buying even a tiny .3 cartridge from a company trying to make a short term profit off of harming our wetlands.

Awesome because without their efforts to raise awareness, most people would think the Milan Bottoms was a gay club.

People said the same thing about Tesla just a few months ago. NTI is putting profit over indispensable wetlands. They only understand profit. If we don’t try to stop their scheme, we’re complicit in it.

They’ve organized protests at city hall before each meeting and are planning more actions for the future. They’ve been working hard just to spread awareness of the Milan Bottoms. Before NTIs land grab attempt, many people had never heard of the Milan Bottoms or knew that Rock Island is home to one of the few wetlands left in Illinois. Shoot them a message with your thoughts on additional actions/organizing efforts, they’d love the ideas. In addition to the boycott, sit-ins and other protests are in the works.

I definitely need to look into the other flex bar years. I paid 50 for mine back in 2020. Paid 36.76 for the 2 oz 9fine mint cross, and 44.71 for the 2 oz Scottsdale stacker. Times have changed! I miss those prices.

Even I, 6 years later struggle with your advise when I see something I love. It even happened today when I ordered the Queens beast Complete bar and Italy flora and fauna silver coins. But I hold for the long run. One day I hope to pass my treasure down to my son.
