Important, but also the racism came out here in this reply I got:

Like wtf is this person's problem. Can't even see indigenous people take pride in their roots without being racist, smh. Really be here using the derogatory and racist "indio," huh. Just proves the point in the TikTok. And the worst part is they are part of different minority groups and decide to act like a clown:

Proud indigenous Zapotec forever 🇲🇽

Fck racists and racism.

#🇲🇽 #this clown also said they were northern mexican and are superior to 'indios' so this racism in mexico against indigenous people also needs #to be addressed and talked about #racism #mexico #native #indigenous #oaxaca mexico #puebla mexico #mixtec #zapotec #discrimination against mexicans

5-ish Things I Adore (End of 2022/Early 2023 Edition)

I used to do these things all the time, but fell out of the habit! So this post is mostly for me, but I hope you enjoy too, internet.

01. What’s on TV

I am notoriously behind trend on TV shows; my friends are constantly asking me if I’ve seen their favorite show of the moment, and my answer is almost always ‘no’. Sorry that I decided to rewatch the entire run of Scrubs instead of watching White Lotus, but it is what it is.

I’m catching up now though! And YES, Severance is just as incredible as everyone says it is.

Honorable mention goes to Wednesday for just being fun.

02. At the movies

Hands down my favorite film of 2022 was Everything Everywhere All at Once. I don’t think I have ever had a film experience like it. Truly a masterpiece of a film. I would die for Michelle Yeoh.

Honorable mention to Glass Onion which is so much fucking fun! I would also die for Janelle Monáe.

03. In this world

I was lucky enough to travel to a few places in 2022, but absolutely fell in love with Oaxaca, Mexico. What a magical place. I am dying to go back!

Honorable mention goes to, of all places, Tacoma, Washington! It’s so charming and no longer smells terrible!

04. Culture Trip

I gratefully live in a major city with tons of museums, and hands down the best exhibition I saw in the last 12 months was Guo Pei: Couture Fantasy at the Legion of Honor. Truly breathtaking, and the way the museum integrated many of her works into their permanent exhibits was fantastic.

Honorable mention goes to Hella Feminist at Oakland Museum of California, which I may have enjoyed more had it not been so overwhelmingly crowded when I saw it.

05. On the shelf

My most unexpected favorite of this year was a phenomenal book of poetry titled new names for lost things by Noor Unnahar. Like many people, I walk around most days filled up with grief that I don’t know how to articulate, so these poems are a treasure to find. I revisit them often.

Honorable mention goes to The Office of Historical Corrections by Danielle Evans.

Vintage Mexican Pottery Aztec Calendar Alfareria Jimenez Oaxaca 

Intricately carved and with extreme detail, this circa 1950s Aztec calendar plate was made by hand by Alfareria Jimenez of Oaxaca, Mexico. 

The plate is expertly carved. The geometric pattern for this plate is based on a Mixtec design found in the temples of Mitla, outside of Oaxaca. The design requires hours of work. The redware pottery pieces were dipped in an ivory glaze and then hand tooled to remove glaze in small amounts, leaving the underlying clay to show through. This type of hand-carved Mexican pottery is becoming very hard to find.

The Jimenez family is noted for their craftsmanship in hand-made dinnerware & decorative items. This plate is marked on the back "Alfareria Jimenez Zaragdza # 13 Oaxaca Mexico Calendario Azteca Hecho A Mano".

Item measures 10 ⅝" across. It is in excellent condition with a minor chip on the rim at the bottom. It is shown in two of the photos.

As of 7/4/23, this plate is still available in my Etsy Shop. https://iSearchedandFound.com

"Mexico’s government recently announced the creation of 20 new protected areas across 12 states and two coastal areas in the country, covering roughly 2.3 million hectares (5.7 million acres). This follows a series of budget cuts to the nation’s environmental agencies.

Officials introduced four new national parks, four “flora and fauna protection areas,” seven sanctuaries, two biosphere reserves and three “natural resources protection areas” under the protection of the National Commission of Protected Natural Areas (CONANP).

“This is a commendable step toward biodiversity conservation and environmental protection,” said Gina Chacón, director of the Wildland Network’s public policy program in Mexico. She told Mongabay these new areas will help preserve the country’s rich ecosystems, foster sustainable practices and protect a broad range of important species and habitats. Though some environmental and Indigenous groups are wary the budget cuts could hinder efforts to conserve these areas.

The newly protected areas will preserve habitat and ecologically important marine areas for various species, including whale sharks (Rhincodon typus), Mexican prairie dogs (Cynomys mexicanus) and jaguars (Panthera onca). They will also help safeguard ecologically important coral reefs and areas of cultural significance to Indigenous communities.

Bajos del Norte, a new national park in the Gulf of Mexico, is the largest new protected area, covering 1,304,114 hectares (3,222,535 acres), almost nine times the size of Mexico City. The area is important to the more than 3,000 families that belong to fishing communities on the Yucatán coast. It is also one of the main grouper fish (Epinephelinae) reproduction sites in the Gulf of Mexico and will safeguard threatened species, such as the rocky star coral (Orbicella annularis) and the hawksbill turtle (Eretmochelys imbricata).

Joaquín Núñez Medrano, the secretary of the UEFAHG or Union of Forestry and Agricultural Ejidos Hermenegildo Galeana A.C. (Unión de Ejidos Forestales y Agropecuarios Hermenegildo Galeana), lives in an ejido — a type of communally owned land used for agriculture and forestry purposes — called Cordòn Grande in Sierra Grande of Guerrero, along the Pacific Coast. For more than 10 years, Medrano’s community has monitored species such as the jaguar and sustainably managed the ejido’s natural resources, without government assistance.

But now, the ejido has been designated a protected area in this latest round of decrees, as it falls inside part of the new Sierra Tecuani reserve. “The goal is to strengthen what we have already been doing but with support to do it much better,” he told Mongabay.

The second- and third-largest newly protected areas are Sierra Tecuani, a 348,140-hectare (860,272-acre) biosphere reserve threatened by illegal logging, forest fires and land use changes, and the Semidesierto Zacatecas Flora and Fauna Protection Area, which is important for the recovery of the Mexican prairie dog.

The state of Oaxaca is where the government created the most new protected areas, numbering three: the 90-hectare (222-acre) Playa Morro Ayuta Sanctuary, the 56-hectare (138-acre) Barra de la Cruz-Playa Grande Sanctuary and the 261-hectare (645-acre) Playa Cahuitán Sanctuary. Other protected areas were created in the states of Quintana Roo, Veracruz, Campeche, Nayarit, Zacatecas, Chiapas, Colima, Durango, Jalisco, Chihuahua, Guerrero and the State of Mexico...

President Andrés Manuel López Obrador has protected more areas than any previous administration, with a total of 43 new areas across 3 million hectares (7.4 million acres). But Mexico’s Secretariat of Environment and Natural Resources (SEMARNAT), which works to safeguard the environment, has become severely cash-strapped throughout his six-year term.

SEMARNAT is one of many sectors in Mexico undergoing funding cuts. In recent years, Obrador’s government has implemented a series of strict austerity measures to free up more money for other areas like pensions and wages, boosting the leader’s popularity among citizens, particularly the working-class. Judicial workers, health services and academia have also had their budgets slashed in 2024...

Juan Bezaury-Creel, the director of the organization Fundación BD BioDiversidad Mexicana, said a protected area is better than no protected area because, once a decree is formalized, the government has a duty to protect it. However, this puts “huge pressure on existing personnel because they have to take care of more surface area with less resources,” he told Mongabay.

“The personnel from CONANP are heroic,” he said. “They are putting their lives on the line many times with little budget and little help.”"
