A friend is going to the Yucatan in #Mexico soon. I told him I would tell his girlfriend that he is going to meet “Yucca Tanya”. He was quick to tell me that he is doing some side work for one of her relatives who has business interests there.
Oddly, I think I sort of dreamed about building a home videogame console somewhere in Mexico 🇲🇽. It was odd. We were interviewed by TV stations and newspapers and I got to tell them that we wanted to work with certain big companies to use their products and services in our offering.

I would really appreciate shares to get the message out of this. Also, please feel free to translate. I would love to have native Spanish speakers in particular involved as South America is predominantly Spanish-speaking. I know Brazil is Portuguese and one of the smaller northeast countries is English-speaking, but we just need diversity in general and I think having native speakers of other languages is one way to do that.
It's that time again. We are looking for regional judges for the Creative Commons Community Music Awards. Please let me know if you would be interested in taking a region.
The regions we have available are as follows (two regions are already taken):
#Canada
Rocky Mountain - ID, MT, WY, NV, UT, CO
Mid-West - ND, SD, NE, KS, MO, IA, MN, WI, IL, IN, MI, OH
Southwest - OK, TX, NM, AZ
Southeast - AR, LA, MS, AL, GA, FL, TN, SC, NC, KY, WV, VA, DC (if someone really wants to do Northeast with DC, sure, take it)
#Mexico, Central America, and Carribbean (we haven't decided if PR will be here or in US Southeast)
#Asia (minus Russia)
#Oceania (including #Australia)
#SouthAmerica
#Africa
In the future, we would love to break the regions up more, but having smaller regions this year has proved unmanageable. How much of that is due to covid? Who knows.

I have been told in the past that once-a-day posts are fine but any more than that gets tiresome. I doubt I will post daily, but if I post about this too much, please let me know!

“In my state there are more than 100 cases per day, it seems that it has decreased a little. At the national level, we have already exceeded 450,000 infections and 50,000 deaths. The situation is quite tense.”

@geniusmusing #faveNephew keeps telling me that he wants to take me to #Mexico next time he goes to visit his grandmother, but at this point, I doubt it will ever happen.

@simsa03 @xj9 @sim
Yes, the part about losing proficiency without immersion matches my experience. I lived in (West) #Germany during part of my childhood. The military housing area was right across the street from a local housing area, so kids intermingled on the playground. Then I moved back to the US, and within a few years struggled to express anything more than "Wie gehts?"
Living in #SoCal, we had some Spanish language influence. Many of my friends had cousins that would visit from #Mexico, #Ecuador, #Peru, #Venzuela. We'd spend the Summers hanging out and speaking "Spanglish" together, then the rest of the year, that would slowly fade.
And that was at school age. I imagine it will be more difficult now that I'm a few decades older.

The “Popo” #volcano ... Popocatepetl https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Popocat%C3%A9petl #Mexico

#Mexico's cornfield volcano https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Par%C3%ADcutin
.
I read about this years ago. One day a crack opens in the ground in a farmer's field. By the next day, a volcanic cone has grown there.

@awg I'm in favor of immigration (after all, the father of #faveNephew was born in #Mexico), but not the way it happens now. Too many people coming in, most of whom come illegally and are therefore unable to demand employers pay legal wages and benefits and that they adhere to standard US working conditions, hurts those who come legally and those who are already here.
-
#faveNephew reports that they've had no contact with relatives in #Mexico. He believes phone lines are down in their area. #earthquake

@arturovm That looks really close to Popocatepetl. Have you heard anything about volcanic activity recently? https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/us2000ar20#map #mexico #earthquake #7.1
