As I read the daily news I am reminded of history.
In particular the history of Charles I, Louis XVI, Nicholas II, Maximilian I (of Mexico).
I remember history, 'cause, as is said, if I forget it I would be doomed to repeat it.
In Mexico, people call Oracle the company "Obstacle".
And I think this is beautiful.

Claudia Sheinbaum made history when she became Mexico’s first woman president — and the first of Jewish heritage. But on the night of September 15, she made history again. Standing on the Palacio Nacional balcony, clad in white, royal purple and gold, flanked by an all-female military honor guard and wearing a sash created for her by female military officers, she gripped the bell rope and, as required of the ritual, shouted. Normally soft-spoken and measured, the tone was a shift for the climate scientist, who visibly trembled under the weight of the task, but not as big a shift as what she shouted:
“¡Mexicanas! ¡Mexicanos!”
The inclusion of the feminine “Mexicanas,” and naming them FIRST matters.

With 70% (!) of the vote.
Wow, this means the shelves at the liquor and cannabis stores can be re-filled. 😉
But seriously, good news, and congrats to the negotiators on both sides.

Mexico City is like a much better version of LA. You wonder what the US’s problem is?
huh. TIL: there is a “four corners” place in Canada, like there is more famously in the USA, where Utah, Colorado, Arizona and New Mexico meet.
But ours is automatically cooler, figuratively and literally*, because it is a: at 60° Latitude, and b: involves two Territories and two Provinces.
It is where the Northwest Territories, Nunavut, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba meet.
It is also a LOT harder to get to. Though arguably, as it is amongst the thousands of lakes in the area, during the summer, a float plane would get you there.
Also, technically. It is not a perfect “joining” on the map which is just bad planning on Canada’s part, but at least it is hiking distance. Or that might be just a projection issue. They seem to converge at 60N 102W. I guess I could consult an official boundary document or something :)
